What happens when a legendary monster gets burned out from terrorizing teenagers? Monster Slayer Matchmaking takes us into the world of Darla Drake, the infamous Duchess of Death, who's taking a much-needed break from her monster duties at Camp Clear Creek.
When we first meet Darla, she's in the depths of an existential crisis, spending her days reading stolen romance novels and conversing with her mother's decapitated (yet still very opinionated) head. Her comfortable sabbatical is rudely interrupted by Jarko Murkvale, an arrogant new monster who moves in on her territory while she's been off-duty. Rather than surrendering her stomping grounds, Darla challenges him to a series of monster competitions to prove who truly deserves the claim to Clear Creek.
What follows is a delightful enemies-to-potential-partners journey as these two monsters discover there might be more to life than terrorizing campers. The book creates a fascinating world where monsters coexist with modern society, complete with monster territory assignments, tracking apps, and even social gatherings. Brody Rossiter expertly balances humor with heart, crafting characters that, despite their monstrous nature, experience very human struggles with purpose, loneliness, and finding connection.
This cozy monster rom-com offers a refreshing take on paranormal romance with its closed-door approach and focus on emotional growth rather than explicit content. It's perfect for readers who enjoy their paranormal stories with a generous dose of humor, witty banter, and the comforting message that even monsters deserve their happily ever after.
Ready to discover if monsters who slay together truly stay together? Dive into this charming tale that proves love can bloom in even the most unlikely—and terrifying—circumstances.
