That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Human by Kimberly Lemming is the third book in the Mead Mishaps series and it's just as fun as the first two books in the series. 

This book is about Cherry, the long lost sister of Cinnamon, Cinnamon is the the main character from the first book. Cherry was abducted 5 years prior by something that lives in the lake on the edge of her small town, so the story opens up with her stuck in a tower. Cherry gets rescued by Dante, a dragon shifter who happens to be friends with the main characters of book one and book two. 

Cherry has been kidnapped once already, she doesn't feel like she can trust Dante because he happens to know the entity that kidnapped Cherry the first time! Cherry thinks that there's no way that Dante will aid her escape so she uses some local mushrooms to drug Dante. Dante, in his drugged state, bites Cherry and a dragon bite means that they're now formally (or informally) mated to one another. They then set off on a journey to get Cherry home BUT Cherry refuses to tell Dante directly where she's from, because she's afraid that he's not friendly after all. 

This story was romantic, funny, gory, surprising, and just down right entertaining! If you like paranormal romance, fantasy romance, humor, and smut, then this is for you!

The whole beginning of the story was messy, with the drugging and the no consensual biting. At one point Dante puts his face in  Cherry's crotch without permission because he thinks that's how to woo a human woman. I had to knock half a star off for all the non consent and funny business shit.

Overall, I really enjoyed this novel! This is one of my favorite romance series. I'm giving this 4.5 stars out of 5
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4.5/5 Stars

That time I picked a book based on the title alone and fell in love with a whole series...

I was so glad when this book finally came out! It's even funnier than the first two books in the series and the spicy scenes are just as hot! 

Cherry and Dante had me laughing out loud from the very beginning. Their escapades were quite heroic and Dante's wooing was very sweet. I enjoyed they way they were both written, even if their relationship develops super fast. 

I especially liked the ending. 🖤 I really hope there are more books in the pipelines because I can't get enough of this world!
