Jillian West does it again. 

The Monstrous World Series has quickly become one of my all time favorite series! I love the world and character building. Books seamlessly flow from one to the next, however can be read alone. That to me is incredibly difficult to achieve to the degree Jillian constantly does. 

The characters, Charity and her men, have been introduced in prior books, but the start allows for readers to pick it up and learn a bit about Charity on her own. 

Athos is one of my most loved characters. He is hilarious and endearing. He lightens the mood in tense situations without being too much. He is so earnest in courting Charity, I just loved it. 

I loved seeing the cameos of characters from the previous books, and can’t wait to explore more of the second generation.
