I read this book because it was a gargoyle monster romance, and I wanted another sample of this author's writing. I don't think I would have picked it up if I had known it had daddy Dom / baby girl stuff, as that relationship dynamic is not one I like, and therefore many of the scenes / much of the sexual content was not to my tastes. Also side note: how does Titan barely know anything about Julianna but suddenly just "know what she needs"? And it did seem like Julianna liked the sex stuff but her mentality seemed resistant to having a Dom? But WTF do I know.

I did like that both characters had their own plot lines going on, her with a goal to not only survive financially but also to pay a lawyer to get her money back from her managers, and a subplot with some family dynamics as well; and him with a goal to try to find an ancient missing magical artifact and help out his fellow gargoyles. I liked the overall setup of the secret supernatural world and the creatures that were called Strange. I also found it entertaining that Titan had this mystical Pull toward the Keystone, though how that plays out over the course of the book I did not think was surprising. I did enjoy how Titan was supportive and reassuring through Julianna's encounters and attempts at resolution with family issues (aside from an assault). I saw a forum post that said that 'he wants to help carry the weight of her traumas' which I think is very accurate.

Overall this book was very mid for me, it does have a lot of sexual content and a lot of that was not to my liking, and I thought that the emotional development was pretty poor; and the actual overall plot especially the ending is quite blurry and not memorable for me. Reading some of the reviews, I saw someone point out that in their perspective Julianna liked the dick and liked the money but also thought that there was not enough emotional development to build up an actual romantic relationship. I also saw another review that pointed out that Jules was extremely die hard mad and reckless because of how Titan solved her financial problems with her manager and how she had wanted to do it herself, this was unrealistic and annoying. I think another review put it a bit more clearly by saying that Titan respected her bedroom boundaries but not outside of the bedroom, and her response to his actions was childish in the extreme.
