An absolutely precious follow-up to The Charm Offensive. Feels like a warm hug wrapped in a slightly itchy Christmas sweater.

It really had me in the beginning as being extremely cookie cutter and like the rest of Hazelwood's work. Which, it is, but it also had me on the edge of my seat. Was I also screaming at Bee for being am idiot basically the whole book? Yeah. But that's nothing new for me when it comes to romance books.

I know a lot of people had issues with this one (I see you, twitter discourse), but I enjoyed it overall. Though do I agree that all the male leads are basically carbon copies of each other in some form or fashion? 100%. Are they giants with large dicks? Absolutely. Weirdos in bed? Yup. (That's also coming from a sex-repulsed asexual, so take it with a grain or five of salt.)

This books is such a nice marriage of fantasy, western, and romance. Not exactly genres I'd have thought would go well together, but it kept me on my toes the whole time! Definitely a contender for top 5 reads of the year, for sure!

Perfect World, Volume 10 by Rie Aruga

This was my least favorite volume because it was so fertility heavy. I don't enjoy reading about pregnancy. Love this series, but I mostly skimmed this volume.
