Only reason I'm knocking half a star off is because it took me a long time to get into this book. I don't know how long I would've taken to get through it if I didn't switch between reading on my Kindle and listening to the audiobook.
But really, don't listen to the reviews that say "no plot, just monster dick" because there is a really good plot going on. Mystery, betrayal, mystical intrigue... and the characters are all fun and interesting. To be fair, I'm fairly indifferent towards Esther, but I love all the men, save for Amon. He's on thin ice. Overall, a good time with good smut.

This book is quite long, or at least feels that way. The characters also don't add much, and it both has too little and too much plot.

As for the villain, it made me feel uncomfortable, the stakes being getting raped was too much.

Long story short, if you’re looking for some mindless monster action - this is the book for you. But don’t expect anything beyond that.

After reading the Sweetverse books, I was really looking forward to this one, but it was a bit of a letdown, to be honest. Lola & Baby’s RH stories had such thorough, well-rounded plots & characterization. This one is pretty much straight up erotica each & every chapter and, oddly enough, the best descriptor I can use is boring. I don’t understand how a monster RH could be boring, but this one showed me it’s possible!

Our MFC Esther’s only character trait is that she’s a gal who likes, no craves, sex. At one time, she even declares that “she’s just a girl who loves fucking.” More power to her, but that shouldn’t be the be-all & end-all of characterization, and I didn’t find anything else about Esther beyond this. Some of the fellas were sort of interesting (Booker, mainly), but overall, there just wasn’t much for me to engage with.
