Finally the book is starting to grow on me. Still not crazy about the portrayal of Harriet's character. How does EVERYONE hate her? Wouldn't she have to be somewhat charismatic to be successful in business? But still, I'm like the blend of the cozy genre and the shifter genre. It's an interesting combination and seeing the same characters in multiple books makes you feel like you know them.

Never any foreplay in Zoe Chant books. Just first kiss, touch the boobs a couple times, and bam! Lady is all about the penetration. Which, fine. It just isn't my thing, which is why the sex scenes in these books are sort of meh imo

"batting mascara-crusted lashes at him" just when I was actually starting to like this one....the same shit as the last book, absolute villification of sexually-assertive women who like wearing makeup and care about their appearance.

So one chapter in and NOW Harriet seems like a bitch. Still not loving that the villain female character is so often concerned with her appearance and sexually assertive-when we consistently see those traits given to villains it is a vilification of them.
