When my dark magic meets a spelled book, my favorite adult toys turn into…three hotties?!
I made an enemy of my allies when I stole a few items that weren't necessarily mine. Now that I'm being hunted, romance isn't in the cards. But after a spell meets my dirty mind, a night of solo fun turns into an evening on the run with:
- A shy, bookish vampire - An 18th century pirate with serious swagger - Shakespeare
All with the ability to shift back into the er- magical playthings.
With only one day until the spell wears off and my men vanish, I promise to show them a good time. There’s only one catch: My enemy is closing in on us. If I want a chance of a future with these naughty toy shifters, I need to confront my painful past.

This book is funny but, oh my god, its exhausting.
My reading experience with this book went from roflmao to just exhaustion from trying to make sense of the chaos that is April June/ Juniper. Every word that comes out of her month is some sort of a really creative swear phrase, that sometimes didn't make sense to me. And then there are words that really shouldn't be used as everyday words but in this book, they were just normal language.
Sometimes when words fail me, I turn to numbers, so here goes.
Understand, this book has 270 pages. Then try to imagine what kind of a story was told with the below word count spread through only 270 pages.
It takes talent to tell a somehow normal adventure/action pnr story that actually makes sense, but using so many porn-words. Granted, sometimes it was tricky to follow some dialogues but the storyline is interesting enough to make up for those "huh" moments. But I guess it was to be expected as the MMCs are dildo shifters, l know crazy.
I have been trying to classify this book but I can't think if a suitable genre. The closest I can think of is "really dirty slapstick romantic comedy action rh" with a kickass heroine. I mean the book has a dildo shifter William Shakespeare for goodness sake, it doesn't get more romantic than that.
FIrst off I am giving you a warning, DO NOT WHATSOEVER EAT OR DRINK ANYTHING WHILE READING THIS BOOK!! lol I nearly choked on my food and drinks while reading. This is a laugh out loud, knee slapping and learn new words book. Juniper is a dark witch who does not want to do bad things. She does have a past and that may come back to haunt her. However she is known for her shop The Magic Rooster. What a novelty store it is. Someone shows up and then everything gets crazy. Juniper somehow turns three of her toys into men. But for how long? There is some fighting and some omg moments but you got to read the book to find out. Trust me you will not be disappointed.

WHOA, wenmen! Juniper is about to go on the run to avoid her past catching up with her but before she leaves she wants to enjoy one last night with her favorite "friends". Using some special stones and a spelled mate finder book, she ends up with more than she was looking for but exactly what she needed. Juniper's men convince her that she's more than her past and better than just a dark witch. I could not stop laughing about all the adventures her and her men get into while on the run. I loved the cameos by other Silver Springs characters and can't wait to see how Sammy, Shakes, Oscar and Juniper settle down.
At first this one was a little too full on so took a break. Over the top dick humour with 3 dildo shifters. I liked how smooth the spell passing is compared to the pumpkin spice lattes. I also liked how one of the guys was connected to Sapphire. Fun read.
So I have been anxiously waiting for this book before I even knew it was happening. Ever since I heard about Juniper in Sapphire’s book, I knew I would absolutely love the hell out of her. Who reads about a magical dildo fight and doesn’t want to learn about their maker? This book exceeded my expectations and I can’t even tell you the last time I laughed and snorted so hard! Juniper is sassy, sarcastic, secretly has a big heart, and very comfortable and confident in her sexuality. Sammy is by far my favorite guy in her harem, mainly because he’s a pirate and they are drool worthy. Shakes was my next favorite because you get to see a different side of Shakespeare and his “modern slang” that was a mixture of such a long period of time. Oscar was great too, but he had a tragic history and was the most shy. This book was filled with humor, action, heartfelt moments, and sexy times that I couldn’t stop turning the pages! I would love to see a sequel of how her men adjust to the modern world and town of Silver Springs. I was happy to be able to see Sapphire and Bob again, but mostly Bob- I love his big sappy human heart! I liked that we also got introduced to some new characters as well and look forward to learning more about their lives. *I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is such a laugh a minute read. Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start. Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believeable. Great humor and drama with wonderful world building. Can't wait to read what the author brings out next. Recommend reading.

