Monsters Under My Bed by M.J. Marstens
5.0
When I saw this book I was so here for it! I'm digging the monster vibes that are going around the RH community right now. This book was so much more than just monster smut though - there was a solid plot throughout, but some hot AF sexy time too.
Don't expect to get to the goods too early in this story, there's a lot of groundwork and setup that MJ has to lay to make sure the reader is thoroughly entrenched in the world. The dynamics of the monster world are so interesting and I can't wait to learn more as the series goes on.
The FMC!
Let me start off by saying Alexis isn't the normal sort of FMC I go for. She's def going to be a grower as the series goes on. She has a lot of discovery to do, but by the end of book one, we start to see her shaping up. Everyone's trauma journey is different and MJ does a fantastic job at writing that (It can be frustrating for some, but what healing process isn't?)
The Guys!
Xhoshad, Nerazi, Seriq & Mark - Three monsters and a human. There's so much backstory between all of the guys woven throughout the story! They've been a part of her life for so many years but with many conflicting feelings and histories. This ain't no easy love story, but that's what's making it so good to read.
The Smut!
Read the forward and you'll know that you may get bangxiety in this one, but fear not, you'll get the goods by the end of it! Oh boy, do you get the monster smut.
