Souls and Sorrows (Monsters & Muses Book 5)

Product Information

It was so heartwarming seeing Kal in father mode. I actually like the brother-in-law role that Kal has for himself. He cares not just for Elena, but for her loved ones. ariana. if i ever get to meet you either in the afterlife, or my imagination i’m giving you an enormous hug, and hopefully you will let me. you are such a strong woman and you deserve every single sliver of happiness and obsession that cash—or your readers give you. The seeds of things you care for don’t stop sprouting just because you can’t water them daily; they’re far more resilient than that.”

Despite the gorgeous cover, this one just didn’t have a similar feel as the others in the Monsters & Muses series. I love your temper, and your attitude, and that soft, passionate heart you keep hidden away from plain sight. Separately, together, it doesn’t matter—anything at all that you give me, I want, forever.” The characters are flawed, yet beyond perfect. The cameos and intersection of other stories is what I live for. I won’t go into details, but if you like that sort of thing, you’ll love this book. Sav R. Miller proved it again!! I already knew this story was gonna be superb. Cash and Ariana stole my heart from the very instant of the book. The chemistry and electric spark between them OMG SO HOT!! SO INTENSE!! Honestly, If you’d told me prior to reading this book that any of the male leads would rival Jonas for my affections, I would have laughed in your face, then enters Cash. He’s basically imprinted on me because I finished this book a couple nights ago and he’s still on my mind.His love. Discomfort lodges in my throat as I think about those three words I swear he almost said the other day. The real horror wasn’t that he felt them, though—it’s how desperate I apparently am to hear him say it. As if my entire life has been leading up to this one moment, for someone to see me at my worst and still want me anyway.” Her stranger turns out to be Cash Primrose. A quarter billion dollars & a marriage certificate later, Ariana finds herself expecting the other shoe to drop.

Ariana and Cash were both great characters. Individually. They had so much potential, but that wasn’t reached when they were together. There was very little romance in this book (as well as smut surprisingly). Even with 5% remaining I couldn’t tell if they really liked each other or enjoyed the other’s company. That could partly be because they never once talked about anything besides business. So when they kinda sorta confessed their “I love you’s” (wait did they?? 🤔) I did a double take. We didn’t get to really dive deep into their personalities enough which is such a shame. Also, idk if it was just me, but a lot of their characteristics felt contradictory.

Her new husband treats her as an equal, as a partner (which is more than most women in the Mafia world get). But she can't help but wait for the monster that her mother assured her, will ALWAYS come. Ariana is such a badass, I love her vengeful persona and her soft heart which she shows very rarely. Cash being a lawyer is dangerous and he will go to anything just to save Ariana. His instant want for her was just so satisfying throughout the book.
