Luxuria: A Monster Romance (Shades of Sin Book 1)

Product Information

Was having trouble finding this specific edition (didn't like the UK edition's cover, and there are quite a few different versions of this book existing) so very glad I found it from here! When a peace treaty is drafted by the human Hunters, whose objective is to kill “unruly” Shades, Ophelia is offered to the king as his bride to bridge the two groups in a show of peace.

The book had its share of strengths, such as the immersive world and elegant writing, but it also had its weaknesses. The beginning of the story was fun and engaging, the middle was a bit slow paced and the ending was rushed and unsubstantial. Ophelia is ostracized and ignored by her family and community at the age of 16 because of her wrong, unnatural attraction to the very monsters she was supposed to hunt and kill. Unbeknownst to her new husband, Allerick, Ophelia is more than willing to enter into their marriage as she can finally live out her lifelong fantasy of being with a monster.

When Ophelia does the unthinkable in the eyes of the hunters, she is cast out and lives a life away from all of it. She’s not the chick in the monster romances that take forever to see the attraction our girl is a PROUD monster fucker 😈 Despite going to the shadow realm she adjusts and wants to conform to their customs.

There was definitely part of me that thought we should talk about this, but was I really going to argue with him when he was willing to tongue fuck me into a better mood?

Shade daddy needed a bride and Ophelia , a huntress who was thrown away due to her fantasies of monster dong is the perfect fit for him. Remember in Monsters Inc, when they powered their city by frightening children, but soon learned laughter created more power than screams? I'm not sure if this qualifies as a BR since I hopped on part way through, but I'm thankful Isabella brought this gem to my attention. By the goddesses, I hoped this was more than just a monster-fucking fetish for Ophelia, because it was fast becoming everything to me. I can see why him holding himself back due to his own insecurities (all valid) spiked Ophelia's own to a hurtful level (which made my heart hurt).

Whether it be to inform the reader or to show how oblivious the characters were, some points were annoyingly heavy-handed. Whenever I saw pointed teeth, I imagined them pressing against the delicate skin of my neck, pinning me in place while my monstrous lover fucked me ruthlessly into the mattress. My only complaint is that I wanted to better understand the councils and have a bit more background on that but maybe that will be explored in other books that have Hunters in them.
