The Rycke (Monstrous, #3) by Lily Mayne Review


The third installment in the Monstrous series, The Rycke, was a refreshing break from the military men and monster combo. Ghost, a raider, from the same camp that Cat---yes, that mysterious man in the fight club (I don’t remember what that place is called) from book two---was sent out to scavenge for anything that might indicate where said Cat was. In the midst of the ruined military base’s rubble---the same Nebraska base from Wyn's days (Book one) ---Ghost’s best pal, Rig, stumbled on a wounded monster. I was not-so-surprised it was a Rycke. Yeah, it was the book's name, so I figured it was that monster.  

Anyways, the men helped the monster and brought him back to their camp to recover. The gentle, terrified monster with PTSD. Like Jesus, I never thought monsters could have PTSD, but anything was possible in this lovely series. He and Danny should start a support group. Moth, the Aytorin, and his two tree-eating friends would undoubtedly join. Not to mention, Cat. God knows why he didn't want to escape with the others and I'm beyond curious at this point. I'm sizzling to find out, but I'm having a little self-control ---for once--- and reading the books in order. Yeah, the support group crap was a sick joke, but I couldn’t stop myself from making it. God, I would join too. I feel like I need help.  

Put all fun and jokes aside, Aury was the best. A dangerous beast trapped in the mind of a sweetheart. Gosh, why can’t I have a monster who would want to read to me at night? I would love that. Why not me? The real world is so unfair. I loved the reverse situation with Ghost and Aury. A bit different from a monster tending to a human but in Ghost and Aury’s case, it was the human taking care of the monster and then vice versa. Loved the protectiveness the two had to go on. Loved it even more when it wasn’t one-sided.  

I totally dug Rig for sneaking that book out of the room. I would do the same, so he immediately went on my best book friend list. I can’t wait to get into his story. Therefore, I’m skipping over Wyn’s book and diving into ‘The Gloam’. I kind of wanted a dual point of view to get a whiff of what was going on in the monster’s heads throughout the story. Maybe it would have given me PTSD, but I would have loved it. Still, craving it. Maybe Lily will surprise me.

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 First and the Last Review

  Book Source: Kindle Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Spice Radar: 🌶🌶🌶/5 Type: Series Genre: MM Romance  Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 I was in desperate need of a quick read. This book came to my rescue along with Str8te Guys by Evangeline Anderson. Loved that erotica by the way. Also a MM Romance. I was more than happy I stumbled on these two books. Read them in one night. Yeah, one night. Who needs sleep when we have a book, right? The First and the Last Review  The first and the Last was a MM Romance by Jessi H Reign. A friends-to-lovers omegaverse. The paranormal romance began with the growth of Sully and Jules from their high school years until they became shifters. The two saw each other as best friends until a Storm flew through their pack. Okay, not an actual storm but a woman called Storm. A mind-blowing threesome and the males realized they liked the experience of each naked a little too much.  I hoped that wasn't a spoiler. But, I th...

Edin (Monstrous, #2) Review

  Book Source: Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Standalone Series Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶/5 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...
