maybe humanity was a mistake

Yep. Pastry shifters. Men who shift into pastries.
This is less of a superpower and more of a curse, since the shift is not completely in their control. So one second, you're getting it on with your boyfriend in bed, and the next -- Boom. Croissant between your sheets.
See? See what I mean?
Second reason this is the absolute worst is that you can't even eat the pastry. Cause it's technically still a sentient person. That would be cannibalism.
So needless to say this was NOT escapism and I sincerely hope I never meet a pastry shifter of my own

I’ve been wet practically since the first moment I met these guys, and I’m not passing the opportunity with Bax up. Just one problem: I can’t grab him and drag him to the bedroom, because he’s a cannoli.

i can excuse terrible smut but i draw the line at using "croissant" as a verb and at a man literally transforming into one. i demand reparations.

For what it is intended to be, this is great. Full of puns and laughs and doesn’t take itself too seriously.
Minus a star for being 2 pages shy of 69.

Ok. Hear me out. Take a few minutes out of your day and read this. 60 pages of absolutely hilarious insanity. A baker meets her fated mates who shift….INTO PASTRIES. One shifts into a croissant if he says too many words!!! One poofs into a cannoli when he gets nervous. And the third is a sympathetic shifter so whenever the other two shift, bam, he turns into an eclair on the floor. This is funny shit. I made my husband read it. We had a great time 😂

For love of god if you are an IRL friend don’t judge this read. It was awful…but everyone should read it. I cackled my way through all 67 pages.

my friends told me to read a reverse harem pastry shifter romance, so i read a reverse harem pastry shifter romance.
it is exactly what it sounds like.
here’s some quotes that i wrote down for your viewing pleasure:
Internally, I sigh. Externally, I’m stuck on the floor because I’m a fucking eclair.
Sometimes, talking is overrated. In my case, it also sends me to Croissant City-but that’s beside the point.
Jessy’s thighs are spread wide, inviting me to lick her core, and what am I doing? Lying on the carpeted floor in croissant form.
in conclusion, i paid $2.99 to read about a man that shifts into a croissant when he talks to much, a man that turns into a cannoli when he’s anxious, and a man that turns into an eclair when he sympathy shifts for his friends

I think this is where I stop with this author. Short, insta-mates, with glitchy food shifters and a fmc with the standard insecurities. The first time around it was sweet, this one felt a little tedious. I was hoping for more of the actual bakeoff.

Such a funny quick read! The book is very fast paced in my opinion.

If you go in blind and analyse nothing about this book, you will find the most ridiculous little instalove story about a woman who loves pastry so much she wants to fuck it (she genuinely asks them if they can have sex as pastries) and also pastry shifting at inopportune and amusing times left right and centre.
However, having finished this book an hour ago, I just realised there is only one 🌶️🥐🌶️ scene and she doesn’t even have sex with one of them. His rolling pin doesn’t even get near her her hand, mouth or dough-hole, if you catch my drift.
How do you even have a foursome if half the team just stands and watches 😭
Look it’s ridiculous and you will laugh but you’ll also wish you were crying.

I have so many questions.
1) What is their size when they shift? Like, are they normal sized croissants? Or do they shift into human sized cannolis?
2) What happens if you accidentally eat them in their pastry form?
3) Who decided this was hot?
4) I can’t imagine being the editor and seeing this. I would IMMEDIATELY switch clients. 💀

Gražūs vyrai pavirsta į bandeles, kalorijos neegzistuoja, niekas čia nestorėja – ko daugiau iš kliteratūros galiu norėt?!

This was ridiculous and I loved it.
I don’t think I have ever laughed at a book as hard as I laughed in this one. It’s exactly what it says. It’s a reverse harem, all bakers, and three of them just happen to shift into pastries.
It’s as tasty and delicious as it sounds 👀
One shifts when he talks too much, another shifts when the first one shifts, and the last one shifts when he’s anxious.
Please enjoy some of my favorite quotes:
🥐“Do we tell her we’re shifters and she’s ours before we—” I’m about to say ‘claim her,’ but I guess I’ve already strung too many words in a row, because I croissant onto the floor.
🥐Jessy’s thighs are spread wide, inviting me to lick her core, and what am I doing? Lying on the carpeted floor in croissant form while Mac is lying next to her in eclair form.
🥐Unless I can get Rune’s talking and Bax’s anxiety under control, I’ll be spending my time with my mate as an eclair instead of f- her with my eclair. And I don’t mean the one I shift into. My c—k. I mean my c—k.

I have laughed til I hurt while reading this. It’s pure insanity and I loved it.
I love when erotic novellas like this don’t take themselves too seriously and lean into the ridiculousness of the set up. Mia nailed it.
Also, this book has some of the funniest one liners I’ve read in a book. I can’t stop giggling. Examples below:
“Internally, I sigh. Externally, I’m stuck on the floor because I’m a fucking eclair.”
And this magnificent gem:
“I…” I say the first thing that comes to mind, “want to fuck you.” And then, bam, cannoli.”
10/10 would recommend. I’ll be cackling all day about this.

