Snowed In With The Ice Dragon by Vala Stone
Snowed In With The Ice Dragon by Vala Stone part of the Monster & Mistletoe series 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 is a monster romance! Make sure you know what that means before you read this story. This is also a spicy story, again, make sure you know what that means.
Bianca is a female women who is in a one-sided or shall we even say toxic relationship. Though, I would also like to say I think the relationship she has with her mom is also toxic. Like, it seems Bianca is in this bad relationship because her mom wants grandchildren already.
Bianca goes on some family snow trip and gets ditched by her toxic boyfriend on a mountainside. It is snowing! There is a winter storm! She is on a mountain alone in the cold! Thankfully there are these beautiful ice sculptures that lead her to a cabin. Phew!
Ísarr is the MMC and obvious Ice Dragon who lives in this cabin and who is also very good with his hands. He not only made the ice sculptures, you’ll learn why later, but he also carves wood and builds furniture. The man is the quintessential burly mountain man. I love him! He’s also an Ice Dragon that also breaths fire. Like what?! swoon
Okay, obviously things get hot and heated between these two. However, there is also like a dark force or like shadow villain/monster that appears and Bianca and Ísarr must save the town and her now ex-boyfriend eye roll. There isn’t too much about that, but maybe in the bonus chapter?
Oh yeah, there’s a bonus chapter you can get from the author, which so far is spicy and they do it in Ísarr’s hoard, but I haven’t finished to know if the shadow monster comes back. I have a feeling it’s just going to be about them getting a Christmas tree.
Anyways, go read about an ice dragon and a human girl who boink against a tree outside in the snow.
P.S. This book, which we recommend, is free with a KindleUnlimited subscription, which we also recommend for all your monster romance needs 🙂

Scream For Me by G.M.Fairy
Scream For Me by G.M.Fairy 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 is a monster romance or rather monster retelling? Make sure you know what that means before reading this book.
We love this book! Scully is the MMC and he’s a monster who has no memory other than his primal monster memory. His job as a monster is to feed on people and their screams, so think he steals them away, keeps them captive, and eats them. Yikes!
Marie is the FMC and she is obviously a human woman. She has finally found her own place all on her own No roommates just her and her thoughts. What a dream come true. However, she was told the place she found, which was a steal, is like haunted or something. Welp! Turns out it’s Scully, obviously.
However, the way these two meet is quite something and I’d love nothing more than to spoil, but you REALLY should read this one to find out. Let’s say it’s a pleasure scream that kick starts Scully’s new memories and helps him become more monster-man-like.
There is dark place where all monsters live and of course Scully and Marie are here, but her screams are attracting all the other monsters because they know there is something different about her screams.
We find out some interesting things about Scully and potentially all the monsters in the dark place. We also learn there is a light place or a bright place, which Marie MUST get to as she thinks this is her way back.
Turns out Scully doesn’t want her to leave and he doesn’t tell her he CAN take her back where she came, so they head to the light place. There is of course lots of drama along the way. Lots of fighting and escaping bad monsters and of course lots and lots of spice.
The light place we find out is a safe haven kind of place. There isn’t too much lore spoken about this place, but I ASSUME it’s light because of all the “screaming” going on here with the humans and monsters wink At this place we are passively introduced to another monster, but again not too much information is given.
This is a fast paced read, so go get your monster smut on
P.S. This book, which we recommend, is free with a KindleUnlimited subscription, which we also recommend *wink*

Bitten by Nicole Parker
Bitten: A Kyleverse Sentient Object Romance Halloween Special by Nicole Parker This post contains affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission if you purchase through these links at no extra cost to you
Welcome to sentient object romances! One of Groan’s favorite genres.
It is not necessary that you know the Kyleverse before reading Bitten, though it is helpful to have read Faulty beforehand, but again not necessary.
We do suggest you read all of Nicole Parker’s works, especially if you are into sentient objects and a whole lot of smut *tongue out*
In bitten we have a Labubu type of character called Bulala. She was made and magic as all things are, duh! However, she gets missed placed and so begins her journey into violence and sex. LOLs we kid…maybe.
In this story two toys fight and given Bulala’s dispotions to violence and lust it turns into a rough play. If you know what we mean, between two toys that are sentient. Eventually they are joined by a human girl and then of course Kyle needs to show up for it to be complete.
Man, we love Kyle *swoon* anyways, they all figure out what’s going on and Bulala will no longer be angry and now has her own place/room and doesn’t seem so violent anymore.
Now, what’s going to happen with Bulala and Furbo we do not know, but hope there is a book two to their raging love. LOLs.
Go read Bitten and have a blast with sentient toys *wink*

Stardusted by Elle Deyesso
Stardusted by Elle Deyesso This post contains affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission if you purchase through these links at no extra cost to you
Sci-Fi Romances are the hot new thing! Why not be ahead of the curve and check out Stardusted.
Did you like and/or watch the OG Roswell TV show? If the answer is yes, and even no, then this book gives those vibes. It is a slow damn burn, but also like the tv show it moves a bit slow.
We’re following Rae on her adventure so everything is told not on in the first-person, but also in first-person monologues? She thinks a lot and we are privy to it.
There is lots of descriptive language. It almost felt like a script or like we were able to watch it all unfold in our minds. We appreciate this type of descriptive language because it builds the setting really nicely.
Anyways, Rae is a college student who works at a diner ( see, similar to Roswell) and she’s also super in-love with the bartender from her restaurant. Don’t worry, she does eventually see him shirtless *wink*
Since this is a sci-fi romance you’re probably wondering if there is spice. Unfortunately, there is not. There is kissing, but that’s as spicy as we get in this book. We’re hoping book two gives us a little butt or something.
Obviously, eventually Rae finds out the truth, that aliens exist, and we won’t tell you how she finds out. You’ll need to read the book to find out, but we will tell you that there are two alien species. Now you’re intrigued.
One of the aliens is a bad alien and of course the other is on the side of the humans trying to stop the bad aliens. Again, you’ll need to read the book to find out why, but it’s super interesting, and somehow Rae is involved in like a not a good way?
Book one ends on a happily for now ending with them on the road heading to Florida for some help. Let’s hope life on the road proves eventual for us *wink*
Go read it before book two comes out and be ahead of the curve and start reading Sci-Fi Romances

