A succubus, a priest, and an angel walk into a bar ;) Not really, but almost. Such a great exploration of faith and love and finding trust in someone that initially could be an enemy.

surprisingly funny, speedrace steam, and sacrilege.

the plot of this book was deada$$ hard to follow. more than once, i legit worried that i might have started in the middle of a series.

if you can just overlook the holes and some of the more confusing aspects/pacing and let your imagination fill in the rest, give it a spin. this is a spicy, silly, fluffy standalone that made me LOL IRL.

the characters have juuuuust enough depth to keep you interested and aside from her slightly trope-tastic personality the heroine is lovable && sassy && good.

the guys (help i literally forgot their names ☠️☠️☠️) are all at different levels of character development but if you’re not expecting a 7,000 page in depth saga then just glooooossss on over til you get to the next spicy scene. you won’t have to go far

Funny and emotional. I really liked how the relationship came about as it wasn't easy and they had to get over themselves. It is a truly interesting world and I'd love to learn more or read another book in this world. It is post-apocalyptic with demons roaming. It is slightly religious as the heroes are priests and there are angels. So, keep that in mind going in.

There are some deeper and sadder moments, but also lighter one that made me laugh. It is a really good mix.

PLSSS WHY WAS THIS SO LONG. I know I was obsessed with Rooksgrave Manor but this just didn't do anything for me.

At first I was like alright. I can dig a succubus / angel / priest romance but it quickly got SO tiring. They quickly jump to screwing and then acted like such goof asses after like ?? They were so immature and horny for what!! They see hot succubus and are like he he tit like... I just wanted the book to end but they really just kept going.

Then there was like 5 people in this relationship but it could have been 3 because all three priests were basically the same. At one point I was more interested in this post apocalyptic world being overrun by demons but then we just had to go back to them doing the sexy sex and how hot, sexy, and hungry the succubus was.

So much potential (but also not really).

This was good! I liked that it wasn't typical to most reverse harem stories I've read and didn't have everyone together in one big relationship and instead had a few separate relationships between the members of the group that were intertwined. The relationships and the story were largely enjoyable and fun, and the writing was good.

I did not care for how the FL began talking like a modern day teen/20something about 1/2 way through (which was called out by one of the MLs) when she had been trapped in hell for thousands of years. Why would she talk like a stereotypical "sassy" and "empowered" character, especially when she hadn't talked that way earlier in the story? It's an odd shift that happens pretty suddenly and doesn't make sense. Other than that though, a nice read!!!

Awesome concept, poor execution. 

Note that there are 5 people in this polycule, not just the three on the cover.

This is definitely very sacrilegious, but that didn't bother me at all. I mean, you can't read a book with priests and a succubus without expecting that.

What did bother me was the immediate insta-love to slow relationship building that again changed over night into love with each relationship. And the relationships didn't feel even at all. We spend like the first half of the entire book with only one relationship developed between the FMC and who I'll call MMC1. Then as soon as the next relationship develops between MMC1 and MMC2 and the FMC, we get a ton of scenes or mentions in passing of MMC 1 and MMC2, and the FMC is never involved again on page except to watch. Then the relationship between the FMC and MMC3 develops over night when he was previously pushing her away. Then lots of MMC1 and MMC2 with the FMC just being the token supportive character. Then the FMC and MMC4 get together to power up for battle but they realize they love each other too lol. They have a few moments, then there's a huge group scene after the battle where MMC1 and MMC2 are pretty much doing their thing but also including the others. And then an epilogue 100 years later where MMC3, the FMC, and MMC4 are together while the other two are again off together doing their own thing. There was a huge build up to MMC2 and MMC4 becoming a couple in the book, and they hardly seemed to care by the time it briefly happened (in the big group scene only). And the FMC was just there for whoever needed her for sex or for moral support. 

Also annoyed that none of them groveled at all for the way they treated her in the first half of the book, for the way they dismissed her when they started believing her but the angel showed up to make them doubt her again, or even for the way they acted when pushing her away. She's just eternally understanding, and takes them all as lovers soon as they finally decide they want her. Eh. Grow a backbone.

This had the bones of such a good world where demons have caused an apo alypse on earth, and a succubus and and a fallen angel show up to one of the last refuges for humans, both becoming temptations for the priests in charge. But none of it was utilized for anything other than finding more reasons for more smut. I went into this knowing it was basically just smut, but couldn't help myself wanting a more fleshed out story.

Why does an inhabitant of Hell talk like a college sophomore?

There's a good chance this book would be right up my alley (there's a reason I downloaded it and wanted to read it) but one of the main characters shares a name with one of my close friends, and it's not a very common name, and that got to be very weird very fast so I had to quit.
