Edin (Monstrous, #2) by Lily Mayne Review


I was in love with Edin from book one. Who wouldn’t? He was the monster that made the best of men doubt their bodies. The same one with amazing abs and a rocking body that attracted eyes. Yes, the monster with child-like personality. A hyper-active one. The perfect sweetheart. When I noticed he had a book for himself, I was thrilled. I dove into it without a second thought. 

Hunter, another military guy, was the complete opposite of Edin. A hot head to Edin's calm and happy-go-lucky attitude. A seasoned veteran stationed out in the wastelands. On Hunter's way to report to his base, he and his best friend slash partner were ambushed by Kolebs. Hunter’s friend, Charlie, was taken by the monsters during the encounter. Edin happened to be passing by and helped Hunter from maybe dying. The duo then had to work together to rescue the soldier’s friends from a horrid faith. 

Like the first book, in Edin the characters roamed across the wasteland on their quest. In this one, I had a clear view of the seme. And boy, was I pleased to know it was who I expected it to be. I swear Lilly wrote her books with me in mind. I could kiss her. Lol---a hidden joke----read the book to find out where it came from. Yeah, please do. Don’t leave me hanging. 

It’s sad to say I never enjoyed this book as much as I did the first one, but I loved the interaction between the big purple monster and the soldier. Edin was a sweetheart all through the novel, and I couldn’t help but love him even more. The author mentioned there would be a book for Charlie and I’m a bit excited about it as well. Oh, Cat, I hope his book is as awesome as he seemed. I couldn’t help but think about him although the story. A bit of a spoiler here but I was a bit pissed Hunter never allowed Edin to save the Aytorin. The poor thing needed rescuing. I couldn’t stand what Hunter said. You want Edin to help you but then turn around and tell the monster he can’t save everyone. Wow, like why do you need help then, sir? Why? Such an asshole thing to say since he was using him for his benefit. Gosh, that pissed me the shit off. Still, I hoped the creature---Aytorin--- got a book for himself. I would love to see it. 

All in all, Edin was a good read. I read it in one sitting. The HEA was beautiful as expected from a story Lily wrote. (I'm starting to like this author. She writes some good shit.) Can't wait to read book three. 

A picture found of the duo in Edin. The drawing of Edin reminded me of the monster. I loved it, so thought it would be good to share it with yall.

Sucked Review

  Book Source: Kindle Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Erotica Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶🌶🌶/5 Sucked by AR Taboo Review ‘She can’t keep it out of her mouth’.  I went into this one with an entire baggage of curiosity. I noticed a friend read and gave a review. Two sentences got me wanting to find out what it meant. There was nothing there for the book bio/synopsis which enhanced my urge to know what the hype was about. Knowing me, I got a little too curious, and rushed to read it. I gobbled up this thing without batting an eye. No one would think I was reading anything smut worthy much less as taboo as this. Like what the heck?  I’ve become so desensitized to these things that nothing affects me these days. No triggers. Not even this Novella. At this point, I could wave down the train to hell and buckle myself in. This was just…I’m lost for words.  Father reunited with daughter after years of not seeing each other. That was just ...

The Dark One (Vicious Lost Boys, #2) Review

Book Source: Kindle Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Spice Radar: 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶 Type of Novel: Series  Genre: Dark Romance Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ Book two of the Vicious Lost Boys series and I am here for it. The cliffhanger in book one got me intrigued. I jumped into book two to see what happened. Triggers includes Sex scenes, profanity, violence. I advise reading Nikki's content warning before jumping into this one.  The Dark One (Vicious Lost Boys, #2) After The Never King came The Dark One in the Vicious Lost Boys series. Nikki St. Crowe once again gave us what we needed in this Peter Pan retelling. I figured the title referred to Vane, the character. However, it was still centered around The Lost Boys of Neverland. A continuation of the last scene in the first book, The Never King.  I liked the way Nikki wrote the novel. It made it seem as if I was watching a bad ass show on tv. Sex included. The story got more in debt of the lives of the pe...

Coming Up for Air Review

  Book Source: Kindle  Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Standalone Novel Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶/5 Coming Up for Air by Amanda Meuwissen Review  I stumbled on this story and noticed the merman on the book cover. I didn't even think much into it---not even to read the synopsis---why I took such a chance was beyond me---and got the book. My childhood obsession with merfolks--not Ariel, I hated her---followed me into adulthood. Therefore, anything merfolk and I'm going to read it. This book fell into that category. And, I was glad I decided to read this book.   It all began when Leigh was dumped into the river by the mobster brothers, whom he stole from to appease the mafia he worked for. On the verge of drowning, he was kissed by an angel. Later he woke ashore without the shackles that the gangsters had tied around his ankle. Thinking nothing of it, Leigh went home, trying to come up with a plan to get himself out of the bind he ...