The Thylsnean Chronicles : Book 1: Earth by Aiden E. Messer
The Thylsnean Chronicles : Book 1: Earth by Aiden E. Messer 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 is a queer urban fantasy with two MMC’s.
There is also Trans Masc. visibility as well as anxiety, PTSD, CPTSD, and other mental health visibility. There is also bullying and parental rejection.
There is no spice, with the exception of kissing.
The story has so much potential. The world of Thylsnean, which I hope we get more of in book 2, is a magical place. The plant life, animal life, and other humanoid and non-humanoid beings are fantastic. I do hope we get more of them in book 2. They are described to the reader with some descriptive language.
The two main characters also have potential to have a strong relationship and for us, the reader, to feel connected to them. However, there is a lack of show and a lot of telling, therefore, as a reader we didn’t feel connected to thee characters. We also didn’t see any growth of who they are as individuals. We also didn’t understand their motives and reasoning.
There are villains, who are Ialtag, which is the winged beings of Thylsnean who may be part human, or at least share some human DNA. One of the MMC’s Caliel is an Ialtag and has portaled to earth to learn about Humans.
These villains want to humans to be extinct because they believe they, the Ialtag, are the superior species/beings. We are told this, not shown it through their actions or anything else. The only thing we are shown is when the villains capture Gabe, the human MMC, and torture him to get Caliel to agree with them and be their leader.
Spoiler, it doesn’t work and the two MMC’s escape.
There is more to the story, but you’ll need to read it to see the cliffhanger.
Perhaps we are snobs, but we need a fantasy story to give us a lot of description, and showing of character actions, setting, story, for us to feel connected to the world and characters.
If you are easy and don’t mind being told what characters are doing next then this is a great queer urban fantasy for you.

Awakening of the Starborne by Louve -Ch
Awakening of the Starborne by Louve -Ch This post contains affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission if you purchase through these links at no extra cost to you
*SPOILER FREE*
Where are the ACOTAR, Fourth Wing, and When the Moon Hatched girlies?
If you LOVE slow burn romantasy stories then you will absolutely love Awakening of the Starbone.
If you need a new shadow daddy (Sølas, the MMC) to thirst over this story has one and he is damn hot. He totally falls first, which we love. He’s also bonded to a dragon *drool*
Savaé, the FMC, is quite the bad ass. She can kill anyone and any beast. She’s had a rough life and doesn’t know her full potential or how to not be a lone wolf. Obviously, in the book she’s working through her shit and learning to love and rely on others.
Sully is a side character that you will come to love. He becomes a strong male figure for Savaé and trains her to be the bad ass warrior she is. You will fall in love with him.
There is a war college that our FMC and MMC both attend, however, in order to attend you must try out in small trials through out the lands. of course both pass. Duh!
There are also units that students in this war college are sorted into. Of course, Savaé is put in the position she hoped for because she’s badass so of course she would be. This satiates your longing for the Fourth Wing days.
In these units each person as a role and Savaé happens to be part of the unit that gets to be bonded to a flying beast. There are several types of beasts one can bond other than dragons. You’ll have to read the story to see what she bonds *wink*
There are bad forces in this world, which is why they have this war college. They’re training them to fight this darkness that is taking over the lands.
This not a HEA story, but rather a rip your heart out cliff hanger. In fact, your heart will be ripped out several times in this story. There is also a female villian and I am not sure what to think of her. I think I hate her.
Savaé and Sølas are fated mates, but there’s something interesting about it that drives the story. Hence, romantasy.
The story is also beautifully written. This is a high romantasy story and the descriptions of all the creatures, fae, continent, war, college and anything else is so rich in color and descriptive language you will feel like you are part of their unit and world.
You will be devistated and in love reading this story. You will be craving book 2. Go pre-order now so you can read it December 8th when it comes out
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 ❤

Attempted Murder & Other Ways To Seduce Your Mate by Emma Eden
Attempted Murder & Other Ways To Seduce Your Mate by Emma Eden Book 2 of The Cake Chaos Chronicles 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 is book 2 of The Cake Chaos Chronicles
This story focuses on Maggie the FMC and Noth the MMC. Maggie is a witch and Noth is an Elvin-Nightmare shifter.
The story follows their love, like literally is all about Maggie trying to kill Noth, but then as fate would have it…fated mates.
of course there’s fae politics, it wouldn’t be a romantasy without that. Noth has to defend his crown because some loser named like Steve or Brian or Brent * eye roll* tried to over throw Noth.
For Maggie it’s more a story about grief and forgiveness. Like this girl needs some serious therapy, but is managing to work her way through all that shit.
Though the themes are heavy the story is actually very funny, light, and very very spicy. Like, Noth is a pierced and a well packing dude. It’s like high level spice for a romantasy and happens a lot. Honestly, we could’ve done with more it just fits their characters so well.
Go dive into this series and don’t start with book 2 like we did. Out October 24th go pre-order it now

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.
Go get your copy and enjoy a romantic earthen monster romance
