I Married A Lizardman by Regine Abel
4.0
lighthearted medium-paced

This was a sweet and steamy first start to a new series by Regine Abel. While I did enjoy the budding romance and quiet drama surrounding Olix and Susan's marriage, there just wasn't enough danger and excitement for me to absolutely get lost in. I wish there had been more opportunities for us to see how ruthless a protective warrior Olix could be, but overall I enjoyed the slow burn between Olix and Susan as they learned to navigate their different expectations and cultures.

Tropes: marriage-of-convenience, opposites attract, cinnamon roll hero, fish-out-of-water heroine, cultural differences, monster romance, sex lessons, arranged marriage, found family, steamy🔥
