🌶️🌶️🌶️ 3 Spice

I finished reading this last night… or would it be classified as this morning if it was like 4:30 in the morning? Lol.

Please always read your triggers when starting a spicy book to make sure there is nothing inside that might upset you. You see, I might have sort of not read them and just rushed right in.

I was a massive fan of the author's other series that I read, which was the The Spider's Mate Trilogy. That series was amazing. I also read the first two books in the Vrix series and I am still waiting for the third book.

This book was a mix of super cozy, quirky, and amusing. Our MMC Zevris is trying to blend in and complete a mission, and it all starts to go sideways from the introduction. He is super funny. His inner monologue had me smiling and totally pulled into the book.

When we meet the FMC Tabitha, who is just super lovely but sadly has low self-esteem, it made me a little sad because she is described as so beautiful. She also has a pretty sad past.

For a little while, I was happily skipping along through the story and then BANG, something happens in the book, and the pacing suddenly speeds up. I do not want to give anything away, but if this book had not been such a lighthearted, slightly weird story, I might have had big problems with the MMC's plan. Thankfully, he does realise what he was doing was not great, which helped a lot because I still wanted to enjoy the hot spice in the book.

The end felt a little rushed, and sadly, the relationship did not really feel like love to me. It felt more like lust or wanting. But overall, it was still a fun read.
