Hijinks With a Hellhound (Hidden Species #3)




Not sure where my reading process is going now...I'm just along for the ride. Here is Louisa Master's "Hijinks With a Hellhound." It's the third novel in her Hidden Species series.

["I’m a one-and-done kind of hellhound… I don’t catch feeeeeeeelings…

Once upon a time, my first and last relationship taught me that romantic love isn’t enough to stop your boyfriend from trying to kill you. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. My awesomeness is now strictly reserved for one-nighters and casual hookups. Sure, my friends seem to be matching up in romantic bliss, but screw that—I’m not interested.

Besides, things are heating up at the Community of Species Government, and I’m right in the thick of it all. Those bad guys are going down—and not in the good way. They might seem to have the drop on us right now, but we’re going to turn the tables on them. Even if it means going on a mission with Aidan Byrne.

I’m still not happy about the way Aidan handled things with my bestest bestie a few months back, even if he did turn out to be right. Plus, there’s something about him that rubs my fur in the wrong direction. He’s the kind of guy who thinks karaoke is only for college kids and looks down on me for licking my own balls. He also thinks that just because he’s the species leader, he’s in charge.

Too bad for him, I’ve never backed away from a challenge… even if it is unnervingly sexy and really bendy. A hookup won’t lead to feelings… right?"]

I looooooove Alistair! He's just so relatable to me. Over the top, obsessed with his found family, snack-y, cuddly, puppy-eyes and pouting when he's upset. He just wants everyone to be friends, even if he's a shit-stirrer. 

And Aidan is good for him. Just as Alistair is good for Aidan. They balance each other out, make each other better men. 

I like how this series has an overall plot, but each get's wrapped up juuuuust enough for a HEA for the couple and juuuuust enough to compel you to keep reading. 

Plus the sheer amount of times I full-on, out-loud cackled?!?! YES! All of the yes. This book set up the finale of this series as well as one, if not multiple, spin-offs. 

Trigger Warnings: kidnapping, violence, past medial experimentation, past basically human/species trafficking, cults, past doings up and future threats of genocide, and more.
