MOOD: adventurous, hopeful, sad, tense
TROPES: friends to lovers, grumpy/sunshine
GENRES: fantasy, monster - romance
MAIN CHARACTERS: Lawrence "LA" Holmes and Cassander "Cas" Ducky
TAROT CARD: Strength
THE GOOD: This is definitely a cozy monster romance and I enjoyed every minute of it. It does deal with some toxic people and relationships so be aware of that but it works with both the characters and the plot. If you were also disappointed when the Beast turned into Prince Adam then you'll probably like Cass too.
THE MEH: Since the plot revolves around LA getting his inner strength back, the Tarot card works but I'm finding that the further I get into the series the less the connections between the cards make sense. Maybe it's just because The Cleric of Desire card connection made so much sense to me that a lot of the others feel lackluster.
CW: emotional abuse, sexual content
