Not my kind of romance

This book has absolutely no plot. I was hoping for a trashy vampire smut book, but I fully expected there to be a plot as well. The first 150 pages are orgy scene after orgy scene. The author will write 2-3 sentences of the loosest plot ever and then another in depth orgy. The sex scenes were really fun at first, but lost their luster because there were SO many of them. I may try to finish this later, but I just have no interest currently.

nah cause this was educational

miss katee knows how to write some spice…like my god this book had me blushing

it’s been a hot minute since i’ve read anything fantasy, and i’d heard lots about this book, so i thought why not give it a go

it’s 3 novellas combined, which i liked a lot…it was a quick read, easy to follow the plot

if i’m being brutally honest, it was what the bonded series wanted to be but couldn’t deliver…i knew so many people who loved that series, but i could never get into it…it just dragged on…but this book did what that series wanted to do in 1/6 as many pages

a fun read

The plot is a bit iffy, but the spice more than makes for for it.

If you are looking for a super spicy MMMF vampire/supernatural story with the absolute thinnest possible plot stringing together explicit sex scenes then this is the book for you! 

I cannot in good conscience give this higher than 2 stars because the closest we get to a plot across 500-ish pages is:
SpoilerMina’s father hates her and gives her to a sexy vampire stuck in his house as a blood source and sex toy. Two other sexy vampires show up. She breaks the ward on the house with a powerful orgasm to allow them all to leave because she’s actually part seraph. They’re on the run and bonded together. Her father captures the vampires. She meets a monster hunter who makes a deal with a demon to free them. She gets pregnant and kills her father, making her the new leader of their vampire clan.

But it is very sexy and sometimes that’s all you need. Serious content warnings (see below) although I think anyone with these triggers can read the summary and know this isn’t for them. 

Content warnings:
Blood, Gore, Injury Detail
SpoilerThree of the characters are vampires so this is self explanatory. They fight, the share blood, etc.

Murder
Spoiler Mina brings 3 men to the vampires for them to feed on after their escape from her father, Mina murders her father

Pregnancy
Spoiler The trio and Mina are actively trying to get her pregnant so she can become her father’s heir, she does become pregnant but there’s no graphic birth scenes

Rape
SpoilerThis is mostly dubious consent at the beginning, there’s a scene where Mina goes to a bar looking for people to feed the 3 vampires and some men drug her drink in an attempt to sexually assault her but she only pretends to be drugged and knocks them out to bring them to the vampires

Sexual Content
SpoilerDuh

Violence
SpoilerSee: blood, gore, injury detail & murder

Vomit
Spoiler morning sickness

Very good book!!! The beginning and a lot of other parts definitely give reverse harem beauty and the beast vibes which was interesting!
Spoiler I loved both Malachi and Wolf throughout the whole book! Kind of like Mina Rylan took some getting used to, by the end I could take him or leave him honestly…the storyline of Mina finding her powers and stuff was cool! I definitely liked the first and second parts better than the third…I didn’t love that the boys were taken and her getting them back and fighting her dad I just wasn’t all that invested by that point…I also didn’t love the random characters that kept popping in to save the day (Azazel, Grace, Lizzie…) like they just felt extra…overall liked the book though!
