Prey

           


Title: Prey
Series: Dark Monster Fantasy #1
Author: Cari Silverwood
Published: May 28, 2018
Pages: 116
Genre: SciFi / Fantasy

When Mila discovers her sister will be the next victim on Sacrifice Day, her normal reply would be, sorry, I'm busy. 

After viewing ancient data and seeing the massive size of stoneshifters, Mila decides to rescue Tiana. Her sister is blood and she'd rather not see her tied to the sacrifice table and turned into jam.

Everything goes wrong, of course.

Lord Zarblu, stoneshifter and owner of the enormous black fortress looming over the city, turns his gaze upon Mila.

Like a giant cat with a teensy mouse, Zarblu plays with Mila. Catch...release...catch. Gentle and caring are words that no stone-beast monster should claim, surely?

Desiring something that might kill you is insane yet the sacrifice table begins to look attractive. Zarblu is a big, strong, determined male who's had a thousand, thousand years to contemplate life.

What if he isn't quite the monster she thought he was...
What if he wants her to be his sacrifice?

If size difference is your thing, this is the book for you. Wowzer. 

I'm really not sure about this one though. I probably should have DNFd it. But I also absolutely couldn't not finish it. I had to know. And now I know. And that's about it. 

Don't get me wrong. It's hot. I was really rooting for Zarblu the whole time. I want Tiana to get what's coming to her. Because she definitely deserves some punishment for betraying her sister like that. But also Mila was happy about it in the end... 

I wish Ledderik was book 2. I would like to see his journey, but IDK if I have another book in me to get to it!
