Arrows and Apologies (Monsters & Muses)

Product Information

Ugh she was such a strong fmc that literally frustrated and amazed me with how hard headed she could be sometimes. Instead, Cora (who is so irresistible but SO unappealing to me) goes round and round with Alastair keeping him at arms length even until the last line of the epilogue. This book is said to be inspired by Apollo and Daphne, but I didn't see any resemblance to the mythology anywhere. This man was unhinged for this woman, there would be moments of him just thinking odd things such as: “𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘬 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘳𝘪𝘣 𝘤𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘧𝘧 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦, 𝘴𝘰 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘬𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘢𝘧𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥.

They don’t strip bare in an alley and spread their delicious thighs, and they certainly don’t ask the monster to fuck them. Then at sixteen, I switch to a traditional bow and arrow when hunting with my father because the sound of the shotgun obscured my other senses too much, and I want to be able to focus on hearing while I perfect my shot. Alastair was much more then I was expecting from the glimpses we got in the previous book about his brother. In saying that, my job is to see if there is any connection throughout the writing to the specified ancient mythology at all.I really was not expecting much out of this book but I got a man obsessed, feral for his girl and soft for her.

I mean, she gets bashed over the head while snooping in the PI Marshall’s bedroom, finds evidence of him tailing and spying on her, and her first instinct is to think it was Alastair who did it and then put her in his bed? He becomes obsessed with Cora almost immediately and the things he does while not right are what he needed to do to get what he wanted. it would make sense if we were given more of a resigned (but still present love) than what we got from her which was nothing until the end. Anywho, keeping it pushing, they part and think they’ll never see each other until a day or two later, I kid you not, she shows up to interview for an assistants position he has open… love that don’t we? every time something happened to cora i swear it would be brushed off or forgotten, like nothing even happened.This had both English and Spanish of the "title" and "edition" as well as some descriptions on the back. She didn’t expect her new boss to be the hot, British stranger she hooked up with the night before her interview, or for him to be so brazen with his desires. And then of course, it’s like the stereotypical enemies to lovers vibes where they claim to hate each other but are fucking each other brains out like there’s no tomorrow. One thing leads to another and they’re fucking up against a brick wall and he’s talking about impregnating her… and he don’t even know ms girls name🥲.

Read more about the condition New: A new, unread, unused book in perfect condition with no missing or damaged pages. Some people, though, never say anything new or different, so making sentences becomes less about the accuracy and more about context.She wasn’t even really looking for a job, but having an in with the mayor of the island where her brother went missing seemed like a good idea. i understand having it written in the sense that the reader experiences some of what the mc feels but it’s to the point that i didn’t even know if he was alive until the actual end. there was a plot twist wannabe at the end, but how can there be a plot twist when there’s no plot at all?

I always think that the plot of these books isn't the strongest part, but it was entertaining to keep me invested. The stories about the boogeyman were true, it appeared, only I learned then that most monsters weren’t the hideous creatures they’d been painted as. Like I read 300+ pages of words and I literally can’t tell you the reason as to why Alistair had Lucien and Marshall (an employee of his) wanting to see his downfall? Overall, this series grew on me, and now I'm really invested and love the twist they take on popular Greek Myths.So listen… I know I might have said that Elena and Kal were my favorite couple written by sav but CORA AND ALISTAIR? here’s how romance goes in this book: character a is obsessed with character b from the start, character b doesn’t seem to share the feeling but indulges in sexual activity, hot and cold behaviour and boom, at the end of the book character b suddenly loves a for some unidentified reason. Regardless, that was developed poorly because I literally didn’t feel a spark between Alistair and Cora at all, like even throughout the book. every time i read her books i swear the female characters do nothing for me, i can never connect with them. banter between the main leads is my favorite part of any love story, and the banter between cora and alistair had me thriving.
