The Cuddle Clause

By: Roxie Ray

Narrated by: Shelley Reece, Theo Sinclair

Living with a werewolf is… complicated.

Maggie James is thirty-one, freshly dumped, and emotionally scorched.
Losing her relationship also cost her the apartment and the business she built with her ex. Now she’s broke, unmoored, and answering a roommate ad from a total stranger.

A stranger who turns out to be a neurodivergent werewolf with a detailed lease agreement… and a legally binding cuddle clause.

Roman Velasquez likes quiet, structure, and his Good Plate.
He’s used to living alone—until pack politics force his hand. To avoid being mated off for supernatural convenience, Roman needs to convince his Alpha that he’s already claimed. He panics, blurts out a lie, and suddenly he and Maggie are fake-mated, cuddling after full moons, and trying very hard not to catch feelings.

It’s just a roommate agreement. Just magical paperwork. Just a fake relationship to stop a supernatural power grab.

They both know the rules.
Don’t touch the plate.
Respect the schedule.
No falling in love.

Too bad they’re already breaking all of them.

For fans of:

• fake dating with fangs
• grumpy/sunshine but genderflipped
• structured touch, cozy spice, and emotional support cuddles
• neurodivergent romance that doesn’t center trauma
• one (1) sacred plate

Cute story.

The story was pretty cute, but the spend a lot of time waning about each other, specially the girl. It could have been a bit more chaotic without being too moody.specialty the girl. She just annoying 😆but … still a quick and easy read. And funny. They were a great couple. I did like them together.

Book was fantastic, audio even better!

I devoured this in print, I absolutely adored hearing it in audio. The narrators did a fantastic job!

Legal ease

This is a cute book. It takes into the problems that sensitive people have. Most people don’t understand the quirks that sensitive people have.

Seemed to be missing plot points

Story was okay. Just with all the amped up ads about it I thought there was more to it
