I found the bones of the book was good but I ended up skim reading the last 1/3. The plot moved super fast and I would’ve enjoyed letting the story breath and for there to be more groundwork. Hard to convert a slow burn lover to something different.

I read the sequel to this book first and found For Butter or Worse a bit lacking. I didn't care as much about the leads growing romance and found it all a little blah.

I have tried to read this like 3 times and each time I do get a little further but each time it somehow gets worse and worse. I don’t get the chemistry. I have no investment in the plot. Not for me.

DNF. Even for a novella this got too hot and heavy too fast. Stopped around 50%. This wasn't even instalove just instaf*ck.

I wanted to like this book. I don't mind a MMC who can be commanding but this whole book (especially the subplot!!!!!) reeked of sexism. However not all blame
Is on him because this is a case of “everyone sucks here”.

This needs more readers! I stumbled across this on accident and I love love loved it. If romantasy mysteries had a chic lit sister, this book would be it. Shanna did an incredible job creating a world that felt fun, unique and captivating. I will read the next in the series.

Be forewarned - this book has a cliffhanger ending.

However, it is so worth the read. I find Nora's creativity really shines in books about everyday folks encountering things beyond the realm of possibility. I cannot wait to see where this trilogy takes me.

This book gives you a haunting feeling of unease but is a well written story that underneath all the fur is a picture of grief, unwanted change, and acceptance.

This book calls into the cozy mystery genre by my standards - short, fun, not too serious, with a dash of cute romance. These are great palette cleansers and perfect for when you're in a reading slump.

DNF at 34% - awkward mechanics, story line started to feel tired and overused for the genre, and characters weren't enough to make me want to keep reading.

Quickly summarized - incessant death attempts but nobody dies

I had high hopes because I enjoyed her other series but this just felt short, rushed and fell short of my expectations.

Intrigued to see where the story goes. I think I would have enjoyed this more in print vs the audiobook.

“And yeah he had taken things a little far but she hadn't exactly complained, she had gotten off - he hadn't. If anyone should be pissed off, it was him.”

All I have to say right now (because I just finished this book and it's almost midnight) is Team Sam.

Demon romances are just not for me. And I feel like this book was over just as it began.
