Monsters Under My Bed

Well, this was an experience I will not forget anytime soon. Nor will I be forgetting the character art included in the beginning--which will remain fully burned into my retinas forever.

This follows Alexis, a young photographer who left home after an incident involving some demons and the disappearance of her best friend. Alexis has always had nightmares, and those nightmares often included the appearance of three spooky demons that come out from beneath her bed, and are only visible in the dark. When Alexis has to return home to care for her dying father, she must once again face her nightmare demons residing in her childhood home. And this time, things take a sexy turn.

These demons have glowing eyes, shadow powers, and very long tongues. They use said tongues in very creative ways, that's all imma say. This is book one of a trilogy and doesn't quite end on a cliffhanger, more of a tee-up for book 2. I enjoyed this wild, spicy ride a lot, and would definitely recommend it.

May 2022 Update: 3.5 * I skimmed this before reading the second book because I couldn't remember certain details. It was still decent, but maybe not as good as I remember. Having now read the second book I am having a lot of issues with the series.

This is a fantastic book to get you out of a reading slump. It's fast and intriguing. The darkness of this story is mild in comparison to what I thought it would be, and I liked how it has just a tad bit of darkness while still being romantic. In this story you have three creepy yet sexy monstrous men, bogeymen, who want to share the main character Alexis. They were her friends for years before an incident drove her away from them. The story unfolds when she comes home to take care of her sick father. I absolutely loved the writing, the characters, the plot, and the twists. It was incredibly steamy and had pictures too! I can't wait until the next one comes out in January. 100% recommend this book.
