Title: Final Debt 

Author: Pepper Winters

Genre: Dark Erotic Romance

Type: Last book 6 of 6 on the Indebted Series

POV: First Person – Dual (shifting)

“Fate had decided we were matched. And we’d fulfilled that prophecy by falling head over fucking heels.” Jethro

Final Debt is the last installment of this captivating series. I wasn’t sure what to except going into this but what I read defiantly exceeded my expectation. This book, just WOW was absolutely amazing packed with suspense, action, and love yes sweet love. All the secrets finally came out and so many things happened I was a complete anxious mess. My anxiety levels were high up in the sky with all the events and boy did we get an unforgettable finale?! Oh YES we do. It was completely worth the wait and heart break we endured during the series. I am so sad this series has come to an ending but also because there was one part on this book that completely utterly broke me for life. I don’t know that it had to happen but it made this book so much memorable defiantly something I would never forget and cry all my life over it.

This book picks up right where book five ended; the beginning was so depressing I desperately wanted, needed salvation a miracle or something. Nila Weaver was taken from London by Cut and Daniel to Africa; she was alone and had no hope in surviving this madness. However; she wasn’t giving up this fight so easily. No matter how much torture she endured she continue to fight because love and hope was much stronger than death. Nila was so much stronger on this book; she was a total badass I adore her for it. She had grown so much from the beginning and made this book an epic story with her amazing survivor actions. 

“I was alive. I was dead. I was reborn.” Nila

Jethro Hawk was under a time bomb; he thought he had time to save his love ones. He had a plan but time was always against him. He was desperate trying to save the love of his life and his brother and sister from his evil family. The extend of what he went through to rescue Nila and saved his family gutted me. My man got hurt, injured, flew countries to try to save her and at omg the anxieties were so high I was biting my nails the entire time. My heart was in my throat I was a mess. 

“I would breathe, but I would die….My heart would split open…I knew what hell was.” Jethro

He finally finds Nila and they had amazing heated moments I was trying to enjoy it but at the same time I was freaking out like watching a scary movie where the monster is coming right behind them and if they don’t run fast enough they will die?! Yeah I felt like that the entire time. It was a total roller coaster ride. However; in the midst of it all they managed to keep their hopes and love alive.

“I kissed her. The instant my lips touched hers, it was if a nuclear explosion mushroomed inside her.” Jethro

You do not want to miss out on this EPIC finale. The author manages to suck you into this book from beginning to end. This book is an endless roller coaster ride that will have you on the edge of your seat cheering for your favorite team Nila and Jethro. So many things happened I cannot tell you enough how much I loved this final book. It was the best; it had everything we have been wanting from the beginning of the series and you will not be disappointing the way the author managed to put this finally together. Final Debt was a complete stunning ending and it will forever stay in my heart, it sealed the ending of the Debt Inheritance series and it was the best. 

“We each had our craters and defects from war. But we would wear them with pride.” Nila

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Type: Book 1 of 2 of The Mercenaries Series

This book WOW! This freaking book is kickass, full of steamy sex, suspense, action and once you start you are in for an amazing adventure that you do not want to miss out. Best Laid Plans takes place in North Africa where “Marcelle De Sant aka Marc” a well known hit man has only one month left to finish his assignment and he is out.

“One of the worst cities in the world, and here was an auburn goddess with rosy skin and a lavender scent.” Marc

This book was packed with action full of suspense that had me biting my nails one minute and the other well it was hot.

After fighting all the time of course she was stubborn and independent and he was well he was badass Marc Raw and strong and unpredictable. Their sexual chemistry was defiantly undeniable it was so HOT especially after a good fight they would go wild for each other. Marc and Lily had sex in the car, in the shower basically everywhere and it was amazingly HOT. They had to change strategies so both can get out of this mess alive.

“He grabbed her by the back of her head and pulled her in for a kiss.” Marc

“She grabbed the straps of his vest and yanked him even closer, sliding her tongue into his mouth before he could make that move first.” Lily

The events heading to the ending left me speechless, I was so angry at the choices Marc made and I am dying to get my hands on book two right away.

My Rating 4.5***Love me some Painter Stars

Title: Reaper's Fall

Author: Joanna Wylde

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Type: Standalone book 5 of Reapers MC series
POV: First Person – Dual

“She was mine. She’s always been mine. I’d be damned if I’d share her with another man.” Painter

Ok I’ve always liked painter since the beginning of the series. Yes he annoyed me for not claiming Em but I am so glad now that he didn’t because Painter and Mel are just amazing together. They were just perfect for each other. 




This story is about Levi aka “Painter” Brooks. He went to jail for a while; He had met Mel right before he was sent to jail. They would write to each other and I was so happy that Mel did that because my poor Painter really deserved to be happy for once. However; he was hard headed like all the MC man you have met on this series. They are just too chicken to settle down for whatever reason afraid that they are just never good enough for their woman. The thing is they didn’t realize once the girls fall hard for them nothing really matters they are blinded by their love and relationship they have for them. 

“His gaze met mine, burning through me, and I swear-the world started spinning.” Mel

We met Melanie aka “Mel” Tucker on the last book she was Jessica’s best friend, she was the one that accidentally caused the house fire for London at least that’s what she always believe that it was her fault. Ever since Painter helped her on the last book she had a thing for him. Mel was young and her father was a drunk, her mother had abandoned her and she needed to feel safe and loved. London and Reese took her in but she knew she needed to get her own life together. Painter encouraged her and helped her with some cash and let her have his vehicle while he was in jail. Her letters gave him hope and kept him going. He was falling for this girl fast and he didn’t even know it. 

“Never stopped thinking about her, though. Not once. She’d become my anchor.” Painter

This book takes place in different time periods when they first met, while he was in jail, the time she waited for him. And then well she gets knocked up when he gets out and a whole new life Mel was not prepared to deal with but she managed even without Painter’s support because he gets put back to jail for another two years right after he found out about her baby. Time was not fun for these two but they both learned to be parents without having an intimate relationship once Painter was released from jail. The chemistry between these two was so hot omg I loved it so much. I understood why she wouldn’t forgive him. He realized a bit too late he fucked up big time but he never gave up on them; I loved painter so much on this book. He was ugh badass. Mel did end up being some badass herself at the end and I really loved that they both were able to understand each other at the end. Their daughter was just adorable I loved that baby girl was able to make their relationship better in some way. 



Painter did his best to be there as a father for baby Izzy and he tried to be good for both of them. He was very talented as a painter his work was selling like hot bread he was making good “honest” money for Mel and his daughter. He let Mel do what she wanted but he had one rule “no dating bikers” it was stupid but I get it if she didn’t want to be with him because he was a member of the MC Reapers so why would she date another biker? I mean I get it. Well he finally couldn’t help it and finally claimed her. Lots of events happened that caused her to realize she would never be able to love anyone else, he had ruined her for anyone else and finally gave in. I love the way Painter was with Mel, I love how sweet he could be and how freaking HARD he could also be. He was just awesome in my eyes. Yes he fucked up but he grew up and realized what was important and I loved him for that. 



I was so happy to see some of the Reapers showed up on this book. Reese what can I say I love that man haha. This book was really good, I enjoyed it from the beginning. I enjoyed how all the MC and the old ladies always had Painter and Mel’s back they are really true family and I loved them for that. I will be honest it took me a while to remember all the Reapers and the old ladies because it has been a while since I read the rest of the series but it was worth it. By the time I finished I remembered all of them and I cannot wait for the next book which I hope is Gage because damn that teaser was freaking HOTTT.

My Rating 4.5***Soul Mate Stars

Title:Stolen

Author:S.M. Yair-Levy
Genre:Paranormal/Fantasy
Type:Book 1 of The Collectors Series
POV:First Person - Dual 

“The world was dark again without her light…This wasn’t her fairytale, her happy ending.” Dylan

Stolen is the story of a twenty-one year old Dylan Prescott aka “Temperance Elementa”. After the death of her parents she felt alone even with her grandmother’s love and her best friend Aria; she tried to distance herself from everyone. She was bound to never open up and give her heart to anyone because loosing love ones hurt so much. Dylan went to college and met Tristian; a hot, mysterious and intimidating boy that affected her in ways she couldn’t comprehend. When their teacher puts them together as partners for the rest of the semester she didn’t know what to do with that. Dylan was stubborn and wasn’t putting up with cocky Tristan.

