This was hands down the best reverse harem I’ve read in a long time!!! This was perfection. Literally have no words like…WHAT DID I JUST READ. It delivered beyond anything I could have imagined. Everything you want in a RH and probably the best group scene I’ve read possibly…EVER!!
We have a Greek Mythology retelling combined with Monsters and Mafia - What more could you ask for? The mafia crews in this world answer to the 3 Fates. One of the heads of the mafia "branches" is Cerberus...the leaders are Damon, Minos, and Aaecus - Yes the 3 headed guard dog of Hades. Hades' daughter cursed Damon which led them to be combined in their monster form. Ashley is sent to steal a valuable artwork from them but gets caught, kidnapped and forced to stay with them for a week. Immediately Minos and Aaecus want her - they are drawn to her and Damon holds back.
This novella is literally perfection. One of the spiciest books I've read this year. The plot is very straightforward but honestly this focused more on the characters and ALL the spice - and I did not complain one minute.
Received an ARC and this is my honest fückïng review!

This felt a little ridiculous, and too rushed. It’s only 180 pages so of course it’s not going to be as in depth as a full length book, but between the slightly confusing set up and the fact that there are 3 guys in the harem… I felt like I didn’t KNOW any of them, even the heroine.
Also, the shapeshifting sex… what? I couldn’t even visualize.

5/5 stars
4.5/5 spice
To be perfectly honest, this BLEW ME AWAY. I gasped multiple times while reading this. GASPED! Do you know what it takes at this point to cause such a reaction? Multiple knots and a good old-fashioned triple dong. Clio and Opal, I could kiss you for this. But I won't make it weird, so maybe an air kiss?
Ashley is hired to steal a piece of art from three mafia monsters who make up the beastly form of Cerberus when shifted. They catch her in the act, and instead of killing her, decide to make her sign a contract to be their sex slave for the next week. There's a bit of fated mates sorcery at work, however, and Ashley soon finds herself mated (via claiming bite) to all three men.
The spice in this book is next fucking level. Not only do each of the men have knots, but they all also have different amounts of knots!! Imagine a dick with three knots. I sure did. It's like a choose-your-own knotventure and I am HERE for it. And when they join together as Cerberus when shifted, their form has THREE DICKS. I'm just saying.
Ashley's monster harem also has a good deal of MM--Damon and Minos have an existing mate bond, and Aaecus joins in on that dynamic once they're all mated to Ashley. Shit is hot. There are many group activities.
I loved this a lot, and I highly recommend for all my fellow monster lovers.

This was solidly a two star bad book until the final sex scene that was (bestiality?!) and soooo bad and weird and cringey that I literally could not take it. I thought they’d have one cock? Three heads, one body. Not this weirdness. They had absolutely zero reasons for a relationship other than the mating bond. The plot?! Killing Hades daughter and no consequences? I can not. I can not. Makes no goddamn sense. Thanks. I hate it.

Non-existent chemistry between our quartet made the smut scenes even more meh. I'm kinda disappointed because this setting had so much potential ☹

3.5 Monster Smut Stars!
Wow! I’m still not a fan of MMF but if anyone could change my mind it would be Opal and Clio.
Damon, Aaecus and Minos are the three men that individually are monsters but merged together make Cerberus. When Ashley is sent by Typhon to steal a piece of art from them to erase her debts, well let’s just say she fails. But these men want to f*ck her more than they want to kill her so they make her a deal. Spend seven days with them at their mercy and they’ll set her free and under their protection.
But their initial attraction to each other is deeper than they expected and there’s something bigger at play. Will they be able to let each other go at the end of seven days? Will they be able to protect each other?
This short story had all the kinks (hello Cerberus dick…still trying to work that one out in my head) and all the smut. It was well written and had a unique plot with a refreshing take on Greek mythology. I enjoyed it a lot. Just MMF action still isn’t my thing.
I liked Ashley and her fierceness. I liked Aaecus the most with Minos close behind. Damon took longer to like because he was an asshole and I don’t know if I was convinced with his grovel. But together they were a force to be reckoned with. Overall, a good read.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
3/5 ⭐️s
I’m not going to lie; this wasn’t my favorite of Clio’s books. I haven’t read any of Opal’s writing before, so it’s hard to judge off of one co-authored book.
I was excited for the mashup of mythology and mafia, and I know to expect mostly spice with a sprinkle of plot with Clio’s writing. This was definitely that, but usually there’s more chemistry in the relationships established. The spice here felt mostly flat for me. Add to that a relatively minimum plot that really threw me for a loop, and you’ve got a less than wonderful read.
Here’s hoping book two picks up a bit!

