Stone Daddy’s Good Girl

by Wynter Raven, Celeste King

She builds gardens.
I build graves.

She shouldn’t be on my mountain.
She shouldn’t be in my cottage.
She sure as hell shouldn’t be sleeping three feet from my fire like I won’t take her in the night.

But I don’t just want to scare her.
I want to own her.

She plants flowers—I mark territory.
She spills tea—I crave blood.
She calls me a monster while curling up in the warmth I stole from the earth just to keep her alive.

She thinks I’m here to protect the land.
She doesn’t know she’s the land now.

And I’m the beast who guards it.

Read on for monster daddies, cottage captivity, forced proximity in the cold, and a massive, molten MMC who worships his fragile little gardener. HEA Guaranteed!

DNF. Honestly,not what I expected from the title. I really found ivy insufferable in her insistence to be gargoyle fodder just because she didn't want protection. The head mean gargoyle had real reason to not like or trust her,so painting him as the villain was shoddy. Overall,there was no chemistry,and only the story of her rebellion. Vandor liked her and wanted to protect her. she was still despising him at 60% of the book,and that's too far in to turn it around without being a rush job that falls flat. And if I had to read " I'm a BOTANIST!" one more time I was going to scream. Weird world where there are guns and cars,magic and medieval herbal healers,with past lore referenced,but not elaborated,but that was also an issue because EVERY book Celeste king touches,regardless of who(m) she is writing with harkens back to the dark elves/protheka or whatever. I just want to read a separate world that has nothing to do with them,even vaguely. The book was Just a jumbled muddle of world building and storytelling. I have read Celeste king books before and something about them just does not make me enjoy them,and this book did not become the exception. In addition,the adult scenes are literally almost identical to the point where I was wondering if it was a writing continuity error on the author's part. Like how does one forget the basically just wrote the same sceneonly 30 pages prior? My thoughts only. Feel free to read and forrm your own. But don't say you weren't warned

This enjoyable story is about Vandor a gargoyle and Ivy. Unbound from being spelled to stone by Purna witches, Vandor rises to find his brothers destroyed when need for food overwhelms him. Vandor flies over his kingdom and notices humans have invaded his land and vows to take it back. Ivy is out hunting Blue Caps when the ground shakes and the night creatures go quiet. She goes where the stone Sentinel stands and finds its gone with rubble around. Ivy runs home but Vandor follows. Vandor forces himself into her home as she defends herself and then he tells Ivy he claims it. He allows Ivy to live but will Vandor let the other humans live? What occurs afterward is an engaging story with likable characters in this copy I'd received and volunteer to read and review.

The Keeper

He came, he destroyed, yet he brought her meat even though she couldn't eat it. This was a dark romance. It took me a chapter or two to understand what was happening. Eventually, she became the strong one by being the Keeper of the land and him as her consort. He was stone and she was human, but working together they got their HEA.

Cute quick read. I found some of the verbiage a little bit off, but all and all it was sweet read.