Tristian Steward aka “Tristian Effingo”; had been watching Dylan for two years now but when he was pared with her on class; being near her gave him the feels he had never had for anyone before. He wasn’t human and neither was her but she didn’t know that yet. He had an assignment and it was to find her and her “real parents” location. When Dylan found out that she wasn’t a human the information was so hard for her to take in but if it wasn’t for the vampires and stuff she actually witnessed she would have not believed Tristan. Everyone was after Dylan; she was the most powerful Demon there was and she didn’t even know it.

“How is it the one person you shouldn’t have is the one person you can’t imagine living without?” Tristian

During the time Dylan and Tristian spent together they started having feelings for each other. The more time they spent together the stronger the feelings. Dylan found herself in trouble and was able to use some of her powers but it almost killed her. Tristan helped her thru it and tried to stay with her until his work was done. He knew they couldn’t be together once his job was completed he would disappear to his world and never see her again. However; the pulled between these two was so strong it was hard not to feel it. I loved the chemistry that Dylan and Tristian had; it was epic they both absolutely fell for each other.

“He wanted to brand her, to stamp his mark into her flesh for the entire world to see she was his.” Tristian

They were both Soul extracting demons, they use the souls of people to give them more power. Dylan wasn’t happy per say with this revelation she was afraid of this. She even stopped Tristian when she saw him stealing the soul of a police officer. She couldn’t bare the idea of feeding off of people. However; she was tricked and given to an evil Demon that wanted to use her powers which she didn’t yet have or knew how to use them. The entire book was a roller coaster ride, I was a nervous wrecked. Time was precious on this book and I just couldn’t stop reading. I was on the edge of my seat I wanted Tristian to save Dylan so bad, I wanted Dylan to be strong and get her powers; however she was new to this world of Demons, Werewolf, Vampires and was not strong enough as everyone kept saying she was. This book was full of action and suspense I just couldn’t get enough I wanted answers, I loved all the characters Tristian was my favorite, Dylan, her friend Aria, even Asher he was such a fun Demon. I can’t wait to read the next book on this series. The ending well….all I know is that I will cry myself to sleep tonight because I was completely not expecting all the events at the ending of this book. It literally got me by surprised and gutted me. Like laterally I need therapy and I really don’t know what my feelings are doing right now but I might need a lot of booze to survive the waiting of book two. To all my paranormal/fantasy readers you need to read this.

“He was hers as much as she was his. Nothing could keep them apart now. She owned him and he’d follow her to the gates of Hell if need be.” Tristian

Author: Alessandra Torre

Genre: Erotic Thriller

Type: Standalone Book 1 of Deanna Madden Series

POV: Shifting

“Hope is dangerous. Hope can be the loose thread that pulls apart your sanity.” Deanna

The Girl in 6E is a suspenseful and captivating book that gets you hooked from the beginning. Dexter Morgan lovers you will fall in love with this series. Deanna Madden aka Jessica B. Reilly; a twenty-one year old spends her daily living as a “Cam Girl”. She has survived for over three years without any human contact because she believed she was a danger to society. After a horrible tragic that left her basically homeless; with no mother, father or brother and sister she isolated herself inside her apartment 6E. In order to survived she had to find a job that pays well and required never leaving her home so “Webcamming” worked perfect for her. Pretty fast she learned it was a great way to save her from the urges of killing and blood and a fast way to make a lot of money.



Camming became her life, “her normal”. She would order all her supplies and food online so she never had to step away from her apartment. A very handsome delivery boy named Jeremy who worked for the UPS Delivery Company found Deanna intriguing and mysterious; he wanted to know the mystery of the girl that hide behind the door of the apartment on 6E.

“Her voice was strong but had a sweet tone and enough sass that his mind begged for a look at the woman connected to it.” Jeremy

I wanted to know more about Jeremy and Deanna and if their “none” existing relationship will become more. Jeremy’s curiosity for Deanna was intriguing and I wanted to know more.

“He disorients my world, captures my spirit, and heals a little of my soul, all in the course of seconds.” Deanna

One of her first customers was Mike. He was a great character; his fun relationship with her was great to watch. She paid him to be her personal hacker. He made sure she was protected from other hackers and always kept her updated from danger of stalkers. His layback personality was adorable he is defiantly a likeable character on this book. Deanna’s doctor Derek was very mysterious and I also wanted to know more about his character.



Deanna learned pretty quickly how to identify killers like her by their actions. One client in particular had some fetish and she didn’t like it one bit. She started was so smart I loved her character and she found out very quickly this guys fantasies were going to become real if she didn’t do anything about it. She risked her sanity and left her apartment for the first time in three years. However; all the risks and what she did made me love her more. Overall, I loved this book because Deanna was able to use her instincts; she used her killing desired to save a person and that was amazing. This book was something I was totally not expecting. There was so much anxiety building up, so much suspense; I didn’t know what to do with myself. I thought I was going out of my mind I was scared to death of what was going to happened but the author was able to make this book super intense, intriguing, thrilling and fascinating. I just couldn’t get enough of Deanna and her story. Her past was so sad I couldn’t help loving her character and will power to be a good person.

My Rating 5***Fascinating Stars

Title: 3 Truths And A Lie

Author: Lisa Gardner

Genre:Mystery Crime

Type:Short Stories

POV:First Person – Female

3 Truths and A Lie is truly a very short story but I couldn’t help being captivated and wanting to know the mystery. What mystery you asked? Well D.D. Warren is one of my favorite female detectives she is a total badass. If you’ve read some of Lisa Gardner’s books you will know why. You will fall in love with D.D’s character. This book was no different it was a really great short story that I couldn’t stop reading.



Detective D.D. Warren takes an assignment she wasn’t thrilled about but her husband the blood splatter expert Alex Wilson had convinced her to do it. When she is usually busy solving crimes on this short story she has a total different assignment; to teach at least one hundred thriller writers about her job, to provide them with the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. She had only fifthly minutes to teach her blood eager students and she wanted to make it worth their time. Boy was it worth it?! Yes it was I was so captured by her story that I felt like one of the student sitting in front of her picturing the crime scene she was describing trying to answer her questing and figuring out what a detective would do to solve this crime and who the killer was. I was fascinated with this story and her attitude of course i love her.

"Boston homicide works as three-people squads. I'm a sergeant detective, meaning I'm the so called leader of my squad, though my teammates, Phil and Neil, would love to argue."

She was like



And I was like



She figured the best way to keep her class awake was to tell them about the most shocking true case she had to solve. I don’t want to give out the details because it’s so short that I will be giving away the book and it’s so good not to read it. D.D. educates her classroom how to solve a murder the right way by providing them step by steps details of what a real murder case is handled under her authority. She made her classroom guess all the clues and at the end I was so shocked that I didn’t figure out what the lie was bahaha. I should have known but I was just like the writers sitting hungry to try to figure out what she was saying. It truly was a good book that kept me on the edge of my bed. Now I feel the need to get more of this writer. She teases you with the first two chapters of her new book coming out on February of next year and boy do I want to get my hands on that book right now?! Yes I do. To all my romance readers this book may not be for you as it is a suspense thriller with no romance.

My Rating 4***Surprisingly Emotional ~Stars

Title: Untamed
Author: S.C. Stephens
Genre:Contemporary Romance
Type: Book 4 of Thoughtless Series
POV: First Person – Male 

"She had my back, she believed in me. That relief was what kept me going. Anna was the fuel to my awesome-train."

