A human and a fae go on a book tour to compete for a publishing contract, whats the worst that could happen? This is a super cozy, rivals to lovers romance, both the main characters are likeable and the side characters are almost even better. This is the first book by Tessonja Odette that I’ve read, and I would be interested in reading in more of her work. The authors other books are set in the same world so it’ll be fun to go back and see the character I’ve already come to love. Even though I didn’t read the other books first I didn’t feel like I was missing out, it seems like you can read them in any order. There’s a really helpful glossary in the beginning but I didn’t need to refer to it. Overall this is a really cute and fun read. 

Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, The Nerd Fam PR and Tessonja Odette for this e-ARC
