Big Enough to Bite

Harmony Glen

by Andie Fenichel

In a town full of monsters, love might be the scariest thing of all.

Sam
Harmony Glen’s been my home since the town welcomed my kind with open arms. It’s a safe haven for monsters like me. It’s been fun living amongst humans. Over time, all types of people have begun calling this place home. Now, there’s a new vampire in town.

She walks through the park at night, sometimes singing soft, haunting melodies. Her voice hooked me from the first note. I watch from the shadows, drawn to her. So when she asks me to build a stone wall in her garden, I say yes—fast.

I lay bricks by day and try to win her over with charm, but she’s slow to trust. I long to uncover the secrets of her past and be a part of her future. Maybe a giant isn’t what she’s looking for. But my heart’s already hers, whether she wants it or not.

Mari
I was born in 1869 in a small Romanian village. My people were wanderers. After I was turned into a vampire at twenty, I left my family—but not by choice. My maker was a monster in more ways than one, and it took many decades to escape him.

The Great Revelation exposed us to the world; fear and curiosity followed. I’ve searched several lifetimes for a place to belong. Harmony Glen is the first town that might actually feel like home.

The creatures and humans here are kind, even when I’m not. It might have been a mistake to invite a giant into my garden, but I couldn’t resist. He’s steady, gentle, and strong in every way that matters. He makes my fangs ache—and he might just be big enough to bite.

3.5/5 rounding up

Vampire FMC & giant MMC was a lot of fun! I feel like I don't read enough monster x monster stories. I liked both characters and thought this novella was pretty well written! It was pretty short but had good pacing and nothing felt too rushed. Would have read a full length novel about these two.

This was a new to me author, and I'll definitely be checking out their other works. They all seem like pretty fun, quick reads

Meh

I mean it was fine, I was intrigued by the storyline but, I don't know, it just felt very flat for me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Harmony Glen's been Sam's home since the town welcomed monsters into the fold. It's a safe haven for all kinds of monsters. And Sam has to admit it's been great living amongst humans. Over time, all types of people have begun to call Harmony Glen home. Now though, there's a new vampire in town.

She walks through the park at night and softly sings. She has a beautiful voice, her haunting melodies tugging at his heart. So one day when she asks him to build her a garden he swiftly agrees.

Now he lays his bricks by day and tries to win her over with his charm, but he can tell she has secrets. Secrets that make her slow to trust. She may not be looking for a giant, but his heart is already invested in her.

In 1869 Mari was born in a small Romanian village and her people were wanderers. At 20 she was turned into a vampire and left the only family she'd ever known, but not by choice. Her Maker was a monster in so many different ways, and it's taken her decades to get away from him.

After The Great Revolution exposed them to the world; fear and curiosity followed. She's searched for so long for a place to feel like home and Harmony Glen is that place.

There are creatures and humans that are so kind. Maybe she shouldn't have invited a giant into her garden, but she couldn't resist and what's done is done. He's so gentle, sweet, and kind in every possible way. He makes her fangs ache so much and she wonders if he'd be just big enough to bite.

This was a really cute story and Andie Fenichel nailed it as usual. It kept me entertained from the get go and that's the kind of book that I like. All in all of you like fantasy and monsters I would definitely give this book a whirl.

Can a giant and a vampire find love together? Mari has been in hiding for over a century. Her sire is a very cruel vampire, and he wants her back. She escaped him before, but can she do it again? Sam loved Mari the minute he saw her. She has the voice of an angel and Sam will do anything to get close to her. When he puts up a wall at Mari's house, he sees his chance to get close. When another vampire shows up in town, Mari knows that her time in town is short, and she will have to run. Can Sam convince her to stand her ground? She doesn't want to endanger anyone else, but how can she leave Sam? He will follow her to the ends of the earth if he has to.

Another great and unexpected read from one of my favorite contemporary, historical and romantasy authors. Who knew a giant and a vampire could fit so well. Mari is not a typical vampire and is never allowed to stay anywhere for long. Harmony Glen is about to change all that. When her sire shows up to take her back to captivity, her gentle giant hilariously puts him in his place. Add in a helpful Original Vamp (obviously not Klaus) and the acceptance of both humans and other monsters and it’s a wonderful read. I read it straight through and enjoyed it thoroughly. Can’t wait for Biting Bigfoot.

What a sweet story with a size and specie difference. They were attracted to each other before she hired him. He convinced her to enjoy life outside her self imposed lifestyle. Once she did, they grew to love each other. After a danger from her past was dealt with, they got their HEA..

Enjoyable love story!

A love story where the main characters meet in Harmony Glen, a small town of humans and monsters living side by side with acceptance of their differences and the strength of community protection! Differences can be accepted and everyone is worthy of love if they are kind of heart!

I received this as an arc from the author and I’m voluntarily leaving my honest review.

This was a really cute monster romance. It was a short, well written story with a great flow. I loved the idea of two different kinds of monsters finding a HEA together. Mari and Sam had so much chemistry and I loved them together.
