FMC description:

brown hair, 28 yrs old, caring, animal lover, has bad luck, lonely.

"Night Mother knows, I'll be clinging to your giant cock like a suffocating sea star until the day I die. Just try and get rid of me."

She held onto his tusks and kissed him over and over until he pushed her inside, laughing, and closed the door so she'd go to bed.

My opinion:

This was a low-angst read perfect for my anxiety, I didn't expected to like this as much as I did.

I loved how both of them were so caring about helping animals in need and protecting each other.

And everytime he called her "little heart" I melted, it was so cute. Also how he was always carrying her.

There were some things that didn't make this book perfect such as: very simple plot, if they had a new plan to discover who trafficked the animals, or in general more about the sanctuary or the creatures in that world.

But the book would have needed to be longer to explain all that or to describe some scenes a little slower.

At times it felt like things were a little glossed bc the author couldn't afford to get too deep in those scenes. Like she had to tell instead of showing. But if you see the book as a novella, it's easier to overlook those details.

I can't wait to read the next Skarr book, or more about the author.

This was a short and sweet monster romance, and I was pleasantly surprised with how much I liked it. I liked how the main characters care about animals and try to help them.

This was the biggest size difference monster romance I've ever read. Patrek is a giant, truly. He will not fit, ladies; that's answered right away. I wasn't sure how the spicy scenes were going to work, but Patrek and Maja figured out how to please each other. Be warned that the scenes are descriptive, and there's lots of liquids...

I did not give it a full five stars because I wish it was a little longer, and they had a little more time to get to know each other in the beginning.
