I'm completely digging this new series! We have a kick-butt heroine saving the day with her mainly female team. A hot-tempered, but otherwise lovable chef, who has co problems being saved by a girl. A blended team of specialists taking on various cryptids (myths and legends to you and me).
Vee has essentially grown up inside an organisation that fights all the things that go bump in the night, and possibly a few who don't have a problem with daylight. Her little team is her family and she would lay down her life for them or any human that comes face to face with something that they really should not have to face. But after a rare night out celebrating she has to rescue a drunk human from a fate worse than a quick death.
Bruce is a wunderkind in the kitchen but his people skills are sadly...lacking. He manages t fire himself from his last job and goes off to drown his sorrows. But before he can even tie one on, he gets ruffied by...something. Next thing he knows he's waking up at home and trying to make sense of what went on the night before. But the baddies have it in for Bruce and he's soon up to his neck in trouble of the supernatural kind.
Totally got immersed in this great new world. You do kind of see things from Bruce's perspective - he's really not keen on the way the company scoops up orphans to train or that families are essentially kept apart but he can't deny that they are needed. Vee is the kinda girl you want in your corner. She takes her job seriously but her team is her top priority. Bruce fits in quite nicely, taking on the kind or caretaker role. And, ahem, alone time with Vee is a total added benefit.
#BruceTheBastard totally fits LOL
