The heroine: Mickey - she fell for Tyler, the first guy that showed her some attention, he seemed like a true gentleman, a terrific guy, but since then he had turned truly evil. He threatened to kill her siblings if she tried to escape him again and he calls her ‘Stupid Girl’. He often keeps her chained in a dark closet when he is unhappy with her, without even a pot to piss in. He has hooks all over the house for when he moves her from the closet, he can keep her chained up. When she finally escapes him, her brother and sister, Milo and Minnie, run away with her and they all get jobs at Demi’s Diner.

The Hero: Rhett - he owned Royals Garage. It was his dream, and he had owned it for ten years. He did very well in the beginning, but the economy went downhill, and it had a devastating effect on his business. Now all he had were past due bills and he knew it was time to give up on his dream. He has drained all of his accounts trying to keep the business afloat and has nothing to fall back on. When a man comes into the garage and offers him $100,000.00 to be in a drug trial. Though there is no promise it would work or that he would even survive. When Rhett turns the man down, he is drugged and kidnapped.

The Story: Like Creed Blackstone in Honeysuckles, book 1 of this series, Rhett is turned into a monster that has DNA from a bunch of different creatures, some paranormal, some not. He is gargoyle, crocodile, vampire, jellyfish and ghost. Rhett escapes from Shallow Cove Institute separately from Creed, though they end up in the same town, not far from the institute. One day, Rhett was coming out of a lake in his crocodile form when he smelled her, Mickey had just purchased the fixer upper house that overlooked the lake.

I enjoyed the first book in this series, and I liked this one even more. There were some things Rhett did that I didn’t think needed to be included, but whatever (he is part vampire, who loves his mates' blood, and he loves going down on her. I will leave it at that). However, I did like the story, I really love the whole genetically engineered paranormal trope, and I loved that Rhett had some ghost in him, that was an aspect that we don’t see enough in paranormal romance. I wasn’t too fond of his frank n’ beans which were basically the jellyfish part of him. Just a bit too out there for my tastes. I didn’t like Creed’s private parts in the first book either, they were derived from Kraken DNA. But it did add some fun to the book.