This was such an amazing roller coaster ride. I was laughing so hard the first thirty five percent of the book. Then I was getting super anxious and nervous I didn't know exactly what to do with myself my anxiety levels were driving me mad; I was watching Griffin heading out for disaster and I just couldn't stop him. I was so pained and scared for what was to come. His awesomeness only was going to go far and when he least expected he hit rock bottom as it was predicted and WOW I didn't realized how much I was going to hurt for him. 

Untamed takes place after the Thoughtless trilogy and is told only from Griffin's point of view. Griffin Hancock; the bassist of the D-Bags had been married to Anna and had a gorgeous beautiful three year old daughter which by the way was just adorable. They had another baby girl on the way; they were not messing around that's for sure. He was just so darn adorable when it came to his girls; yes I used that word twice already because I loved that about Griffin the cocky one yes that one he threw me off with his love for Anna and his now two daughters. He wanted to be good for them but his stubbornness to not pay attention to things; his self-centered and big ego got him in a big hole that had me crying so hard when it finally hit. 

"I had smarts. Smarts, skills, and looks. I was the whole package-a triple threat of awesomeness."

Griffin was so jealous of Kellan the entire time he never admitted to it, he had too much pride to admit it; he was bound to be better he wanted to be like Kellan in his mind he was better than being behind the bass he wanted a lead guitarist or vocal position and he was going to do anything to get it. He tried talking to the boys but no one would take him serious. So he finally had a chance to prove himself of his worth and oh boy the struggles and the messed up he did to get there was well hard to watch. I loved Kellan out of all the boys Kellan was amazing on this book and even Kiera surprised me with her appearance right around seventy five percent I couldn't have been so glad to see her on this book.

Matt and Griffin fought a lot just like family usually do but it got so bad that they stopped talking to each other. Griffin believed that Matt and the band was holding him down from his spotlight; he was so absorbed on what he wanted that forgot to appreciate what he already had in the palm of his hands and when he finally reached that moment that he realized he utterly fucked up I was a bubbling mess of tears. I loved Anna on this book; she was perfect for Griffin they were best friends. Their children was their foundation, their trust for each other and their sex life damn they were so damn good for each other. They had sex everywhere and anywhere where Mr. Hancock needed a hand Anna was just there just as needy as him. Their relationship was badass I loved it. She understood his needs and always supported him until too many lies; she just couldn't stay with him the lies was what hunted her the most. She could of go broke and lost it all and still supported him if it wasn't because he hid a lot of stuff from her and made a full of herself and himself. 

"The two of us together were explosive. No, mind-blowind. No…life-altering….Anna just got me, and fully satisfied me like nobody else.

"My regret…I'd been handed fame on a platter and hadn't appreciated it until it was too late."

I was going through so much feeling and emotions I basically cried a river for the last thirty percent of the book. Some tears of sadness, some were frustration and some were of happiness. This book definitely makes you feel so much. I loved the way the author twisted the ending it was just amazing, I had this big hole in my belly right about 95% up to the point of feeling ill but the way the last five percent turned out was a ride I was not expecting and it was completely worth all the angst and nerve wracking. The ending was absofuckinglutly AMAZING. If you are a Griffin fan and a D-Bags fan you will truly love this book but if you didn't like Griffin on the series this book might not be for you it's like thoughtless on steroids haha. I didn't know what I was expecting to read but I sure didn't expect this book to be so fantastic specially the way Griffin LOVE yes he LOVED his girls. That was what did it for me his love for his girls just made this book so worth the heartache and pain in my chest. Sure it was long book and yes Griff annoyed me at times but the ride was so well worth it. This book was so much more than a cocky boy it was about learning that one day you could have it all but in a blink of an eye you could lose it all and it's up to you to let go of your ego and step back up and be humble and earn it all back up the hard way.

My Rating 5***Magical Soul Mate ~Stars

Title: Twisted Magic

Author: Claire C. Riley

Genre: Paranormal Romance

Type: Book 1 of series

POV: First Person – Dual

“There’s something more that pulls us together. No matter what happens, we always find a way. It’s something bigger than us. Bigger than everything.” Peter

Sarah Leigh was the daughter of an evil dark witch; she returned to her home after five years for the funeral of her grandmother. She was angry at her grandmother for casting her away from her home and family five years ago but she still loved her and wanted to be there for a proper burial. Raven’s Cove was ruled by her family; it was her home and where she grew up as a member of the black witches and dark magic. However; Sarah always fought the darkness and try to do what was right embracing the light and never let her darkness take over her. Her mother was jealous of her because apparently Sarah’s powers were unique and stronger than hers. 

“I had always wanted light where there was only dark. I was a freak of my coven, of my family.” Sarah

Peter has been invisible for ten years as a punishment for falling in love with the wrong girl. He never expected what his future was going to be; he was bitter and angry but he couldn’t stop his love for her for “Sarah”. The minute he met her; he knew he would do anything to be with her at any cost but he never imagine that he would be forgotten and imprisoned forever. No one could hear him, see him, or feel him. He was son of the white witches the good power; therefore Sarah and Peter couldn’t be together because their magic combined will be the death of everyone. As Sarah was darkness Peter was light but the more Peter was with Sarah the more he would embrace the darkness in him which was the opposite of Sarah.

“My love for her was eternal, I lived and breathed my love for her, but the blackness inside me was choking my soul.” Peter

Sarah comes back to her grandmother’s home and meets Peter there; when she was cast away from her Coven her grandmother made sure that she had no memory of Peter and what he meant to her. However; the intensity of their love couldn’t be stopped. She is able to see Peter, hear him and even feel him. She can’t understand why she feels so much when she sees into his eyes but she doesn’t care he makes her feel complete and whole; something she had lost when she was away. Peter tries to hurt her with his words to push her away because he feels hopeless, no matter what he knows they could never be together and no one could ever help him get out of his imprisoned life, especially now that the only person that was able to do it is now dead. 

“We were magnets, and we were drawn to one another…her memories may be stolen, but her feelings lived on.” Peter

However; the more time Sarah and Peter spend together before her grandma’s funeral the more she feels for him and feels her heart beat when she’s with him. She knows she has to save him and release that spell that was cast on him so he can be set Free regardless of the consequences. Peter doesn’t want her to try because he knows her family will kill her and he rather live invisible and lonely than to have her dead.

“Separated, we were opposing forces, but together we were two pieces of the same puzzle, united. Together our magic had the potential to destroy everything.” Sarah

“We were the opposite in every way. We were each other’s antonym; we were the anomalies of our family bloodlines, of our covens.” Peter

I was such a nervous wreck while reading this book closer to the end because somehow Sarah managed to get some of her grandmother’s magic without the other witches noticing it and by doing so she would be able to read her spells and set Peter free and not only did she wanted to set him free she knew she belonged with him. When the witches found out omg I was freaking out the entire time. The suspense was driving me mad the action on this part of the book was amazing. There was no sex on this book but the chemistry and the desperation of Peter and Sarah’s feelings and EPIC love hit me hard and I fell for both of these characters hard. I love them so much and the ending left me feeling like I wanted to hit something. I need more; I can’t stand it I need book two like yesterday. This author gives you such an amazing and beautiful romantic story but with a bit of suspense and secrets and you can’t help just reading this in one setting and wanting more. If you like a good soul mate romantic and tragic story you need to read this book. It’s defiantly an absolutely epic forbidden love story that gives you so much feels and leaves you wanting so much more. I will be stalking this author for the next installment in the amazing series.

*** BOOK WARNING ***

For all my romantic lover readers be warned this book is not for everyone it is not a love story and sometimes there is no happily ever after.

Now that you have been warned if you want to read please do so at your own discretion. The blurb sold me on this book well because I'm cray cray like that. To be honest I knew this one was going to be crazy but had no idea how much until I started it. This review is probably going to be the shortest reviews ever because if I tell you the story it will ruin this book and for all my dark book lovers I can't do that to you. 