Juniper was a witch on the run. After hiding out in Silver Springs, she opened a magical sex shop with enchanted toys and supplies. After getting ahold of a "special" magic book, three of her fated mates appeared within three of her favorite "boyfriends". Trouble appears when her old gang arrives in town. Will she run or Will she stay and face her past
I must admit that I have read these out of order. I probably say this with every Eva Delaney book, but this also may have became my new favorite. This was completelyaction packed, witty, fun and hilarious. Not only that, talking dildo shifters...OMG 😂😂😂.
Juniper drinking game: take a drink every time you read the word "dildo".
But seriously, I loved this book. The magic was exceptionally creative, and the book a fantastic action-adventure atmosphere to it. I hope that Juniper, like Sapphire, gets a sequel because these characters are hilarious together, and there's a bit of unfinished business with Alyssa... TBC?
This book is sooooo weird, but I laughed a lot. Don’t go into this one expecting anything serious, like at allll. There are a lot of references I didn’t get because I didn’t read the Jewels Cafe series.
I took a few breaks when I was reading this one, there’s a lot of really over the top/crass sex humor and you just kinda need to be in that headspace to read it 😂😂
I guess this was my most anticipated book in the new series. The idea sounded so incredibly absurd that I just had to read how Delaney would make it work. It's also maybe the most out of my comfort zone reverse harem book I've ever read, at least, when you read the blurb of this book. I mean, a girl owning a shop with sex toys and mated to three dildo shifters. Let's be honest, there were a million ways this book could totally go wrong.
But Eva Delaney is a genius. An absolute genius. Who would have ever thought that I'd end up giving this book a five star rating? And a well deserved five star rating! I enjoyed this book so much! I had tears rolling down my cheeks from laughter, but there were also serious moments where I was touched and really moved. And then there was also a nice plot that made sure the stakes were high enough to keep all of this interesting.
It helps that this entire story fits Juniper, the main character. I don't want to give too much away, but Juniper carries some guilt from her past and is now doing everything she can to bring some joy into the world. And what better way to bring joy than to sell magical sex toys? She's very comfortable talking about her toys and sex in general and although that took some getting used to at first for me, I really enjoyed it. It made her seem free and open. And even though she lied a lot, I just instantly liked her.
I also love how Delaney develops the relationships between Juniper and her guys. They all get some time to bond, to talk about things meaningful to them, to form a connection that goes much further than a simple physical and sexual attraction. Even though it all goes quite fast, time wise, it therefore still feels like a lovestory. And all three guys are different and unique, a little crazy, but hey, if they'd been normal they wouldn't have been mated to Juniper.
I also really liked how the epilogue introduced Lupine. I can't wait to properly meet her, but I think I already fell in love with her!
This is an awesome read that had me hooked from the second that I started reading it. It moves along at a great pace, has interesting and unique characters that you can’t help but fall in love with. The story is so well written that you feel as though you are there. This needs to be read.
OMG! This book is amazingly hilarious, I loved it! I really enjoyed the storyline and the characters are fantastic. I mean seriously, who doesn’t love flying dildos and dildo shifters! You will love this book. I would highly recommend it! I am crossing my fingers and hoping for a second book.
This book made me giggle. Uncontrollably. For a ridiculous amount of time. I don't even have words. It was just fantastic! The story was funny, action packed, and all around engaging. The level of innuendo used throughout this story only made it that much better! As always I can only wish for more from Juniper (April June) and her wacky guys.
Juniper aka April June works in an adult shop. She is a very powerful black magic witch. This story has everything, comedy, tragedy, hot scenes. Loved reading about Juniper and her three mates. Thanx.

Such a fun, sexy read! It was witty, sarcastic, and downright hilarious! From the flying adult products, to the sexy men, fun magic it was one heck of a read!
The book isn’t funny. The author uses every sexual euphemism she can think of, constantly, to the detriment of the plot, character development, and world building. Her commitment to this theme is so complete that it gets in the way of what she is trying to illustrate about what the heroine thinks or feels, to the point that it reads like the heroine has a mental illness because she can’t think clearly.
