Aberrant Monsters
by Debbie Cassidy
Enormous thank you to the author for gifting me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! All thoughts and opinions expressed below are my own.
So, I devoured Aberrant Monsters by Debbie Cassidy in literally one gulp–I was entirely glued to my kindle and sincerely couldn’t stop until I reached the end, which left me fully hanging from the edge of my seat…UGH. Book 2 releases 4/14 sooo if you need me I’ll be pining away for this sequel!!
By far my favorite element of this novel is the super unique connection/bond between the badass heroine, August Vera, and the sexy monster using her body as a host during the daytime, Telarion. He’s devastatingly swoon-worthy, but also toe-curlingly violent, which definitely makes for one of my favorite combinations in a dark, brooding love interest. August and Telarion’s push-and-pull relationship of forbidden love and angst nonstop kept me turning those pages with reckless abandon!
All the side characters were also very intriguing; I particularly loved the club scenes with Lothos and he’s definitely one I’d love to learn more about in the next installments! I appreciate how the entire premise of life force and sexual energy pervading the magic systems of this book felt super unique and original to me! The writing is both rich in worldbuilding as well as fast-paced with a compelling style that left me feeling totally fascinated and spellbound.
I can highly recommend this one to fans of slowburn paranormal romance 18+, especially those with a taste for the darker side of fantasy romance!