"Everything about you reminds me that a beast can worship a goddess."
Wow! This book was so HOT! Thieves and Monsters is my first Clio Evans book, and I need to read her Creature Cafe now! This is my first book from Clio and Opal, but it will not be my last. I devoured this book in one sitting; I could not put it down.
Ashley is an art thief who gets caught by 3 HOT monsters, Damon, Minos, and Aaecus, so her punishment is she spends seven days of sin with them.
This book was so HOT; The spice is top-notch!! It will melt your panties off! All three monsters have knots, but each has a different amount!!
My imagination was running WILD, picturing all the sex scenes!!
This was my third monster romance, and I am LOVING them! I can't wait to read the next book in this series, and I plan to devour the creature cafe books!!

What happens when two fantastic writers team up with Greek mythology, monsters, and an art thief? You get a steamy five-star read that you will can’t put down! You get a book that you will immediately regret finishing because you will want so much more.
Damon, Aaecus, and Minos are the three monsters/men that make up the fierce and feared Cerberus. Ashley has been sent on a mission to steal a piece of art from these three men/monsters, and if she succeeds, all her debts to the men’s enemy and her debt holder, Typhon, will be erased. But what happens when she is caught stealing the RUMmmm (yes, I got and loved the reference) painting.
The three monsters decide to make her theirs for seven days, no holds barred, all debts erased. But could there be something bigger at play here?
This book is filled with monster loving goodness. So many different kinks are explored, and there is some seriously hot MM action too. This is a story where the sexy times have no bounds… okay they do, ropes, blindfolds, cages, and so much more… it warmed my little deviant heart to see the passion leap off the pages as Ashley and her monsters discovered they were so much more to each other.
Also, this book is chock full of consent without it being in your face. Yes, Ashley makes a deal with monsters, but at no time do you feel she has given up consent. That was sexy.
This fusion of monsters, mafia, and Greek mythology was incredible, and I'm honestly sad the book is over. I'm looking forward to reading more from these two extremely talented authors. Do I recommend it? Without a doubt... a thousand times yes! Will I continue reading? Obviously... YES, I was totally captivated by the storyline, the characters, and the new world created for us by Ms. Fairchild and Ms. Evans!

Idk how to write this review buuuuut...
📚 𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲: Monster erotica, mafia romance
📖 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: Ashley is a thief caught stealing art from the three men who form Cerberus, a three-headed hellhound. She agrees to one week of sin in exchange for them letting her go free.
🌟 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: If you like Clio's Creature Cafe Series, you'll like this story. Just lower your expectations a little bit.
The book did have sweet moments. I liked how they all fell for her immediately and how even Damon, who took some convincing, wooed her in some way.
I think the issue I am having that's causing me not to rave over this is the complete lack of plot and character development. This was deffffinitely erotica, which I signed up for knowingly. But I didn't feel like Ashley was a well-rounded enough character for me at all. It's all spice, which some may find great but I need a little plot with my weird
🔮 𝗙𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗲: Um to be fair I can't picture how she had... ya know... the intercourse... with the men while they were Cerberus. But otherwise it was ok.
𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: 3.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐

4.5 stars.
First off. Let me just say that this book was definitely hot as hell.
The sex, the dirty talk, the little bits and pieces of kinkyness, it was all so good.
But.
I will admit that with the warning at the beginning I did expect it to have way more kink than it did.
I mean, I still enjoyed it, and I’m not all that disappointed, I just had higher expectations of the roughness than what occurred.
Also.
This book was much shorter than I was expecting. Not a bad thing in my opinion.
This way we got to the good stuff much faster. And the plot was kept short and resolved easily to make more room for the sexy times.
There’s also a ‘but’ with this though.
I didn’t love the way Minos marked her. It was so abrupt, and it hurt the man he was already mated to. It was resolved, and everyone got over it but it made me cringe and had the ‘ick’ creeping in with his thoughtlessness.
Luckily things kept moving at a fast pace so I got over it quickly.
I’ll definitely be reading the next book.
Hopefully there’s some improvements made and the sex stays hot.

OMG.
The way I love this book. It’s the perfect monster reverse harem romance. Heavy on the spice!! It’s as if Minos was the foreplay, Aaecus was the act and all three together were the big O.
I can’t wait to see what the Three Fates Mafia set up next!

Cerberus is 3 sexy as hell men!
OMG yall, if you told me a year ago that I would be reading a Reverse Harem where the three guys turn into a giant dog, I would have laughed at you! BUT...
TBH IT WORKS!!!!! They are the different heads of Cerberus and when a little thief comes to steal from them, they choose to offer her the deal of a lifetime!! Spend one week with them and in return have all her debts paid off so that she can finally get away from the Three Fates Mafia. (Or so they all thought!)
This was steamy yall! but I loved that there was an overall plot to it as well! it wasn't just 3 guys and a girl screwing in every way imaginable!! haha well.... maybe it was! But I loved it so much! and I know that if you like RH, monster romance, mafia romance, enemies to lovers, and exploring new things, I think you will like it too!!
This book feat. the tropes listed above, MMMF, MMM, MM, MF, knots (x6), breeding kink, D/s dynamic, knife play, breath play and so much more
Triggers do include: graphic violence, mentions of suicide, kidnapping, & un-aliving people
I received an ARC for my honest review.

