Free of unnecessary drama. There is a little. It doesn't drag out though, which is nice. There isn't much substance to the story, but there are some parts of the characters that are relatable. They are also likeable and sweet.

the content warnings i added are for the super briefly mentioned history of her late-husband's abuse (it was off page) but the emotional ?¿ mental ? damage it has caused her does follow throughout the book till she learns to overcome it

I thought I’d try out a monster romance since I know so many people enjoy them but damn, it’s just not for me. Katee Robert knows how to write sexy but I found myself switching between laughing at how silly it was and being grossed out because I’m not into breeding kinks. Maybe I’ll try another in the future I’ll try a different monster romance just to be sure.

Loved this. In such a short time Robert has made a really rich world that I can't wait to read more into. I also find the contracts really interesting and love to see how they're going to affect future stories.
