The story of our little sweet baby Hulk and weirdly hot psychotic Lizard Daddy was everything I was promised. Dark, fun, hot and steamy, among other things. π₯
The internal rambling of the characters is pure gold and watching baby Hulks bi-awakening is the most adorable thing ever. π
Why you should read this?
π¦ Villains & Superheroes in tight suits
π¦ Forced proximity
π¦ Found family
π¦ Unhinged and witty banter
π¦ Very possessive fated mates
π¦ Fancy monster smut stuff
π¦ Very questionable morals β if you love red flags, youβll love this.

This book made me realize that apparently I have a thing for gargoyles. And Iβm not mad about it. π
It might also be the case that I just have a thing for males written by Alessa Thorn. Whatever the answer is, I loved this book. I loved Vladik and Zori. Loved every moment of it. β€οΈ
And I canβt deny how much I loved this Witcher reference. π€©

This was fun, haywire, friends/rivals to lovers romcom, but itβs DARK. β οΈ Annual murder competitions, accidental cannibalism π and did I mention that they are both serial unalivers? πͺ
There must have been drugs or something between these pages bc I have no other explanation for why this was so ridiculously good. It had no business being as good as it was. And yet here I am, obsessed. π€©
It has been over a month since I read it, but it still haunts my thoughts. And not only because I have not been able to eat cookies and cream ice cream after this.π¦ Or orzo pasta. π
And for the record this was absolutely worth the trauma. I can live without one type of pasta and one ice cream flavor. And even knowing that beforehand I would pick this up in a heartbeat! I loved Rowan, Sloane and EVERYTHING in it. β€οΈβ€οΈ
If you still need more convincing, it has also:
πͺ Grumpy x Sunshine
π He falls first
πͺ Touch her/him and die
π One bed ποΈ
πͺ Murder
π Chaos
πͺ Dual POV
π Spice

Everything in this books is just perfect *chefs kiss*. π
Zahir is so much more than what we got a see in King of Swords (which btw was amazing too). And heβs just perfect for Ezra. (Or me ππΌββοΈ). Needless to say Iβm head over heels in love with this couple. π
If you havenβt read this already, you definitely should! π€©

The Risk by S.T. Abby
I loved this novel from the start. Having both Lanaβs and Loganβs POVβs makes it even better. This is dark, intense and absurd. π€

So female serial killers are my new favorite thing. πͺ
The set up in this books is so delicious from the start! Female serial killer falls in love with FBI agent whoβs trying to catch her. This is a house of cards just waiting for everything to blow up in our faces and I couldnβt be more excited to find out what happens then! π€©

The Reaper by RuNyx
After that iconic kiss and claiming each other at the end of The Predator Tristan and Morana are trying figure what happens next.
There are still questions to be answered and mysteries to be solved. Some mysteries gain light and some are still left to discover. Dramatic shit happens, emotions are involved and more questions arise.
I loved how Tristan and Morana slowly let each other in a bit by bit. I think after all that they are indestructible. And teaming up with Dante, together they are a storm to be feared. πͺοΈ
This book was beautifully written as was The Predator. Iβm excited to get to know more about Dante and Amara in the next book. π
