That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon (Mead Mishaps, 1)

Spice trader Cinnamon's quiet life is turned upside down when she ends up on a quest with a fiery demon, in this irreverently quirky rom-com fantasy that is sweet, steamy, and funny as hell.

All she wanted to do was live her life in peace--maybe get a cat, expand the family spice farm. Really, anything that didn't involve going on an adventure where an orc might rip her face off. But they say the goddess has favorites, and if so, Cin is clearly not one of them.

After Cin saves the demon Fallon in a wine-drunk stupor, Fallon reveals that all he really wants to do is kill an evil witch enslaving his people. And who can blame him? But now he's dragging Cinnamon along for the ride whether she likes it or not. On the bright side, at least he keeps burning off his shirt....

This is a very cute book, and was entertaining. Personally I would have like some more time to establish the universe and the rules of this fantasy world. After they were done in the swamp (which was my favorite part) everything just happened so quickly. Cute story that is worth the read, but I would probably not give it a re-read.

Okay let's get real. I DID NOT expect to like this book. I thought the title was ridiculous. I only bought it because the author is coming to comic con in my town next month so I thought I'd give it a try. This book is HILARIOUS!! Uproarously funny. It's has a few spice scenes but mainly I just love the two main characters and their banter. I love all the characters they meet on their journey. I can't wait for more! Great characters, Great writing and a good plot!

This was everything I hoped it was AND MORE! This book kept my attention from start to finish, not once did I lose interest in the middle. Even when it's a little predictable, the author did an amazing job at keeping attention. It's hilarious, down to earth rom-com. Not my genre but this definitely has made to my tops.

šŸŽ§ I enjoyed this way more than expected. It’s definitely RomCom vibes which I don’t like but it worked for this book because it was fantasy sprinkled with some spice; ā€œsprinkle it with a little bit of cinnamonā€ (iykyk šŸ˜‚). If my DnD sessions had some smut this would be it. LoL. This book gave me the enjoyment of a romantic DnD campaign and surprisingly I want to read the rest of the series. Plus… black girl magic! I’m here for it. The voiceover actress was great and brought the characters to life. She does have a southern twang so I listened to it at a 1.5x speed.
