Bound by the Basilisk: a cozy monster romance (Monstrous Deals)

Loved this book! The descriptions of the monsters and how they relate with humans, I feel like I could walk into a casino and see humans and monsters side by side. If you are wondering if you should read this book, don’t hesitate. For a human and monster meeting to love was perfect in my opinion. Perfect HEA for me.

I always adore these stories, but I was honestly surprised just how much weight was represented in this one. And yet you never think of the main character as being defined by it. She's beautiful and confident, mostly, and she knows what she wants. I appreciate how the author shows us that the monster world has bad people just like humans do, and how even flawed monsters can be good partners. This couple was a very beautiful pairing, although the problems were very predictable in a realistic way. You root for them anyways, and delight in their happiness. I think it's my favorite one yet.

This book starts out with a sassy escort talking out loud at a bar where she meets a basilisk. I like the description of how he merges into human society. Pretty cool twist at the end. I recommend.

This series is amazing. This book In particular is one of my favorites in the series, but i can't pick just one they are all a mist read. 3.5 on my spice scale. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶🌶🌶½

I love the way the FMC is confident in herself and her body. A lot of the time plus size MCs are self-loathing and i loved that Tamsin knows she's hot. The 3rd act breakup was not my fave, but overall it was a fun ans very steamy read.

I had a phobia about snakes that I thought would never be cured... Until now! I read this book with a lot of hesitation but ended up falling in love! Now all I can dream about is scales and beautiful forked tongues! I can't stop thinking about this bold beautiful basilisk and how he has cured me and left me wanting more!

The book was cute and spicy, the plot didn’t jump around and the characters were well written. Ami wright always has an amazing storyline and set of characters in her books and this one was no different. 8/10🌟(146pgs)

This was a fun, quick read. First book that I've read from this author and I like how the topic of s*xwork is handled. Because of the title I thought that there would be a bit more b*ndage scenes in the book. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Overall, however, this did not take away the pleasure I took out of the story while reading it.

I found it real good read to be honest had me on the edge of my seat. I loved it.
