Summary

International award-winning author Nichole Rose and USA Today Bestselling author Fern Fraser have teamed up to take you on a steamy-sweet adventure to a town where nothing is what it seems。

DRAVEN
I've spent my life in darkness， hidden away from the world。
It's where monsters belong after all， isn't it？
But my curvy maid， Dahlia， brings more than just order to my world。
She brings me back to life and makes me want more。
My beastly appearance doesn't scare her。 Nothing does。
Except， perhaps， the father she's running from。
But I won't give her up for any man。 This beauty is all mine。

DAHLIA
I spent my life fighting my strict father and his outdated opinions about right and wrong。
Accepting a housekeeping job in another state is a way of proving I can stand on my own two feet。
The moment we meet， Draven’s tail sweeps me off them and straight into his arms。
I've never met anyone with more heart and humanity than the sexy， blue-haired giant。
In my father's eyes， Draven is a monster， not a man， but I'm determined to prove him wrong。
This Bride is claiming her Beast。

If you enjoy sassy women， over-the-top men （with a little something extra to offer）， and steamy-sweet romance， you'll love this short monster romance！

Really adorable monster book！ Very unique take。 Draven has spent his whole life hiding believing he’d be ridiculed joining the outside world。 Dahlia comes to work for him and he is intrigued。 Dahlia pushes Draven to show himself to her and their romance blossoms once Draven realizes Dahlia loves him for who he is。 Really sweet story！

Michele ，

Loved， loved this retooled version of Beauty and the Beast。 Enjoyed the characters of Dahlia and Draven as each have fallen mutually in love， but still have secrets that they are keeping to themselves。 Great characterization as Draven is very poetic in his description of his Beauty and all that he wishes to keep her safe and loved。I am voluntarily leaving a review for this book that I received free。

Pretty cute read; the hero had his dna altered thru some freak science mistake and developed horns， a tail， blue hair and can’t see in the day but only at night。 He was pretty sweet and reclusive， and he stalks the heroine thru the house when she is hired to be his housekeeper。 The heroine left home and her emotionally abusive father， and is starting over in a new town that has more than its share of monsters。 But when she looks at the hero， she doesn’t see a monster， she sees a lonely man who i Pretty cute read; the hero had his dna altered thru some freak science mistake and developed horns， a tail， blue hair and can’t see in the day but only at night。 He was pretty sweet and reclusive， and he stalks the heroine thru the house when she is hired to be his housekeeper。 The heroine left home and her emotionally abusive father， and is starting over in a new town that has more than its share of monsters。 But when she looks at the hero， she doesn’t see a monster， she sees a lonely man who is devoted and obsessed with her， a man she loves and is equally devoted and obsessed with。 There’s no messing around with these two， as soon as they realize the other has feelings for each other， they’re crashing together。 Minor complaint: there was some continuity issues in the epilogues。 First epilogue is 4 years out and they have two kids， a boy and a girl。 Next epilogue is 5 years out and the daughter is said to be 18Months old and the son is 3。 Now I’m no math genius， but something seems off thereSafe。 Both virgins， no others， no cheating or sharing。 No abuse。 HEA with epilogues where someone didn’t bother to do a final proofread。 。。。more

Beauty and her BeastLoving way she put him first regardless of her father。 I think she was lonely herself but brave for taking the risk for man/beast。 Good story。。

I just didn't care much for it。 The characters didn't really connect with me， and there were multiple things in the story I just didn't like。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 I just didn't care much for it。 The characters didn't really connect with me， and there were multiple things in the story I just didn't like。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

DELIGHTFUL！ I loved that these two authors teamed up！ This book rates 5+ stars！ The Hero and heroine were great， but I especially loved Dahlia's character。 She's funny， beautiful， and quirky too。 Despite being verbally beaten down by her father， she has a big heart。 It's precisely why Draven falls in love with her。 She's unfazed by his appearance and quickly breaks down his defenses。 The writing and their dialogue was quite engaging and it simply made me smile。 I was sad but also energized at th DELIGHTFUL！ I loved that these two authors teamed up！ This book rates 5+ stars！ The Hero and heroine were great， but I especially loved Dahlia's character。 She's funny， beautiful， and quirky too。 Despite being verbally beaten down by her father， she has a big heart。 It's precisely why Draven falls in love with her。 She's unfazed by his appearance and quickly breaks down his defenses。 The writing and their dialogue was quite engaging and it simply made me smile。 I was sad but also energized at the story's end。 A good book will do that to you！ I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

