This was a fun story and a nice addition to the Hillcrest Hollow Shifters series of standalone shifter romances. This story was about Gregory (Minotaur shifter) & Kess (Human) and I enjoyed seeing how the two of them got together as well as overcame the obstacles that came up. I am also looking forward to reading the next book in this series about Jackson (Griffin shifter) & Gwendolyn.

I enjoyed reading this Retelling of Beauty and the Beast and getting to know both Ceryn & Vael’Zhur in this story. The story was engaging and I thought the story behind the curse was interesting and different than many others I have read to set this retelling apart from other Beauty and the Beast variations.

This was my favorite book from this set of standalone instalove stories so far and I really enjoyed getting to know Dayton & Vanessa and seeing their story come together. Dayton's dog Gigi was also really cute and a fun little side character. I look forward to reading the next book in this series about Vanessa's friend Gennie and seeing who she ends up with.

I enjoyed this quick instalove novella and getting to know Barrett better as well as Michelle the barista at Willow Perk that he ends up with. They have a fun story and the epilogue was entertaining as well. I look forward to reading about Knox in the next book in this series.

This was a really entertaining and fast paced novella with excellent world building and characters. I enjoyed getting to know both King Kaerius and Samantha in this story and thought the plot was engaging and kept me wondering what would happen next. I look forward to reading many more books by this author in the future.

This was a quick and lighthearted instalove short story set in the small town of Seduction Summit and is about Duke & Jessalyn and how they get together. I enjoyed reading about them and the epilogue at the end did a nice job of showing how the two of them are doing a couple years later.

I enjoyed getting to know both Hayden & Eve in this sweet and steamy instalove short story. They had a fun story with a hiccup along the way due to Eve's friends but everything worked out in the end and the epilogue gives a hint of the future.

This was my first book by Lucy Piper and I really enjoyed getting to know the characters as well as the world this series takes place in. While I am sure that the book would be even better if I had read previous books in the series and had more background knowledge of some of the other characters in this story it provided enough information to work as a standalone and I enjoyed getting to know Malcolm and Quinn as well as Quinn's daughter Hillary. The epilogue at the end was really fun and I look forward to reading more books from this series and author.

I was really excited to read this book because Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite fairy tales and I loved reading this retelling of it. Malrik & Bella make a great couple in this story and I enjoyed seeing how their bond developed. The epilogue at the end did a really good job of showing how the two of them are doing a little into the future and I look forward to reading more books from this series as well as other books from this author in other series as well.
