If you’re looking for a fantasy book with political intrigue, forbidden magic, and a romance that burns slow but fierce, This Monster of Mine needs to be on your radar.

From page one, I was hooked. The writing pulls you in with sharp banter, layered magic systems, and characters who practically leap off the page. There’s betrayal, secrets, murder, and a deep, twisting plot that keeps you guessing. And the fact that this is her debut is WILD to me. Like this is giving “I’ve been writing magical world building chart topping romantasys for my entire life” energy and I cannot wait to see what she writes next.
I am so glad this was my FairyLoot book because I was going to end up purchasing a shelf trophy either way, and this one is ridiculously gorgeous.
And the bonus chapter – kick me in the face and promise to do it again tomorrow would you? So. Freaking. Good.
