Another great read by this author about a monstrous FMC finding love with a human guy. It's rare to find monster romance books where the main female character is the monster, and even rarer where that monster is so loveable you miss spending time with her once the book is done. In other words, Oona stole my heart xD The MMC was a good fit for her, and their getting to know each other was hilarious to watch. The whole book was written with humor that had me giggling over the pages. The schmexy scenes were uniquely hot (Oona is 8 ft tall, so she and Nick have to be creative :P ) All of this happening against the backdrop of a lagoon as beautiful as it was dangerous added an extra pinch of magic to the story. Looking forward to the next magical read within the Femme Fatale Monster series!
