Three Swedish Mountainmen is exactly the kind of book you pick up when you want something easy, fun, and spicy without too many surprises. 

It’s an easy read, perfect for when you’re in the mood for something lighthearted and quick. I really enjoyed the crossover universe with Lily Gold’s other books - it added a little extra charm if you're already familiar with her world. 

The plot definitely takes some liberties with realism for the sake of the spice... but honestly, that’s kind of the point. You’re not reading this for complex worldbuilding or intricate storytelling; you’re reading it for the fantasy, the humour, and the relationships. The mix of grumpy and golden retriever-type characters worked really well, giving a nice dynamic between the leads. 

It’s not groundbreaking - and it's predictably sweet and spicy - but you know exactly what you’re getting, and that's part of the comfort. Sometimes, that's exactly the kind of book you need.
