You could read it as a stand-alone, but it definitely works best if you've read the rest of the series, starting with Semi-Charmed. It also works best if you like strong, kick-ass heroines and the sometimes befuddled alpha heroes who love them. You also might want to skip this one if you don't have a healthy appreciation for characters who cuss, and snark. Lots and lots of snark. Happy reading!
