Short novella that intersects with the main world of the series, I liked it but for being so short there was a but that felt very explaining everything to you that got a little dry. Loved getting more Calliope though

OMG! Calliope has a kid! Who is also a psychopath! I have been wondering how she got involved with the Mulvaneys since the first book and now I know. Dmitri and Arlo were cute together and the cameos from the Mulvaneys were awesome! I can't wait to see how the ending of their novella fits in to the series.

I love this side story about Arlo and Dimitri.

It’s a quick short story that made me laugh. Although I will say for second I thought one of the two was gonna go to jail.

I can’t wait to see these two in the next book.

3/5 on the spice scale. Because it was a shorter book, the few sex scenes take up more of the book. And both men have dirty mouths.
