I love being back with my favorite muffin lord and his men. Evan and his men are my happy place; they are completely swoon-worthy, and each member brings something unique, special, and completely endearing to their family. I love the fun new setting and the meeting of a potential new member of Evan's horde of men. This suitor has a fresh intensity that leaves me very intrigued at his role in Evan's destiny.

Overall, being back with Evan, Maddox, Briar, Lake, Rowan, and Callum was perfect, and once again, it went way too fast. I love the small moments, the mystery that moves the plot forward by providing important answers while leaving many questions unanswered. Overall, Evan's journey is full of love, action, mystery, and complete joy. I cannot wait for the next one!!!

Well. It’s no wonder this is one of my favorite series. Jaclyn has done it again! This may well be my favorite in the series so far. The amount of time that I spent on the edge of my seat is insane. Lol. And that ending. Ma’am. I’m gonna need book 6 STAT. Ugh. And I am LOVING getting to know our newest guy. Ugh. I am such a sucker for his type 🫠 Anyway, read this. It does NOT disappoint.

Once again, just like with volumes 1-4, I am left frothing at the mouth after a cliffy waiting for the next book.

Cedric just gets worse and worse, I wish only bad things for him.

Also… Lake is Elite. Yes I love them all but LAKE, my sweet Wolfe Demi human, I would protect him AND Kuya with my life.

4.25/5. Because editing. Also because how dare you give me Ban hope and then snatch that shit away? I don’t care if it’s necessary to the plot. That man deserved more. I will statue of liberty on that forever. Give me my Ban. 😭 Other than that, as usual, I loved it and I’m gutted I have to wait, like, another year, but I’m old and used to the struggle. Instant gratification is the new generation’s toxic fallacy.

.

Ahhhhhh. I’m screaming.
What a book. I read it in one sitting.
I adore Evan and all his men, whether they’re in his harem or his friends. The jokes, cuteness and just everything.

This book was so good. I literally need the next book in my hands now please 😂😂 it ended on a cliffhanger (kind of) and I need more. I need to know what happens. And I love being right. There is something said in the first book, that in highlighted wondering if it was important and boom, by the end of this book, it was correct. I love making connections!

I’m so glad we get to see Evan’s sixth man and cannot wait to see where their romance takes them and how everyone will react when they find out about who the sixth man is.

This is the fifth book in the series and it should be read in order.

Amazing! In my top five favourite books this year and my favourite of this series! I read every word with such pleasure and happiness.
I adore Evan and his men! What always hooks me is the bonds, loyalty and love between Evan, Lake, Briar, Callum, Rowan and Maddox. It was so good to visit all of these wonderful characters again including the many side characters who I adore with all my heart!

I have been waiting a long time for the new addition to Evan’s men. The chemistry between them was fire and well worth the wait.

Poor Evan went through a lot in this one and I felt both outraged on his behalf and just wanted to hug him.

Oreo is my hero, I love him, I need more of him, and I want to reach into the book and take him home with me!

I really liked visiting the new locations and was very pleased that lots of my predictions came true. I definitely still have more theories with the new information.

So much happened in this book, some things definitely took me by surprise but I loved, devoured and savoured every moment. Now I just need the next one! And I’m so excited for the audiobook!

🧁 Why choose/ male harem
🌤️ Grumpy/ sunshine
🗡️ “Touch him and die” vibes
😍 Protective stubborn men
🥵 Villains with sharp jawlines
🛏️ “We’re gonna need a bigger bed”
⚔️ Knights and their big swords
🥰 Swoon, muffins and spice.

The full five stars, this is so rare for me!

Evan!!! Sweetie I adore you but cmon it’s not a leak in the castle. Ban is one of your men. I adore you but I thought you’d have figured this out in this book. Apparently not.

Also Jaclyn, I loved the book and think you’re amazing. However I hate you so much for making me wait a year for another book… okay yeah it takes time to write a book let alone a quality book. But like I get can’t you just magically pop them out? I just wanna know the whole story already 😭. In conclusion, I don’t hate you but I’m real upset I can’t read all of the series yet.

To explain how much I’m loving these books… partway through this one I went in and bought books 2-5 as I’d borrowed those in KU, but I knew I’d be rereading these. So. A lot happened up in this book. Needless to say, I think book six is gonna be a wowzer.

