Listen. We all know why we're here, to read a fantastically written smutty story about a lake monster. (And I am not ashamed!)
Amy is an accountant, an actual accountant , and not the exciting kind where you say it with a wink and a half smile. A typical night would include reading a saucy monster tale, accompanied by one of her toys (purchases inspired by said monster romance, with appearances to match)
So when one of her clients is need of civilians to look for tracks and proof of a lake monster, she jumps at the chance.
Adrian is also a regular accountant, who likes to keep to himself in the woods. Oh and I did mention he is also a water sprite? (Otherwise known as a Nix or even a lake monster.) Drivin by his biological clock he has contacted a renowned matchmaker (iykyk) to help with what could be his final heat, and final chance at producing offspring. Adrian just hopes his date didn't get lost in the woods, maybe he should go look for her....
Amy is more then okay with Adrian thinking that she is his witch date, but will he be when he finds out?
What follows can only be described as spicy, toe curling,  and a night to remember. (Can someone open a window, it's getting hot in here!) I never thought that I would find oviposition sexy, but I highly attribute that to Lark's writing.
Favorite Moments: A  leading lady who knows what she wants, all the toys, he comes prelubed
Least Favorite: It's a novella so I really can't complain about it being too short, but I want more of this couple already! (Also Seamus the neighbor was very intriguing, and would love him to get his own story)
That being said, there is something to be said for Lillian Lark's ability to weave world building and story into a 104 page monster romance novella. (There are high fantasy authors I wish I could send this book to, and be like, this is how you do it guys!)
I always feel safe reading her books because she is one of the few romance authors I see consistently put content warnings in her books. I never have to worry about tentatively turning the pages, or holding my breath waiting for an assault scene that some authors seem to take glee in sneaking into their story.
As with all of her books, I highly recommend this one as well! If you are looking for a sweet and spicy short story to brighten your day, this is the one for you.
The Cover
I absolutely adore this cover art! There is such great movement, color, and I enjoy how it is reminiscent of an older romance cover(You know the ones, with heaving bosoms!) 
, but is just so perfectly modern with great composition. 
This is as pretty common pose, male leads behind the leading lady, typically with a hand or other body part possessively touching them. Yet there is nothing common about this cover. Amy's neck is turned, her eyes closed, it's just so romantic. I like how Adrian has his hands on her lower belly, some foreshadowing done wonderfully. The title font is bold, and just matches the vibe of the cover and the contents so well. I find the blurb about the the a "love bathhouse romance" a bit harder to read. The thinner font gets a bit lost against the darker background, but nothing too noticable.
