Monster's Plaything
by CR Jane
2022
After years in an asylum, a young woman finally gets out and tries to start over. Then the monster king from her dreams appears, and she learns the creatures haunting her nights were real all along.
Series background & context
Monster & Me starts with a heroine who has spent years in an asylum, convinced that the monsters visiting her dreams might be a symptom, not a warning. When she finally agrees to treatment and tries to step into a normal life, the series flips that assumption on its head. The dreams were never just dreams, and the creatures haunting her nights are not finished with her.
That is the hook.
The first book, Monster's Plaything, builds its tension around uncertainty. Is she recovering, or is she walking straight toward the truth everyone else wants to medicate out of her? Once the answer becomes clear, the story goes full monster romance. The Monster King and his horde are real, they have a claim on her, and the bond between desire and danger is the whole point. These books are not interested in soft paranormal edges. They want sharp teeth, claws, and the kind of possessive intensity that makes the heroine's new reality feel both terrifying and strangely seductive.
The duet stays tighter and more intimate than some of Jane's bigger series. Instead of juggling a huge fantasy map, it focuses on captivity, obsession, and the heroine's shifting understanding of herself and the creatures around her. Monster's Obsession takes that pressure further, asking whether the bond is only physical or whether something much deeper, and more dangerous, is forming between them.
The tone is dark, feverish, and very much built for readers who want their romance with a supernatural edge that does not apologize for itself. Reality is slippery, the monsters are hungry, and the heroine has to decide what it means that fear and wanting are starting to look a lot alike.
If you like your fantasy romance claustrophobic, seductive, and unapologetically monstrous, this series delivers exactly that.
