Description
A quirky rom-com about the monstrous consequences of falling in love! The perfect Summerween read.
My Ex and Other Monsters explores the story of Indie Reynolds, who has given up on romance and perfected the art of being cool, calm and uninterested. When a casual family curse means that everyone you fall in love with turns into a literal monster, shutting down that part of your brain becomes kind of a necessity.
That’s why Indie ensures that any relationship she has stays positively un-serious. And it’s why she can’t risk falling for her new colleague Max, even if he does have endless charm and a perfect jawline.
But when sparks start flying between them, Indie realises that feelings don’t always do what they’re told. Can she find a way to break her curse and finally let someone get close to her, or is her love life doomed forever?
