    This was a stupid, short, underdeveloped story with insta-lust, no emotional development and the fated mates trope. There was no page time for character building nor really any depth to their relationship. There are mild dominance vibes/ his "animalistic" nature is the excuse for what he says to her, but this language did not do it for me. Overall pretty forgettable and meh for me. After reading some reviews: he is not really a 'river god' but more of a protective dinosaur shifter?? Some other viewers felt like it gave them the ick and I can understand that. Overall this was a quick read, some people liked that there was tail involvement and some people did not.

    Anthropologists Like It Wet is a short and steamy insta-love story that delivers exactly what it promises—sweet and spicy moments with just enough intrigue to keep things interesting. While the world-building is minimal, the chemistry between the characters makes up for it a bit. It’s a quick, enjoyable read, though it didn’t fully captivate me.

    I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
