A hunter bride and the King of Shades

Ophelia’s upbringing places her among the Hunters, a family charged with defending humans from nocturnal creatures. Her fascination with monsters sets her apart, and an arranged marriage to the King of Shades brings that interest into her own life. The central tension is personal as well as fantastical: Ophelia must persuade Allerick, her surly, not-quite-human husband, that she belongs in the role. Presented as a standalone MF monster romance, the book combines a human-and-monster pairing with the arranged-marriage premise.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adult readers seeking a standalone fantasy romance with a human-and-monster pairing.
  • Readers interested in arranged-marriage romance and supernatural courtship.
  • Readers comfortable with the publisher’s stated 18+ audience.

Book overview

Ophelia has a dirty secret.

 

Well, it's not really a secret anymore.

 

Ophelia was born into a family of Hunters, tasked with protecting the humans from the creatures of the night who feast on their fear.

 

Except Ophelia always found the idea of monsters kind of intriguing. She even made the grave sin of committing some X-rated monster thoughts to paper-which in hindsight may not have been the best idea because her parents were mortified-but you live and learn. Well, everyone finds out your secret, you get banished from society, and then you learn.

 

But the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity Ophelia has been waiting for to make good on some of those fantasies has arrived. The King of Shades requires a hunter bride, and Ophelia is the best fit for the job.

 

Now she just needs to convince her surly monster husband, Allerick, that she's the best fit for him.

 

Luxuria: A Monster Romance is an MF standalone arranged marriage romance between a human and her not-quite-human husband suitable for readers 18+
