When I inherited my uncle’s old house, I expected the chipped paint, dust bunnies, (sort of) and a sprinkle of nostalgia. It was the sweet escape from a parent’s house every thirty-something year old woman needs. What I didn’t expect was the charming, pleasant, and tea loving force that would turn my world upside down.
The force in question came after reading a seemingly whimsically innocent nursery rhyme I found from a book long forgotten from childhood. A demon, who I unknowingly helped jailbreak.
What else was I supposed to do when faced with a handsome demon, but invite him to tea? I didn’t anticipate the fast friendship that blossomed between us. When the demon asked for my help to break his contractual obligation, I couldn’t resist. Except I didn’t realize agreeing to be his fake girlfriend would blur the lines of pretend and reality.
His freedom is on the line … but so is my heart.
Loved this book. It was sweet how Mendax fell for Davina.
The book made me want all the tea bar one and you will know it when you read
it. I’ve tried something that sounded like that and just … nope. The overall
story was sweet and an easy read. I want more in this world and with the
characters in it. The secondary characters were just as fun to read as Mendax
and Davina.
