The Monster

Boston Belles, Book 3

By: L.J. Shen

Narrated by: Savannah Peachwood, Jacob Morgan

From Wall Street Journal best-selling author L.J. Shen comes a brand-new romantic mafia stand-alone about the thin line between love and obsession.

“Maybe we were never meant for each other. But that night at the carnival, when you showed me who you were, I figured out who I wanted to be.”

The most important thing I’d ever read was scribbled on the door of a portable restroom, engraved into plastic at a carnival on the outskirts of Boston.

Lust lingers, love stays.

Lust is impatient, love waits.

Lust burns, love warms.

Lust destroys, but love? Love kills.

Maybe it was always my destiny to fall in love with a monster.

When other kids stayed awake at night fearing the pointy-toothed beast hiding in their closet, I longed to see mine.

I wanted to feed it, domesticate it, understand it.

Sam and I were only allowed to love each other in the dark.

Once our story unfolded, and the truth came to light, I was the one to cut the cord.

My name is Aisling Fitzpatrick, and I have a confession to make.

Sam Brennan is not the only monster in this story.

Awesome

I Love this book! It’s just so realistic it’s just a book around, it’s a must read!

Great

Wasn’t what I expected was a great book that loved the characters the storyline how it continued on with the previous books and characters not necessarily my favorite female narrator of my favorite male can’t wait for the blast to see how it goes

Love it !!

Very beautiful and quirky!! Love every minute of it!!! love the banter between Ash and Sam.

So good!

Each book in this series gets better and better. The characters were complex, interesting and funny. L.J Shen is super talented and I love the ways she brings the characters to life. What also makes this superb is Jacob Morgan (he’s my absolute favorite). Savannah Peachwood is also wonderful to listen to. Do yourself a favor and get this book immediately!

Not sure what I think?

I have been waiting for "The Monster", and it just didn't do it for me. My favorite is the first book"The Hunter", all the men in the series have serious issues. What I didn't like about this book was his "spoiler alert" sudden devotion to his piece of crap mother. I won't give more up, just it's seemed to be out of character for the Fitzpatrick brother's and father. I know they had to built Ashlings character but the story was just off and just not true to the character's. Yea, I get why SAM is nuts, but I can't put my finger on it, it just seemed to be drug out.

Can't say not worth the credit, but good luck.

Yes, more than likely I will get the next book it's "DEVIN's" and the HOT crazy sister turn I just hope they stick to the characters true nature. Just not sure how they can pull off the next book and will L.J. Shen wrap-up the ending for "ALL" the characters (baby's included) and not leave us hanging, only time will tell.
