Title: One Night in Bliss (The Dae Diaries #0.5)
Author: AK Nevermore
Genre: Urban Fantasy Romance
Book Blurb:
Envy Starr is a halfling with a bad attitude and a drinking problem. When her best—ok, only friend—asks her to play wing-woman at an exclusive club so he can meet the Fae of his dreams, things take a nosedive before they even get through the door.Handsy bouncers, society girls with a vendetta, and that freaking forty-something in a captain's cap... Yeah, super lame. Silver lining, the stage talent's way more entertaining one-on-one than when he's performing for the crowd.If only that whole virgin-by-necessity crap wasn't a thing...
My Review:
Before Envy Starr receives her shocking news in Flame & Shadow, she’s living life like there’s no tomorrow. Her snarky attitude and excess drinking are a part of her persona as a halfling. When her only friend asks her to be his wing-woman at an exclusive club so he can hook up, she’s game. But like anything involving Envy, things go sideways quicker than diving into quicksand. Try as she might, Envy can’t seem to lose the only thing that matters: her virginity. She might as well enjoy the floor show.
One Night in Bliss is a prequel to Flame & Shadow, a taste of one of my favorite urban fantasy heroines. The descriptive narration plays well with the world-building to create a world that is familiar yet with magical beings such as fae, demons, halflings, and more. You’ll be drawn into this world and won’t want to leave.
The star of One Night in Bliss is Envy. Her devil-may-care attitude along with her inner thoughts makes this a must read, especially if you love morally gray characters. Once you get a sampling of Envy, you’ll want to read books one and two. I can’t wait for more books about Envy.
My Rating: 5+ stars
