Enjoyed it a little less than the first. I think the first book had a better plot but this was still good! Loved Felix and Brie can’t wait for Dante’s book

I wouldn’t say it was predictable because I wasn’t trying to predict anything but when the twists happened I wasn’t exactly shocked if that makes sense. All in all there have been worse attempts at a plot to hide smut in

Super fun from start to finish! I devoured this all in one sitting partly because it was short but also because it was that good! Just the right amount of world building to get you interested in the series and a fun quest for two unlikely lovers that keeps you hooked. Will definitely be seated for the others in the series. My only complaint is small: I wished he was truly a demon and not a dragon instead. The book uses demon as an umbrella term which is fine I guess but if you say demon I’m expected satan spawn not a dragon lol

I think this was a really cute love story with some Romeo and Juliet influences without relying too heavily on shakespeare. These characters are their own lovable people that you can’t help but root for. I loved reading it and watching them get together. It took me a long while to get into it but that was my fault not the book’s. It got good pretty quickly once I focused on finishing it. Definitely give it a chance!!!

This was the slowest slow burn I’ve ever read and I’m starting to think I don’t actually like slow burns at all

it took a while to get to where it was going in my opinion. they spend a good portion on the bet that isn’t really a bet. I also thought the premise of this book would be a lot different. I thought they’d fall in love through emails and she would get hired to be his editor but they also end up meeting irl and falling in love that way without knowing they already know each other. I think I would’ve preferred that. so I went in expecting one thing and was a little disappointed when I didn’t get it but that’s on me. still cute tho. can’t wait for violet’s book

really rushed but it’s short so that’s kind of expected. I don’t think the story or the relationship was fleshed out enough to be enjoyable and the daddy kink was a huge miss for me

if you can get past the not so great world building in book one and two and three and also this one then maybe you’ll enjoy it. The plot is starting to outweigh the romance for me so I will be seated for book five plus the rest because I have to know how this nonsense ends. boo Hermes we hate you Hermes
