Publisher's summary

Catalina only made her deal with the demon because she had nowhere else to go. The world has kicked her every chance it got, so she’s all too happy to leave the realm she knows behind. What’s the worst that could happen?

She doesn’t anticipate being auctioned away to a kraken.

Thane is cold and distant…but he’s not unkind. Isolated as they are, Catalina finds herself seeking his company again and again. And when she finally agrees to uphold her portion of the bargain?

That’s when things get really interesting.

But she only gave the demon seven years, and when the time is up, she’ll have no choice but to leave behind the kraken who’s stolen her heart and return to the world that doesn’t want her.

Decent. Too political.

It's a shame, really. The characters are good, development is good, steam is good.

Then the abundance of the author's personal political views come on like a brick to the head.

A DEMON introducing itself by stating its pronouns was bad enough, but the abortion segment was 100% "this is all the man's fault for not thinking, even if the female was 1000% willing to engage in unprotected sex."

While I do support her right to what she did, every other character was absolutely horrible the kraken king. Abusive, blaming him and only him and assuming that he was forcing her into it, even after her supported her choice.

It was the most cringe possible way to handle the situation and the author needs to leave her personal anger out of monster romance books.

Rediscovered love.

I enjoyed this spicy romance. Thane and Catrina both rediscovered they need love and are able to love and be loved.

I absolutely loved it

Adorable and spicy, I wasn’t sure anything could beat the first book but Roberts has outdone herself again!

Very middle of the road for me

I was very disappointed after hearing so much about Dragons Bride, and I was hoping for just a little more from it. But when this one came out on audio I thought I’d give it another shot.

For me and my taste, it’s just a bit too restrained. Spice could have been a bit more, the climax (or antagonist or SOMETHING) was a let down, just didn’t feel like the plot actually had anywhere to go besides a bratty woman and a heartbroken, grumpy kraken. That novelty wore off after about 5 chapters for me.

Again is it the worst listen out there? By no means, it was an easy listen and the narrators are good. But just fell short of what I wanted it to be.

Charming and naughty

Loved it. Loved the character growth and discussion of communication issues and abuse. The sex scenes were delicious.

Good Story, but I Wish it Had Been a Bit Longer

A very nice story, but it would have been nice to spend more time with the characters. I also thought it worth mentioning (since I've seen some rather mean reviews about "pronoun crap") that there was very nice use of gender neutral pronouns in this book. I love seeing representation in stories that just is, without othering the individuals.

Representation can't save flat plot.

I still think this story has a lot of potential, and there were bits of it I very much enjoyed. That enjoyment was somewhat diminished when Thane and Catalina seem to develop feelings for each other because *reasons*. It might be the length of the story, but I didn't believe their switch from animosity to affection. I loved the representation present in this book, and hope to see more books like it hit the shelves.

Ze Zem inclusive, thank you!

There are SO many things to like about this story:
1-Not the usual girl auctioned to a king/monster/alien set-up
2-female MC who does NOT whine, complain about her crappy childhood, or run from her new reality
3-polyamory, homosexuality, and asexuality are part of this world, and accepted
4- alternate pronouns!
5- male MC who is more interested in supporting his girl than 'doing his duty'
6- decent sex
7- great narration

I think there are many readers who will be thrown off by the sexual inclusivity of this book/world, but I like it. I hope the author continues writing stories in this Demon world and delves into those alternative relationships in future books
