Pretty solid, as usual. I liked some of their other works better, but it was enjoyable.

Not sure why exactly, but this one didn't pull me in. I didn't get attached to the characters. I didn't like the instant attraction and felt like the relationship was rushed, especially for someone with trauma like the heroine.

Despite being such a short book this starts super slow.

Honestly, I was entirely ambivalent about Cruce until he had already killed Tyler (the abusive ex). So basically I didn’t like the male lead, the monster of the monster fucker book, until about the 90% mark of the book.

 

Cruce understood possessiveness. This forest was his, and he wanted her to be his, too. But possession was no guarantee of satisfaction. If Sophie wasn't happy... She'd be surviving, but not alive. (110)

The only thing I knew about this book when I grabbed it was that it's a monster fucker romance. For most of the book, Cruce's form is a non-corporal shadow monster, which I found super fun and unique. I was a bit confused about Cruce once he took corporal form though. This is super inventive, but somehow still a bit boring. I think this read just wasn't for me, and the triggers in this are brutal.

His Darkest Craving is an excellent short novella by Tiffany Roberts which has the features I love about this author: mystery, straightforward but detailed narrative, an unusual world and lovable characters that show a lot of chemistry in every scene. Despite this, I find it short and the pacing too fast, but you have to take into account that it is a short novella.
In conclusion, recommended if you fancy a short read full of steamy scenes with a hint of kink.

This book is a solid 4 stars. Dark, mysterious, with expertly written sensual scenes describing the growing intimacy and sexual tension between the two main characters. There is something about Tiffany Roberts’ books that make it impossible to put them down.

The book contains sexual scenes between a human and a fantasy creature (half-man/half-beast). Also, there are scenes of sexual violence and the main heroine is a victim of marital abuse. Please do not read if any of these is a trigger for you.
