scriptrix 's review for:

The Sorceress and the Incubus by Mallory Dunlin
5.0

HOT DAMN this was good. Whew. Okay. Let me just--

This was exactly what my brain needed on several levels. The hurt/comfort was soul-healingly fluffy and beautiful. The care this couple had for each other's consent and for being ethical in what could have been a power imbalance situation, just, ugh, PERFECT.

The plot? Amazing. Hugely tense stakes that directly played into the characters' traumas and relationship barriers. 

The spice? HOT and yet somehow slow burn. Can it be slow burn if they're getting each other off from different rooms because they're telepathically linked? I say yes it can. 

Ah and speaking of the telepathy element! I admit I have a low key telepathy kink. I LOVE that dynamic in a romance, and this was one of the best examples I've read in a while. I loved both Saker and Rain immensely and rooted for them to get together so hard. 

It's only just February and this might have already made my top ten for the year. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could.
