Monster: A spicy bedtime story for adults

by I.V. Shady

One stare. One detour. One hell of a ride.

She lives for the thrill—her Ducati Monster, the wind in her face, and the freedom of the open road. But when a mysterious biker with a voice like sin and hands like fire enters her world, the ride takes a turn she never saw coming.

What starts as a staredown becomes a showdown of dominance, desire, and raw chemistry. In the quiet of the forest, surrounded by nature and motor oil, she finds herself bound not by ropes, but by the kind of lust that leaves bruises—and begs for more.

Monster is a high-heat, no-apologies short story for readers who like their romance rough, their heroines bratty, and their heroes dangerously in control.

30 pages, Kindle Edition

While out for a group ride on her Ducati, Luna’s attention is caught by a new rider. Attraction is instant between them & a detour is suggested. All bets (& leathers) are off at a lakeside location for the hottest of hook ups!

I love Ivy’s writing!! Despite this only being a short story (30pgs), she has the knack for drawing you in & sharing all the feels that the MC’s are experiencing.

It’s a steamy fantasy & any biketok lover’s dream!! Check it out!!

Instant chemistry between Luna and her monster man in this latest fantastic quick read by I V Shady. The mysterious biker in leather that cannot take his eyes off her and her teasing sassy nature makes for an explosively hot encounter on a motorcycle club ride out.
I absolutely loved how this novella brings adventure and plenty of spice together and even though it is only 30 pages, it’s a read you won’t want to miss out on!

Yo, I.V. Shady nailed it once more with this short, spicy novella. The biker? Leather-covered mystery, a voice that is like sin, and that atmosphere that completely makes you forget how to breathe. The best part was that the chemistry was not hot; it was off the scale. It is a must-read if you want a fast, freaky, and entirely raw-power-dynamics romance with no apologies. 🖤🏍️🔥.

This was a nice and quick read but boy was it packed with spice!! I loved the dynamic between these two, the dominant monster man and bratty kitten was really well done, but I love that she knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to take it.

Monster by I.V. Shady is a short, fiery burst of chemistry that wastes no time getting to the good stuff. In just 30 pages, this story delivers instant attraction, dominant energy, and mutual desire wrapped in leather, attitude, and roaring engines.

Luna is bold, bratty, and unapologetically herself — a woman who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to chase it. When she crosses paths with the man she dubs her Monster Man, the connection is immediate and electric. Their dynamic crackles with tension as dominance meets sass, and neither is willing to fully surrender control.

What makes this quick read work is the balance. While Monster Man’s commanding presence is undeniable, Luna is never overshadowed. She matches him beat for beat, claw for claw, making their chemistry feel equal, intense, and earned. This isn’t just about spice — it’s about two people who recognize the thrill in each other and lean into it without hesitation.

Fast, sexy, and adrenaline-fueled, Monster is perfect for readers looking for a quick hit of spice, confidence, and unapologetic desire. A wild ride from start to finish — and one worth taking. 🏍️🔥

Hot damn I.V. Shady did it again! I have been waiting for this short novella forever! You know this is going to be good when it opens u with Fast bikes. Fast Burns. And chemistry that doesn't ask permission. This short novella is about a badass Luna that finds her monster man in a motorcycle riding club. Luna is a fierce, blue haired women, that is sassy and bites back. Luna will literally fight for what she wants she isn't a damsel but a woman that knows what she needs and takes it. Oh boy is this bad boy spicy and it's an amazing read. I love how every book I.V. writes you see her confidence grow with her writing, and I could not be prouder of her. She is the author that takes the fantasies that we like as women and brings them to life in the most amazing and entertaining way. So, when its available put this on your TBR right along with Caught and Bound you will not be disappointed. Quite the contrary you will feel the tingles of pure delight and pleasure!

I.V. Shady is back with an ENTICING biker short story that has me wanting to: learn how to ride a motorcycle, get my license, find a group to cruise with and reenact this little number because, HELLO! (I don’t even like motorcycles, mind you, but I support this adventurous ride 🤭)

🖤Erotica
🏍️Biker FMC & MMC
🔥Instalust With a Stranger
🖤BD$M Elements (Spänkïng, Hand Necklaces)
🏍️Dirty Talk, Sømnø & She Takes What She Wants
🔥Dominance/Submission
🖤Power Exchange

Once their gazes lock and she hears his voice laced with sin, their ride takes a delicious detour.

If you enjoy a story with high heat, a bratty heroine who thrives on being bound by an insatiable lust that keeps her begging for more, and a hero who loses control with her in the way she craves, then pick this one up!

💜Monster by I.V Shady💜
~ARC review~

Our girl is out here kicking of 2026 with an absolute BANG! And what better way then with this spicy, hot and absolutely sexy short story! And the fact that it revolves around my current fixation of motorcycle club romances has just made this one even better for me! It’s like she can just read my mind and give everything you could possibly need!!

Monster is a fast paced story of desire, lust and so so much heat! I love an fmc with a bratty attitude who takes what she wants, no apologies given. Which is exactly what we’ve been given here! I love the fight for dominance as our fmc takes what she so desperately needs from the mmc.

I am honestly so excited to see what ivy comes up with next, and pray she continues to deliver these amazing short stories because they are honestly incredible 💜

[Estefanny Martinez · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another quick spicy read for the win. I was so shocked at how spicy it was, but it was just perfect. The author wasted no time in delivering exactly the kind of spice you want to read about. The power exchange between the MMC and FMC is intoxicating and addictive. Extremely loved the power she exuded and owning it, showing she’s not afraid to do so.

If you’re looking for your next spicy read something quick to get your wheels turning 😏 then I suggest you get your hands on this book once it releases, I highly recommend it.

And she did it again. Another amazing spicy short story and it did not disappoint. Loved the strong, bratty character of the FMC and mysterious, dominant character of the MMC.

Just as Bound and Caught a great quick spicy read. You’ll read it in one sitting as it has you hooked since the first page. Just loved how this story of 30 pages went.

I love love love everything that ivy comes out with. This story was short and steamy. I loved that both of them were sexy motorcyclists, and the immediate attraction they had for each other. The FMC is a brat and takes complete control, and he gives in.
This was such a fun read!
