A Taste for the Peculiar: A Historical Monster Romance
A succubus hiding her true form. A faerie dripping with scandal. A lesson in seduction.
Miss Avirin Ellison can’t tell anyone what she has become — not when her position in society is already so precarious. When her mother threatens to lock her away for good, Avirin must find a way to procure a marriage proposal, and fast.
Enter Lord Pye Riften. Avirin can’t marry them, of course; the moth fae is already plagued by salacious rumors, but his rakish reputation might be just what she needs. If he can teach her how to seduce a husband, she can secure a match and make a life for herself among high society.
But as their lessons grow more heated, Avirin begins to question the rules she lives by. Lord Riften is strangely captivating, immersing her in a beautiful world where she is indulged and savored. But when Avirin’s newfound desires clash with public expectation, she’s forced to confront the deepest parts of herself.
Which would she rather lose: the life she thought she wanted, or a chance at true love?
Note: Pye uses “he” and “they” pronouns interchangeably throughout this book. This novel is a W/Nbi romance between a succubus and a death’s-head fae. It is intended only for adult audiences. Reader discretion is advised. Content advisories are listed in the book's front matter and on the author's website.

Emotional torment and sexual lessons. I wish the characters didn’t have to hit rock bottom worst possible scenario before choosing the happiness that was right in front of their faces. And I get it. I also despise change. Reading about coming out of purity culture is never enjoyable for me. And I also wish we’d had more scenes with Pye earlier. But that’s just my wishlist, not necessarily a flaw. But I really would have liked if they’d just gotten married in the first place. Perhaps my ole favorite marriage of convenience? Of course they were already half in love the week they met. But that’s never stood in the way of that trope. As always very well done, but I was distraught along side my characters for too long.

🕯️“Now, for the most important question.” They gesture for Avirin to join them. “Are these lessons meant to attract a husband or 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 husband?”🕯️

I really didn't think this book was going to emotionally wreck me in the middle there but rippp 😭
A Taste for the Peculiar was a great frkn read and the fact that Aveda Vice has written alternative realities where Avirin and Pye fall in love again and again is just 💞 I can't wait to read those stories!
I think the only thing I would have liked to have seen more of is the society / ton situation before Avirin approached Pye for 🌶️🌶️🌶️ lessons but the rest of the story was amazing.
And that cover ?!?!?!
It's honestly the main reason why I requested this arc because 🥵 zero regrets whatsoever lol

So this isn't a continuation of the story from the other two books? It's the same characters in a different setting?
Maybe I didn't get far enough but I'm not really interested in reading another story with the same characters? Disappointed

Thank you for the ARC!
When I heard this arc was available, I rushed to finally pick up the prequel "Yours, Insatiably". As this features the same couple in a different reality, it was an excellent way to get to know them.
What "A Taste for the Peculiar" does better, is that Avirin keeps more control over what she wants. A critical note I've heard about the previous book is that the plot rather happens to her, orchestrated by the ever-adventurous Pye. In this novel, Avirin is more vocal about her desires and even initiates them. I do have to say I found her frequent pleading for consummation to be slightly out of place in this setting because this setting is obsessed with purity culture.
Nevertheless, Aveda Vice is a master at sex scenes. They're passionate, they're creative, and they're a lot of fun. It's my favourite part of their writing and I hope we may be blessed with more of their work.

***ARC Review***
Going into this, I was already looking forward to reading about Pye and Avirin again, but I especially loved the idea of reading their story in a completely different setting and sub-genre. Using a historical romance framework is really interesting, because then you're dealing with an even stricter set of social rules and issues of propriety. Society becomes a much bigger obstacle and source of conflict in the story, making it that much more impactful when we see the relationship and character arcs develop throughout the book.
A Taste for the Peculiar is hot, sure (like....really hot), but there's so much heart, too. Pye truly understands Avirin and her inner turmoil, they support her as she grows into herself, and they love her for being exactly who she is. Meanwhile, Avirin's journey to self-acceptance is *so* well done, and I appreciated that it wasn't rushed. After finishing the book, I can definitively say that Pye in any iteration (historical, fantasy, whatever) is the sweetest, and as always, I just wanted to give Avirin a hug.

