This is the hotline for House Monstra: Spa and Relaxation Therapies, providing premium spa services to creatures, cryptids, and cultists since 1968. How may we help you?....


This book is an absolute gift to the world for monster erotica fans. This was incredibly spicy, yet also managed to sneak in some awesome characters, heartfelt connections and fantastic trans/POC representation with the MC.

Payton, is an escort for monster clientele and seems to have a wildly fantastic time whilst doing so.

Each chapter focuses on Payton's experience with a different client including:

A Bog Creature (so much tentacle stuffing 🥵)

A Ghost Threesome (the mirror and invisible penetration scene 🥵 and also like so surprisingly emotional)

An encounter with his coworker werewolf because of exposure to Dryad (sex pollen and knotting 🥵)

A Drake (a virgin dragon with a two pronged situation 🥵)

A Wraith (the chase and capture dynamic 🥵)

Another encounter with his coworker (with a very sweet little potential for more 🥵)


As far as I'm concerned this novella is a must read for fans of monster erotica. I hope Hoang considers writing more encounters in this universe cause this was a fantastic collection of very spicy stories ❤️





✨✨CW✨✨ tentacles, DP, knotting, sex pollen, foresome, invisible partners, hemipenes, CNC, primal play, edging and face fucking.

That was some of the hottest shit I’ve read in a while.

Full disclaimer - this is all dear Evie’s fault, because no matter what my AO3 or fanfiction.net history says (lies, all dirty lies), I’m an innocent soul at heart 😇 Now, with that out of the way...

FUCK ME SIDEWAYS 😳 Monster erotica slaps different, I’m telling you! This collection of interconnected stories about a trans man Peyton working as an escort for various monstrous clientele delivered not only the promised monster fucking, but so much more.

Somehow, it felt...cozy, almost?? It’s not just a mindless smut (though the smut is smutting allllright) but there’s depth, emotions, and it’s generally so sex-positive (...obviously, Teru, DUH) that you can’t help but feel joy...among other things 😳 I mean, I went full “awww” a few times! While reading monster porn! I’m confused. I need more.

🔥 There’s tentacles - two hours of constant fucking in a lake, orgasm after orgasm. Then, a very unique take on ghost sex. Being knotted by a sweet werewolf colleague Hasim, after Peyton accidentally ingested a powerful aphrodisiac. There’s a virgin DRAKE with two 🍆🍆 - which of course leads to double penetration (weirdly enough, this one made my heart melt the most). Then Peyton got consensually chased by a wraith, with some non-con role-play 🔥

Woah. If I weren’t saving five stars for my absolute favorites, this little monstrous piece of literature would get them.

Thank you Shame on Evie for bringing this to my attention! Do you have more?? ❤️

I’m a bit discombobulated by how absolutely amazing this was. Ok yeah, it’s monster smut, but it had an unexpected depth to the storyline and the characters, great trans rep, and a super cute surprise happy ending.
I’ll go through each ‘episode’ just ‘cause I feel like chatting, but if you’re stopping here cool TL;DR — Monster lovers, read this please.

Spoilers ahead

Beneath The Surface

“Thank you, sir, for selecting House Monstra for your needs. We hope you’re satisfied with your experience, and we look forward to serving you again.”


A pretty standard tentacle smut scene, but gave a nice intro to our MC Payton and the escort business.

🐙 Tentacles

Before We Go

Peyton looked between his legs, still seeing nothing but the indents in his thighs shaped like hands. But past the end of the table was the wall of mirrors. His eyes fixed on his reflection, watching his muscles contract around the invisible cock filling him.


I would’ve given the book five stars even if it consisted only of this short piece, because it was so damn good. Three ghosts, wife/ late ex-husband/other husband, need help crossing over by ‘connecting’ one last time, using our lovely Payton as a conduit.
At first I was like, cool ghost sex, but I did not expect to get fucking emotional over it. I didn’t have cry over ghost sex on my 2025 bingo card, but yes, I did indeed cry. Seeing the two husbands finally be able to express the feelings they never got to express in life, the love they shared but couldn’t show, it broke my heart a little. Glad they found peace in their afterlife. Oh, and the ghost sex was also hot.

It was as though they were all bound to each other, fated to come back together no matter what separated them.


👻 Ghost possession
👻 MMTF? (3 ghosts, one Payton)
👻 Spit-roasting

Knot Complicated

“You don’t need to treat me like a client.” “Maybe I just think—” Hasim’s fingers lightly trailed down Peyton’s belly—“that I’m fortunate to get to touch you.”