⭐ **5 stars**

🧠 **ADHD Chokehold Scale: 4.5/6 - Locked In to In a Chokehold**

Can we please travel back in time and visit Kendall reading Volume 1 for a minute?

Because she was sitting there going:

*"Awww. This is such a cozy little fantasy. Everything works out so conveniently for Evan. How can there possibly be enough story for seven-plus books?"*

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

**OH, YOU NAIVE LITTLE MUFFIN.**

🧁😂

YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S COMING.

Because five books later we have:

⚔️ Political conflict.

😈 Demons.

✨ Dark magic.

🩸 Brutal attacks.

👀 Major revelations about Evan's past.

🐺 THE CUTEST DEMON WOLF PUPPY ALIVE.

☕ Cafés, because obviously we still have priorities.

❤️ Five men hopelessly in love with one Muffin Lord.

And now...

🖤 **SHADOW DADDY HAS ENTERED THE CHAT.**

LORD ONYX.

HELLO, SIR.

Apparently Jaclyn Osborn looked at the list of everything Kendall likes and realized she'd somehow forgotten the Shadow Daddy.

Don't worry.

**MISTAKE CORRECTED.**

Although technically I thought we already had a Shadow Daddy in Rowan.

Apparently not.

Apparently, Rowan is the **Shadow Bottom**.

💀💀💀

I'm sorry.

I couldn't resist.

But seriously, I cannot believe how much this series has evolved.

What started as pure cozy wish fulfillment has become an actual epic fantasy story.

And yet somehow, it hasn't lost what made me fall in love with it.

We still have Evan being an absolute menace.

We still have muffins and coffee.

We still have the found family.

We still have his men.

We still have Callum, my precious cinnamon-roll virgin who I would protect with my LIFE.

But now there's this much larger story unfolding around all of them.

And in Volume 5, we're finally getting some BIG answers.

We're learning more about Evan.

His history.

Why he's different.

Why all of this might be happening.

What makes him special.

And the payoff is so freaking satisfying.

Then the end of this book just...

**CRESCENDOS.**

Everything starts coming together and suddenly I'm looking at this ridiculous little cozy series I started and thinking:

How the hell did we get HERE?!

And I mean that as the highest compliment.

This series has all the things I loved about epic fantasy growing up...

Except now it's queer.

It's why choose.

It's spicy.

There are beautiful men everywhere.

And apparently we're adding a Shadow Daddy.

**THIS SERIES WAS ENGINEERED IN A LAB FOR ME.**

My only complaint?

I blew through these books way too freaking quickly.

(Hehe. Blew through. I'm twelve.)

😂

Now I'm already thinking:

*"Well... I guess I could listen to the audiobooks..."*

Because apparently leaving Bremloc and Evan's ridiculous collection of men is simply not an option.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Again.

Obviously.

I can get a bit bored after book 3/4 in a series if they all focus on the same characters but with each of these books, I only become more besotted with Evan and his men.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I have a massive soft spot for the demi-human Lake that only seems to get more intense in every book - he's such a cutie! Him and Briar remain my favourites of Evan's men at this stage, but we'll see if things change.

It's not just the MMCs I've grown incredibly attached to though, I also adore their close friends, and I so love the found family they've created. Prince Sawyer's kindness and Kuya's cheeky nature ensure these two supporting characters have a special spot in my heart too.

What's great about these books is that there is a continuous plot that flows so well, and doesn't feel forced at all, with everything seeming to unravel so smoothly. Evan's life just seems to get more complicated as the various twists keep coming, but the books still manage to be light hearted, warm and easy to read, making this a very enjoyable series.

Highly recommended if you're looking for something to make your day feel a little lighter.

DEVOURED THIS IN ONE DAY.

Listen. I stan the Muffin Lord and his men SO HARD. Book 5 did NOT disappoint.

The plot was plotting. More intense and exciting than previous books. Literally could not put this down, heart racing, WHATS GONNNA HAPPEN!? I'm so glad to see more uncovered about Evan's past and future.

The men? Yes please. Everyone one of Evan's males gets some quality time with him and Evan discovers a few new things he likes. Ow owwww. I'm SO happy that Lake is a focus on this book, he is a sweet little thing that gets all the love. Outside of the men, the rest of the characters are well written and lovely as always.

