From The Publisher:
Briar Rose might have a name out of a storybook, but she learned at a very young age that no prince was coming to save her. She'll have to save herself. Unfortunately, even that is an impossible task in her current situation-trapped in a terrifying marriage to a dangerous man.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, which is how she finds herself making a deal with a demon. Freedom from her husband…in return for seven years of service.
She expects the service to be backbreaking and harsh. She doesn't expect to be put on an auction block in a room full of literal monsters and sold to the highest bidder.
To Sol.
A dragon.
He might seem kinder than his fearsome looks imply, but she knows better than to trust the way he wants to take care of her, or how invested he is in her pleasure. In her experience, if something seems too good to be true, it certainly is.
Falling for Sol is out of the question. She's suffered enough, and she has no intention of staying in this realm…even if she leaves her heart behind when she returns to her normal life.

seriously just love the way katee robert writes monster porn novels like it’s fun it’s not trying too hard to be something that it just wholly is not and the writing itself is good, that being said this ones characters fell a little flat for me, still the spicy is incredible
I'd love to be the dragon's bride and thats all im gonna say about it
This series is amazing. I love the concept of a human making a deal for a set amount of time and then falling in love with the monster they are contractually bound to. Not to mention, monster dick. Hot and romantic, not to mention lots of sex. Totally worth the read. One of the few kindle unlimited books I actually purchased.
