This is a steamy sweet stand alone Monster Romance...though best if you read the first one (My Fated Orc Hero ; ) ) (But not absolutely necessary)

I practice for social interaction with flash cards. True story. But they sure didn't prepare me for flirting with a minotaur in a magical hidden town...

I'm just a historian with an obsession for lists and order. Suddenly, I'm in Fablewood, where myths are real and magic is everywhere. A charming minotaur tavern owner says we're fated mates. I should be freaking out, but his smile is... captivating. Now I'm decoding ancient symbols and playing monster board games. My color-coded planner has no category for 'romance a mythical beast'. And the wildest part? I'm starting to think horns are kind of sexy.

All I want is to unravel Fablewood's secrets and maybe hold his hand. But not everyone's happy about a human in town. Can a bookish human and a buff minotaur find love amid magical mayhem?

What Risingshadow readers think about this book

9/10

This was my first book from the Fablewood Monster Mates series as well as by Leela Ash and I am glad I came across it because I really enjoyed it. All the world building was really well written to really bring the reader into the story and I loved the characters. I liked both Kalen & Olivia and I look forward to backtracking to read Zoe's story in book 1 as well reading Mia's story in book 3 in the future.

I received a free advanced reader copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
