So I Banged Bigfoot

The Mating Game #4

by Kristen Strassel

The fuzzy beast saved my life, and I want to thank him...I'm so excited to have won my very own episode of The Mating Game, but I'm getting a little antsy waiting for filming to start.

When an afternoon adventure leads me straight into an avalanche, my life flashes before my eyes. Someone is coming to save me, and he's not human.

Please let him be friendly...

I wake up in Lars' arms. In his bed. He's a security specialist for The Mating Game, and I've only met him in his human form. Now, he's anything but. He's big, fuzzy, and has a penchant for talking dirty.

Things get hot fast, and the next thing I know, he's asking me to take my clothes off. It's more like a demand.

Am I really going to bang Bigfoot?

I'm totally gonna do this...

About the author

Kristen Strassel is far cooler than she’ll make herself sound in this bio. She enjoys spending time with the voices in her head—nudging the characters toward those bad decisions and a happily ever after. When she’s not writing, she’s often still in the land of make-believe—doing makeup for film and television. And when she’s not doing any of that, she enjoys making her house look like a Pinterest board, watching football, and road trips to the middle of nowhere.

This was another great addition to the series. The characters were endearing and kept me entertained from start to finish.

I had mixed feelings about this story. I downgraded 1-1/2 stars since I didn’t realize that it’s a prequel for Hannah’s full experience on The Mating Game and not truly a standalone. Hannah has been waiting for her own episode to find true love, and to be matched with a shifter. When she gets caught in an avalanche, Hannah is rescued by Lars. Lars is a Sasquatch shifter who works for the show on occasion. He lives alone in the mountains during winters. Aside from their connection and a steamy encounter, the story introduces some background about Lars, including the fact that he can’t shift at will and may be the last Bigfoot in the world. There is some very intriguing foreshadowing about their full story to come. I’m not a fan of prequels that leave the reader wanting more unless I can dive right into the full book. And yes, I’m now compelled to order their book to find out what happens next (smiling). I received a free copy of this prequel and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Bored with waiting for her shot on The Mating Game reality show, Hannah (h) takes a drive outside town and ends up trapped under an avalanche of snow, only to be rescued by Bigfoot Lars (H), or as he prefers to be known 'part of the mountain.' Lars works security for the show but is in his present form until Spring when his human form returns. He's been drawn to Hannah from the moment he saw her and the connection he feels for her allowed him to find her when she was in danger. Things heat up quickly between the two in Lars's cave, though he has to take special care to prepare Hannah for their being together...luckily for Hannah, Lars has an special tail suited to do just that. Lars is so sweet and caring, and his choice at the end is so brave to know that he's going to put himself out there. Ultra-hot and steamy monster-human, size difference, romantic quickie. Looking forward to continuing Lars and Hannah's journey in "So I Fell for Bigfoot."

Part of the Mating Games series, this quick read features contestant Hannah. She goes for a drive while production is delayed and is caught in an avalanche. Luckily, Lars was nearby and saved her. When he is in human form, he sometimes helps on the Mating Games show as security and saw Hannah on set. However, during the winter months he is unable to shift from his natural form.

Hannah has been looking for a mate, but can she pass up on the opportunity to have some fun with Lars?

This book is the first part of Hannah's story and I can't wait to read more!.

Hey Baby, What That Tail Do?

What a fun and quirky ride this book was! For such a short story the author packs in some really fun to follow characters and as a neurospicy Goblin I can definitely relate to Lars here: "I didn’t know how to human. It wasn’t a skill I ever needed or cared to perfect." Mood Lars, mood. I also really liked the Bigfoot mythos in the story, being both timeless and also a tragic figure because he's alone. And when it comes to bow chicka-wow-wow times I like what the author did with..... tail mechanics. 5/5 Stars.

Hannah signed up to be part of a reality show, The Mating Game. When her segment is delayed starting filming, she heads out to look around, but the weather takes a turn for the worse.

Lars is a shifter, who takes his beast form in the winter, and is part of the security team of the show. When he sees Hannah, he can feel the pull towards her and when she gets lost in snow he saves her.

This is a fast and steamy tale of Hannah and Lars as they spend time together in a storm.

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. I liked the characters in the first part of their romance. There are a lot of complications for them to overcome. Hannah is waiting her turn to be on the Mating Game. While exploring she's buried by an avalanche and saved by her bigfoot mate. Lars cannot function in society during the winter. His other side takes over and there's no calling it back. While stranded at his cabin, it's hard to deny the pull between them. This was a good start and I'm looking forward to the rest of their story

This mating show story is just a taste of these two characters. After a night of bliss they are separated! Choices must be made. Sacrifices must be made. These two characters could melt the snow off his mountain their chemistry was so hot! But now we wait to read the next chapter in their journey to being mates or not .

Being rescued by Big Foot and the name doesn't just describe one attribute. This is an amazing teaser to the next episode of The Mating Game. Lots of heat and instant instincts gets the blood flowing for the next bachelor reveal. Awesome.

This is a prequel, so be forewarned.
Hannah has been waiting for her moment in The Mating Show to find the one, but on a walk, she walks right into an avalanche.
Lars is a shifter who loses control of his other form in winter, and as luck would have it, he saves Hannah.

We finally learn what happened to Hannah when she got caught in the avalanche. You aren't going to believe it! I can't wait to read the book about her episode, it is going to be epic. Lars is a hot mess. He is stuck in his shifted form until spring and his mountain cave, er, castle is very lonely. When he senses that Hannah is nearby he can't believe and realizes she must be in trouble. Bigfoot to the rescue.

I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.

Hannah had been waiting a long time for her episode on the Mating Game

a day trip meant to keep Hannah from being bored turns into a very different type of journey, complete with avalanches, mythical creatures, majestic mountains, and a far away online public

bittersweet new romance

[Trixie]

This is just a prelude to the Big Story. We don't have a happily ever, but our MCs had that one moment were they have a happy ending.

Our MC is joining the Mating Game to claim his mate.