Alexandre aka Dr. Dane; super-hot and attractive but at the same time full of himself who is pretty crazy which he knows; is a therapist and a sociopath. He has his own method of helping his hopeless and damaged clients. He believes in his head that what he is doing is correct for them but in all reality it is not; however the damages girls don't seem to mind I mean a sex on a stick Doctor that wants to help them get better and feel good in all the right places?! Come on, where do I sign up right?! Lol 

Anyhow everything is not like it seems; things started to get so strange and I was losing my sanity while reading this book but at the same time I was hooked and glued to the pages I just couldn't stop until I finished. Yes I read it in one setting; this book was funny, sexy, and crazy. I kept trying to figure out what the hell was going on, so much mystery, so many theories going in my head until I finally got to the ending and holy shit I did not see it coming. I think I will think about this book forever because I still can't come to terms of how this book ended it was so wicked and twisted and fucked up but I loved it. Yeah I must be losing it too hahaha. So in short words just read this book if you want to find out the insanity of Dr. Dane.

She was young an innocent; she came from a low income home and without money and resources when her high school boyfriend; the rich kid son the Major of their City took advantage of her while he had drugged her after their prom night. She bow to never fall again she closed the key to her heart and became a cold bitch who would just take one night stands to prove he had no power over her body. Being from a trailer home she had no name and anyone to believe her story so she moved on at least she thought she did. Elizabeth earned a full scholarship to college because she was very intelligent and had dreams and moved to her new life.

Every woman wanted him, however his last relationship his heart was hurt he found his girlfriend with another guy and he wasn’t ready to give his heart again anytime soon. He focuses on college, his goals he purchased a gym and he was fighting underground ring to earn money to remodel his new gym and open it up for business. Declan has a twin brother Dax that I loved as well. Dax was the funny, flirty kind of guy it kind of reminded me of Logan from Fallen Crest I wish he gets his book haha. Declan settles into his new apartment and finds his next door beautiful smoking hot neighbor moving in the same day as him.

Later on Declan officially meets Elizabeth at a frat party; he never thought he would see her there his new neighbor. Elizabeth has no clue he is the boy next door but they instantly have a magnetic attraction. I loved their intensity of their first meet. She knows he is bad news, he knows she is not for him. He knows somehow she had been hurt and she didn’t do relationships and he wanted if he ever dated again he wanted a relationship not a one night stand but he knew she was broken and wouldn’t open up. Therefore; he tried really hard to stay away from her and denied her request yes, she openly told him to have the one night stand she is used to but there was something about him that scared her not intimated like he will hurt her but scared that she will defiantly fall for this beautiful man for good and she didn’t want to go there either.

They couldn’t hide from each other for too long she was hot he was hot and the chemistry was just undeniable to everyone around them. Declan and Elizabeth ended up hooking up and boy was it butterflies and fireworks?! Yes it was but it was much more, it was EPIC. I was fanning over it; he was so strong and so amazing. They had struggles to overcome because of his ex and her fear of falling in love and there was Colby who comes back to try to make her life difficult as if he hadn’t hurt her already on prom night. Dirty English is a beautiful story about giving love a second chance, about taking a chance at love again when you think you can’t trust because your heart and body had literally been broken and shattered once. It was packed with action, passion, romance and I was hooked from the beginning that I read it in one setting. To all my YA romance lovers you much read this book it was an enjoyable read. This author has never disappointed me.

“Loving Declan was like the rain storms I loved to dance in. Crazy and unpredictable, sometimes turbulent, sometimes gentle…I wanted him anyway.” Elizabeth

My Rating 5***Chase the Road Runner ~ Stars

Title: Paper Hearts

Author: Claire Contreras

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Type: Standalone Book 2 of Hearts series

POV: First Person – Dual

“Maybe our souls really are scattered in the things we love, and we are all completely lost, but from the moment she looked at me, I felt like I’d been found.” Jensen

There are some stories that will forever stay in your heart, and stories that will speak to you. This book did all of that for me. From the novella “Torn Hearts” I knew I was going in for an emotional ride. I was actually shocked I wasn’t ugly crying on this one but I did shred some tears and they were because with each word that were beautifully written I could feel all the heart ache and my insides twisted and I just felt every emotion and the consequences of their choices. This story was so much more than a second chance. It was a story of lessons, to learn that for every choice we make we have to learn to deal with the consequences of our own choices. 

Mia Bennett, “Meep” aka Road runner; was heartbroken after Jensen the love of her life betrayed her trust. She wouldn’t let it go she couldn’t forgive him; instead she focus on her career and goals and ignore him. She was offered an opportunity she couldn’t give up so she moved temporarily to New York where she knew Jensen will be. Mia had to take the risk of seeing him again after being apart and ignoring him for five years. Her dream was to show and display her photos and get acknowledge and recognition for them and she wouldn’t give up on her dream.

“I let myself get lost in fantasies I created when I was looking at the world through my lens” Mia

Jensen Reynolds; moved to New York City to pursued his dream to be a writer and he succeeded; he became a famous writer. He wrote children’s books and has an article in the newspaper and even got an award for his work. He also wrote a Romance Novel about him and Mia. Jensen made a huge mistake that will forever regret and pay for it. However because of his bad choices he lost the only person that gave him a chance; the only person who he believed had his heart. He lost “her” Mia and now she was coming to his City even if temporarily; he never lost hope and continues to push on and never gave up on their love. He truly believef that she was his soul mate and that they were meant to be together. All the time they have been apart had thought him so much, he had learned to grow and be a better person but the one thing he couldn’t do is let go of her he couldn’t let go of his best friend and soul mate. 

“Nothing is more hunting than regret””Your mind remembers, your senses remember. Your heart remembers.” Jensen

I truly enjoyed reading Jensen’s writing on his newspaper they were just amazing about his feelings and about the love of his life “Mia Bennett” the one that got away because of his stupid choices. 

After Mia arrived at New York she didn’t know what to do around Jensen. He took every opportunity to be with her and challenged her and took her out and wrote about their relationship on his newspaper. I loved everything about it. She did not forget easily and I loved that about it because when someone cheats on you and gets someone pregnant and leaves you to marry them you really have to think a lot before going back and giving them a chance. They ended up reconnecting while she was in New York and he was just amazing, it was hard not to fall head over heels for Jensen. He took her on a bike ride, to eat, and to their favorite band’s concert “Mumford and Sons”. I think that was the best part of the book for me when I completely broke down and cried of how unfair life is sometimes but really it is because of the choices we make. 

They both opened up to each other decided to take it slow and see how it goes. Jensen knew it will take a lot for Mia to forgive him and I have to give Mia props because being in her position I would of done exactly the same thing. If she takes a risk and give him a chance she has to think about the entire package the ex wife, the step - daughter gorgeous beautiful five year old Olivia that has no fault on her daddy’s choices. Mia’s work was a success she got her dream job and her work to be displayed at a famous museum. She had everything she every wanted but had to give him up for her dream job; it hit her hard the words from Jensen that “Home is where the heart is at” and her heart has always been with him. 

The events at the end of this book were just so beautiful and I loved every single moment of it. I love how the author makes you appreciate Jensen’s humble acceptance of his mistakes and try really hard every day to make up for it. I loved how he never gave up on Mia and their love. I love how Mia wasn’t so easy to give in and forget but at the end she realized she had to let go and take advantage of the second chance life was giving her even if that meant leave her dream job behind because she was whole with Jensen. She was still successful thought because her talent was amazing and I just love the fact that both were able to enjoy the work they do and have a life happy after all the heartbreak and sorrow they both had to endured. I would recommend this beautiful story to anyone looking for a second chance story.

Title: Childstar 1

Author: J.J. McAvoy
Genre: Romance - Short Stories
Type: Book 1 of 3 Childstar Series
POV: First Person - Dual 

Childstar is book one in the three part short story series. The story is about two Hollywood Child Stars; a bad boy meet American sweetheart. The story is fabulous full of everything I look for in a book. It's funny, lots of sexual tension, heartache, betrayals, secrets, and a super twisted ending that I did now see coming. 

