Short biography
Jane Washington writes constantly. When she's not writing, she's dreaming in diction, or counting down the seconds until she can be alone with her laptop again.
She can't "write drunk" and "edit sober", because when she's drunk, she thinks she's german, and trying to proof a chapter written entirely in germanic, mobster-speak can get annoying.
She loves the idea of fresh fruit and OCD-like cleanliness, but it isn't her reality.
In her spare time, she complains about having no spare time.

Magic that binds you to two other people and a crazy stalker that's trying to stop the bond to take effect. This book gets quite dark, so beware.

I never really searched up books with a reverse harem and honestly, I went into this book without noticing that tag. Now, what I want to read is a book where relationships make sense. No forced triangle just for the sake of adding that guy that we all know is there just to spice the actual relationship.

This book is fulfilling that, in my opinion. We get a girl that gets bonded to 4 guys by magic. I don't want to spoil too much, but let's just say that not all those bonds are welcome. One is forcing her to get into a more intimate relationship with a person she loves platonically. I am quite interested in this one. It remains to be seen how it will be resolved.

So yeah, I find this magic bond part quite interesting. Especially because it seems it's not just our main character that got some unfortunate paring.

And let's add to that, that she is dealing with an abusive drunkard of a father, no money, and some very creepy stalker.

Despite all these dark themes, it seems to me that the story is trying to be hopeful. I feel like after the first part I am still not sure what is this story really going to be about. It could be very good or it could go very bad.

It was a really light reading, I would have loved more world bulding and a little more development, but overall, I liked the main character and the Abcurse brothers!

While the five Abcurse brothers are trying to prevent Willa from killing herself by tripping over something or whatnot, they discover a dweller rebellion is brewing. And even more.. it seems chaos has its name written all over it.

My take on the book:
Yes, I caved, I had to buy it... I just love the brothers so much. Seriously, I need 5 of my own (looking at you, Universe!) Damn you writers :D (just kidding, just kidding!!)
While Willa is rly trying her best to not cause any more trouble than she already does on a daily basis, the brothers now have a 'pact' that keeps everything disgustingly platonic... well... most of the time. Which isn't easy as Willa needs to be close to at least one of them for her fractured soul to quiet down and not hurt.
It was an easy and fun read, the flow was good and it was well written. No errors (or rly minor ones) as far as I can tell. Not as much character development as I would have liked, though that didn't rly bother me. While the plot is fairly obvious it doesn't take away from the pleasure of reading the book. I enjoyed the book very much and I would recommend this series to anyone looking for a few hours of fun, some face palming and some rly delicious men.
