Saved by Your Hot Book Boyfriend

by Cyan Skye

He craves your blood. You need his protection. He's a powerful demigod imprisoned in an ancient book. You're a mortal with a desperate wish.

Now the blazing hot vampire-demigod is bound to you by magic. Literally. There's a glowing handcuff on your wrist, and you're locked to this grumpy demigod with a thirst for your blood until you can set him free.

But the more you get to know your handsome, dangerous demigod, the less you find yourself wanting to let him go.

Saved by Your Hot Book Boyfriend is a spicy stand alone vampire paranormal romance featuring the forced proximity trope, where you're the FMC and he's the dangerously handsome MMC. It was originally published on Kindle Vella as a reader-directed choose-your-own-romance story where readers voted in polls for what happened next, so please note that the pacing will feel more episodic than a standard novel.

This is not an interactive book, but it is immersive, where YOU are the main female character. Featuring dual+ POV with your parts written in second-person, a wild ride with lots of banter and adventure, and steamy scenes with lots of spice, longing, and dirty talk.

Genres: Paranormal Romance, Forced Proximity, Vampires, Enemies To Lovers

I got the ARC for this book, but I also had the privilege of participating in the original "choose your own romance" version of this story on Kindle Vella. It was a ton of fun and the author did a fantastic job transitioning it to a full book. The transitions are smooth between chapters, so you'd never know they were originally written as a question! June and Z are hilarious together and the jaded and grumpy male lead contrasts great with the innocent sunshine of the female lead. June is not the most competent person in the world but she is not the type to let that stop her from trying anyway and that's empowering to read too. Z's steady and inevitable decline into respect and love for her is a delicious slide into their happily ever after. I definitely recommend this if you don't mind some spice in your romance, though I didn't find the spice overwhelming by any means, so it might be worth just skimming those bits so you can still read the story, honestly. I think it's worth it, personally. Looking forward to reading more by this author!

Loved being apart of this story during the writing process with Kindle Vella\Inkitt. Reading it a second time is even better!!

Thank you for the ARC copy.

You will not be disappointed with June and Ziros dual POV with 2nd person as you. Giving a fully immersive experience of the story.

This is exactly how I’d love to have a book boyfriend dropped into my lap! 🫦

FMC was incredible irritating but was overall a good read!

[Megs: Knee Wall Reads · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was a breath of fresh air. It's written in 2nd person (as well as 1st person for the other POVs), so you are fully immersed in the story acting as one of the main characters. It's swoony, lighthearted, full of adventure and danger and there is a hot book boyfriend to save you.

This story has so many of my favorite tropes and exactly how I would imagine if all of a sudden a mysterious hot book boyfriend appeared in our real world. Very entertaining.

This was almost a DNF but I’m not a quitter. After I started reading it I realized it was a Kindle Velle turned book and it was very episodic like that. So just when things started moving, the story jerked to a stop. The author could have smoothed this out before turning into a book but didn’t. The main character was also very immature … this is more geared towards YA audiences and except for the blood sucking and sex.

Please note: I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

This is the first full novel I have read from this author, as I was introduced to her writings via Vella. This was the first book I have read in recent times where 'You," the reader, are the FMC. Though at first uncertain if I liked the setup like this, I quickly won over.

Based on current times, 'you', the FMC, have lived a perfectly ordinary life until you visit a mysterious bookstore. Soon after, your life will never be the same! Due to the way the book was set up as choose your own path, sometimes the chapters ended sooner than I would have liked or were a little choppy. However, the author does an excellent job of writing a story that soon sucks you right into the story. The MMC Ziros is too cute! I love that he never mistreats (us), and while not always on board with the situation, he always puts her first...even though he lies to himself about the reasons LOL. I will definitely be picking up other books by this author and highly recommend this be added to your TBR list!

This is my first book from Sky since it's an ebook format instead of serial story!

Since this story was reformatted to be a book, reading it is a little different. I appreciated the note page explaining that since not everyone has experienced reading webtoons, serial stories, or things that are a little different than a traditional plotted book.

That being said, I don't know how long it took for this story to be completed. While reading it, it was fun to see when the story changed and kind of took a completely new turn. It must have been really shocking to read it as weekly episodes.

Written in 2nd person, You go on this adventure. Book Boyfriend is a very lovable demon/vampire/monster that is there with you.

I'm sad that the platform for posting a story like this is gone, but I appreciate all the time that went into making a community Q&A story into this fun read. I am excited to read more from Sky, especially Stolen Bride of the Fae King!

Keep reading...

I was super unsure about the POV of this book because, let's be honest it was my first time reading a book like this. HOWEVER, I love June and Z banter and pretty much everything about them. I also enjoyed the suspense of not knowing the supernatural abilities of the different people until further into their story. Overall I rate this is a 10/10. I would definitely pick up book 2 if there was one

This was even better the 2nd time around! I didn't want the story to end but I understand that it had to. This story keeps you wrapped up in it. It keeps you wondering what's going to happen next! How could you not with a hot moody demigod attached to you.
Just one more chapter was a constant while reading this book. When the paperback comes out it will be a permanent part of my collection.

Engaging charectors you become immersed in their world and lots of witty banter with action packed mystery, suspense and drama as you follow the charectors through the story. I enjoyed this book and the authors writing style!

[Sue Yeates · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved this book. It's a fun read. I read it on Kindle Vella and loved the idea of choose your own adventure. I reread it as a novel and loved the story more. It's a great immersive book with a fun story line.

Intriguing POVs!

This is a new concept to me. I've never read a book where I get to be the main character! That was pretty fun. A cozy and comedic adventure I didn't know I needed. Imagination score: 10/10

[Jenny Rios-Rodriguez · Rating 2 out of 5]

I should have DNF. Written in 2nd POV, special human fmc and half vampire/demigod mmc, and episodic chapters.

Book was extremely repetitive and immature.

[Sally Jucha · Rating 3 out of 5]

The idea was cute but the execution didn't pan out for me. I found myself skimming large portions.
