This is a decision I am sure to regret the second she comes to the first scene and realizes how fucked in the head I am (hey, Alexa, play Champagne Problems by Taylor Swift). Oi!įor some reason, I am making the severe mistake of loaning my mother these books. Ten Thousand Years Can Give You Such a Crick in the Neck. This is a queen considering whether or not to treat with an enemy.”

“This is not a victim rushing to meet her savior. “A princess locked in a tower is only kept away from the world for one reason: it has nothing to do with her safety and everything to do with her perceived value.” “What's the point of possessing a rare desert flower if no one knows it exists?” “To everyone out there who prefers the villains to the heroes.” Overall it was a perfect mix of dark fantasy with just enough romance to make the sensitive topics more comfortable for the reader. Also loved the use of the safe word and the way it connected this story with the original source material. I felt this book dealt with the CNC kink in a very careful way and made it clear of Jasmines consent throughout the story, leaving absolutely no nuisance for it to be interpreted differently. Having said that I thoroughly enjoyed this book for what it was and definitely plan on continuing working my way through the wicked villains series, Hades and Meg have me very interested in their story and I can’t wait to read ‘learn my lesson’ very soon. I really would have enjoyed reading more of their banter and seeing that true enemies to lovers trope though I know this isn’t the authors style.

While this book has more plot than other books I have read by katee robert (a touch of taboo series) there is no mistaking it is erotica.įor me, I definitely could have used some more of Jasmine and Jafars backstory to flesh out the story a lot more and buildup to the smut. If you go into reading this expecting smut then that is what you’ll get. Nice bit of erotica with a decent amount of plot but don’t expect anything more than that.
