I enjoyed this one even more than the first. Felix is a golden retriever hero. He and Brie were hilarious. This is spicy and funny with some action and a little mystery. 

You should definitely read the first one as well as the novella that is set before this one to understand certain things and characters that make appearances.

Another very fun read by Kimberly Lemming! A laugh outloud monster romance , I think I enjoyed book 2 even more than book 1. Gotta love Felix and Brie!

This book was a little underwhelming compared to the first, and the banter wasn't as funny. It was like Brie was the same as Cinnamon, except her quips were cheese themed instead of spice themed. It would have been nice to have their personalities and dialogue a little more distinct. 

Again, the conflict resolution felt rushed and I felt there was a bit of the miscommunication trope (sort of, don't let it deter you; it does make sense in this scenario, it was just very mildly irksome) but I still enjoyed the romance between Brie and Felix. 

I can't judge a short book too harshly for moving everything along quickly, even if it's a little too quickly, so the main reason I didn't give a better rating is because this book didn't feel different enough from the first book. It needed to have its own uniqueness to keep it from feeling boring and like it's basically just rehashing the same plot/conflict. 

It sounds like the 3rd book is a bit different, but I won't be reading it right away. I think I would have liked this second book better if I would have read some other books in between, maybe, so I'm hoping that will be the case if I wait a bit to read the 3rd book.

I liked Felix in the first book so this was fun to read! Brie is a great character. I think a little more character development would have been nice. But it was a good time just like the first one!

Golden retriever MMC energy (not just because he is a werewolf). This one requires a little suspension of disbelief because the Big Bad is a little weird, but as long as you just go with it you will have a great time. This FMC, best friend of the FMC from the first book, shares the energy of not wanting to get involved in crazy things like creepy voices calling “hello” from the woods at night. Just keep walking. 

That energy and the love and appreciation of cheese is relatable. Be sure to read the novella Mistlefoe between book one and book two unless you want to be confused by a talking no-longer-inanimate object. 
 
Due to a spell mishap there is a brief tentacle spicy scene, but like I said, just go with it
