Snake Believe

Monster Between the Sheets

De: Karla Doyle

Narrado por: Tom Campbell, Lexi Evans

CORA: Sent to Screaming Woods to write a magazine piece on its resident monsters, I'm ready to meet hairy beasts, ogres, vampires . . . what I'm not prepared for? A snake man. I'm terrified of snakes. Now I'll have to talk to a man-sized one on a daily basis, because he owns the motel where I'm staying. Once the initial shock of coming face to face with a walking, talking snake passes, I start to see Leroy for the man beneath the monster exterior. And the more I get to know my snake man, the more I realize my biggest fear would be losing him.

LEROY: At nineteen, I unknowingly drank the poisoned party punch that turned many of Screaming Woods' residents into monsters. Twenty-plus years later, I wouldn't change back if I could. I have the best of both species in me. My new anatomy has definite advantages, and because of them, I'm frequently propositioned. But that's not the kind of proposal I seek. I'm the loneliest snake in town until the day Cora walks into the motel I own—and promptly faints at the sight of me. The lovely magazine reporter is only in town to interview monsters for an article, but I know from the first day that I won't want to say goodbye to her. My charms have never failed me before, but I'm a one-hundred-and-eighty-pound embodiment of her biggest fear. That won't stop me from trying.

Contains mature themes.

Sweet, adorable, and crazy hot

Karla Doyle has something special with this series. This novella is charming, cute, and sexy. The fantastical town of Screaming Woods twenty years ago underwent an unlikely calamity in which everyone who drank punch at a party turned into a random type of monster, most of which are humanoid. In this book Leroy the snake man finds love with a lady journalist visiting town. Leroy is a nice guy who is very talented in the bedroom. No violence, a little bit of swearing, and a bunch of steam. A happy ever after and no cheating.

A Bit Redundant, but Fun

Okay, well the main thing was that I found it extremely redundant 😂 the dialogue was really repetitive. It was fun for a short, monster story. Admittedly it’s not a type of book I would usually pick up, but I’m glad I tested the waters. Honestly, it was more of a slow burn than I expected!
