Size matters. Pixies are supposed to be petite, beautifully lithe creatures with gossamer wings. Sporting luscious, ombre pink hair and fluttering pink wings, Phil meets two out of three of those criteria. At over six feet tall, no one would dare call Phil petite. As a home-and-hearth pixie, Phil yearns to find a home and family he can bond to. When no one’s willing to hire a pixie of his stature, Phil is forced to find work elsewhere. Turns out, pixies make terrible bouncers. The sudden death of Sedrick’s brother and sister-in-law left Sedrick Voss a pack of one—plus two young, traumatized were children. Sedrick needs help. He needs a home-and-hearth pixie. But pixies are small, delicate creatures nowhere near sturdy enough to stand up to a couple of growing werewolves. Phil seems like the perfect answer—a pixie that might be able to physically withstand small werewolf teeth and claws. Phil is overjoyed, finally able to do a job that speaks to his heart and soul. But peace is a hard-won commodity. Sedrick is in the middle of a nasty custody battle with his niece and nephew’s maternal grandfather—one of the most arrogantly deceitful werewolf alphas to ever lead a pack. If their grandfather gets custody, Sedrick’s niece and nephew are in for a lifetime of manipulation. Between the custody battle, noxiously invasive garden gnomes, and fairy lawyers, Phil and Sedrick struggle to keep their home and family safe. Werewolves and pixies don’t mate. Phil and Sedrick are about to challenge that misconception. Perfectly Imperfect Pixie is a m/m standalone title with a HEA, a rough but kind werewolf, fairy lawyers, vampire bar owners, dwarf miners, questionably intelligent humans, pesky garden gnomes, and charming pixies.

This was sweet. Very, very sweet.
Some smut readers in the comments can't recognize a slow burn even if it's drowning them in pixie dust lol
I admit that often times I am one of them smut readers. As a romance reader in general, of course I love some good smutty scenes but only under the condition that it fits the story being told, and here I believe less was more.
Why? Because the romantic storyline slowly fell in place along with the general plot. The pace of this book was really good and, personally, I find more value in a good story with good characters and good pacing than just some random smut thrown there for thirsty readers. There are enough books out there whose sole focus is that and they're good in their own way. This story was something else entirely and that is good too.
I have more thoughts but I'm very sleepy. Actually, this is probably very poorly written... if only I could care more lol but I'm just very tired. I will check this later to fix whatever is wrong and to say more about the pacing I praised and the character development.
I really enjoyed this book and coming to GR and seeing other readers thoughts I was just dissapointed in the reviews I saw and wanted to vent haha I'm going to sleep now.
