I was introduced to Mimi Jean’s brilliant stories recently,
and fell immediately in love. Funny, full of angst, pain, heartbreak and gods….
I just couldn’t resist! And all through her Accidentally In Love series, there
was one character with whom I loved; Yup, it was Cimil.
She’s
funny, smart, egotistical, narcissistic, mysterious... and totally batshit
crazy. What’s not to love? Needless to say, I couldn’t wait to find out more
about her! And ‘Roberto” her on/off romance, and this novella did not
disappoint. It begins before the events of any of the other novels, revealing
the origins of Cimil’s crazy. During this time period she meets Narmer/Roberto.
I admit,
I wasn’t sold on him at first. His ego was far, far too big for any normal
person to even like him – but then I
remembered that Cimil was the heroin
of the story, and he fit her perfectly. Throughout the novella he began to grow
on me regardless, as the layers of narcissism were pulled back and an actual
relationship began to form between the characters.
All in all I
had many laugh out loud moments, a few “oh no he didn’t!” moments and a lot of
fun reading Cimil (and her unicorn’s!) story. Finally, we get to learn more
about Minky! Seriously, there is a unicorn in this story. Read it if only for
that.
I give it 4/5.