Amelia London, at age twenty-five gorgeous feels trapped; to the world she is a good girl but she is sick of the life, the lies that her life had become living in the shadows of Hollywood. Her heart was broken and shattered by one man that she never thought she would see again. Destiny put him back into her life and she was ready to confront her demons and take a risk at getting her heart broken again but she knew it was worth it. 

“Our relationship was doomed from the start. The only love that last in Hollywood is the one we fake and sell to others.” Amelia

Noah Sloan, twenty-seven years old managed to grow up as a Childstar with Amelia they both fell in love. Circumstances forced them to be separated for over nine years and he didn't care about anything he continue to show off a bad boy imagine because he was nothing without her. However to the world he was a drug addict who is struggling to make a comeback to the big screen. 

“I was nothing. If I didn’t act, I was nothing. It was just that simple.” Noah

Both their carriers were at stake; Amelia wasn't going to make it big anytime soon anymore unless she takes the only offer that could change her life around. Noah had a bad reputation and was in the same position declining this offer meant no more acting for him. When the only chance for both of them comes up to be the lead actor/actress for the most wanted movie of the year "Sinners Like Us ". This movie was an erotic suspense based on a top seller book. They both had no choice but to take it. Neither of them realized the movie's characters were going to be perfect for each other based on their history. They were both stubborn and fought all the time but their chemistry was just amazing and incredible in front and behind of the cameras.

Their time spent making the movie was priceless I absolutely enjoyed and devour every minute of it. This book considering it was so short had it all for me I was hooked from page one and it left me wanting for more. I will recommend this book to everyone. The minute this book comes out go get it trust me it will be worth it book two and three will come out shortly right after so the waiting is not going to be long. There was so much sexual tension, angst both amazing hero and heroine you will fall hard for Noah and I hurt for both. Did I cried?! Yes and Yes because I just felt so much reading this book the emotions were driving me wild. I just want them to be happy but I guess I’ll have to wait patiently to get there.

My Rating 4***Mysterious Female Monster Hunter ~ Stars

Title: Unraveled

Author: Dina Given

Genre: Paranormal

Type: Book 2 of The Gatekeeper series

POV: First Person - Multiple

“Hope could change the tides of war and save the souls of men, but for me, it was a poison.” Emma

Unraveled continues the madness of Emma Hayes aka Ash. After finding out she is not from Earth but from another world. Ash was able to escape with “Sharur” which we learned why everyone wanted it. It was the AXE that held the power to open up any worlds, it was powerful and it could destroy so much if it landed in the wrong hands. So much happens on this book that had me on the edge of my seat. The suspense, the thrilled was driving me mad. I had so many questions and I felt I couldn’t read this book fast enough.



After Emma’s memory has been given back to her she still couldn’t remember her previews life. She started having nightmares but she knew well that they were memories and it scared her. Finding out she has powers but don’t know how to use them yet made her unease she worried her dark side will hurt others. Even thought we don’t get to see all her power on this book we do see some and I am so thrilled to see her in action using them. All the new energy she gets from the Axe scared her so much she hides it but then she realized she is not strong enough to fight on her own and she depends on this Axe to help her on this new journey that is her new life.

“The weapon didn’t just destroy; it erased. It left behind nothingness, removing its target from the world completely.” Emma

Emma starts killing monsters, she starts sensing evil and gets on to killing them she doesn’t know why but she only destroys the ones she feels are evil and deserves it but leaves the good ones alive. She finds herself on earth fighting all kinds of creatures some good and some bad. One minute she is resting the next she is fighting for her life, this book is so addicting I just couldn’t put it down I had to know what will happen next. How was Emma going to find her step brother Daniel? Would Zane ever turn back to being himself and not the beast he was forced to be? Would Alex want more than just friendship?

I fell in love with Zane from book one and his wildness, coldness, madness drove me insane. He was HOT and scary at the same time but I just couldn’t help falling head over heels and madly in love with this badass beast. Zane was still wild trying to fight the beast inside of him while he try to forget about his love Emma aka Ash, but he was still there trying to fight for her even thought the beast inside of him kept telling him to kill her; he just couldn’t do it. He had hope for them but at the same time he didn’t I was so frustrated. 

“I could think of nothing except how much I wanted to rewind time to when we were both young and madly in love, when my mind had been my own.” Zane

“Her presence also sparked a new drive within me to keep fighting against the snarling beast inside that wanted nothing more than to break free and tear everyone’s throats out.” Zane

Alex, wow I loved him so much but the love triangle was making me so anxious it had me on the edge I just couldn’t handle it. I loved him but just not like that, for me Zane was it from the beginning and having Alex’s showing his feelings on this book just made me feel sad because he deserves his better half and in my heart Emma and Zane are it even thought they were still fighting against each other to survive all their demons. Alex was always there to help Emma and protect her thought and I loved him for that. He betrays her and she was devastated but he had his reasons and even thought I understand them it was hard to swallow. He was trying so hard as well to help his best friend Zane and I admired him so much for it for putting his friendship first over the feelings he had for Emma.

“She could destroy me with a simple rejection, yet I was drawn to her like an insignificant gnat to a black widow’s web” Alex

Emma is trying to find answer to her new identity and in the midst of the madness she meets so many new characters, she tries to survive so many times I never knew what was coming next. There was dragons, monsters, shifters, Elves, and all kinds of creatures, powerful gods and not so powerful ones but she finds herself in a complete different situation trying to figure out how to survive this madness and why that was the question why does everyone want her?. After a book full of action and suspense we get some answers at the end. However, I don’t get the closure I need about her love story with Zane there’s still so much more I want to know and now I have to wait lord know how long for the next book to find out what’s going to happen next. They still have a war to fight and another world to save and it’s just madness that I can’t wait to get my hands on and see how this is going to end. I feel like I just finished watching an episode of Game of Thrones where you are left full of anxiously dying and waiting and craving for more.

“I would avenge the woman who’d had her child stolen from her, who hadn’t been able to see that little girl grow up. I will also avenge myself for my lost childhood and never knowing the love of a mother.” Emma

My Rating 5***Fearsome Foursome Awesome ~ Stars

Title: Fallen Crest University

Author: Tijan

Genre: Contemporary Young Adult
Type: Book 5 of Fallen Crest series 

POV: First Person - Multiple

“Taking hold of the back of her neck, I leaned forward, taking her lips in mine….She was mine. I wanted her. I wanted to take what was mine-“ Mason

Fallen Crest Family continues with the drama that started on book four at Cain University. Sebastian Park is not going to let what Mason did to his frat house go away so easily. He knows the only way to hurt Mason and get his payback is thru Sam. He knows well that Mason would do anything for Sam and he wants to destroy him by getting to him where it hurts the most. Sam and Logan are now in college with Mason and Nate. Oh how excited I was having the fearsome foursome back together. 

Mason is trying to let Sam adjust to her new school year as much as possible so he hide stuff about Park and his plans from her and even from Logan. Sam wants a normal school year so she agrees with Mason to try to make new friends. Regardless she is also going to protect Mason from Sebastian because Mason’s football carrier is most important if he gets in trouble his football carrier is out the window. Therefore she also hides things from him. Lies and secrets are building up once again and when that happens well shit always happens.

Logan oh what can I say about him?! Well I love him to pieces. He was his awesome charm as usual funny and super badass. The love between these two brothers is ridiculous I love them so much. Logan loves his brother so much he also hide things from Mason and tried to protect both him and Sam from Park. Poor Nate does get hurt again and it made me so sad for him and then Logan gets hurt and omg I was all full of anger and so pissed at Park I thought I hated him before but I was wrong I hate him more now.

In the midst of all the drama Mason and Sam were able to show how much they love each other there were some sexy scenes I couldn’t get enough of them. They are just made perfectly for each other strong and always looking for each other. I feel like this book shows how strong and true their love is, they both have defiantly found their sole mate on each other. Loved these two so much and Logan always teasing them was even better he was just the funny lay back awesome brother.

"Mason," I murmured. I wanted his mouth on me, anywhere on me. I wanted him to go faster. I wanted to feel the ride. The sensations were building. I was going to come.

