ARC review.
Ugh. I have ARC read all of Hannah's books and they just keep getting better. The way she writes characters feels so freaking real and heartfelt. Miles, in particular, felt like a written version of myself. So many silly phrases and thoughts that I have had myself. Though I also reflect a lot of Caroline as well; I'm a people pleaser who struggles to voice what I need.
This one is definitely the spiciest in the Lennox Valley series (yes, sir), and it's also the most emotional. Miles' story is one of honesty, self-acceptance and learning to let go, while Caroline's is about learning to find her strength and go after what is right for her. These two bring out the best in each other and even though it was a tough slog to get their HEA, it was worth it.
And the spice. Oh my good gosh. Miles is definitely the naughtier brother. Everything about it was perfect though. Being Caroline's sensei, helping her tick off things on her f-it list and being the king of consent; we all need a Miles Sharpe in our lives (in the form of whatever gender(s) you're attracted to).
Hannah, keep writing these beautiful, complex, messy humans - and keep making them ridiculous. ❤️

ARC review.
I love a dystopia monster romance: even more when it's poly. This is a spin off series for Crea, and I hadn't read the original series it was based off. This didn't cause me any issues and I was able to follow and understand the world we were in. We have human x monster x monster x monster. We get monster anatomy that doesn't conform with the traditional M/F anatomy and one of our monsters can shapeshift to their partners desire.
My only gripe with this was that the spicy scenes felt so short and I was hoping for more. However, there was a lot of world building and this book follows a plot as opposed to pure character development, so it's understandable that some of the spice needs to go for the plot to proceed.
Looking forward to the next one in this series: more monsters please!!!
