Love at Labyrinth Solutions #1
Meetings with the Minotaur
Big horns. Big secrets. Even bigger… chemistry.
Jamie
My five-year plan did not include impersonating a high-level executive to impress the big boss, but here we are. One day I’m slinging mail, the next I’m in a meeting trying not to drool over the CEO’s thighs like a disaster in khakis.
He thinks I’m a brilliant strategist. The truth? I’m just trying to keep my 'professional' smile in place while staring at his horns. But the more time we spend together in late-night work sessions, the more I realize the heat between us isn’t just my imagination. Can I help win the company’s biggest account and the Minotaur of my dreams, or will my little lie get me sent back to the basement?
Magnus
Discipline is my salvation. As CEO of Labyrinth Solutions, I maintain control. In the boardroom, in my life, and over the beast that lives inside my suit. Then Jamie Torres walks into my world.
He’s a new junior strategist; sharp, ambitious, and so distractingly handsome it makes my head spin. His scent is peppermint and temptation, and his shy glances at my horns make my possessive instincts roar to life. But keeping my hands off him might be the one merger I’m not powerful enough to negotiate.
Meetings with the Minotaur is the spicy and funny first book in the Love at Labyrinth Solutions monster romance series. If you like fated mates, significant size differences, and workplace shenanigans, you’re in for a treat. Begin your next adventure with Meetings with the Minotaur now.

🪣Easy, quick, spicy time with a very peculiar bucket of lube… 🫣
⚡ Instant Chemistry
Jamie and Magnus are immediately attracted to each other, and lust fills the room and electrifies the air.
I liked seeing that chemistry in action, and both characters are genuine and nice.
🌶️ Spice Check
The spice definitely emphasises size differences and does have its quirks… so be prepared.
You will hear about:
-breeding
-little men
-fat cocks
You’ve been warned...
🌍 Worldbuilding…
I appreciate that the world does sound quite elaborate, with several creatures making an appearance.
But if you are not familiar with those creatures, you don’t get much background on most.
This isn’t bad, but there was definitely an imbalance between:
-how many creatures there are
-vs how many humans
and how much we actually know about each.
🤨 The “He’s Different” exasperating Narrative
Now, I am not a fan of the “he is different because he is the only one who isn’t with me for my money and power” narrative. 🙃
Especially when:
a) it is clear both MCs have a kink for each other’s species (even if author does not spell it out like that)
b) while Jamie was not with Magnus for his influence, he did see him exactly like everyone else did…
and at no point did he see deeper than that before lust flew, cum squirted, and late-night snacks came in different forms… with sides of deep conversations. 🍽️
👀 Word Choice Curiosity
I am kinda intrigued (and slightly stuck on this)...
Why does the author keep using the word “monsters”?
When:
-it’s closely associated with fear and power
-and the whole point of Labyrinth Solutions and Crownpoint City is to unlearn that fear and build collaboration
Like… we had options. Many options….
Alors…
Anyway, these are unserious things (even when serious).
The book is still:
-fun
-full of laugh-out-loud moments
-quick and easy to go through
So if you’re into it… bring your own bucket, I guess. 🪣
Thank you Grey’s Promo for the ARC.

як же мені подобається читати про стосунки людини та якогось іншого створіння🤌🏻
правда, картину портить оця "таємниця", яку джеймі не може сказати, і в результаті причинив магнусу біль, хоча ж дізнався, що в минулому у магнуса були не дуже стосунки і знову причинити біль якось😐
ну і просте "відро сперми" тут грає новими барвами, все ж таки у нас тут ✨мінотавр✨ 🤣

Meetings with the Minotaur was a fun, quick read! I picked it up after eyeing MA Wardell's releases and anticipating CTRL+ALT+ORC's impending release and I'm super glad I snuck this one into my reading schedule!
While I could absolutely tell this was a first-time monster romance for MA Wardell, I don't think that detracted from the story. I like the characters and DANG was it steamy! If you like monster x human romance and/or boss x employee office romance, this could be a fun time for you!