"Sam," he whispered, bending over so that his lips grazed my ear. He kept moving. I felt his body tensing and knew he was right with me. He cursed, gasping. "I love you."

There were so much drama, fights, parties, new friendships, secrets. This book was just freaking amazing right from the start. I completely did not see what Tijan had in store after seventy percentages into this book and all the way up to the end. It was a completely shocking, amazing and brilliant ending. What Mason does made me want to love him and claim him more if that’s even possible. I admired Sam and Logan so much. Everything about this book was just brilliant I just can’t get enough. I seriously don’t want this series to ever end. I would read this series till the end of time and would recommend it to all my YA reader that love some Hot brothers, a badass heroine, lots of action and drama. This series is defiantly a must read my all time favorite YA series ever. 

"You and Logan are not monsters. You protect. You take care. You shield those you love." Sam

Title: Ruin & Rule

Author: Pepper Winters

Genre: Dark, contemporary romance

Type: Book 1 of 2 from Pure Corruption MC series

POV: First Person – Female

“Everything inside me reeked with the need to reap vengeance. It was all I lived, all I ate, all I breathed. Until her. Until the imposter with green eyes.” Kill

Arthur Killian aka Kill, the president of Pure Correction MC; wanted revenge for the past eight years. At only twenty-six years old he had managed to block feelings and just keep memories to keep his rage and hate for revenge alive. He was lethal with his tattoos, green eyes and his power for revenge. Somehow he managed to become the youngest prez in history, but it was all due to the stronger power of avenging the lost of everything he lost. He was frustrating as hell, he meets this girl that reminded him of a girl he once loved but refused to do the right think he was even going to sell her and omg I had rage I saw red. I couldn’t believe he was so cold and could let the pass go. His “Give me time and I’ll tell you” was killing me all the mystery was driving me mad. 

Cleo Price, had amnesia due to a trauma; she had no memory of who she was. She meets Arthur on a horrible situation but all she wants to do is get away from him and run as far away but where? To whom? She did not know. Somehow as the days progressed she realized she felt save with Kill. There was something about this man that she knew she had to know, he was her way to finding out what happened to her and who she really was. When she was with him she found herself remembering her past, she had a lot of flashbacks of her past she couldn’t understand. At age twenty two years old, Cleo was coated with scars and lots of tattoos over her scars. Scars she obtained on a fire but what fire?? What really happened?? OMG this book was so full of mystery and left me with so many questions.

Kill and Cleo find their way to each other they both had a dark past and it hurts so much to remember what each of them went through but somehow they knew that what they had was different. The feelings they were having couldn’t be made up.

“He tore me out, stole me away, changed the whole prophecy of who I was meant to be.” Cloe

“She made me want things I’d sworn never to want. She made me weak. She made me hate.” Kill

This story was amazing I enjoyed every second of it. I went to the stages of emotions, sad, upset, anger, hot and bothered and anxious. The events at the end of this book had me wanting to throw my kindle away but of course instead I cuddle up in a ball and cried myself to sleep because I hurt so much for these two characters. The author had this way to get you so attach to them and then she makes you hurt for them so hard I am still struggling and trying to figure out how on earth this is going to end. Yes because there’s a huge cliffhanger. I must wait patiently until their conclusion comes out. I recommend this book if you are looking for a romantic book full of mystery angst and revenge. I wouldn’t really say this is a MC but I still enjoyed it a lot. 

“The truth had the power to kill me. The truth was despicable.” Cleo

TITLE: A Bedtime Story

AUTHOR: L.C. Moon

GENRE: Dark Erotica BDSM/Twisted

TYPE: Series Book 1 of 3

POV: First Person - Dual

“Maybe I am a monster. But I’m your monster. I’ll fight for you. I’ll kill for you. You’re mine. Always. Wherever you go. I’ll find you. Always. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you.” Kayne

Kayne Malkin was 30 year old, cold blooded killer who worked for the Russian mob. He was tall, dark, and handsome.Peter Spencer had betrayed the mob and taken some important evidence with him, he just couldn’t handle the woman trafficking and had to get away from all of it. Peter knew the risk he was taking by leaving but he just couldn’t handle it. Therefore he left and had been running for over eight months. Kayne’s latest assignment was to find Peter’s only family, his sister Laura and get Peter’s location from her. When someone betrays the mob they pay with their life and there is no mercy. 

Laura Spencer was 23 years old, living on her own with no friends or family other than her brother Peter. Even though she hadn’t seen him for a long time she knew he was on some sort of trouble. Peter would always write her postcards to keep in touch with her but she had to destroy it once she read them. It was the only thing she had from Peter that kept her waking up each morning. Her reality was that she did not have a social life other than work. She had couple of boyfriends that she ended relationships with before they got too serious because she was not able to have children and her past was too dark she didn’t want them to see who she really was. Her childhood left her traumatized grew up with no mother and her father would lock her in a dog cage days at a time as punishment if she didn’t obey. Peter would take some of the punishment and always get her out of the cage. She was traumatized and tried to live her life as normal as possible but she failed miserably. The only person who truly understood her was her brother Peter who at age 16 ran away and came back for her to save her from that miserable life her father had created. I loved Peter so much for it. 

“Worse than the fear of the life awaiting her, it was the stab of knowing she was leaving nothing worthy behind that hurt the most” Laura

Kayne was all sorts of frustration, he had no feelings but somehow after watching Laura for two weeks and planning to bring her down to his organization for interrogation he saw something in her that he couldn’t stay away from. He wanted her for him; he wanted to make her his pet, his submissive to do as he pleased. He found out she was damaged and it pained him so. He wanted to help her and the only way he was able to do that was to take her in as a prisoner in his home. He knew that the mob wanted her for trafficking once she spilled where her brother was at and he wasn’t going to let that happened. Yes, he was annoying as hell like if she wouldn’t obey to what he said he would punish her. She was annoying too because she would cry a lot but the truth was she was scared of him having living in an abusing household made her brake easily. 

He seduced her to trick her to get the brother’s location and he took care of his assignment which was to get the evidence peter had and kill him. 

“He moved down her body, kissing every inch of her, taking her breast in his mouth and swirling his tongue around her nipple as she moaned in response. His fingers then dipped down her belly and touched her wetness as he continued to kiss and nip her firm soft breast….He brought his mouth to her slit, his tongue continuing the sweet torture his fingers had initiated….He licked his lips with delight, staring at her hungrily as he removed his jeans and then lay his body over hers.” Kayne

He promised her he wouldn’t kill him but regardless Peter died even if he didn’t do it himself. Peter knew it was the only way to save his sister and I was a sobbing mess around this. I couldn’t see straight after this chapter. When Laura found out she blamed Kayne and stayed away from him for a month. I didn’t blamed her, I hated him too. Gah…It’s paining me writing this right now, I feel like my chest is going to get out of my skin. 

“Take care of her.” Peter

“You have my word.” Kayne

“But he did come back for me. He found me. He saved me…And I didn’t. I didn’t save him…I didn’t…” Laura

Kayne knew that she would never be able to trust him again and he understood but even after he completed his assignment he knew he couldn’t let her go. One, because he was a selfish motherfucker and in a sick way he somehow had fallen in love with her. Two, even if he let her walk away the mob would not want any kind of treat. They will still get rid of her and she will still have to die or worse put on their trafficking business. He wanted to save her so instead he married her. It was the saddest wedding ever. I wanted to punch and hit something. He got promoted a day after the wedding and left her for four weeks. She was already broken after childhood, her brother’s death and now Kayne and this horrific marriage however; she had fallen in love with this monster. She knew there was nothing waiting for her if she left. Kayne gave her the power and money as Mrs. Malkin. She had parties every night shopped every day and pretended her life was amazing while missing her monster who was trying to stay away longer so he didn’t have to see how much he had ruined his love.

