Okay…a rom-com fantasy!?! What! Yes!!! Please give me more of this. I’m not big into rom-com though I read this genre occasionally when I need a pick-me-up. THIS! I adored all of it. From the meet-cute to the epilogue.

I was shocked at first by the contemporary language and the modern world-building within a traditional fantasy setting. Every other fantasy I’ve read, even urban fantasy, is written in more traditional language. The author’s choice to go with ultra-contemporary speech was brilliant! I don’t talk like Cin, but I know people who do, and I immediately felt like I knew her.

Actually, she had me at the first line: “I had only two things on my mind; cheese and how to get home.” This girl gets it! I absolutely adored Cin. And my favorite thing about her is that she doesn’t spend the entire book fighting her feelings. She resists a little bit, as any girl would do. But what else are you supposed to do while on a deadly adventure with a demon who you can’t help but fall for?

“I can be your villain. Why don’t you let me take away the burden of choice for a while?” Anyone here like morally gray? Fallon is your man. I just want to point out that when the spice gets started, it is fire. No sweet kisses and cute little endearments. These guys mean business. And I ate all of it up.

That being said, please check the content warnings if you have any triggers.

I cannot wait to read everything Kimberly has written and to see where this journey goes next.
