Should I read in order?
This is a stand alone novel.

Basic plot:
Vi inherits a cheese shop and is shocked when she finds 4 cheese were-shifters in the basement...

Give this a try if you want:
- contemporary paranormal-ish
- why choose (with some M/M love) – our heroine has 4 boyfriends
- OCD rep (heroine)
- were-cheese – these heroes shift into cheese during the daylight hours
- soooooooooooooo cheesy...like literally and figuratively and any other way I can say it
- medium to higher steam – 4-ish scenes

Ages:
- Heroine is 25. The heroes seem to be ‘frozen’ at the ages they were cursed, which I would guess is 20s, possibly early 30s? Though at least some of them have been alive for hundreds of years

First line:
On the corner sits a cheese shop full of painful memories, dark shadows, and the unfortunate name of Goudafellas.

My thoughts:
I was thinking I would love this one! But sadly it didn’t work for me. I think the humor wasn’t my thing – it was too cheesy (! Yes, I said it!) and I think others that like this style of humor will appreciate this book way more than me! It was a bit too slap stick and too many one liners.

“Climb aboard the cheese train,” he cries out and I laugh.
“Now departing for ‘Umph, oh god,’ station,” Cam adds.
“Are you ready?” I ask
“Choo-choo!” he shouts and I guide him inside me.


It also just felt really long to me. And that is probably just a personal thing, because I’m liking short books right now. And when I read novels like this, I am used to them being a much lower page count. I think I was hoping for more depth, but I didn’t get to know any of the characters super well in this novel. Not as well as I wanted to. So the page count just felt really long to me and I kept sitting it down and picking it up.

Don’t let my thoughts deter you though! If you have been craving 4 hot men in your bed and also adore cheese, why not give this one a go? 😂

Quotes/spoiler-y thoughts:Any mistakes/typos are my own

On top of random piles of clothing rest three cheeses. Two are white rounds and the third is the hard yellow rectangle from last night. “Brie?” I whisper to the softest cheese. “Cam?” to the one with a rind. They don’t answer.
They can’t, because they’re cheese.
---
“Did I…?” Brie glances down to where his cock is spilling into the neon green condom., then stars are me. “Die?”
I laugh and wrap him in my arms. “I don’t think so. Why?”
He brushes the tips of his fingers down my cheek. “Because I’m inside of Heaven.”

 

Content warnings: These should be taken as a minimum of what to expect. It’s very possible I have missed some.

- abusive parenting
- heroes are cheese shifters that were trapped as cheese for decades?
- heroine has OCD struggles – they include intrusive thoughts about bad things happening to people she cares about