A delight！ If you ever wanted the Beast from Beauty and the Beast to escape turning back into the prince， this book is for you。 I am one who did so I fell in love with Draven immediately。 He is such a sweetheart！ Dahlia is his perfect match and they truly are meant to be。 I loved his mom having a hand in bringing them together， adorable！

I've always been a sucker for a good retelling of Beauty and the Beast and this one is exceptional。 Nichole and Fern blended their writing styles together beautifully。 I loved Dahlia's teasing side as she brought fun and laughter into Draven's world。 Of course I loved Draven's protective nature。 My favorite scene is when they cuddle up under a tree when they are out for a midnight stroll。 So sweet！！ 🤗 This is a lite happy read with very low angst and a wonderful hea。I am leaving my honest review I've always been a sucker for a good retelling of Beauty and the Beast and this one is exceptional。 Nichole and Fern blended their writing styles together beautifully。 I loved Dahlia's teasing side as she brought fun and laughter into Draven's world。 Of course I loved Draven's protective nature。 My favorite scene is when they cuddle up under a tree when they are out for a midnight stroll。 So sweet！！ 🤗 This is a lite happy read with very low angst and a wonderful hea。I am leaving my honest review for a complimentary copy of this book via the author。 。。。more

Draven & Dahlia Screaming Woods is my new favorite place to be！ Absolutely loved getting to know Draven and Dahlia and Draven’s delightfully devious mom。 Great story。 Sweet and steamy。

Two of my favourite authors working together to write this great story。 Dahlia takes a job inter state to escape her strict father。 Her boss Draven has hired her to be his maid。 Her father only sees a monster， she on the other hand sees someone with more heart and humanity than most humans。 This is such a sweet story， with amazing characters and a great plot。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。

This is another great story for this multi author collection and I loved it！ Dahlia is on a quest to break away from her awful father and Draven's momma hired her to be his maid， as he is a true loner。 This well written story is told in dual POV and is quite the sweet and sexy tale。 Both main characters slowly came to love each other and made allowances to make sure both thrived。 A little drama is included just to keep things hopping and I really enjoyed the reading ride。 Good fun！ This is another great story for this multi author collection and I loved it！ Dahlia is on a quest to break away from her awful father and Draven's momma hired her to be his maid， as he is a true loner。 This well written story is told in dual POV and is quite the sweet and sexy tale。 Both main characters slowly came to love each other and made allowances to make sure both thrived。 A little drama is included just to keep things hopping and I really enjoyed the reading ride。 Good fun！ 。。。more

I have often been intrigued with the different way to tell the story of Beauty and the Beast， and this one goes down a perfect example with a twist。Draven was once a boy that was turned into the Beast he is today。 He is still Draven， the boy his mother loves。 Draven however has learned to hide from the world because although hos town is covered with other monsters， there are still humans who see the ugly rather than the beautiful essence of the town and the people。 Enters Dahlia。。。Dahlia is runn I have often been intrigued with the different way to tell the story of Beauty and the Beast， and this one goes down a perfect example with a twist。Draven was once a boy that was turned into the Beast he is today。 He is still Draven， the boy his mother loves。 Draven however has learned to hide from the world because although hos town is covered with other monsters， there are still humans who see the ugly rather than the beautiful essence of the town and the people。 Enters Dahlia。。。Dahlia is running， and running hard from a life that is not of her choosing and a father that is cruel， selfish and a leech。 Dahlia falls for the Draven and finds her place in his world， life and heart with a little help from his wonderful mother， Gretchen。 Although this part of series， the story can be read as a standalone and is one of the best retellings I have read so far。。。even the Beast is really no the beast - I think that tile should go to the father。。it not what you look like that makes you a beast but how you act and treat others。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

I really enjoyed this book。 I completely fell in love with the world of this series and am slowly trying to read them all。 Good world building。 I really liked the characters。 Dahlia is a sassy thing， and Draven is a grouchy teddy bear。 A lot of Beauty and the Beast vibes。 A fun read。 4 stars。

pretty goodDraven is so far the youngest one in this series that was changed。 Dahlia was hired by Draven’s mother as a housekeeper。 Draven hid in the shadows afraid that Dahlia would only see him as a monster。 But she didn’t。 Great love story。 A little like beauty and the beast。 It was a little dry in some areas but pretty good。

Barbara ，

Part of Monster Between the Sheets series， a story if you have been reading this series is not to be missed。 Draven is one of the people in the town that has been changed， he is one caring man especially for his maid Dahlia， and his Mother。 There story has drama， a nasty father， a woman who can see past his appearance， and romance。 I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。
