Cute story. 2 things I hated though. Didn’t realize it’s a series and I wouldn’t get my HEA from this one book. Second one of the love interests
Spoiler was with other women after meeting the heroine
 
Just not my thing in a book so while I did get through the whole thing, I won’t be reading further in the series

A witch, a vampire & a werewolf walk into a bar…

I got this book during “Stuff Your Kindle Day” & got it without knowing anything about it. It has an interesting storyline & was a fun short read. It left on a HUGE cliffhanger so I will be definitely reading the next book. Although there are many flaws in this book & it definitely needs some revision. There’s some miss labeled POV’s, inconsistencies in the storyline & many repeated scenes. 2.5/5

Definitely needed another round of editing. There were some plot holes and grammar errors. Even one part it had Luka as the POV but then it was being told from Quinn’s POV. A little confusing.

Big grammar mistakes; mistitled chapters and wrong perspectives. A short book, breezy easy to read, and definitely a story that could have been expanded with more detail and more time given to each characters arc. We're not given enough time with them before the book ends. The plot was an interesting premise but it could have been a standalone. Cliffhanger was a pain. This book I got for free, and the rest of the series I'll buy for free too.

I purchased this book because I’m a bit tired of reading about just-turned 18 year old shenanigans. So I thought this was gonna be like the movies ‘Forty-year-old virgin’ and ‘Never been kissed’ meets fantasy romance. You know, funny, light-hearted, with a healthy dash of romance, and some spice because why not. But no, just no …
Everything about the book falls flat. The characters and the world building are not fleshed out — everything (including the ‘not-like-other-girls’ main character) is very superficial. The male leads literally don’t have a reason to like her. No one’s motivations are explained or justified and everything occurs over the course of like eight days. You can’t tell me you’ve spent twenty years in hiding just to throw your whole life away because two handsome dudes rock up at your doorstep. This feels like the first draft of a book, not the final piece. It reads like bad fan fiction (I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the book was inspired by twilight). 
There were several grammatical and typesetting issues, some sentences don’t even make sense, and the scenes feel disjointed and rushed. I won’t even say the book ends on a cliffhanger, because it really just feels like the author just couldn’t be bothered writing anymore so just stopped.
Even if you buy this thinking you’re gonna get some smut-filled fantasy … you’re not (sorry to disappoint). Granted, I paid $1.50 for it so needless to say I got my money’s worth :( 
The only reason this didn’t get zero is because there where some slightly funny scenes that made me exhale from my nose.
