All children are told fairytales. Some are epic adventures with high stakes and exciting twists but others were tales of pitiful princesses trapped in boring towers pining for their prince charmings to come and rescue them. But one young woman always hated those stories. Why didn’t they get up and rescue themselves? Little did she know that her own fate would take a similarly ironic turn. Because now, here she is. Stuck. In a tower. Turns out, when a dragon holds you hostage, he doesn’t just let you get up and leave.
Who knew?
And just when she thinks she sees hope on the horizon, that hope is smashed to bits by—you guessed it—another damn dragon.

REVIEW:
Continuing with the series, as you may know, I read the first book, That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon, at the beginning of last year and was not impressed, mainly because I was promised it would be something totally different from what it actually was.
This detail aside, I unknowingly jumped and read the 3rd book instead of the 2nd one, but it is alright, and I still enjoyed the ride. Don’t really know how it happened. Maybe I got confused, thinking this one was the 2nd; I’m not sure. Mommy brain here!
Anywho, this time around, knowing what I was getting myself into, I must say that I did enjoy the humour and the dialogue between the characters. The plot was still not there for me personally, and it was vague. Considering it was enjoyable. What I was not a fan of were the overly explicit sexual scenes, which is fine, nothing wrong with that per se, it is just not my thing. Although I should say that here there were not as many as in the first book, as far as I remember.
There were some amusing moments, and I really enjoyed the author’s writing style and sense of humour, if I left the explicit sex scenes out of the equation.
Overall, a solid 3-star read for me. I will read the 2nd book so I can complete the trilogy.