Review of advance copy received from Author
Fantastic monster romance debut from M.A. Wardell that has me begging for more in this world!!
I absolutely loved that we had humans and non-humans collaborating in a corporate workspace and city. I was all very normal and not like the non-humans were truly “monsters”. I love when we see “monsters” incorporated in a non-fantasy setting as a monster lover, given I would give my left arm for a minotaur husband any day of the week 😉
I love a good workplace romance, but throw in a lonely Minotaur boss, an up-and-coming human trying to make the most of his temporary position, and sizzling chemistry, and I am a goner! I absolutely loved how Jamie never looked at Magnus like a means to an end, or even someone to help get him a step up in his career; he looked at him like the wonderful creature he was. And the way that Magnus, this hulking bossman, was so reverent with Jamie from the very beginning, was incredibly touching and endeared him to me. He saw Jamie as not just a cute nerd (which, he was in the best ways!), but he saw him as a truly capable and smart man with many talents. Seriously, their actions with one another and chemistry kept me reading this book until my eyes were watering from needing sleep.
Last, but CERTAINLY NOT least, was how spicy the book was. Like Magnus having no refractory period, once the spice started it did not stop! Now, it takes a lot to make this monster lover blush, but once THE BUCKET came out to play, I was blushing like this was my first foray into smut. You’re just going to have to read it if you want the juicy details on that one 😉
Overall, a cute and spicy start to a new monster series that I will definitely be continuing! I can’t wait for the next book!
Thank you to M.A. Wardell and Grey’s Promotions for the eARC! The thoughts and opinions expressed above are honest and my own.
4.5 stars!

i am pretty sure that i’ve already overshared that i’m an insomniac. you might be wondering why would it be so important that i have to start this review with this fact.
well, the first night i started reading this, i also took a sleeping pill. a very strong sleeping pill. fast forward to the following afternoon and i open my kindle mid-sex scene, no idea how we got there. actually, i had very vague memories of the book itself.
what can i say, that sleeping pill works wonders.
HOWEVER. i catch up and read a few chapters. i enjoy them? i would’ve enjoyed them more if i remembered the rest of the book. i’m just glad i was sober and awake to read the minotaur filling a damn bucket with cum.
anyway. it’s night again and i take another sleeping pill. i finish reading the book.
you guys, i have no idea if this book is good or bad.
i don’t remember ANYTHING (except for the bucket of come, which sounds like a good thing)
i’m rating this 4 stars because i had a very good sleep and why not.

WARNING: THIS REVIEW IS SPICY
My first official monster romance was overflowing with buckets of c*m. A minotaur CEO with pressed suits and an impossibly large cock...that ALSO dabbles in the art of origami? Please sir, I’m just a hole. This novella is for the size queens, the monster lovers, and fans of Zootopia. Wardell is definitely having a lot of fun with this one, and I read it in one sitting because it's a filthy good time. I was admittedly curious about dipping my toes in monster smut, and dare I say...this turned me on? But to be clear, I'm not into bestiality. Don't get it twisted.
Jamie Torres and his slutty little glasses go from the mailroom to administrative assistant to posing as a junior executive and taking Magnus' mighty minotaur loads during lunch breaks. Using a bowl of your own c*m as lube is crazy behavior, but he's a CEO and an award winning ass eater, so he can do whatever he wants. This is a quick and raunchy corporate monster romance with an age gap and heartfelt connection. Be it creature or human, we all worry if we're enough.
The story itself is a tad underbaked, but if you’ve come for the spice, you’re fine. Thank you so much to M.A. Wardell for the physical ARC in exchange for an honest review! As always, I adore your brand of M/M romance. And who doesn't love a novella? I'm so sat for the next book in the series. I love the cover art, but my goodness is it so misleading. LOL.

