Plot twist 

We meet Nora in the year 1908 and she’s a professor at a university where strange murders and disappearance since have been occurring. Nora does not believe in monsters, but that theory doesn’t last long when she meets a monster in the flesh. The passion between these two was high. And in all this, there’s a mystery behind who the monster really is, where he’s from and why another professor from the same university wants to cure the world of all monsters, including the monster stocking Nora. 

This is my first monster Romance reading, and I went into it blind, and it was spicy. I got lost at some point as to what was going on and who is who and then had a clue based on the troph,the plot twist was unhinged. The main character are truly unhinged in this book, so much so that I had my jaw dropping and I was just like what.