After accidentally taking an aphrodisiac, Payton’s wolf coworker, Hasim, helps him… with his big knot. A very sexy but also sweet piece. The sparks were electric between these two, so maybe there might be more of our wolfie in Payton’s future?

🐺 Wolf shifter
🐺 Knotting

A Hot Treasurer

“You can come as many times as you want. It’s okay.” “But you’ll… Isn’t it messy?” Peyton had a broad smile. “Make a mess of me then.”


How can you make a dragon cute?? This was hot, of course, but also super sweet and the dragon was so gentle and caring.

🐉 Dragon/Drake
🐉 Virgin

Don’t Look

Well, who would agree to be hunted for money? Peyton apparently.


A fun & sexy primal play moment with a Wraith, a shadow entity. Weird that a shadow can fuck you, but I’m here for it.

- Wraith
- Primal play
- CNC

You Again

“Do you want more?” Hasim’s voice was low and a little unsteady. “God, Hasim,” Peyton heard himself rasp. “I’ve been wanting you for weeks.”


Such a lovely ending to this smutty journey. I knew there was something between our sweet Payton and his wolfie. I could read about Payton’s adventures and the new romance between him and Hasim for hours.

🐺 Face-fucking
🐺 Edging

{BRB, gonna go binge all of V.T. Hoang’s books ‘cause I’m in love.}

Other CWs
- Transphobia
- Almost dead-naming
- Double & triple penetration
- Mild breeding kink

Free right now on Kobo, Smashwords, and itch.io!

(I received a complimentary ARC from the author, my opinions and ramblings are my own.)

I went in thinking it would be 6 short erotica stories about monsterfucking, and it was. But it also had the sweetest blossoming romance...and now I expect a future story for those two!
Fun monster-fucking right off the bat with a mostly underwater tentacle scene, ghost-fucking, forced proximity with a needs to fuck scene with a coworker, well-written women, supportive sister, positive sex work rep.

And a virgin dragon! Diphallic dragon dicking action.

Stories contain sex in the following combinations: MX, MMMF, MM.

Tags: Monster-fucking erotica novella, 6 stories, trans MC, trans author, tentacle-fucking, how many tentacles are there?, tentacle penetration, knotting, DP, triple penetration, minor belly distention from penetration, mild breeding kink, partially shifted sex (wolf-shifter), ghost possession, sex with invisible entities (ghost-fucking), first time for a dragon, hemipenes, diphallia, cock pocket, rimming, forked tongue, primal kink, predator-prey roleplay, CNC, come-eating, mentions of past transphobia from a close family member, depictions of almost dead-naming a trans character by a close family member, mentions of past transphobia from an intimate partner

Really creative and delicious monster erotica with a trans man main who, refreshingly, still likes his equipment. The escort service is actually very wholesome, treated as emergency or accomodational services for paranormals. Be prepared for some mind bending but super hot shorts, and a surprisingly sweet mini romantic through line that left me wanting more.

This novella was such a fun read!! Even with all the smut it was surprisingly wholesome. It felt like every interaction was so sweet, like everyone got exactly what they needed. It was almost therapeutic to read!

I’m adding this to my ‘comfort reads’ list for sure ❤️ my favorite stories were the werewolf and the dragon!! They were so cute ☺️

Thank you BookSprout, and V.T. Hoang for sending me this advanced review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This was an extremely well done little spicy book! All 6 stories were beautifully written, with so much love, care, and respect for everyone. The TW at the beginning was greatly appreciated, and accurate as well.

I loved that Peyton is trans, and how it is okay to not want to change all aspects of your body to match your gender. I feel like that there is often a lot of shame in the community for not having gender reassignment surgery.

For each story the spice was completely different, and we got an interesting variety of clients as well. It was really hard to pick a favorite story, but I think the dragon one was the sweetest. The Wraith story was the most unusual. Tt's fun that a situation can have a little fear, but also be hot as hell for both participants.

I would love to see more written in this world, and also look forward to the blooming relationship to flourish too!

After reading the synopsis of what this book was about, I thought maybe I could give it a try and perhaps I might like a story or two in it. First, each story is really a chapter as these are all woven together stories that progress through time of about a year (from what I could gather) in the life of Peyton, a trans man. I figured the story was going to be purely monster smut and not have any plot. However, each story gripped me with how much emotion is written into the interactions, which are incredibly steamy - seriously don't kid yourself, this is an erotica collection of stories. But the depth of emotions, feelings and interwoven story thread surprised me so much that once I finished the first story I read straight through the end of the book without so much as moving from my seat. I was that engrossed in what was going to happen in Peyton's story. And then when Christmas came and he is set up by his mom - my heart about swooned with the ending. Just absolutely loved these stories and now I want to see what else this author has written.

