So very spicy, so very good. There were a scant few things that stopped it from being 5 stars for me…mostly there were times it felt a little repetitive (aside from the fact that it’s a compilation of stories that necessitated some repetition). It seemed like Mina was going over the same things in her head again and again and again and repeating the same tired lines that I found distracting and slightly annoying…which is a shame because I loved her as a character.
The ending was also a bit…anti-climatic. Like, obviously as a romance it has a HEA/HFN but like literally within 2 pages it was over, with very little build up. I also wish the mystery of the seraphs was revealed a little more (unless this is being revealed in later books but also why tease us like this! At least throw us a little bone, a little reveal?)
Other than that, all these characters were so great and lovable in their own sense. And the spicy scenes were soooo deliciously spicy. It was the perfect palate cleanser that I wanted after quite a few more emotionally dense reads.