The premise is just a background screen for normalizing emotional and physical abuse in romantic relationships as well as an unhealthy focus on seeking sexual discomfort, pretending things about sex are enjoyable that are not, and writing non-sexy, uncomfortable, unsought soft-core porn. This book feels like false advertising because it isn’t a comedy, despite numerous sexual euphemisms, innuendos, pretending hurtful words are flirting, and graphic and unrealistic descriptions of sexual attitudes and responses. Some of the things the author presents as arousing are pretty disgusting, so the sex scenes were not only undesired, they were also really off-putting. If she had more empathy then she could probably write better sex scenes. However, she eschews empathy and builds the sex scenes around frustration, which is the emotion most often confused with arousal. Frustration is not sexy, romantic, or fun to read about.
There is no romance, there is no relationship building, and only a handful of paragraphs actually advance the plot.
I don’t recommend this book to anyone, but the one about Violet in this series was really sweet.
I cracked up reading this book. Juniper runs the towns sex shop. She can make any toy what you could want. When her favorite dildoes turn into three sexy men she in for the time of her life
With the exception of a wandering book, I'm not quite sure how this connects to the library at all. That said it's a bit like night and day from the last book even though the descriptions sound slightly similar. For one while the first novel in the series was about as clean as an RH novel could get, this one walks firmly on the wild side with not just dildos linked with ghosts for characters but numerous detailed sex scenes that don't even come close to qualifying as Vanilla. I still don't find the emotional part easy to believe but the plot was definitely interesting and had me turning pages unable to put this one down. It was not just often hilarious but an edge of your seat paranormal suspense I'd definitely recommend.
The dildo jokes got old very quickly. I get it. I suppose this is all meant to be funny. It’s very crude and base humor. The irony is one of the men is supposed to be Shakespeare and we all know what he said about sarcasm being the lowest form of wit.
In all honesty it felt like a fast forwarded movie where nothing made sense at all. I don’t see how all of these positive reviews made it here. I couldn’t make it last 30 pages. It’s tedious. The characters are chaotic. The plot is loose at best. Juniper isn’t very compelling. The three men? Even less so. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this one.
I read a hard time reading this book. While I liked the storyline, which is what kept me reading, the vulgarity was a big turn of for me. I managed to finish the book but if this hadn't been part if a longer multi-author series it probably would have been in the DNF pile. I will likely skip any other books by this author in this series.
Just too silly for me. I like a good rom-com every now and then, but this was way too out there for me. I couldn't relate to any character and I found myself rolling my eyes and the over-sexualized story line. Just a real miss for me.
You meet April June "Juniper" in Violet's hilarious story, as the witch that runs the local spelled sex toy shop. Between helping little old ladies up and down four flights of stairs with dildos that have wings, having a glass winged dildo alarm system, and running from the head of a coven that actually wants her head, Juniper doesn't exactly have a easy life.
When the Shadow Masters came to get Violet, Juniper knew her time in Silver Springs was going to be over soon. So Juniper pulled out her three favorite toys, spelled them to come to life with Soulbreaker stones to come to life, then pulled open Love Blooms to get her jollies one last time before flying off into the night. Little did she know that the combination she embarked on would bring a Saucy Pirate, William Shakespear, and a shy vampire into her life as her MATES of all things!!!
This is definitely a romcom that will having you choking on your food and drink so keep them FAR away!!! Juniper grew up on the wrong side of the proverbial tracks, and she had a knack for curses but she was tired of hurting others and tired of stealing for a power hungry Wizard so she stole several items and went *poof*. But when the coven caught up with her, she rekindled an old friendship, found out that true love really does exist, that when you have others depending on you and loving you that anything can happen, and dreams can come true.
Juniper uses everything in her Arsenal to take back the power that the wizard had been stealing, returning items that had been stolen, freeing the coven from her half brother's power, and even defeating the bad guys with spell casting, flying dildos just to get her men back in her life.
So all I can say is hold onto kindles, keep away things from your mouth, and get ready for a hot sizzling story that will have you both moaning and giggling yourself silly!!
Sammy shrugged. “I like a woman who’s dangerous like the sea herself. Ye ain’t know when she’ll embrace ye on her slow heaving bosom, or when the curves of her waves will tease ye to sail fast and rough, or when she’ll try to throw ye against a bulkhead and fuck ye.”
I can honestly say this might be the most ridiculous book I've ever read in my entire life....but I'm not sure that's a bad thing. The first 5-10 pages I wasn't sold on it, but once she summoned her mates I was hooked! (It may also be that I started the book when I was super tired at like midnight). Definitely hilarious. And not for the faint of heart. Must love sex jokes and not be embarrassed by sex toys.
