Still in my reading series era. The second book in the Mead Mishap series. The book with the funniest but longest ass title in existence. This installment follows Cinnamon's best friend Brie who is a cheesemaker. We start with Cinnamon and Brie in the local tavern with the locals and the newly free demons. Brie is basically being harrassed by a guy named Jack who just won't leave her the hell alone. We find out why he wants her so badly. He owns the land next to hers and he is also a get rich quick scheme kind of dude who is a con man.
He basically gets her a drink and right from the very beginning, red flags are being flown. You never take a drink from a dude. She is sick and tired of his shit and she yeets the drink at him. He moves out of the way very quickly and the drink lands on our other main character who is also Cinnamon's best demon friend Felix. Thats where the title comes in. But it is a lot more complicated than that because Felix is a werewolf and immediately upon seeing Brie, he imprints on her making her his fated mate.
The whole story is basically Brie denying the imprinting and trying to reverse the love potion that was meant for her and the disgusting Jack. We have another main plot line where girls are being taken and the locals are blaming the demons. The demons help search for the women and we get a group that is basically straight out of The Handmaid's Tale.
There were funny times in this but the main plot was serious and there were more steamy scenes, but they didn't seem as realistic as the ones in the first book. I still give the a 5 out of 5 stars but I am wondering if my rating will drop in the future because as I was starting to write this review, I had to go back to the beginning of the book and remember how it started.
