The book is fine.
Nick is the worst love interest I’ve read in a while. He was over protective, bossy, and positive (not in a cute way). He crosses the line into toxic masculinity but it’s ok because he has dimples. The characters try too hard to be funny and I rolled my eyes more than once. But overall it was an easy read; very little romance and the story moved for how long the book was.

I really loved this book. It’s not as spicy as some of her other books and Wendy come across a little young compared to her 25 years but overall great.

I loved how the first two books of the series were interwoven because I was not seeing the big picture.

Short, Sweet, and just enough of the original lore to keep you searching.

I devoured this. Such a fun spin on a classic story. It felt new and fresh while keeping the classic story details. There were monsters, spice, and two happily ever afters.

Why did this make me cry so much….
Juliette and Rupert are not her most fleshed out couple but it worked. I loved the feminine rage and Juliette as a whole.
