An Unhinged Smutty Halloween Monster Romance

She was chosen for the fire, but claimed by the shadow.

Village healer Elyse has always known her duty. When she is chosen as the annual harvest sacrifice, she prepares for a brutal end in the heart of the bonfire, her life the price for her people's prosperity.
But the being that comes for her is not a nameless spirit. He is Morric, an ancient god of shadow, and he doesn't want her death. He wants her. He offers an impossible choice: perish as a failed offering, or kneel as his queen in a realm of eternal twilight.
Pulled into a world of dark magic and suffocating pleasure, Elyse finds her body betraying her with every degrading command. He whispers that she was made for him, that her pleasure is his anthem, and the most terrifying part is the darkness inside her that screams in agreement. She must navigate his ancient pain and her own awakening desires to find her place, not as a sacrifice, but as a ruler.

This standalone book has themes of monster romance, forced proximity, power exchange, primal play, touch her and you die, fated mates.

This was a No for me.

I couldn't get past the 2nd chapter. The lack of warmth, misunderstanding of feelings, intonation and variance of voices completely missing. The story may be a great read, but the AI narration ruined the listening experience.
