This book had an interesting concept and I love a good monster boyfriend, especially multiple, but I really didn’t love any of these characters. I didn’t feel a connection to them or feel that they really had one to each other. The plot seemed random at points and the spicy scenes were very random and out of place at times. I enjoyed it okay but probably won’t read again.

Amazing

This was a different story then I normally read. This wasn't a dark read but the story line kept me hooked. I girl capture 3 very different monsters and brings the spice.

Hotness

This was so good and I could not believe how it ended… it seems like that’s it but no there are so many unanswered questions!
The dynamic with Elio, Az and Devyn I really loved and definitely want to see more of their relationship development and interactions in this next book but damn rafe came out of nowhere… I wasn’t prepared for that dynamic but ooohhh did I love it.
I’m really excited for book 2 and what it brings.

Rapid shift from terror to too stupid to live


Devyn starts off anxious AF while doing her Uber driving. She considers not even taking a job because of the increased drive length. She’s emotionally battered from a terrible and borderline abusive relationship. But then she suddenly turns into the ultra confident woman. It’s explained away in the name of “she’s curious”, but still didn’t jive with her character intro.
Also… a bit confused about the speed of the fast burn for her. But that didn’t bother me as much.
The spice was fun and it had a good mix of MMCs. The plot also had some potential.

Spice: 5/5

Triggers: violence, gore, force exhibitionism, dubcon

Spicy Monster RH

There is some seriously good smut in here. Was not expecting that surprise in the last spicy scene at all but some might find it to be a very pleasant surprise. I love Elio and Az and Rafe is a jerk but so sexy that it works. But the MC, Devyn, is super annoying. Especially with her “insatiable curiosity” that continually gets her into deep crap throughout the whole book. But other than that, I really enjoyed the book and I’m looking forward to Part Two!

Awful. Doesn’t even end on a cliffhanger

Smoking hot read but I'm a little disappointed to find this as a standalone! I could have used a few more chapters with each of the characters (and maybe a dozen or more of them all together ifyaknowwhatImean.) The characters felt well-rounded, but the relationship needed a bit more oomph imho. However, the other realm has a whole lot of potential if the author wants to write more in this world and I would gladly read it! Lots of fun monster traits and a sassy FMC made this a very enjoyable read!
