Another adorable installation in this series. I love that, despite all the men being cinnamon roles for their chosen one, they have very different personalities. And I appreciate that all the women chosen are strong in different ways.

My main gripe with this one was I found some of the plot regarding the construction and negotiations a bit dull.

Another great one from Abel. I love a ‘villain’ redemption story and I’m so hoping Wonjin gets his own little story.

Hell yeah, back at it again!! This one was right up my alley again. Super interesting stuff going on, loved that we got to revisit characters from a previous book, and I really enjoyed the ending. 

I was intrigued by Zatruk in I Married A Birdman so was really pleased at the opportunity to see more into the Yurus culture and read from Zatruk's point of view. I hadn't put two and two together somehow so it was literally not until Kayog states his name in this book that I was pleasantly surprised to realize he was the eponymous Minotaur. He was a great character with some interesting depth and I enjoyed reading about him a lot. I was also immediately smitten with Wonjin and there was much squealing and happiness over his side story.

Rihanna was another fantastic female character in this series. I was pleased to see someone again with more personality and depth and really liked how well Rihanna served as a good match for Zatruk while being a great foil to the pre-established Luanna. I also liked that Rihanna was tiny but still independent and capable.

Overall, very pleased!!

I love this series. Another sweet monster romance with low angst. I liked that this one tied in characters from the I Married a Birdman book, and it developed the world even more. 

I liked how things wrapped up and the HEA was adorable. 

I liked that the heroine was a POC and spunky. I just wish there had been a little more to her. We don't learn about her background much other than that she was a smuggler beforehand that got caught. 

I dropped half a star because I didn't love this one as much as the Lizardman or Naga one. It's still really good. However, there were some things in the first part of the book that I thought would lead to certain things happening later, but ended up not. Zatruk mentions spanking and some dom type things, but no BDSM type things ever happen, which I was actually glad about. That's not a kink I have, so if you do, don't expect that.
