Oh… my… sweet… goodness… The absolute CHARM of this book! It hit me like a bat and I was in an absolute chokehold. I made the mistake of starting it one evening right before bed and I genuinely had to peel myself away from it to go to bed. Needless to say, I absolutely devoured it the very next day.

When you start, you’re not going to want to stop.

Amy is a human accountant, wrangled into an evening of monster hunting at the local lake.

Adrian is a monster accountant (an aquatic nix, in particular) who has requested a match through the Love Bathhouse to help him get through his current heat cycle.

Let’s just say, Adrian’s date never gets there, and Amy is all too willing to step into her place.

I’m legit still not over how much I loved this book. Deceived by the Gargoyles has held the spot for my fave monster romance this year and Found by the Lake Monster is honestly neck and neck. Amy and Adrian have such incredibly sweet chemistry together, and I could read a whole series based on them alone. (If you’ve read Sweat & Soap, they kind of have the same kind of addictively sweet chemistry that is so fun to read!)

Do not even get me started on the sexy times because my gosh are they hot. We are pro-lube in this house and there is literally no such thing as too much lube. Apparently Lillian Lark agrees with me because hot damn were the smutty scenes good! 

With this adorable, sweet, hot, oh so sexy, oh so CHARMING release, Lillian Lark has solidified her place as my favourite monster romance author.

Please excuse me while I go flail and clutch this book with my greedy little hands. Gosh, I love this series so much!!
