I surprisingly found myself unable to put this book down. I don’t generally read much fantasy but found this world easy to read and follow. All of the characters were quite likable and as a reader I found myself rooting for all 4 of the mates. This book is definitely smutty but there is emotional connections between all of the characters. There is also a sub-plot involving stalking by an ex. I recommend this for folks looking for a spicy fantasy read!

This was a top tier monster romance, but Lillian Lark never disappoints so I am not surprised at all. 

I loved the way they all played against each other. I did had the lies and secrets, but appreciated the warning before read that was coming.

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.
