This time we get a FF combo with a human and naga. Loving the brief introduction to a new couple dynamic. We see another attack on the lovematch pairings and our group of friends grow as their love lives expand.

I love all the sex scenes in this book, they are super unique to this book and the hypno kink is done super tastefully.

TWs (+kinks): sexual content, vomit, kidnapping, injury, blood, snake-like monster (naga female), hypnokink, sensory depravation, whipping, spanking, bdsm, ex drama, praise kink, tail sex

As a WLW, I hate it when a WLW book disappoints me.

I lowkey hate it that the author decided to introduce the Lucifer-Barista plot. Like I'm here for monster porn, not plot and world building. Have them fuck each other sensless and go. I don't care about the rest.

And this book had the most side plot and Naomi and Ella just pining in the backgroud. I missed the smut... there was smut, but not as much as in first four books, let's say. The book really lacked the heat.

Eventually, I got to like Naomia and Ella. They were sort of really cute. But it was definitely the worst one out of all the books in the series so far in my opinion.

i freaking love these novellas but i stg i am going to die from the trixie and barista tension
