BLURB:
Private investigator Sloane Beaumont should be enjoying his recent engagement to eldritch god Azaethoth the Lesser, AKA Loch. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have time for a pre-honeymoon period.
The trouble starts with a deceptively simple missing persons case. That leads to the discovery of mass kidnappings, nefarious secret experiments, and the revelation that another ancient god is trying to bring about the end of the world by twisting humans into an evil army.
Just another day at the office.
Sloane does his best to juggle wedding planning, stopping his fiancé from turning the mailman inside out, and meeting his future godly in-laws while working the case, but they’re also being hunted by a strange young man with incredible abilities. With the wedding date looming closer, Sloane and Loch must combine their powers to discover the truth—because it’s not just their own happy-ever-after at stake, but the fate of the world….
REVIEW:
Good gravy! If Loch wasn’t enough to make you laugh your head off at his antics, his mother and sister make an appearance and it’s even funnier. I am so loving this series.
We have another mystery and if you’re into tentacle love, this is it for you. I love it for the mystery and it’s so funny. It’s also a book to keep you on your toes. There are hard moments that make you want to cry at the decision that had to be made, but as hard as it may hurt, it’s for the best.
For Sloane, I really did feel so bad for him. He’s been put in an awkward situation again in trying to find out why certain people are disappearing. And when he finds out, with the help of others, he dreads what he might have to do. And I hate that that decision is always stuck in his hand. Unfortunately, it comes with being blessed by gods, but it still sucks.
I have to say I love Loch’s mom and sister, though. And don’t ask me to try to spell their names lol. Even with all that’s riding on Sloane’s shoulders, they don’t blame him or hold it against him at what he’s had and having to do. And that’s a huge thing.
There’s so much in this book that makes it so lovable. I can’t tell them all because… hey, spoilers. But it’s worth the read. I’ve had so much fun with this series. And I can’t wait to see book 3.
