I'm calling it. DNF @52%
I was SO optimistic going in to this one and I held on to the hope with all of my might but alas - this book sucks.
I was really intrigued by the world because in a way it's kinda similar to ACOTAR except in this book there's the fae lands, obv separate from the middle lands where humans and fae as well as other creatures live. And then I believe just a human land? I can't remember.
╰┈➤ The FMC - Flea (I know 🙄) is a changeling and has been raised by a very cruel woman who has abused and treated her terribly. The guardian only wants to get her real and biological daughter back but ends up getting killed for getting slick with a member of The Hunt (a group of 'wild' fae that come to trade in the middle lands once a year)
Anyhow, alone and with no way to pay the bills etc - Flea is forced to work for her land lord who owns a pleasure house.
This is where she happens to meet a king of one of the kingdoms in the fae lands because he owns the place and was intrigued by her - because of course he was.
So they make a deal, because of course they do and basically winnow off to the fae lands. Now, I was really trying to hang in there to see what was going to happen but both MC's are INSUFFERABLE.
╰┈➤ The MMC does nothing but order her around, eat her out and tell her to sit on his lap. Oh and alternate between calling her creature or butterfly 24/7.
╰┈➤ She does nothing but act like a dumb and spineless idiot.
👏🏻 THERE 👏🏻 IS 👏🏻 NO 👏🏻SUBSTANCE 👏🏻
The plot never seemed to move along, if it did, it's slower than a snail's pace and the pages were just filled with insignificant shit so I'm giving up.
“You will wish for nothing, butterfly. You will have every comfort you need, including the protection of my court in your precious search for this home you desire. Just be mindful that should you find whatever that might be...” Flurries emerged, his words a cold and overt warning. “You will belong only to me.”
"Sweetest creature..." His lips curved and he closed the spaced between us to whisper against my mouth. "No one's intentions for you are more wicked than my own."

Oh, that's good to know! And thank you! 🌷 💗I'm going to check it out. I've had two of her books on my tbr for a while. The Wolf and the Wildflower and The Savage and The Swan. I've yet to get to them, have you read those? Any good if you have?

LOL. Probably going to DNF it. The story isn't progressing. And I'm over it.

LMAO way to get ahead of the comments babe haha. I got busy at work and couldn't update it yet. It's going to be my second DNF today most likely.

Yeah, both were like caricatures- at least up until halfway through the book but I don't see them being fleshed out in the second half.

Thank you babes - I'm finishing up Fire & Blood now which will be a 5 star - hopefully I will have one after that too! 💙

I know... lol. It started out well and I was enjoying it, until I wasn't lol. My updates had been very optimistic. I got bored quick when things didn't progress and the story wasn't being fleshed out. Sigh, I think I'll avoid that JLA book then lol. I've been on the fence with that one as you know but ugh I don't think so right now. 😅

I thought I was replying to another review lmao. This one is a hot mess but I think it depends on what you want out of a romantasy - I still need major fantasy elements personally and not all spice.

You may like it - I'm certainly the od..."
i'm in the same boat when it comes to romantasy. i find too much spice takes away from the fantasy world building element.

You may like it -..."
Yes, exactly! This was some kind of spice way too often and it takes away from the fantasy element as well as from the character building - like we get it she's wants the D so bad and he constantly wants to make her scream his name. Got that down, now what?

Thank you though! 🩷

I've had a couple recently. I think I've got a couple of winners going currently though so that's a plus. Thank you babes! 🩷🩷
