About this listen

Confirmed wallflower Penelope Essex has every intention of tending her brother's library for the rest of her days. But first, she must survive the Monsters Ball.

Held at a remote gothic estate, the three-day ball is rife with monstrous nobles all determined to claim a mate. They'll do whatever it takes to seduce her into hidden corners, to tempt her into signing a marriage contract. Escaping with her spinsterhood intact seems impossible, until she spots her childhood crush: the now monstrous Duke of Roth.

Lord William Warwick is normally as cool as the cold fire covering his body. When he became a frost-flame demon, he swore he'd never take a mate. Yet when he sees Penny Essex struggling to resist three monstrous nobles, he rushes to her side and pretends to be her fiance.

A fake betrothal is the perfect cover. Except the longer they're together, the more she wants his fire to claim her. But will her duke treasure her heart and her beloved books, or will their passion send them both up in flames?

Contains mature themes.

Not as sexy as the gargoyle one, but cute

Nice story. Not my favorite in the series, but worth reading. Penny is a book worm sent to the monsters ball after she sabotages her season to avoid marriage. William is a man turned fire monster, he must marry or lose his Dukedom to a terrible cousin that will fleece all the tenants.

Cute - Bridgerton copycat

This is what I expect the Bridgerton series would look like if there were monsters. It’s not bad but kind of sedate. Pen was written to be somewhat of an idiot which seems par for the course with authors lately. Overall, I’m not sorry I used a credit but it’s likely just a one time listen. Narrators we’re fabulous!
