The mental geometry and spatial awareness that goes into writing such detailed scenes of passion is nothing short of impressive. Some weird moments of tension left me a little ?? But over all solid.

Not going to lie I came into this hoping, against hope, that I was going to get something that reminded me of the 90's Gargoyles cartoons and Lark did just that and then some!

I loved this way more than I could have anticipated. It's well written, has very relatable characters, a found family trope, and so much good dialogue in between the consensual sex which is sensual and steamy and just so freaking seductive that I envy Grace! 

Legit envy of a fictional character in a fictional world with her reverse harem of gargoyles!

I love this book. To be fair she is my favorite author. I love the writing style. The amazing consent is so hard to find in monster romance.  Her smut is hot but not physically impossible. I honestly have nothing to change. It’s definitely a 4 pepper spice. Lots of detailed well written scenes but no hard core fetish or anything like that.

This was a fun little book. I cried so hard, and I loved the dynamic between the boys.
