Description
A human, a minotaur, and the contract that binds them.
The Unsuspecting Woman
My friends surprise me with a haunted house tour to get over the ghost of my last relationship. Bring on the eerie sounds and special effects.
Except magic is real.
So is the labyrinth realm below the haunted house. And the demon who tricked me into a match with a minotaur.
Now, I’m stuck in another dimension until I can find a way out of this supernatural deal.
The Minotaur King
My labyrinth is dying.
For my kingdom to survive, I must convince my fated mate to invoke the most ancient of magics—the carnal kind.
Too bad my mate’s a human who didn’t know monsters existed until she saw me.
Will their match lead to happily ever after? Or will this beauty reject her beast?
With cow shifters, a flying demon kitten, and a dicey love of tabletop games, Matched to the Minotaur is the steamy slow burn start to the Matchmaker Monster Romance series. The books promise a happily ever after for each of the four friends who walk into a haunted house, not knowing that monsters are real. Or that they’ve been matched to the monsters inside.

Advance Praise
"If you’re looking for a fast paced portal fantasy with hunky monsters, demon kitties, and an fmc who designs board games then this is the perfect book for you.
The characters are lovable, the world building is fantastic (Leander’s realm sounds like it would be so fun to visit), and I would sell my soul to have a cute little demon kitty to follow me around.
Overall this is a fantastic read full of little twists, action, and some delicious spice." 5 Stars, GoodReads Review

This is my first time reading a book by this author. I must say that I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the rest of the series. Meg and her friends are supposed to be given a private tour of a haunted house. But instead Meg ends up in a different dimension mated to a Minotaur king. Good steamy adventure.

I’d love to play it coy and act like this was my first monster romance, but this is quickly becoming my favourite genre! I can’t get enough.
Matched to the Minotaur was such a fun read. Usually these romances are more smut than plot, but that was definitely not the case here!
I loved how the author took time to build a relationship between Meg and Leander, and the threat to the realm added an element of suspense that kept me sucked in. I couldn’t put it down!
If you’re looking for something different from your ordinary, I definitely recommend giving this one a read.
Thank you to NetGalley, Luna Joya, and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op for an advanced copy. This is my honest review.

Well that was way better then expected. Honestly I was expecting bizarre smut, and what I got was still a tad bizarre but well written characters, an exciting storyline that reads like a very long book. Sweet and sexy but not gross or raunchy. I am definitely looking forward to the rest of this outside the box exciting series.