Review of advance copy received from Author
Aveda Vice has placed her well loved Pye and Avirin characters in a Regency setting and I am here for it!
This is an erotic historical monster romance. Pye is a death’s-head hawkmoth fae and Avirin is a succubus.
Despite being part of the Hunger series, where the same characters fall in love in different timelines, this can definitely be read as a standalone.
The historical setting really allowed Vice to play with the strict social codes of the historical romance genre.
Yes, this is erotic romance, but there was great character development as Pye and Avirin fell in love and encouraged each other’s strengths.
Beautifully written and with commentary on class, gender and looking beyond appearances, this is well worth a read.
I received an advance copy of this book at no charge. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Review of advance copy received from Author
A Taste for the Peculiar is a historical romance AU with Aveda Vice's delightful characters Pye and Averin. In this Regency inspired universe, Pye, the Death's Head Hawkmoth fae, is a libertine Lord. Averin is a secret succubus, whose mother is desperately trying to marry her off before the social season ends.
After asking Pye for their help in securing a husband, Averin finds herself slipping away secretly to all sorts of places and events what would give her mother a heart attack. And falling for the gorgeous, gender fluid Pye.
A Taste for the Peculiar is a very spicy, quick read, but it also explores the emotional distress that Averin goes through as she develops desires that are counter to her high society conditioning and the turmoil that Pye faces because they think they can't provide the life they think Averin wants.
Thank you Aveda Vice for the opportunity to advance read.

This was such a fun and steamy historical monster romance. It follows Avirin as she is out in society for a whole not and she can't let them know what she has become. Her mother is threatening to lock her away if she doesn't find a marriage proposal soon. Enter Lord Pye Riften, they are already plagued by salacious romance, so Avirin can't marry them but they can help her. Pye can teach her how to please her future husband.
I really enjoyed this one so much. I haven't read many historical romances but this one had fae and demons so that make it much more intriguing. The steamy scenes were absolutely amazing and I loved the portrayal of succubus's in this story. Definitely recommend this one if you are on the lookout for a steamy stand alone historical romance!

This starts off as a somewhat standard (complimentary) “teach me how to get a husband” story and morphs into something different, much like our characters. Don’t get me wrong, the sex lessons plot that drives the first half of the book is fun and hot and there is angst and emotion that gives it all weight, but the second half of the book takes a turn that I wasn’t expecting and I loved it. I don’t want to spoil too much but the second half doubles down on the sexiness and emotion and allows Avirin to come into her own in a really beautiful way. Highly recommend for a fresh and fantastical take on historical. Thank you to the author for the ARC!
August 28, 2026
I fell in love with Avirin and Pye all over again in this gorgeous historical romance. The language is lush and lyrical. The spice is delicious. The feelings make my heart ache in the best way. All around, a top tier experience.
This is an AU set in England times of the MC’s from Feed and Yours, Insatiably. You don’t need to read the prior books to enjoy this one, but also do yourself a favor and read them because they’re sublime.

I love when an author loves characters enough to keep putting them in different situations. Avirin and Pye are my favorite couple no matter what time they exist in. The chemistry is off the charts. But the theme of someone loving and accepting you as you are is so heartbreakingly real for us queer folks. Avirin's internal conflict is relatable, and to have someone like Pye want all of her including the parts she is terrified of, is just so good. I hope for so many AUs with Avirin and Pye; I will read them all.
September 2, 2026
A spicy kinky romp of a book! We see Avirin develop from a woman bound by polite society into a wife freed and able to have as much fun as she wants! (Consensually ofc!) there’s quite a few different kinks here so I’d say there’s some spice for everyone included in here 💗
Features;
- Nb Fae Lord x Sheltered Succubus
- Majorly shitty parents
- Sharing
- Marriage of convenience
- They call her My Lady

I don't even know where to start. Avirin and Pye absolutely wrecked me and put me back together. She's a succubus who doesn't know how to be herself, and he's a tattooed moth-fae with infinite patience who looks at her like she hung the moon.
The ending? An epilogue that left me grinning from ear to ear. They get married AGAIN because once wasn't enough. EVERYTHING

I loved “Yours, Insatiably” and getting to experience Avirin and Pye fall in love again in a new reality was just as satisfying as it was the first time around! I also haven’t finished a book so quickly in a long time, I just couldn’t put it down though.

I missed more detailed explanations; The writing is confusing at times, and there's some repeated words that could be edited out easily. However, the book and the plot are simply amazing, the story grabs you in a way I couldn't describe. I highly recommend it.

While I think Corporate Pye and Avrin are my favorite version of the pair, I found this historical romp to be very tender and sexy.

Spicy and fun with undertones of liberation and confidence.
Feed is probably my favourite read of 2026 and this was a really fun reimagining of Pye and Avi.

I am thoroughly, irrevocably in love with both Pye and Avirin. Getting to see them fall for each other in an entirely different reality was an absolute thrill. I will read about one million books with these two leads falling in love over and over while letting others hang out in their bedroom occasionally.
This is SO spicy and yet incredibly character-driven. It sees everyone who has never been accepted by "normal" society. And it does it in a way that feels genuinely rare and beautiful. If you know what it's like to be judged for who you are, this book sees you. The yearning is incredible, the world is immersive, and the romance is just top-tier.
The best book with a nonbinary lead I have ever read. I'm obsessed and I think about it almost daily.
Thank you to the amazing, incredible author for the complimentary copy. This review is voluntary and all opinions are my own.
