In short, this is a romance fantasy retelling of beauty and the beast, where beast stays in "monster" form.
I was really looking forward to reading a dark monster rendition of Beauty & the Beast, but this book is so absurd that I laughed out loud - and not in a good way. If you are expecting a plot, characterization, emotional development arcs, and basically a story then don't read this. You will find none of it.
BUT if you are wanting a quick read that is 99% k!nk trope monster smut then by all means read on. I personally found the smut to read as less sexy and just plain ridiculous which is why I rated this so low. In my opinion, if a book is going to go all in on monster smut, then it needs to be hot and for me this wasn’t. The writing was so clunky and unpleasent that I ended up skimming the majory of it :/