Listen. I don't know what Jaclyn is putting in these books but it has to be one of THE best series I've read this read.

5/5⭐

Nobody is surprised that I absolutely loved this book. This series has a special place in my heart and I never want it to end. I could read pages upon pages about these characters and never get bored.

We get some new revelations in this book (some of them I guessed) and it kind of ends on a cliffhanger, which is going to make me crazy until the 6th volume is out. I don't think I'm patient enough for this. I'll have to reread the entire series, otherwise I'll miss this world and characters too much.

My favourite thing about this series are all the heartwarming friendships and relationships, I'm a sucker for found family and it is done very well here.

🧁cozy fantasy
🧁why-choose-romance
🧁found family
🧁great worldbuilding

I really enjoy this series, although this particular entry was just okay. My biggest complaint about the series, which was especially noticeable to me in this book, is that every visit from Lupin feels more like the author retcon-ing the story to get herself out of corners she painted herself into in past books. This really detracts from the cohesiveness of the narrative.

That being said, I love this world and enjoy these characters. Briar and Maddox finally spending more intimate time together was a huge hit with me. I like Evan on the whole, but really feel that Maddox and Briar would make the best couple of all.

almost awesome

I wanted to write this review after the last book in the series but gave it one more book for redemption. I really enjoy this story. What i don’t enjoy is the constant recap. I feel like if you are this far, even the 3rd book, u shouldn’t have it. I was starting to get very annoyed and started skipping paragraphs. Bc this is crap i already knew. Also the constant mentioning of Rowan’s snagle toothed fang. That was very annoying. But again the story kept me interested. Otherwise i would’ve quit reading bc of these issues.

Evander deserves apologies from everyone in the story for continually insulting his lethal skills and balance. We finally get an answer for who the next fated mate is and we get a rehash from Lupin on how Ev's actions (along with others) continually alter his story.

His banter with *you know who* though?! I was for it and so pleased that Lake clocked the situation immediately. Book 6 and suitor #6 is going to be fully of drama. I do wonder if *you know who* likes to share and if there is a bed that can hold about... 8 individuals.

Tbh this book shows signs of the problem with harem series; the bigger the group, the harder it is to keep a cohesive storyline and give all the characters enough screen time. Maddox seems like the authors fave, but I find him pretty arrogant and boring. Maybe I'm too British but it's also unbelievably soppy and swoony all the time, and quickly became wayyy too much!
I don't hate it, it's very easy listening, but sometimes less is definitely more. And I know it's just a bloody book, but sometimes the lack of communication between them is really aggravating!

Wow, I don't know where to begin. I honestly think this series is next level. The writing is like nothing I’ve ever read before and not only is the story telling thrilling, romantic and full of so much detail but you can truly feel how much Jaclyn care about these characters. I think it’s her best writing. The way the plot is expanding and all this new informations is coming to us along with the action and love makes for an incredibly well rounded book. This is one of my books of the year.

As always I loved everything about this book, Evan and his men are just amazing! I loved finding out more about Evans and the kingdoms past! And finally properly meeting Lord Onyx, so good, can’t wait to see what he and Evan get up too! I’m gagged after that revelation about the king!!! Also Kuya is the best, I adore him so much! Can’t wait for the next book and Evan to be reunited with the rest of his men!

How dare you!?

Aaaahhhh how dare you end this book like this?
MAJOR cliffhangers 😭😭
I can’t wait for the next volume to come out. The story took the best of turns and everything is clicking into place.
The little harem is about to become bigger with our own cedar and woodsmoke man.
I’m so excited for what’s coming next, now that we know Evan’s true identity and we found out who’s the real villain I want to see how things close up.

This was such an amazing series, I flew through them! I became attached to Evan and all of his men so fast.
Vol 5 was a great addition, I was on the edge of my seat for all of the second half. I thought Vol 6 was out, so a little disappointing I'm not able to immediately start the next book but I guess I'm lucky that I only have a month to wait for the next book.
I will be impatiently waiting for the next release and finish it in a day, then be sad again.

This series is so addictive. I devoured this book just like the first 4 and I am already eagerly awaiting book 6 because I need more. I love Evan’s kindness for absolutely everyone and his inability to keep quiet in serious situations. The plot is definitely thickening and I am so excited for the new mate because I 100% guessed it!
