About this ebook
'Heart wrenching and unputdownable' STEPHANIE GARBER
'A fantastic, immersive read' NAOMI NOVIK
'Phenomenal' ADALYN GRACE
The sequel to the unmissable and hugely romantic young adult fantasy Only a Monster, set in London, will take Joan deeper into the monster world, where treacherous secrets and danger await.
Not every fight is won by heroes. Sometimes, you need a monster.
Joan has achieved the impossible. She reset the timeline, saved her family - and destroyed the hero.
But success has come at a terrible cost. She alone remembers what happened. Aaron, her hard-won friend - and maybe more-- is now her enemy. And Nick, the boy she loved, doesn't even know her name.
Then an attack forces Joan back into the monster world as a fugitive, where she discovers a secret that threatens everyone she loves. Now Joan must re-gather her allies to face down a deadly enemy, and save the timeline itself . . .

What is going to happen next?!?!?! Honestly it is a phenomenal Fantasy read, go read it and start your obsession of Monster Families, Timelines and the irresistible Aaron Oliver!' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'I was glued to the pages, so much so that I consumed both the audiobook and the text in just one week!' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'I didn't think that anything could top Only a Monster but apparently I was wrong as this book is even better!' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'Like I said I absolutely loved this novel and I couldn't find any fault with it. It gave me mixed emotions, an adventure and plenty of twists and turns along the way. This series will be one of my favourites to read. I loved it immensely' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'I'm left with no words for this book except that I loved it even more than the first. This was the perfect follow up book: The stakes are higher, the angst intense, the moral questions remain and we learn just enough secrets to keep us wondering and craving the third book' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