“He’s thirsty as fuck,” Shakespeare said. “Thou don’t soundst like the bard half the time,” I said.
A pirate, Shakespeare and a super sensitive red hair vampire for a harem? Yes please. Fing adorable.
Fucking pirate bastard. His craziness would be hot if he wore a pirate hat and stood at the helm of a ship, shouting ‘curse ye, devil!’ at a storm. While smashing expensive shit in my apartment, he was the worst.
My only real complaint is I wanted a longer story, but I'm glad to see there is more of Juniper and her men in another book.
“What was your unfinished business?” I asked. “I never knew, but now I think it was you. I was waiting for my soul mate.” My heart fluttered like the wings of a flying dildo. “Only took four hundred years.”
Iv just got a copy and wow I was so excited as I love eve Delaney writing and I know I would not be disappointed.from the very beginning of this book there was jam packed action.with her flying dildos that will alert her when any danger is near but will also sing to the customers of her store.which I found very creative and funny.at one point I felt sad for her but then with a bit of magic and the mysterious romance book something happens that she can't explain.then all of a sudden 3 sexy and well built men appear,a pirate,Shakespeare who's a romantic and a vampire that is quite shy and one seems to have the obsession with rum but I guess you know who that will be.but if she didn't get a speelbinder then they wouldn't last long and the mating bond might not last and that's the least of her troubles as she has enemies from her past coming to the serfice.I laught so much and at one point were Sammy the pirate believed the phone was a slave box and thought it would steel his soal and stomped on it and just the way they spoke in olde language made me laugh thro this book and I was not disappoint.it was everything I was waiting for and more and I got the ending that I was hoping for and more.I loved how some of the other characters are interlinked other story's from the jewels cafe series that I love so mush
If you are reading the reviews, you might be on the fence as to whether or not you want to read this book. The description on here makes me think "eh, I can take it or leave it because my TBR list is so long anyways". I will tell you, this needs to put this on the top of the TBR list. The best advice I can give you is to take a few minutes and read the first couple of pages of the book from the "Look Inside" feature that Amazon graciously gives us. You will instantly fall in love and will laugh so much in just a few pages that you will NEED to buy and finish this book. And then buy for all of your friends because they need to read this book. I am not really all that interested in reading about sex toys (but I love a great pun and my coworker and I are now kinda wanting to open up a shop just so we can name it the Magic Rooster), but this author really makes it work in such a fantastic way. WARNING: DO NOT READ THIS BOOK IN A PLACE WHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO LAUGH OUT LOUD
Laughed so hardmI cried for Juniper and her dildo mates
Juniper a dark wit1ch cast a spell to bind 3 ghosts to 3 dildos but she's hit with a mate spell at the same time and ends up with 3 fated dildo mates. When her past catches up and she has to run the 3 men follow. The spell is only temporary with a special item to power it but her biggest enemy has it. Will she be able to deteat her half brother Ramrod to keep her men or will she learn to live without her mates? This story I'd hilarious and oh so dirty. The characters are unique and interesting. There is also a lot of world building going on as well Silver Springs has a lot of supe inhabitants and many of them star in their own stories. I rate Juniper 4 out of 5 stars. If you enjoy your humor vulgar and dirty and you romance silly and spicy, this fated mate paranormal reverse harem will have you laughing a lot!
This story is not what you may expect. I know dildo shifters sound a bit weird but if you go with it I think you'll be pleasantly surprised...
So Juniper is a witch with a secret, one that keeps her on the run. On the night she's getting ready to run once again she decides she needs a night of sexy fun before heading out. This is how Juniper ends up with 3 ghosts that can shift into dildos and from there the craziness and weird fun begins. The 3 ghosts are very different but you can't help but want all of them. The relationships between the characters is entertaining and the story line is good. As a whole it's a fun read - there's drama, action and plenty of funny moments. My favorite are Juniper on the ship with her 3 "guys" on her way to save the day with Alyssa - all in all I think you'll get a kick out of it.
Fun series of stand alone books in a shared universe with a little bit of character cross over.
Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...
1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.
2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.
3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.
4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.
5 stars... I loved this book! It has earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.
