I had heard about this for a while, and I was not disappointed! I was pleasantly surprised with how well this was written and the world-building for this alien romance. 

I love sweet, protective Ketahn. I didn't rate this a full 5 stars because I wish Ivy had talked to Ketahn about consent at some point, especially given her sexual history (past abusive boyfriend). I give Ketahn a little bit of break because he's a giant spider man with some strong basic instincts.

He "claims" her without explaining his feelings or how things work. She is attracted to him and enjoys it, but I wish there had been a conversation beforehand.

The smut didn’t start until 84% of the way through which, considering I was under the impression this was more smut than romance (my bad), was disappointing. I could see why it was set up that way but it was a bit disappointing. The ending had me enraptured though and I’m excited to see what happens in book 2.

I can't believe I'm going to admit this... I loved the book and fell in love with AN ALIEN SPIDER! But at the same time, it's normal since Ketahn is more human than many humans in real life and love interests in other books of different genres. It may also be because I have been introduced to the world of monster romance in the last year and have become an ardent fan of the genre. In conclusion, excellent storytelling is accompanied by an original and creative world, a perfect amount of spice at the right moments and lovable characters with ideal chemistry.

I expected I enjoy it but not this much. I’m normally a slow reader but I got through this quicker than expected and definitely enjoyed each bit. The plot was immaculate and yes there was actual plot and it was super intriguing or at least to me. The cliffhanger really got me but I’m glad I waited till the whole trilogy was out.
