Doves and Demons

Freaks of Nature Duet, Book 1

By: Clio Evans

Narrated by: Lexi Evans, Logan Anare

Welcome to London, where the roaring twenties are filled with fangs and freaks.

When Irene is kidnapped by a gang of monsters, she is shoved straight into a world of magic and murder.

A mothman. An Unseelie. A demonic plague doctor.

The Freaks are a terrifying group ready to wreak havoc on the world that destroyed their humanity. As these creatures drag Irene into the dark, they crave her soul, mind—and body.

The longer these four are together, the faster they fall into a terrifying type of love.

Will the demons take the wings from their caged dove, or will they set her free before their world devours her?

Doves and Demons is the first book in the Freaks of Nature Duet and will be a complete story for the characters. No cliffhanger, but the plot threads go into the second book, which will have a different set of characters. This is a dark, spicy, why-choose steampunk monster romance.

Worth it

I’m not a huge fan of accents and these were kind of muddled but I loved the entire book.

Sexy Steampunk Goodness

This was a delightfully smutty escape into a fantasy world. The story is fine, not super involved. Just your basic “Monsters trying to take over humans” story.

For a while, there was a good balance between the story and the smut, and that’s what makes a smutty book good. However…



***SPOILERS AHEAD***

The scene where they’re all 3 together with her when she’s “mad” at them and making them beg… Good Lord. It was just too much. I wanted her to ACTUALLY be angry and ACTUALLY make them beg, not just “playfully” beg. I needed more stakes in the relationships after everything they’d done to her. There was no reason any of them should be actually “in love” with her, they knew little to nothing about her other than she was magically taming them with the help of the dove. *Shrug* Like I said, it was a fun book for what it was and it got me out of a reading slump. So… overall it was fun.

Freaks of Nature and their dove 🕊️

Clio Evans can do me no wrong! Her ability to make me feel like I’m in the story myself is immaculate. Loved this book!

Steampunk meets dark RH

Really loved this story. It’s very C/NC so if that ISN’T a trigger for you, I highly recommend this!

spicy dark monster romance

4.5 ⭐ 5 🌶️ 5 🎧

That was so much fun. A dark, why choose, morally black monster romance with some exquisite peens and an FMC with a ton of spunk, I was in absolute heaven. I binged this audiobook in an afternoon and I'm already begging for more.

I honestly could not get enough of these MMCs. A mobster mothman, a demonic plague doctor and an unseelie fae, all of which want to hate her so badly, yet can't stay away. The back and forth and enemies to lovers vibes were to unalive for here.

The audio was amazing. Lexi Evans and Logan Anare were both incredible. Their accents were so good, especially Logan's, and I had such a great time listening to them. They really brought these characters to life and I'm hoping they'll be doing book two as well.
