I loved the first book in this new series, and was very excited for this next one. I think it’s awesome that the pub date is Halloween too! This one was a little long for me, but it did stick really close to the Winston Brothers book it was a mirror universe world for.
I could honestly go back to my review of that book, Grin and Beard It, and almost write this review word for word. I loved Sonnet, she was funny, had some totally awkward traits for a beloved movie star like she was. And she was accepting of being a big curvy girl, and I loved the way she didn’t let anyone change her mind or make her feel bad in any way. How she stood up for herself and tried to set an example for others. Of course the fact that she wrote monster romances was perfect for this story too!
Then there was Maverick, once again I loved his sweetness and he pretty much was perfect in how he reacted to the way things went, although a few times his backing off did annoy me. I adored his inner wolf voice and the comments it made about all that was happening and what he did. He handled the ending problem in a perfect way, the spilling of the relationship by Sonnet before they’d planned.
I loved getting time with Ranger, the Cletus Winston-like Boone brother. And I have to say getting a banana cake queen that was a hummingbird cake queen instead? I’ve had hummingbird cake, and it is my absolute favorite cake, to me it is what they should call better than sex cake, because I have to savor every bite as a mouthful, so I get the way Sonnet reacted to it when she ate it.
Once again I am thinking this author is doing a wonderful job with her paranormal reimagining of one of my all time favorite contemporary romance series, and I am sooooooooo excited for the next one! Is it time for it yet? Please tell me it’s been greenlit!
