This book is the epitome of sweetness and very low stakes. I tend to prefer more angst and multi POV, but this short, fluffy read is a great palate cleanser without sacrificing spice.

The world Celeste and Theo occupy is like ours except it is centered around "monsters" with humans living on an isolated preserve. A human's only real chance of experiencing any kind of city life is to be matched to a monster spouse. This is the reality that informs Celeste in deciding to meet Theo but despite that, their romance has little tension and progresses quickly. The resulting spice with the size difference and necessary stretching is definitely the highlight to me, though.

Well written, easy to read, great book to cuddle up with. I do recommend to anyone who prefers light books or wants a change of pace between more intense reads
