I did, however, dig the world building, and I wanted to see where Katee Robert was going to go with Carver City, so I kept reading. Also, while I don’t want to yuck anyone’s yum, I have a knee jerk cringe reaction to any “Baby Girl” or “Daddy” stuff. I’m a fan of clear and explicit boundaries, as it happens. Things get clarified a bit further along, but the whole situation started off rocky for me. The consent is decidedly fuzzy at the outset of this book.

Here’s where we get to what I didn’t love. Despite being a literal murderer and super dangerous, Jafar is hot and Jasmine has always had a thing for him. The spoils of said territory apparently include Jasmine. Let’s discuss.ĭesperate Measures– Have you ever imagined what would happen if Jasmine and Jafar hooked up? No? Well, Katee Robert has! Jasmine’s dad was a sadistic crime boss and Aladdin (or Ali) is a scary sleazeball, so Jafar ruthlessly unseats Jasmine’s father (because murder) and takes over the territory. Romance readers who merely tolerate the love scenes? Probably not going to be your jam. I have a very high tolerance for book related bedroom shenanigans and these were sometimes pushing my boundaries. And you know what? If any of those things are deal breakers for you, it’s totally fine to NOPE out. ALSO these books more or less revolve around the goings on of a polyamorous BDSM club, so you should, um, know that going in. Taking out the steamy scenes would eliminate like half the books. They aren’t like the type of romance novel where if you’re not comfortable with steamy scenes you can just sort of skip over them. Now, before I get into details, y’all should know these books are firmly in erotica territory. I really, really enjoyed Katee Robert’s take on Greek Mythology, so when I realized that she’d also written a series that was basically smutty fan-fic of Disney villains, I thought it sounded like fun.
