Another entry in the Creepin U universe where monsters and humans share a college campus and find more in common than expected. A second chance to connect with the boy that was his friend for a short time leads dryad shifter Kovi to befriend new student Tanner.
From the Dryad, Try Again blurb:
You’re formally admitted to Creelin University, known locally as “Creepin U.” The only things wilder than the monsters prowling around campus are the spicy male-male love stories unfolding between classes. “Dryad, Try Again” is book two, starring a hard-working human, and the tree spirit shifter who never stopped caring about him. Each book is a standalone M/M spicy, spooky romance, but we hope you enroll in them all.
I didn’t think I’d ever see my first crush―a human―again after humiliating myself as a sapling of a kid. But now we’ve both bloomed, and we’re going to college together. What’s a tree spirit to do?
I never fit in anywhere until I got to CU. Now, I have friends, I help the staff, and I’m acing my studies. No serious relationships for this dryad, not after the disaster of my childhood.
But like a willow in the spring, my past has returned. I knew they were letting in humans at CU, but what are the odds that I would befriend my childhood first kiss?
Tanner has more than a few emotional scars from his youth, not least of which was how we met. He claims he’s fine, but I instilled in him a deep-seeded fear of the trees I love. I make it my mission to teach him all about forestry from a first-hand perspective, as well as life living with monsters.
Between the shared laughs and stolen glances, it’s entirely possible the sprouts of attraction between us were never uprooted. Spending time with him could be the second chance I never knew I needed. But now that we’re not saplings anymore, can I convince him I’ve turned over a new leaf?
I’ve had my branches tangled over Tanner for years. With two hearts on the line, it’s time for this dryad to try to be the perfect monster for this human.
Dryad, Try Again is a second chance MM monster romance romantic comedy. It features first kisses, sunset picnics, and yes, freaky tree spice scenes. At Creepin U, a HEA is always guaranteed.
SNik's review:
Part of a multi-author series (Creepin U), but can be read as a standalone. Paranormal. Childhood friends. Second chance. Found family. Slow burn. Dual POV.
Being one of the humans accepted to Creelin U is a new start for Tanner, and working and studying will keep him busy but he can’t help his interest in the dryad shifter Kovi. Although Kovi and Tanner soon find that they knew each other as kids, and it caused some trauma for Tanner that makes it seem impossible to overcome no matter their mutual attraction, they both are determined to try for something more.
Kovi is set to befriend Tanner and help him study, but time spent together where they really connect is too sweet and hopeful for them to ignore. Both Kovi and Tanner are likable characters that are hard working and caring, they find a good set of supportive secondary characters (both human and monster), and they try their hardest to listen to their hearts. A cute story within a fun monster/human universe.
Dryad, Try Again is currently available as an e-book and paperback and can be read as part of your Kindle Unlimited Subscription