Оціночка 3,5*
Така собі невеличка новелка, яка знайомить нас з міжвидовими інтимними та романтичними стосунками між босом та підлеглим підлеглого 🤗 Але в усе це примішується крапелька брехні, яка розростається і стане причиною невеличкої драми з довірою..
Я не дуже люблю троп (чи як це назвати) з брехнею, яка тягнеться і тягнеться, а один з героїв ніяк не може її розкрити по своїм власним егоїстичним причинам.. Там брехня менше, ніж про неї говорять, а драми, наче, хтось вмер 😆🤣
💦💦💦🪣 - оце, канєш, цікаво 😆🤭 Нас з перших сторінок попереджують, неочікуваності немає, але, бляха, все рівно це так дивно 😆 наповненість, маска на лице, на все тіло, смазка - така варіантивність, вибирай за ситуацією і за бажанням 🤣
Мінотаврчик наш - дорослий дядько, який не знає кохання, владний, але ввічливий та врівноважений - усвідомлює, що, можливо таки йому не вистачає врешті своєї пари та кохання 🫶❤️ Він великий всююююююди, величезний.. приблизно як середньостатистичне передпліччя 😄
Джеймі - людинка, дорослий хлопець, який так і не реалізувався досі, але з великими амбіціями, перспективами, симпатією до боса та ненавмисною здатністю до неочікуваної для самого себе брехні 🤭
Блискавка, розряд, почуття ⚡Швидке захоплення та закоханість з цікавими та не зовсім стандартними спайсі сценами ❤️🔥Але хотілося б ще чогось оригінального, бо стільки ж можливої різноманітності у відносинах монстра-людинки 🫶

This was fun! I loveeeee a monster romance and CEO x employee 😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨 something about it just hits different
Magnus (MMC) and Jamie (MMC) work together but Jamie’s keeping a secret that may bite him in the ass later 👀. The characters immediately warm to each other and it was sweet seeing them slowly open up (lol) and be vulnerable with each other despite the circumstances.
Scale:

⭐️⭐️ - shit, but whatever
⭐️⭐️⭐️ - meh, could've been better
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - lit 👅

Fluffy monster smut with enough spice to singe your eyebrows.
This ticks the boxes if you just want a short spicy time. Magnus and Jamie were sweet together but their connection felt surface level. The instant attraction did most of the heavy lifting.
I know a monster romance requires a certain level of suspended belief, which I can usually handle. Minotaur CEO of a Fortune 500 company? I’m on board. What I couldn’t get behind is that Jamie, a mail room assistant, was able to wiggle his way into a project that is vital for the company by pretending to be a junior strategist. It made no sense that no one was like, who is this guy? Ridiculous. Then at the end after lying and banging his boss he immediately gets a promotion! I don’t want to be that person but someone call HR!
Cute and spicy but the ridiculous plot threw me. 3 stars.

So this was fun! I'd been curious about it since seeing the author's fb posts, so I finally tried it. I was again just checking it out, skim & fast reading, but then chapters in I realised I'm invested & always halfway, so I read it to completion in 3hrs. It's a monster rom-com in workplace, boss/employee & I enjoyed the carefree environment & sexy, cuteness!
Jamie works in the mailroom of the company, he wants to be a junior strategist (JS). Being asked to be an assistant can be his moment but when the CEO thinks he's a new JS, it's his chance to show his skills & that he does well. J's sweet, observant, passionate but he's got some self-esteem issues but he blooms so well at end ❤️.
Magnus is the CEO, he's a minotaur so he's big in all aspects 🤭. M prides himself on his control, especially of the horny beast within. But the meetings with J breaks M's walls! M's caring, looks strict (is, for important stuff) but is a teddy bear.
From the 1st alone moment, they're so obviously hooked lol. M wanted to keep professional distance, but duh that didn't work out 😂. I like that he communicated about that. J was so in haha, his lil crush 🤭. The sexy & sweet times are great. Of course, J's lie was gonna bite & it made me a bit teary-eyed at end, emotionally high but also satisfying!
I like how they see eachother as partners, equals. Especially as we got to see ass play from both 😍. Plus, they vers'ed in bonus, yay! Author didn't leave us hanging, yayyyy 😁. The office environment is OTT yet realistic in a fun & interesting way. I'll be looking forward to more in this series! If thered vampires & such, I wonder if there'll be magic!

