    We love Bernadette!

    You will too, but Frank (the MMC) will grow on you. Don’t worry!

    Real quick because we’re book besties. The story is about a hacker, Bernadette, who happens to maybe get something stolen from Franks company.

    Okay, now the fun stuff. Bernadette is amazing! She’s like a feisty short red-head, who is a genius at the keys and we mean keyboard not piano, but maybe she does know how to play the piano. We wouldn’t doubt her because she’s also hella cultured.

    Obviously she’s the hacker. The best part is she’s like the best in the human world and the supernatural world. Like, how is that even possible, but we love it.

    Oh she’s also a Fat FMC. Representation matters!

    Both FMC and MMC are pierced so if that’s your thing we gots it in this story. If not, it will now be. You’re welcome!

    This is a spicy story and also kind of a slow burn. It’s a story so like, there are breaks between their touching each other. However, they do get physical often so you’re warned.

    Go read it now and fall in love with monster romances 🙂

    All I wanted was to read books but i became a space pirate instead by Petra Palerno Book 4 of the Bubble Babies.

    A wonderful ending to the cutest series, The Bubble Babes.

    This is book 4 and does a great job of ending not just this book, but the entire series in a HEA.

    In this particular story our FMC, Kamari is on a mission to write her own story. Everything was obviously taken form her when she was abducted by the aliens.

    Now, She’s doing whatever she can to do things on her terms. She stows away on a pirate spaceship. She meets the caption, you’ll need to read the story to see how they meet.

    The captan obviously dislikes her and wishes she wasn’t on his ship, but they do have to play pretend mates though to complete their mission.

    Turns out both their missions align so they can save the humans together. Obviously along the way they fall for each other. It is a steamy book, but like maybe a medium heat.

    There is a great side-character that I hope we get a story about. There is also some funny lines that make you chuckle out loud.

    Oh, and there is lots of adventure. Like these two get into a lot of trouble and have like two or three battles they have to blast their way out of.

    It’s quick, cute, and adventurous a great ending to a great story.

    The first Duck-Shifter romance we have read and it’s super adorable and full of heart.

    It’s also hella steamy so get ready fro some duck penis. We also only believe duck penises to be how it is described in the book and will not accept scientific fact.

    In this world the shifters and non-shifters (humans) co-exsit, but there seems to still be some prejudice against shifters. Maybe it’s only certain types of shifters these prejudices occur.

    Well, our baby boo duck-shifter has gotten a lot of hate through out his life and he is not feeling too confident with sharing his shifting identity

    Thank fully the FMC is a boss babe who is done dealing with mens bullshit. Actually, this has nothing to do with the MMC, but We wanted you to know she means business.

    How they relate is she, the FMC, helps the MMC be confident and not insecure with who he is as a shifter. They also get freaky, did I already tell you that? This obviously helps the MMC out…a lot

    Go read the cute shifter story ❤

    Note from us: We’ll suggest places to read or listen, but whenever you can, go straight to the authors as it’s the kindest way to show love and support them ❤

    If you want great tentacle representation then this story is for you.

    The MMC has two penises, which I hope is part of being a Kraken. We will now read more Kraken stories to find out.

    The story first starts out with the FMC being in college and finding her mate after a bad break-up. Lucky her!

    Then the story jumps forward in time when everyone is older and working their respective jobs.

    The Kraken in the story is much older so this is an age difference story. This is also a second chance story. There is also miscarriage representation.

    The FMC does not like the MMC (Kraken), but eventually allows him back in her life.

    There is obviously some drama that happens, but you’ll have to read it to find out what the drama is and why the FMC’s mate left her.

    Groan’s now NEEDS a broomstick!

    If you wanted to know why witches carry brooms, well…this book will explain everything.

    The story follows a college age witch who it seems no one has really trained. She’s assumed to be “bad” at magic. She get’s accepted to a witch-like college where she accidentally enchants a broom

    So obviously this only works with enchanted brooms. Must find a witch now to enchant my broom.

    This is F/F story as the broom identifies as female. Smut scenes are steamy and the broom really knows what it’s doing *smirk*

    Bewitched on Werewolf Way by E.G. Verot Book 1

    This post contains affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission if you purchase through these links at no extra cost to you

    This was a book suitable for both Groan and Barnibus which means you can read it too. No excuses!

    Yeah yeah, Groan is a smut hoe and will always tell you MORE SMUT that’s just who he is. This story has beginner level spice. Still open door, just like Hallmark movie type if they have spice in those movies. We don’t know.

