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.

If you don't like tentacles in your sexy scenes, then you may want to avoid this one. There is one scene that has magical tentacles.druzyquartz's review against another edition

That Time I Got Drunk and Yeeted a Love Potion at a Werewolf is the second book in the Mead Mishaps series by Kimberly Lemming. It was just as cute as the first book, I really enjoyed it.
This book starts off with our main character, Brie (who is a cheesemaker), she's at a party with her best friend Cinnamon (the same Cinnamon who was the main character of book 1!) and they're getting drunk and having a nice time. Well, they were trying to have a nice time. There's a man who keeps asking Brie out on a date and he won't take no for an answer.
After Brie and this asshole argue back and forth for a bit, the man apologizes and tries to offer her a drink. Brie doesn't want to take it, but the pushy man insists! So, Brie grabs the drink and tries to throw it at him, but he dodges the drink and it hits and unsuspected person BEHIND HIM! This wouldn't be such a big deal if it were just a drink, but it turns out that it's a love potion. The person struck with the love potions name is Felix, he turns around and the first person he sees is Brie and he instantly falls in love.
After that, a hilarious and sweet story happens and it's just so good. I really recommend this series for anyone who likes romance, spice/erotica, and sweet scenes.
I would give this 5 stars but there was one thing I didn't like so I'm knocking off .5 stars. While Felix and Brie are visiting Cinnamon and Fallon, Felix is telling them thathe and Brie are officially married, and that they were discussing how many kids they might want to have . Brie is embarrassed that Felix won't stop talking about this so she attempts to hit him, repeatedly. She does not hit him, but the fact that she attempted to really pissed me off. Hitting people isn't acceptable unless you're protecting yourself or your loved ones. I'm honestly tried of seeing the trope of "women hitting their partners" or "women hitting men". It's not okay and writing that little bit in just reinforces this idea that hitting your partner/a person for any old reason is okay.
The spice in this was nice, I'm giving this 4 chilies out out 5 chilies 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️worth of spice.
Overall this novella was cute, I'm giving this 4.5 stars out of 5

Fun, but it was missing the narrative thrust of the previous book. I kept forgetting about the big conflict when there wasn't focus on it because it was treated more like a subplot.

I stopped reading one of my current reads to pick this up because I had the strongest craving for Kimberly Lemming and I NEEDED to read this book.
The craving is satisfied and I was reminded, not that I forgot but still, how much I love this author, their writing style, this world, and these characters. It is SO MUCH FUN. I freaking loved it and I am absolutely going to pick up the last couple books soon because a new one is coming out soon.
The best magical, hilarious, sexy, quick, easy read. I bow down to the Queen that is Kimberly.

first of all…
that was so much!! definitely not as gorey or action packed as the first installment in this series but we had a good a share of both anyway.
the love potion aspect really made me hesitant though. there truly was no way to tell if she was his mate or if it was his love potion drunk eyes telling him that. he was utterly devoted to her, of course, but he was also manic so i took all his thoughts with a grain of salt.
brie was lovely. her commitment issues really spoke to my heart. its hard to trust someone with your heart after others barely want to deal with your mind. im glad she realized felix wasn’t going to be like that. even without the love potion, i think he would’ve acted much of the same with/about her really. they were good together.
a talking flying sword? SIGN ME UP!!
i also give this 🌶🌶🌶 out of 5. i wish there was a little more smut.

I am LOVING this series and I'm astonished to see the authors writing skills progress so quickly! I absolutely love the world the author has created and the characters in it.
I do wish the books were longer though, I feel with about 200 pages I'm just not getting enough.
I hope in the next book the author publishes will be Dantes story!
