The Chef Caters to the Reaper: A Nocturne Falls Universe Story

De: Jax Cassidy

Narrado por: B.J. Harrison

Reaping souls for over two centuries can be such a bore.

Breaking every rule in the Heavenly guidebook, reaper Stasia Tien has been secretly moonlighting as a seasonal catering chef in the quirky town of Nocturne Falls. She’s managed to balance her double life for the past decade or two, but as Valentine’s Day approaches, her sous chef and reaper colleague is unexpectedly called away weeks before the elaborate charity dinner for which Stasia’s responsible.

Forced to find a last-minute replacement, she has no choice except to collect a debt from handsome celebrity chef du jour, Balthazar Dash. Years ago, Stasia saved Zar, and although she's responsible for guiding souls into the afterlife, this is one rogue soul she’d rather keep all for herself....

Chef Zar owes Stasia his life - literally. Living on a second chance, he’s long forgotten a bargain made during a moment of desperation until the mysterious reaper pops into his busy restaurant. He’s been living the American dream with several hit shows under his belt. But Zar is ready to take a step back to better care for his young daughter.

Exiting his current lifestyle won’t be easy, but perhaps the gorgeous diversion Stasia provides is exactly what he needs to get back into Heaven’s good graces....

i love NF & NFU!

however, this story left something to be desired. i knowtheu all have some amount of predictability, but this one more than others. the storyline was vague and honestly, kind of boring
.. i’ve never given a bad review to Any NF or NFU story, so this isn’t really easy, but it just wasn’t that good…

Loved it

Jax Cassidy has written an excellent installment in the Nocturne Falls Universe series. Her characters are well developed and quickly become part of your circle of friends. I have enjoyed this installment more than others that have come along. I highly recommend this book/audiobook to paranormal fantasy lovers.

Nice

A nice short story filled with dedication towards love and Adventure. A great short book

2.5/3 Stars, Eh

Unfortunately, this is my least liked addition to the NF universe. Aside from the child character's cute portrayal, the narrator saves the entire experience because of his amazingness and NF familiarities. The story though leaves a lott to be desired. The romance goes from 0 to 75 to 100 in a matter of minutes towards the end, so it isn't believable. The main female character makes some poor decisions, and I'm disappointed with what happens with the cat we came to enjoy.. It's just too basic and not on par with the others.

Disjointed

The narrator did a great job, but couldn’t save this disjointed story. I generally have enjoyed the different writing styles of the authors in the Nocturne Universe, but the characters of this tale were not well developed & the storyline did not make much sense.

Confusing & Disappointing

The ending was so confusing it spoiled the book. Nothing was clear about how things were resolved. I, for one, won't be reading this author again.