I just lost all respect for myself having read this… but 3 stars just because I couldn’t stop laughing.

October 16, 2022
Different and Hilarious . . .
Jessy is entered in a bake off competition to help out her business. She goes to check in and finds that there was a problem and they had to cancel her room. Of course, no other rooms are now available. But three shifters overheard her dilemma and invited her to share their room. She is their fated mate, so things should get quite interesting. As Bayans, odd things set off their shifting. Rune is oddly quiet until you learn that he shifts if he speaks too many words at once, Mac shifts spontaneously if either of the others shift, and Bax is an anxious shifter so the unexpected sets him off into a shift. You can imagine how one shift sets off the other two. How will Jessy react when her new roommates start shifting into… well, grab your copy and find out. This is one you may not even be able to guess at!
This was certainly a different experience and I love the laughter-evoking silliness. Above all, have fun!

Time for the weird read of the month! That’s right: a reverse harem with shifters that turn into pastries and they’re fated mates.
One is a cannoli. One is a croissant. One is an eclair. Their magical powers are eating as much as they want without getting full or gaining weight. One can’t talk too much or he’ll shift. Then another is a sympathetic shifter. The third shifts when he’s anxious. This is truly ridiculous and I love it.
Pastry puns galore!
So I really loved this but after reading other insane shifter stories I definitely was wanting their cum to taste like sugar or something. There also could have been more sex. Would still recommend for the hilarity and novelty.
Because this is corny there’s food play with the men that become food.
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️

Hilarious , ridiculous but totally unrealistic read. The only thing I enjoyed about this was that the main character was a plus size woman wearing regular clothing.

“And then BAM. Cannoli.”
I haven’t laughed so hard while reading a book than this one. It’s just so stupid that I can’t help but love it. As a fellow pastry lover and curvaceous woman, I understand how three hot af bakers loving you would be sexy as hell.
🌶️🌶️/5

Recommended 100%.

2.5 stars
You can see the author didn't take themselves seriously at all and the result is a very funny and absurd erotic fated mates to pastry-shifters story.

My bookclub made me do it! I'm giving it 3 stars on the hilarity alone. It was absolutely ridiculous but so funny that I laughed outloud more than I would like to admit.

Holy Cannoli! This book is a whole lot of sweet with just enough spice to make it one hilarious romcom.
Jessy is a baker participating in a baking competition. When things go south, she finds herself rooming with 3 sexy competitors. As things heat up, Jessy finds her wildest dreams coming true when she can have unlimited pastries and the cream filling too.
If you’re looking for a cute read with sexy bakers, unlimited pastries, and shifters, then you need this spicy romcom in your life.

This was so fucking unhinged and I loved it. I felt like it was a watpad shifter novella because the writing was very cringy but I think people forget that the book doesn’t have to be the best thing you’ve ever read to be five stars. If you enjoyed it, laughed, texted your friends about it because it was THAT wild - that’s a 5 star to me.
My sister and I were actually cackling at some of these lines. If you want to read something unhinged and laugh while imagining some hot guys “croissant on the floor” and eclair beside them while the cannoli is banging you (I guess literally because they’re still sentient 😹) I say enjoy this was so insane lmfao
Some of my faves:
“No one ever notices the short, curvy girl unless she's handing them their pastries. But anyone who's tasted what I bake doesn't overlook me twice. Hey, maybe I should shove a Danish or two in their mouths.”
“He shifts into a croissant. Mac turns into an eclair.”
“I guess I've already strung too many words in a row, because I croissant onto the floor.”
"Internally, I sigh. Externally, l'm stuck on the floor because I'm a fucking eclair."
"..." I say the first thing that comes to mind, "want to fuck you." And then, bam, cannoli."
I’m screaming lmfaooo this was great
Please enjoy the wild ride this novella takes you on lmfao

Ugh, you know.. I really enjoy monsters romance and other out of the box romance but this was not it.
First.. I quite found funny the fact that they shift into pastries.. but that did not play any relevance to the story at all but to make it awkward.
These shifters have no control when they shift and yes, they shift during sex, which I felt frustrated on behalf of the FMC. Can you imagine having 3 guys all hot on you and then they shift into a cannoli and a croissant IN THE MIDDLE OF IT and you are just like.. ok..
So the only scene that there was spice it was not hot at all.
Then we have to address the fact that there is a some fatphobic elements in this story. Our heroin is super self-conscious of her curves and even after the guys show interest in her the only thing that she feels excited to maybe become a shifter is the fact that she will be able to eat everything she wants without gaining weight.. like.. really?! That's the ONLY good thing?! Couldn't we not make it about weight??
Anyway.. bleh.. I'm glad it was 60 pages and it was just 20 min of my life.