“His Laura, he’s loved her with the ferocity of a mother and her defenseless babe. He’s loved her with the awe that brought you to your knees in the presence of the divine. With his entire wretched being, he’d loved her, as a man hopelessly loves a woman. She would never know, she would never hear this from him. This one regret burned him alive as his heart bled out”. Kayne

However, when he finally returned, he was surprised to find a different Laura. She was stronger and determine and she ignored him like he meant nothing to her and that completely pissed him off and made me so happy. Two can play the same game motherfucker. She had hired new help and one girl in particular she purposely had hired her to test Kayne’s trust and see how far he could go at being a monster. Sadly she found it too quick that he was a sick fucker and it was because he couldn’t control her like he always wanted to. He would bend her but would never break her as he wanted to. She became cold and a killer like him. I was so not expecting the ending, like WTF did just happen?!! Honestly, I was shocked but I understood why it had to happen and now I can’t wait for the next book because the weak crying Laura has died with her beast and now the new Laura Kayne Malkin is going to get revenge and I hope everyone pays.

“Mrs. Malkin would rise. Mrs. Kayne Malkin would meet her cursed life in her best attire, with her eyes dry and her hair perfectly set. She would understand the necessity to survive, to remain strong. Mrs. Kayne Malkin would devote the rest of her life to avenge her Master.” Laura

Betrayal made her commit revenge, oh sweet ole revenge that cost her for as long as she could remember. Now all her dreams have been washed away stuck in a small town where everyone knows everyone’s secrets. She lost all her friends her college dreams and anything she ever wanted was gone in a blink of an eye. Now her focus was to live every day as it was her last with a bit of regret for what she had done but she couldn’t chanced anything even if she wanted to. One day an opportunity came knocking at her door. She meets Ben, who she makes a deal with they become great friends. Now she had a new goal get over the deal she made with Ben get her money and leave to wherever she wanted to away from gossipers and people who didn’t matter just start a new life even if that meant leaving her mother behind.

“I would not be my mother. I wanted, in some way, to live my life…I wanted to be something different. I wanted to be someone different, someone without scorn, someone without a past. Someone with a future.” Summer

Cole Masten ; got lucky at only seventeen years old; Hollywood discovered him and his life haven’t been the same since. He was gifted with natural beauty and talent had won three academy awards since he was discovered. Now at thirty-five years old life was good until he finds the love of his life; a wife of five years had been playing him all alone for his fame and money. I didn’t like his wife since the beginning of the book it could be the fact that he loved her to death or perhaps I was just jealous of the way Cole loved because let me tell you when he loves he is amazing. He was basically forced to move into Georgia for the movie he was producing and acting. It was his project; his baby and he wanted to be part of every step of the way. However; he ended up going to this small town before his scheduled time and he was not happy about that.

Destiny had other plans for Cole and Summer. Cole lands in Quincy, Georgia without a place to stay; his personal assistant Justin was injured and Cole was off to tend for himself something he hadn’t done in so long. Being a Hollywood actor had lots of pros and having someone to do everything for you was one of them. He basically had to learn how to buy a truck, move around, get groceries all on his own it was pretty funny actually. He meets Summer the first day and he loved her stubborn attitude, he couldn’t believe that she wasn’t affected by his beauty the way the entire world had been he wasn’t used to not being the attention. Instead Summer’s attention was on his attorney Brad De Luca. Summer was stunned by his beauty of course but she was too suborned to show it and didn’t want to give this cocky bastard more ego it was absolutely hilarious. 

“He wanted her. In some primal way that didn’t make sense.” Cole

Their relationship from there was just fantastic because it was a mouse and cat kind of relationship I loved the chase. Cole defiantly took the challenge and never gave up on chasing Summer stubbornness. Even if all they did was constantly fight he wanted to be near her. Cole found Summer’s attitude to match the part of the movie he was producing and did everything he could to get her to sign the contract. Summer didn’t want the fame or the attention but she wanted the money to make her dreams come true. She accepted his offer and the experience for both during the movie sets were just HOT, SPICY, and ENTERTAINING. 

“Sex with him was my drug, and the better the high, the more I would crave it when it was gone.” Summer

“I want to make you scream my name and come underneath my mouth and taste the moment you fall apart for me.”Cole

Secrets came out because let’s face it in a small town nothing kept hidden for long, Summer’s secret came out and it could of ruined the movie. So many other events had me laughing so much with Summer and her gift to Cole. Summer finding a great friend in Ben and can I say I love the fact of meeting Brad the attorney?? Wow that was an instant change of panties for me. I absolutely loved everything about this story. It was so refreshing, unique, and incredible written. I loved all the characters on this book the plot was just amazing. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a sweet story and is ok with a Cinderella kind of story. 

Epic WORLDWIDE (F) buddy-read for Hollywood Dirt on Sept. 7th!

My Rating: 5***CORRUPTING ~ TWISTED & VENGEFUL ~ STARS

Title: Insidious

Author: Aleatha Romig

Genre: Erotic Thriller

Type: Book 1 of Tales From The Dark Side Standalone 

POV: First Person - Female

INSIDIOUS is the story of Victoria Conway at only eighteen years of age she was forced to make a decision that would either make her or break her. She was young and naive who gets caught up in a horrible situation. It was truly a really a bad situation to be in and I felt horrible for her to an extent.







Stewart Harrington; at forty years of age, rich and with power offered Victoria or "Tori" a way out to save her family of a big mess they have gotten into. He was handsome for his age and millionaire which was very appealing. He made Victoria the offer of a lifetime. But as usual nothing good comes without a price.






Victoria grew up in a horrible family environment and her sister was who was keeping her together and alive. However nothing is like it seems. So many secrets unravel on this story. I was on the edge of my seat literally couldn't stop reading this book. I was engorged on this story. It was all fills of crazies I was not expecting but I couldn't seem to stop wanting to know how all this was going to play out.

She accepts Mr. Harrington's offer and instantly becomes the woman everyone wants to be however ten years of misery made her cold and the moment she thinks she is finally free she finds herself with more surprises.

"My days as someone's whore were over."Victoria

Brody works for at the firm as a legal representative for her husband; she finds an allied in him. Oh boy what can I say I fell hard for him even though at some point in this book I just couldn't trust anyone. I was so desperate for answers I was going mad. He was Victoria support and it was just hard not to love him. 



Then we get to know Travis much close and personal who worked for Steward for many years. Let's just say I was so conflicted reading this book because I truly enjoy all these characters. I loved him as well; he was strong and straight forward didn't hold back and didn't lie. I still couldn't trust him but I liked him.



Everything about this book was amazing, the suspense, the thrill, and the erotic scenes had me all hot and bothered in so many ways I can't hardly explained. And after reading so many reviews I was what else could possibly shock me? I mean everything Victoria went through was shocking, horrible, and in a way a bit traumatized. I admire her strength and loved her character. But the ending was just genius absolutely unexpected I was in shocked. It leaves the readers with an open window to make up their own ending. This was my very first book by this author and I can assure you it will not be my last. 

"With each minute, the blackness inside of me grew and illuminated my cold, dead heart." Victoria

Title: Sugar Baby Beautiful

Author: J.J. McAvoy

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Type: Standalone (short novella to follow)

POV: First Person - Dual

I honestly went into this book blinded I just loved the cover and the author. What I read was just beyond my expectations; this story was so unique and brilliant. It had everything I look for in a book and so much more. I laughed, cried, and I was completely shocked at events I was totally not expecting. It was truly a fresh of air to read such a great story that makes you go through all the emotions and enjoy every single minute of it. 




Felicity Harper; a dead gorgeous twenty four year old who is going through life surviving on her own, does not have time for love or sex for that matter. She learned to depend on no one by working three jobs and basically staying away from everyone other than her two roommates Cleo and Mark. Her roommates “forced” her to attend a party but not just any party a “Sugar Party” where working class people will hook up with millionaires and exchange sex for money. She was naturally beautiful with long, soft, and honey-brown hair and amazing hazel eyes. She didn’t want the money but was curious about the sex. When she got to the party she instantly regret it, so she hides away; able to escape to a private room where she found a piano. Playing music was always something natural for her taking her to a place she can escape. She didn’t realized Mr. Darcy the one and only CEO of Darcy Entertainment was watching her play with so much intensity he wanted to know her deeply in his bed of course; he instantly was impressed and fascinated with her beauty and talent.