Greek mythology? Check. Reverse Harem? Check. Monsters? Check. K1nk? Check. This book delivers everything and I love it.
Ashley, the fmc, is cute and strong and fun. The monsters are hooot. There’s a particular scene at the living room that made me feel things (there are others, but this was my favorite).
I really enjoyed this book, and im really excited to read the following books in this series.

Did someone say monster RH? Oh gods, is this spicy. Instalove, bonds, knots, multiple monster peen, BDSM with several mentions of safety and safe words... Do I really need to say more?
This a novella, so expect a fast burn with lots of spice and vague backstories. They make it work and I’m not mad about it. I am, however, in need of the next book PLEASE. A quick, smutty read was just what the fates ordered today.

Tiktokta bir iki defa gördükten sonra yerli ve milli bookstagramlarımızdan birinde görünce dedim tamam, thats the call. Okudun ettin de ne oldu derseniz çok dah bişey olmadı. Kitabın vadettiği şey belli, haremdeki monsterlar bu defa çok da fasfarklı karakterler değiller gibi geldi bana. Onun dışında kurulan dünya güzel, ayrıntılar iyiydi. Dümdüz bir spice okuyormuşum hissi vermedi o yüzden. 3.25 vermek istiyorum sanırım bu kitaba ya o yüzden 3.25’ten 3 ✌️

I didn’t adore this but I also didn’t hate it, zero chemistry, it just happened. No build up between the characters let alone the scenes that automatically happened like?
TW/CW: fully shifted sex, choking, size differences, monster love, bondage, anal play, breath play, knife play, breeding kink, Dom/sub dynamics, degradation, murder, kidnapping, and graphic violence

The spice was really hot, which is what I came here for so the job has been done but the pacing was too fast for my liking and there were certain aspects that I didn’t like in the spice but it’s only a me-thing so I won’t rate it based on that
Also, I can’t for the life of me understand how the last scene was possible, I keep trying to do visual plans in my head but I can’t picture it

Clio Evans is shaping up to be one of my most read author's of 2022.
That being said, I don't always agree with her smut dynamics and this book went overboard, over the ocean, past Poseidon and into the Mariana Trench in chapter 21 and that made it loose a star. And it is a duet effort with Opal Fairchild, so the blame doesn't lay on her only, but I feel like they had written the story, got to that point and were like, what can we put into the book to really shock our monster smut/fucking loving readers? Let's put chapter 21!
What with the monster body dynamics that my brain was like bassssss, that is enough; dicks sized like a human calf and then homegirl is immortal now after all, so let's stretch her like a bladder and she can take all 3 dicks at the same time, while they are joined as Cerebrus and my favourite I-fucking-hate-this-trope dicks so big, her stomach bulges as she takes them. Why would any female author find this appealing?
Did you feel that eye roll? I've eye rolled so hard I can tell all of you what you will all be eating for breakfast next leap year day.
The other star was for the unnecessary drama with Damon. She was basically a toy he was willing to ignore, until Typhon wanted her back then all of a sudden, I piss on you you're mine! Oh and the numerous uses of baby girl (a term I now abhor coz of 365 dni) and little thief (it was cute at the start but towards the end was so overused).
That being said, the book got me through the day and apart from the two main issues, it was actually a good story. My favourite character had to be Aecaus (even Clotho/the fates couldn't get his name right) because from the jump he treated Ashley like I-wanna-fuck-murder-you, but in a good way that I found sweetly cute.

Why would any female author find this appealing?
I nodded, licking my lips. I'd been in some situations before where I had to be flexible, and this was one of them.
Did you feel that eye roll? I've eye rolled so hard I can tell all of you what you will all be eating for breakfast next leap year day.
The other star was for the unnecessary drama with Damon. She was basically a toy he was willing to ignore, until Typhon wanted her back then all of a sudden, I piss on you you're mine! Oh and the numerous uses of baby girl (a term I now abhor coz of 365 dni) and little thief (it was cute at the start but towards the end was so overused).
That being said, the book got me through the day and apart from the two main issues, it was actually a good story. My favourite character had to be Aecaus (even Clotho/the fates couldn't get his name right) because from the jump he treated Ashley like I-wanna-fuck-murder-you, but in a good way that I found sweetly cute.

