Notes:
The MMCs are all big caveman sweathearts, completely googoo about the FMC, obsessed with her, keeping her safe and sexually sated.
The world building is not all that detailed.
The focus is on the MCs relationship and little is knowing about what is going on in the rest of the world (human or supernatural) because all the action is centered on the MCs. The plot is mainly with them hiding in remote places or with little interaction with others, establishing their mate bonds and fighting off 2 or 3 witches that are always after them.
Instinctive use of powers: no learning curve, little development, no teaching moments.
Not a fan of the writer always mentioning the FMC's age, especially if her behaviour wasn't all that coherent with it.
While full of sexy scenes, the connections felt a bit too rushed and detached. The emotional scenes were all a bit too sexual.
Repetitive scenes/dialogue regarding the FMC's doubts, self doubts and thinking the MMCs couldn't want her. I am not saying the FMC shouldn't have felt that way, I am just pointing out the way the scenes were presented felt repetitive.
