\u201cYou are not who you are because of where you come from; you are who you are because of where you choose to go.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Keyanna \u201cKey\u201d MacKay is used to secrets. Raised by a single father who never divulged his past, it\u2019s only after his death that she finds herself thrust into the world he\u2019d always refused to speak of. With just a childhood bedtime story about a monster that saved her father\u2019s life and the name of her estranged grandmother to go off of, Key has no idea what she\u2019ll find in Scotland. But repeating her father\u2019s mistakes and being rescued by a gorgeous, angry Scotsman, who thinks she\u2019s an idiot, is definitely the last thing she expects.
Lachlan Greer has his own secrets to keep, especially from the bonnie lass he pulls to safety from the slippery shore, a lass with captivating eyes and the last name he\u2019s been taught not to trust. He\u2019s looking for answers as well, and Key\u2019s presence on the grounds they both now occupy presents a real problem. It\u2019s even more troublesome when he gets a front row seat to the lukewarm welcome Key receives from her family; the strange powers she begins to develop; and the fierce determination she brings to every obstacle in her path. Things he shouldn\u2019t care about, and someone he\u00a0definitely<\/em>\u00a0doesn\u2019t find wildly attractive.
When their secrets collide, it becomes clear that Lachlan could hold the answers Keyanna is after, and that she might also be the key to uncovering his. Up against time, mystery, and a centuries old curse, they\u2019ll quickly discover that magic might not only be in fairy tales, and that love can be a real loch-mess.<\/p>\n

Though nothing can beat The Nanny<\/em>, this was an enjoyable read. This book was cute and entertaining! I loved how the author took her time to build the world, develop the characters, and create a perfect introduction to monster romance. I also loved how both characters, from their own perspectives, are mourning their parents (especially their dads). It adds so much depth, allowing us to understand the root of so many of their previous feelings and actions. Another thing I absolutely loved about this book was the hint of\u00a0mystery elements\u00a0stitched into their love story. Both characters are on a mission throughout the book, and when all their secrets come to light, it just elevates everything to another level.<\/p>\n

Four stars for the newest novel by Ferguson. The hate-to-love trope is one of my favorites, and they played it out so well together, their chemistry was unmatched. The plot was very engaging and I loved the lore and history behind the story and magic. I think this would be a perfect beginner monster romance for anyone wanting something a little light and fun with the added bonus of some monster smut!<\/p>\n
