Opening Boo’s Boutique Bakery is almost within Adie’s reach. It’s so close, she can taste the frosting. With her plate already full of three sexy demons, a cadre of wayward imps, and her search to find out about her errant demonic nature, it’s not the best time for an unknown hunter to walk into her bakery with her prospective new employee. Adie can’t seem to catch a break. Or can she?

Her new baker comes with potential risks that might outweigh the benefits of having her help with the soft-opening Adie plans for her bakery. If that’s not enough, weird things are happening when she tries to feed that send her reeling. Can she make the right choices and get answers? Or will her cupcake dreams go up in smoke?

Follow Adie on her continuing (mis)adventures filled with troublesome demons and wayward humans as she strives toward achieving a quasi-normal life among humans.

Adie is a succubus who may have rushed a little when it came to getting a human body. Which has caused her not to be able to enter the dream world by herself, as other succubi can do. She's accepted the deal granted she altered it just a little but enough to get what she wants plus her bakery. However, the more time she spends with the guys the more she learns about herself. It's time to study up and learn what she's missing about being a succubus because she's doing it wrong.

Adie has a plan but opening a bakery she will feed on the happy people with skimming she won't need to worry about feeding herself. The only thing standing in her way just happens to be three powerful demons who are determined to get more than just a deal out of her. In order to open her bakery, they want her to feed off them but at what cost? Will she survive a Bargain with the trio? Will she get her bakery?

I've had my eye on this series for a while but waited till a few more came out before diving right in. The reverse harem concept is growing in popularity and I'm becoming a quick fan. As the series is short novellas I figured it was better to combine them together plus that way I wouldn't be giving anything away. I love Adie she's a great character you can't help cheering her on as she overcomes everything that is thrown at her. At first, I wasn't sure about our demon trio but the more we get to know them the more I like them. I'm curious to see how this is all going to work out. I highly recommend this quick read series it's easy to get lost and read them all in just a few short hours. One of my new favorites and I can't wait for the next one to come out.

I love Adie's stories. The only reason I don't give them a five star, is because they are serials. Meaning, they are short, with just enough to tease us into a bigger bite.

Love

This author is the best ever... I can’t wait to read more books. Every book I read gets better and better. Waiting for the new book is going to be very hard.

Insomnia is really an odd thing. A fact clearly proven by the fact that I was able to sit through eight 'books' of this so called reverse harem series. Ps. These honestly shouldn't be called books as they are relatively the size pf a chapter or two in a normal sized novel - it feels like I've cheated on my goodreads challenge.

With that being said, we really haven't made much progress since book 1. Sure she's making out with the guys a little more and there was that 'almost threesome' scene on the couch, but she still refuses to feed as she should.

She denies her attraction and attachment to them and yet tries to lay claim on them when someone sniffs at them. She is still quite the doormat who refuses to see that her mentor was a piece of shit who never taught her how to survive and just uses her as a meal and a slave.
She also doesn't stand up to her cousins, esp the pimp cousin (whose name I've already forgotten) - he walks all over and disrespects her at every turn but she insists that he's nice *insert hard eye roll*.

The guys are also major assholes tbh. She should stand up to them more and not try to placate them after every argument, especially since they are the ones who are always on the wrong and are just being big, overpowered, rude and disrespectful babies.

PS. Despite my annoyance with the story, Adie's behaviour and the guys general assholery tendencies, I feel like I might continue with the other installments. I have a sick fascination with the story and the side characters are sorta interesting. Or maybe I'm just a masochist and glutton for punishment. Who knows

Things are progressing with Adie and her demons and the time is coming closer for her bakery to open. She just needs to get an assistant baker, deal with her little demon helpers and get things going straight. But of course, trouble looms in more ways than one.
Adie is doing better. She's being a bit less childish and things are starting to develop between her and her men. Her bakery is soon to open and she's got some help! Of course there was a scare that almost slammed things to halt, but she learns not to judge everyone by how they look.
Of course, you can expect a cliffhanger with some more trouble to come with an excited little demon on the loose. 5 out of 5 stars fun! Check it out and enjoy the progress!

Realmente estaba leyendo 《Succubus Studies》. Pero me quedé a un 66%. Más o menos. Y bueno, lo iba a terminar para ver que sucedía pero ya otra que. Total puedo marcar estos. Y me quedé hasta aquí.

I know que son demonios. Pero los protagonistas masculinos no me caían nada bien. Desde el inicio. Siendo unos cabrones para tenerla. Y entiendo que quieran un contrato, pero no iba a ser una relación igual (solo trabajo).

Y lo muestran una y otra vez. Solo quieren el sexo (y lo otro). Y es que si. Si hubieran tenido poder sobre ella, hubiera sido mil veces peor.

Y bueno después se van relajando. Pero no caen bien.

This story just gets more and more fun!

So Adie is interviewing and training staff for her new bakery, but they are an eclectic group. Getting things ready for the opening is wearing her out. Her roommates are more than willing to help her recharge, but she still isn't quite comfortable with that. And as always, cousin Julian is being a pain in the butt.
The soft opening of Boo's Boutique was a great success, but Julian has royally messed up her life again...what will happen after the latest disaster? I can't wait to see!

Amazing as always

Another great installment in this series. The storyline remains fun and captivating while leaving just enough disdain for a certain cousin. Can't wait until the next book.

Always fun

This installment reminded me that, although she's an adult, our favorite succubus is newly formed. I love how the sexual tension keeps building and how real her reaction is to unknown feelings. Can't wait for next month!

There’s always got to be something or someone that messes up a great day. So far, I feel like Adie’s “family” sucks. They don’t seem to care for her, but I guess that’s how succubus and incubus are in the series. Guess I’ll find out if they actually care in the end.

Loved it

Shame on Julian for starting trouble. I’m so loving everything about these books and I can’t wait for the next one. That little cliffhanger was good especially since the next book is already out!

Just perfect

Taking on a new life ...this series has garnered my affection and while each story is short they are released often enough that I do feel shafted.

Well done

Very enjoyable. It could use a bit of editing, there were just a few typos. I'm glad the bakery opened. Of course all this talk about cupcakes makes me want them!