I was surprised by how much I liked this. I thought it would be pure spicy fluff, but I got genuinely attached to Peyton over the course of these stories. We get a real sense of who Peyton is as a person from his various interactions and the little details included at the start of each short story/episode, and while I would have happily read another dozen of Peyton's adventures in escorting, the last story was a completely satisfactory ending in terms of Peyton's character arc. Peyton himself doesn't change much over the course of the book, since he's pretty happy with his life and self-assured throughout, but he does get some emotional resolution at the end.

V.T. Hoang came on my radar thanks to the bundle of books I picked up on Itch.io for the trans rights readathon, but I'm going to have to check out his Ancient's Bargain series, because this was great.

This unique and entertaining read introduces Peyton, a transgender man working as an escort for supernatural clients. The concept of a human navigating intimate encounters with various creatures is innovated, blending humor, heart, and intriguing world building.

Peyton's interactions with his diverse clientele are engaging, with each steamy encounter offering new and exciting experiences. The mix of paranormal romance, forbidden attraction, and monster human dynamics adds layers of intrigue and heat to the narrative. Peyton's character is well-developed, and his identity is seamlessly integrated into the story.

Overall, this imaginative tale provides a fun and distinctive twist on the typical paranormal read.

I loved this!

Peyton was fantastic, and I loved how the characters were written.

What I liked:
•MMC is bratty but also wonderful with clients
•The variety of clientele. I was using Maps to see if the lake was real so I could plan my own trip there 🦑
•The surprise romance.
•Also, why was the knot the hottest thing I’ve ever read?
•New meaning to double dragon

Triggers: trans character almost deadnamed, con noncon, spirit possession (they were sweet though), prey/predator dynamics for one of the episodes

All in all I really enjoyed this and will be reading more of the author’s work.

This book was such a horny vibe and I love it. In this book we follow Peyton on his journey as a monster escort. House Monstra is a spa that caters to the more monstrous clientele. While relaxing spa treatments are available Peyton specializes in a more spicy service. This series of short stories follows Peyton meeting all different types of monsters and meeting their specific needs. While the steamy bits are the real meat of the stories there is a little sprinkle of romance as well. Peyton finds himself in a situation where his own needs need to be met and the new employee at House Monstra helps him out. The thing is that Peyton feels different during this encounter and their may be some budding feelings between the two of them. This book ends on more of a happy for now note so I would love to read more of these stories. If you are a big fan of spicy monster stories then check this out. In these stories you will find unique monsters, different anatomy, primal play, tentacles, knotting, trans MMC, sex worker characters, and a sweet budding romance.

An erotic novella with multiple partners and a tender dynamic that made me tear up, House Monstra Hotline, was a short read I couldn't put down. Author V. T. Hoàng packed this paranormal romance with a sweet plot featuring a thick backstory and a familial acceptance that added a cozy vibe. I enjoyed this quick read and look forward to reading more by Hoàng!

Fantastic erotica. First time I read anything from this author, but I saw this and had to pick it up because it has an interesting blurb, and I live for collections of short stories.

The story revolves around Peyton, a trans man who is a escort working at the House Monstra: Spa and Relaxation Therapies. There are six short stories, each one about his experiences with each client, and a surprise near the end. Each chapter contains smut and different kinks/elements with a continued timeline.

I really liked that there was a presence of MC's ties to the culture he shares with his family, as well as their native language. It also showed transphobia as an issue and, while horrible and sad in itself, it is part of his backstory and helps the reader get close to MC. All the details we got from him were added organically through the story and it made Peyton a compelling MC after learning some of his past experiences and more from the people close to him, while his personality shines through every dialogue. It was well done considering this is erotica and showing more details about the MC(s) isn't usually the focus.

I also liked the humour, it was a surprise because I usually am picky with comedy in books, but here it only helped make the story more fun without taking away the main genre and I still could take the story seriously. Really loved the queer elements as well.

I have to admit my favorite was the werewolf guy. I really loved the ending and how everything was wrapped up. When it comes to collections or short stories (be it erotica, romance or any other genre), they usually leave me hanging for more (in a good or not so good way if I felt something was missing), and while I definitely would love reading a part 2, here I felt very satisfied with the ending for MC and his happiness.

This was overall, a fun and hot experience. I will be checking this author's other works for sure soon!