Okayyyy, this was WAY too cute and way too hot at the same time 😈🥵
It gave me a little bit of Tentacles and Triathlons + Kings and Monsters vibes, but like… the BEST parts of both. 😏
Magnus and Jamie were honestly such sweethearts 🥹❤️ I loved how soft and adorable they were together, while the whole Minotaur situation was basically there to make everything approximately 1000x hotter. 😈🔥
And Mags… well…
MINOTAUR.
That’s the review. 😂
The whole monster aspect was SO much fun and definitely delivered exactly the kind of chaos I was hoping for. 🪣😏💦
It was sweet, funny, ridiculously hot, and just an all-around easy, enjoyable read. Sometimes you don’t need a complicated plot or emotional devastation—you just need two adorable idiots, a Minotaur, and enough spice to set the damn book on fire. 😂🔥
This one absolutely worked for me.
Read it, had fun, got attacked by the spice, would happily do it again. 😌❤️🔥
⭐️ 5/5
🌶️ 5/5
It gave me a little bit of Tentacles and Triathlons + Kings and Monsters vibes, but like… the BEST parts of both. 😏
Magnus and Jamie were honestly such sweethearts 🥹❤️ I loved how soft and adorable they were together, while the whole Minotaur situation was basically there to make everything approximately 1000x hotter. 😈🔥
And Mags… well…
MINOTAUR.

I beg your pardon? I BEG YOUR PARDON? What a sweet, swoony, smutty romp! Can’t wait to read more from this world 🐂😈💦💦💦💦🍑

Ok, that was a delightful smutty romp 😂. Meetings with the Minotaur was everything you’d expect from @mawardellauthor writing monster romance - it’s cute and romantic and the spice is WILD 😮💨. Jamie is ambitious in many different ways 😂 and I loved how sweet Magnus is - we love a gentle giant. Their chemistry is obvious from the very beginning, and I honestly don’t know how they didn’t get in more trouble with BR (being relations) because they are NOT SUBTLE. Minotaurs are….. messy, and if you see the dedication page for this book, you’ll know exactly what you’re getting into.
I’m SO EXCITED for Matt’s monster era y’all, this is going to be FUN. 😎😎

I've heard great things about this author and decided I'd give this book a go.
I really, REALLY wish I hadn't.
The dirty talk was insanely cringe - Feeling brave, I let my fingers go further, teasing his hole just the slightest bit, and he whimpers. Magnus Trainor fucking whimpers. “Oh, do you like that? Your little man playing with your hairy hole?”
Blegh.
But I'm not even sure how they fell in love honestly, they had like, two meetings and then just fucked the rest of the book. They both thought of mates but how did they know they were fated? Shit made no sense.

This was a cute and very spicy novella that I had a lot of fun reading. The writing was funny and easy to read, I quickly fell in love with Jamie and Magnus.
I just wish it had been longer, I know it's a novella but I wish it had a few more chapters to round it off nicer.
I will be reading more from this series in the near future!

My first taste of monster romance and it’s full of the heart and humour you’d usually find in an M.A Wardell novel. The spice however, had been turned up to 11.
A fun story for people who like Monster Romance, and I appreciate the world he is creating.
Spice level (personal rating:)

The premise had me. A fun office romp between a Minotaur and a human. Was the writing good? No. Was there a well developed plot? Also no. But the spice was spicy and plentiful. Also the speed in which they said “I love you” gave me the ick.

I absolutely loved Meetings with the Minotaur! Once I picked it up, I couldn’t put it down. This monster romance was quick but so, so good! The power dynamic, size difference, and buckets of c** made for such a hot story. And even though Jamie and Magnus were filthy, they had their sweet moments as well.
M.A. Wardell’s writing was fantastic. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

I regret falling for the social media propaganda.
I was confused and regretful by the end.
