This was the most irritating, ridiculous book that I've  read in quite a while. Now I realized that I was taking a chance after reading the excerpt, but I figured that with 232 pages going for it then it must be a cohesive, defined story. For me it wasn't...it was a bunch of abominable/bigfoot type creatures who behaved more like a bunch of neutered males than the 'beasts' they were supposed to be. They were able to talk  (so there was no communication divide to add any dimension to the story), they had 'human male' equipment (oh joy!), and they knew how to get on the knee for marriage, build a home with outdoor facilities (crude but working) and surprisingly(not),they all wanted to mate with Mina, whose name they aptly mispronounced as Meanie.Initially after she was kidnapped her snappish comebacks were understandable, but after she settled down, the smart-aleck, biting, sassy, snarky comments got irritating, overbearing and downright mean. Also, Meanie er Mina was a hypocrite because she cheated on her mate conveniently forgetting that her human fiancé had done it to her, but alas, the author found a way to make it a non-issue. She transformed the formerly possessive 'my Meanie' 'me your Veck', abominable mate to be suddenly open and agreeable to her having two other mates. So despite the fact that Meanie er Mina called them names(abusive), was selfish, bossy and not very nice to them for the most part, through the might of her pen, the author made Meanie the shiznit!The ménage was the same here as I've read in countless of other books - an utterly selfish affair with basically one person benefitting the most and calling the shots...same here. Note to self: avoid ménage story like the plague!!Maybe this might be someone else's cup of tea, but not mine. I wish that I had not wasted my time reading it!!
