The Centaur in My Forest by L V Lane

The Centaur in My Forest (Omega Prey, #8)

by L.V. Lane

I am far from home.

I am injured.

And I will not reach safety unless I seek the regal centaur’s aid.

He is a monster in some ways. But he is also a man.

There are rumors about centaurs, though, rumors that they expect payment in kind in exchange for a debt…

The one moon month of my life he demands does not seem so high a price.

But then I ask him what he would expect of me during that time.

“Anything,” he says. “Anything I desire.”

The Centaur in My Forest is a dark and steamy short story set in the Coveted prey universe. It contains detailed, explicit scenes.

Ever since Nora Ash wrote a short story about a Centaur and a woman...I was hooked.
So when Liv posted a picture of this new novella and joined in on the Centaur train - I knew I had to have it.
I can't explain it, there's just something about a Centaur that's....really really...interesting. ;)

This is a novella sized little story and I absolutely loved it, but then again when did L.V. Lane ever write a book I didn't like?...so far that's a never.

I really liked the centaur and the setting, the village, the community, and ofc the steamy scenes, but in this novella, the world already knows about these mythical creatures, and I love how the mystique of the Centaur is still very much alive, even though they are known, by the humans, to exist in the forest etc.

A Centaur story also always keeps me thinking...wondering and trying to picture just how certain things would work, because not everything gets explained you know? hahaha.

It's a nice little "monster" piece, and I would recommend it. It's easy to read, and has good humour, good steam and is perfect for when you just need a little pick me up, or are in a bit of a draught - OR if you just want to read a monster story! :D
