I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! I thought it was gonna be trashy romance but it was actually a highly entertaining urban fantasy with slow burn romance. And it was funny at times!

Cover photo is more steamy than the book. Cover gives the impression that the book is strong on steamy, but it is actually a good fantasy book. The few stramy scenes are clothes on.

The prose doesn't always flow well,  and character descriptions are odd at times. It takes a while for the plot to start moving.
