I love both of these series. Have you read the Kate Daniels "Wilmington Years" books too? They are so great.


Though do yourself a favour and start with book 1 - What's Up, Buttercup?



The hero is a snake guy (shehru) with bulletproof scales, two sets of genitals, and a very long snake tail. He also has fangs and can kill with venom. Everyone is afraid of him, even his boss. He works as a bodyguard.
The heroine is a thief (she has a very good reason for becoming a thief) and after she steals from a bad man she is trying to get revenge on, she needs a bodyguard to keep her alive while she figures out her next steps.
Since the hero is a snake, he has a hard time when she fidgets because he is naturally attracted to movement, it screams "prey" to his instincts. Heroine loves to fidget.
They are stuck together 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, while he guards her. They fall in love.
The steamy moments are very steamy. He likes to talk dirty to her and praise her. He tells her she's beautiful and she's his good girl and his pet. He likes to wrap her up in the coils of his snake tail and restrain her. Everything is done with her consent.
I will definitely re-read this book.
Examples of the hero's dirty talking:
"You're taking me so well, pet. So good."
"Shh, sweetheart. It's all right. I have you. It's all right. I'm here. I'll fill you right up. Is this what you want? You like feeling full?"
"So gorgeous. This is where you belong, pet. With my c*** inside you. This is what you're made for. To come all over me when I f*** you. Now be a good girl and take a bit more. Just a little. You can do it."

Now I'm diving in to

by Devon Gambrell.

They have to find their fated mate.


It is omegaverse with a twist. He is an alpha. He is looking for an omega to have his babies.
Except many omegas die in childbirth. It's almost a historical romance setting with castles and ballgowns.
I liked how the heroine grew emotionally and watching them fall in love.


It's a dark urban fantasy with Angels/Demons/Witches/Vampire adjacent creatures that draws heavily from Christian and Greek mythology. It's SO well researched and a fantastic series. I can't recommend it enough.
If anyone's interested, the reading order is:
Grave Secrets
Firefly (Novella 1.5)
Grave Prophecies
Light (Novella 2.5)
Grave Revelations (Released November 2024).
It's also on Kindle Unlimited if you're looking for your next read there! I just love this series so much and think it's SO underrated!!




I love the plot, the character development (Especially the character development), the humor. There's some romance, that builds with every book.
I'm genuinly in love with the series.

His fluids are black. He has special piercings "down there".
He says very funny things. He likes to talk dirty and call her his good girl.
The heroine's mother is very controlling so those scenes irritated me.
The hero is very obsessed with her. Because of his "issues" his employer makes him attend therapy regularly. His phone calls with his therapist made me laugh out loud.

He is a shadow manipulator and magic sigil spellcaster. He has horns and can wrap shadows around himself and others and disappear. She is a witch. He is really in love with her.
She tries to hire him to spy on a bad guy who killed her only family member. The only payment he will accept is her permanent "witch bond" which links their life force.


Have you tried author Ilona Andrews? Kate Daniels series, Innkeeper series, Hidden Legacy series? They are all wonderful.

This girl goes to a book signing and gets to meet the author and the male models that are on the covers of her books. The Author invites the girl to an after party where she introduces the girl to a man named Orion who is her mate though the girl doesn’t know that yet. The Author is actually a Psychic that writes her stories about a pack of werewolves; Orion is a werewolf as well.
I also remember that there is a vampire that the girl befriends.
I think there is another pack and Orion has to fight one of the other pack members. The girl, not knowing the rules jumps in to try and save Orion, but one of the wolves that came with her and Orion jumped in instead to save her from fighting and gets killed.
I really loved this series , but can’t seem to find it.

He is a mothman with large wings, a fur ruff, antennae, claws, and a long tongue. She is a graduate student working on her PhD degree. She is working on a study about monster sexuality.
The mothman has watched his friends fall in love and he wants to find love.
He helps her find monsters to interview for her study.

She has a lot of difficulty reaching "the peak". He enjoys the challenge. They role play. Student and teacher, Victorian br@thel customer and her first client.
He also woos her. He watches romantic movies to try to get tips so she will fall in love with him.
There is one threes@me scene. Her, mothman, and a kraken. All 3 touch each other and have fun. He wanted to show her a good time and prove he wouldn't make her give up her independence if they were in a relationship.
There were some things I did not like. The heroine is a little insecure. And before she met the hero, she cheated on her fiance with her professor. I do not like cheaters. And now her former fiance is marrying her little sister. But overall I really liked the book.
It reads fine as a stand alone. The couples from book 1 and 2 are his friends and make appearances.

I don't know what book this is but it sounds great!! Please share the title if you ever find it!


There is a very slow burn romance. Very slow. I would also say it is a cliffhanger ending.