Read this if you like:
✦ MMMF Romance
✦ Monster Romance
✦ Knotting & Breeding
✦ Greek Mythology
✦ Reverse Harems
✦ Cerberus / Hell Hounds
┈ MY THOUGHTS ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
- If Clio Evan writes it, I'm going read it.
- I've never read a monster romance where the MMC's merge together to become Cerberus "the hound of Hades, a multi-headed dog that guards the gates of the Underworld" so 10/10 for creativity.
- The spice was oh so spicy 🌶🌶🌶
- Not a hole lot of depth but I am A.O.K. with that. Regardless of how deep the relationship was or the character depth, this was a fun read, especially with all the different components of this book: monsters, mafia, and demigods/gods.

Baby!!!!!! Gimme book 2 NOW!!!
Yeah I'm obsessed with this.... Book slump who? Don't know her!!!!
I officially need 3 monsters there is to force me into a contract for a week where they get to do all the filthy things they want to.....
This had everything I needed
I am absolutely feral for the fates and How they are portrayed in this fantastical Greek retailing if you will. I love how these 2 magnificent writers and writers made it feel like the stories we know in love but put their own fantastic spin on fantastic spin on it. The Greeks were very sexual but I think even they would blush at the things these two have written...
The boys have a very interesting past and I love it so much. I love how they have come together to having a dynamic previously established.
Triggers-
Slavery (week contract of servitude)
Dubcon
Murder
The spicy things
Size difference
⚔️
Monster
Safewords domination/submission
Bandage
Breeding without the 👶
Spanking
Pain
Biting
Forced mating
Primal (tiny bit)
Cages
Praise

Before I start, I received a free advance copy of this book from the author, this is my voluntary review.
I really liked this book, a quick read and great smut with a bit of exciting plot. It’s funny and gripping from the beginning and I read it in one go. It is a monster romance so there is monster equipment and if you like your hero’s to look entirely human this may not be for you.
Damon, Minos and Aaecus are really sweet and at the same time dangerous and dark MMC. Our heroine Ashley is strong and smart and even though she is not new to the monster world, she is new to monster sex and handels it well and with curiosity. Thank god she is not a whiny and fearful FMC.
There were some times where I could not really picture how the sex worked with all four of them but this may be a problem of my imagination or lack thereof.
I liked the world building and look forward to other books in this series.

These pass few months I've been on a monster romance spree and Clio & Opal has become my go to for great monster romance books that has all the kinky smut a monster lover's heart could ever want so to for them to write a book together? fuck, it's a wet dream come true (I'm kidding..... er kinda).
I loved the relationship between the MC and her love interests. The chemistry and tension between them had me SALIVATING. I mean it's a RH, greek mythology inspired, mafia monster romance of course it was fucking good. Also, the spice in this? holy hell, it blew my panties right off.
This trope is kinda hard to write especially with it being mythology inspired (IMO) so kudos to the authors for doing their research and putting their all into this tp give us such an amazing book, I absolutely loved it and had a great time reading, I hope you guys do too!
P.S I'm so excited for book 2 *screams*
P.P.S I want Aaecus to shred me to pieces w his claws 🧎🏻♀️
enjoy my loves!

Ashley is an art thief. She steals from monsters for her boss Typhon. She is really good but she finally does get caught by Cerberus. Damon, Minos, and Aaecus are the three heads of Cerberus, the former guard dog to the Underworld. They all have human forms but when they take their true form, they are joined as one monster.
They all make Ashley a deal. She is to follow their orders for one week and then she will be free to leave and live her life without being indebted to Typhon. She agrees because she has no other choice. The week does not turn out the way she thought. How will her relationships grow with each monster? Will Typhon come to claim his property? Is there another enemy lurking?
This book was spicy!! I am down for the monster smut 😈
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/ 5

ARC REVIEW
Aaaahhhhhh this was soooooo good!!!!! I devoured it and would have finished it in one sitting if exhaustion hadn’t gotten in the way (thank you adult responsibilities!) This book is so hot, and so well written! Love the shifting dynamics between the characters and their personal preferences in the bedroom (or any room really 😆)! And the knots!!!! All the knots!!!! Yes, plural… and not only on different individuals… Yes, you absolutely read that correctly! I can’t wait to see what else Opal and Clio have in store for us in this series and what the Three Fates Mafia are up to now!!!! So yes, I absolutely recommend this book!!!!

A GREAT start to this series. Monster MAFIA RH? YESSSSS
It's pretty fast pace so you can zoom right through these.
You have:
✅Monster
✅Mafia
✅Reverse Harem/Poly with MM content
✅Enemies to Lovers
✅Forced Proximity/Captivity
✅Mates/mating
✅Breeding
✅Praise/Degradation
✅Size difference/Fully shifted S3x
& I'm probably miss a bunch more. Please check content warnings before starting (listed right before the prologue)
This is going to be an on-going series that will feature a different pairing but will have an overarching theme through the books so I would suggest to keep reading them in order.
