Dad Bod Monster is a 13-book monster romance series by Alana Khan, with all 13 books published in 2024. The series covers a wide range of monster heroes including Dragon, Minotaur, Ogre, Wolf Shifter, Orc, Vampire, Gargoyle, Demon, Troll, and Gorgon, all sharing the “dad bod” physical characteristic as a defining trait.
The series is a playful subversion of the typical monster romance hero, who is usually presented as massively muscular and physically intimidating. Dad Bod Monster heroes are still powerful beings, but their physical presentation leans toward the comfortable and approachable rather than the imposing. The concept has a strong comedic element alongside the romance.
At 13 books all published in 2024, the series was built for rapid consumption. Each book is a standalone romance with a different monster hero and heroine, making it easy to sample individual entries before committing to the full series.
