Review: The Monster

 


Title: The Monster

Series: Boston Belles

Author: LJ Shen

Release Date: June 15




The most important thing I’d ever read was scribbled on the door of a portable restroom, engraved into plastic at a carnival on the outskirts of Boston.

Lust lingers, love stays.

Lust is impatient, love waits.

Lust burns, love warms.

Lust destroys, but love? Love kills.

Maybe it was always my destiny to fall in love with a monster.

When other kids stayed awake at night fearing the pointy-toothed beast hiding in their closet, I longed to see mine.

I wanted to feed it, domesticate it, understand it.

Sam and I were only allowed to love each other in the dark.

Once our story unfolded, and the truth came to light, I was the one to cut the cord.

My name is Aisling Fitzpatrick, and I have a confession to make.

Sam Brennan is not the only monster in this story.

 


Aisling Fitzpatrick wasn't your average Boston princess born with a silver spoon in her mouth, spoiled beyond belief. 

In stead of falling in love with a prince who might deserve her, she fell in love with the monster in the night. 

Stolen glances. 

Hidden kisses. 

But the thing about monsters is they can't be tamed. And maybe Sam Brennen wasn't the only monster of the story. 

I have been looking forward to this story for months. I love the dark and gritty. The blood and the monsters. I love to see what makes them tick. And seeing those who are incapable of love and feelings fall, and those who put them there. I spent my day devouring this book like I do any other LJ Shen novel. 4.5 ⭐ out of 5⭐.

Reread: Broken Bonds

  Title: Broken Bonds  Series: Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: June 2021 After the death of my mother and her Bonded, I was relieved to find my own Bonds. I was sure everything would be okay if I had them. It wasn’t. The fate of our people is in my hands and I know we’re better off if I’m alone. After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure. North, Nox, Gryphon, Atlas, and Gabe may never forgive me but one thing is for sure. I won’t ever forgive myself. *Broken Bonds is a full length reverse harem PNR novel with material that may be difficult for some readers. This book will end on a cliffhanger. It's recommended for 18+ due to language and sexual situations. Goodreads | Amazon   So I am rereading the Bonds that Tie series to read the newest release Broken Ties. You can find my  Original Review Here . This is a romantasy why choose romance full o...
