Okayโ€ฆa rom-com fantasy!?! What! Yes!!! Please give me more of this. Iโ€™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 Iโ€™ve read, even urban fantasy, is written in more traditional language. The authorโ€™s choice to go with ultra-contemporary speech was brilliant! I donโ€™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: โ€œI had only two things on my mind; cheese and how to get home.โ€ This girl gets it! I absolutely adored Cin. And my favorite thing about her is that she doesnโ€™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 canโ€™t help but fall for?


โ€œI can be your villain. Why donโ€™t you let me take away the burden of choice for a while?โ€ 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.