    For our (ro)fantasy and scifi loving lyndworm it was the cutest most coziest monster romance he’d ever read.

    We don’t really know what Hallmark is, but it gives Hallmark movie vibes.

    There’s a witch and her other monster friends who give like 90’s girl coven vibes who have this dream of building a monster town. How cute, right?!

    Well, somehow (you’ll have to read the book) a werewolf comes along who falls fast and hard for this witch girl. Might be fated mates, I guess you have to read.

    Anyways, it’s about them falling for each other and building this town while also fighting bad guys. No big deal.

    See cute and cozy!

    The town of Blackthorn Valley is also very cute and we’d like to live there some day too

  • Lightlust by Laewyn Finch

    Lightlust by Laewyn Finch

    Lightlust by Laewyn Finch Book 2 of The Shorline Chronicles

    This is book two in The Shorline Chronicles.

    Each book thus far has been different meaning themes and main characters are different in each story. However, they all are part of the same universe/town so these two characters you have seen/heard about in book 1 Sundust.

    Book two follows Pearson the MMC and Skyl the FMC (who is also a vampire). The book shows us their relationship unfold. In this unfolding we get to work through Skyla’s trauma of being a vampire who needs to feed.

    You’ll absolutely fall in love with Pearson *swoon* because we have. It is a medium level spice, for us at least. Their life is drama and you’ll feel like you’re part of their world, or at least part of the Shorline community.

    It is kind of slow, but not in a bad way more in an indie romcom movie sort of way because we’re watching two people fall in love with each other and admit it.

    The two main characters from book 1 make an appearance in Lightlust which adds to not only continuity, but also that you’re part of Shorline.

    If you want a vampire romance story that feels like real life or at least like it could happen to anyone and you like golden retriever type dudes this book is for you.

    If you like science and find yourself as one of those “STEM girlies” then you will love this story.

    Our FMC is quite the scientist and she shows us in her meticulous field notes. I suggest reading the field notes as they are humorous and get increasingly more on unhinged.

    There is a boyfriend (Brent) and you will hate him, a lot, and then laugh at him. He is the comic relief of the story. Every story needs one of those.

    Don’t worry it’s no cheating because she’s going to break up with him anyways…you decide.

    The FMC obviously follows the big foot for science purposes, duh! She didn’t know it would be a fated mates type of thing.

    There is also a language barrier if you’re into that trope. We are and love it ❤

    Also, this book does a good job of not leaving out how sore, raw, in need of some cooling water a vagina may be after a night with big foot. Still no word about if UTI’s are a thing maybe that’s in a different book.

    The book does have a HEA kind of ending, but also eludes to a book two with a maybe different cryptid.

  • Mushy Stuff by Lyra Lorne

    Mushy Stuff by Lyra Lorne

    This post contains affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission if you purchase through these links at no extra cost to you

    You will fall in love with the world of Lydia and Wold. Especially Wold, the guardian * heart eyes*

    When you think of mushrooms and glowing things we hope, like us, you think of Wold 🙂

    Wolds job is to protect the land from humans, but obviously fails when Lydia stumbles onto his land. He does show her what he does to humans *wink* JK only to her

    It has the makings of a monster romantasy, but doesn’t go deeper into the magic systems or the politics of the world and fae. Oh yeah, there are fae in this story and they’re the bad guys. We kind of like that.

    The spice is immediate so if you don’t like that then why are you reading monster romances? Go get therapy Cheryl and leave our monsters alone! He has a special eggplant, another reason why Cheryl needs to leave.

    The descriptive language of the world will leave you feeling as if you are part of their world or that you want to be part of it. We assume we live there now.

    There is even a bonus story, Knot Without My Mate

    Knot without my Mate a bonus story in Mushy Stuff by Lyra Lorne

    Which follows the story of two side characters from Mushy Stuff who we meet in the fae castle. Their story is a bit darker and centers around the theme of survivor and the trauma associated with being a sexual assault survivor.

    The bonus story does add to the main story line of Mushy Stuff as we see their lives intermingle in Knot without my Mate.

    It’s Kinktober for a reason 🙂

    This one focuses on exhibitionism a little voyeurism and of course there’s some worshipping and praise…all the things we love for October *smirk*

    This is a human-alien romance so we’ve got a double peen situation, ribbed for her pleasure of course.

    The story is fantastic and feels like a novella that is part of a larger universe. Let’s hope there is more to come from this world 🙂