Theodore Darcy aka Theo, a wealthy man; at only thirty one years old; famous for his talent as a film director, writer, and producer was not expecting to find someone like Felicity at his home. However; from the moment he set eyes on her his world slowly changed. He wanted to know her; he wanted to make her his and keep her. Something about her brought life to him and he wanted more. He was completely amazed by her music and just wanted own her. 

“Not knowing what she would do or say next. She seduced me just by breathing.” Theo

The relationship between these two was super-HOT. At first they made a deal she only wanted sex no strings attached and no money in returned; he was ok with it as long as she was only his. They agreed to the hot steamy sex which yes there was lots of sexy scenes the first half of the book that I would never forget. However; their relationship started to get too intimate and Felicity kept backing away from it. She had a dark past and was afraid to open up and give love a chance; so she kept running away from Theo every time she felt that they were getting too close. Theo had never come across someone that would make him feel the way he felt with her; for the first time in his life he didn’t care about what the world thought of him he just cared about how happy and alive he felt when he was with her. 

“I don’t share with anyone, ever. Until we’re over I’m the only one you see”. Theo

Theo was such an amazing character; I loved him so much for everything he did on this book for everything he went thought. He is a hero you will fall head over heels and you would never forget him I promise you that. He never gave up and did anything to help Felicity and I have him on my top list and he holds a very close spot to my heart. He truly was an amazing alpha.

“We’ll hurt each other and be better for it.”…When she wrapped her hands around my neck, I knew right away: SHE WAS MINE.” Theo

There are so many twists and turns on this story I can’t really go into details because it will basically ruin the story for everyone. However; I can honestly say this book has left me wanting for more. I do love a lot of books I can’t help it but this book my friends has absolutely blew my mind away with how well written and the amazing plot and twisted it was like nothing I’ve ever read. I guarantee you will not want to miss out on this amazing ride; it will blow your mind away and keep you on the edge wanting for more. It was super sexy, so much angst and totally shocking events that I’m still trying to processed everything I just read. I will recommend this book to everyone looking for a sexy read with angst and twists and a book of hope and true love. 

“For the first time in a long time, I felt safe in someone else’s arms, even as my world crumbled….“You’re one of a kind, Theodore Darcy.” Felicity

My Rating: 5***I need this Sexy lawyer ~ Stars

Title: Sustained 

Author: Emma Chase

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Type: Standalone book 2 of The Legal Briefs series

POV: First Person – Male

This book starts off with Jake Becker’s POV; in all honestly this is my very first MALE pov book so I was not sure if I was going to like it. So as I read I was waiting for the heroine’s pov but it never came and it was not needed because this book was so well written I was able to get a full ride without both pov’s. 

Jake Becker; a thirty year old criminal defense attorney; sexy, with tattoos under his business suit seems to have his life all put together. A total bad boy when it comes to girls and relationships. As a lawyer; he had no time for love and family, all he cared about was his job and random one night stands. He had a routine and didn’t consider himself a family man and didn’t have time to handle all the drama that comes with it. However; things changes for Jake very quickly when a “one night stand” shows up in his office stating that she might have spread a sexual transmitted disease to him. He freaked out and it was kind of like an eye opener. Jake decided to perhaps give dating a try and not just one night stands. I meet his friends the “gang” that were extremely supported and funny; and now I want to know more about them.

Chelsea McQuaid at only twenty-six years of age; had to change her life around in a blink of an eye. Overnight her life came crashing down after an awful accident that left her to care for her six nephews and nieces. It was definitely a challenge but she never thought twice about taking the responsibility. She knew very well that she wall all these kids had and she was going to be there for them. I really liked her courage and how human she was having to deal with the death of her brother and grief; and then having to be strong for all the little ones watching and depending on her.

Jake and Chelsea ended up meeting each other through one of the children. They are all going through a hard time and trying to figure out how to deal with their grief. Jake ends up spending more time with the kids and Chelsea. Little by little his heart starts getting soft without him even knowing. He protected and defended the kids like they were his own and I absolutely loved it.

“There’s no monsters, Regan.” In real life there are, but not in this house. Not while I’m breathing. “I’ve got you, kiddo. You’re safe. Shhh…go to sleep.” Jake

He was instantly attracted to Chelsea of course his man side turned on immediately but it was much more than that and he promised himself to try to see if the dating would work out. However; he was so afraid to accept the feelings he was having. They both gave in and just let it be and made it work for the both of them. He was fantastic with Chelsea, he defiantly showed her a good time. 

He made me cry yes I was mad at him for not accepting that sometimes you just have to let it be. I was also sad for him for everything he was doing and feeling. I just fell head over heels for him, totally bad ass. Jake and Chelsea relationship worked for both no strings attached and both working with the kids. I loved their relationship; I loved all the kids it was just so hard not to. There were so many funny parts on this book I was dying laughing. There was some angst it had me devastated and of course some heartache. But overall there was just so much heart and soul on this story; I loved everything about it. How Jake was able to grow over his fear of responsibility and be a family and support for all the kids. The kids were absolutely well “kids” wild, chaos, funny and I loved them. This book was so much more than what I was expecting; it was my very first Emma Chase book and I can tell you it would not be my last. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for funny read packed with emotions, and most definitely a sexy hero that is worth keeping. 

“Something inside me crumbles; I want her-this fearless, stunning woman. And I want the kids. Those perfect, awful, amazing children…But even more than that, I want to deserve them. To be worthy.” Jake

My rating: 5***Beautiful Second Chance ~ Stars

TITLE:Cocky Bastard
AUTHOR:Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland
GENRE:Contemporary Romance 
TYPE:Standalone
POV:First Person – Dual 

“Do you want to keep me, or will you throw me away?” Chance






Aubrey “AH-BREE” Bloom, is on a road trip to a new life in California. A new job for a new law firm waits for her. She decided to leave her past behind after a bad relationship left her wanting a fresh new start. On her trip to California she made a stop in Nebraska and meets this HOT, Beautiful, Australian, and Cocky man that you only see in movies. Her first impression of him was that he was Cocky and full of himself. It annoyed her because she instantly felt attracted to him. Well I would be the same way if I ever find a blue eye, deep dimples, and a body to die for. He was just simply beautiful and irresistible with his Australian accent. 




Chance Bateman a twenty-eight; retired from professional soccer in Australia was traveling to his home in California when his motorcycle died on him. He didn’t know if it was luck or faith or coincidence but he meets Aubrey on the road to his destination and makes a deal with her; they will ride together and he will make sure that she makes it there safe considering the drive to California was long and a woman on her own was not safe. She was skeptical but decided she liked him and took a chance. Chance was absolutely an eye catcher from the beginning he made me laugh so much. He would mess around with Aubrey and his accent drove her mad but in the good way. 



Change and Aubrey, find a GOAT in the road and this just made the book so much interesting. I fell in love with this cute little thing and both of them were just hilarious when it came down to the Goat. They take a detour to "Las Vegas" before they reached California with their new baby Goat. Aubrey knew not to get too close to Chance after her bad breakup but she really felt a magnetic pulled and an attraction to him. Chance made her heart beat and he made her feel alive. Even thought she did not know if they would be seeing each other after they make it to California she still really wanted to find out and wanted to hope. She opens up to him, he loved flirting with her and making her laugh. The entire road trip just fascinated me, I think my cheeks hurt so much from laughing and grinning by the time I finished reading this book. Chance starts feeling the same ways for “AH-BREE” but a dark secret is keeping him from letting her in and continue something he knew that couldn’t happen even if he wanted to. It was frustrating trying to figure out his secret.









They ended up having the best last night of their life and the worse in Las Vegas. I was full of emotions half way on this book but the second half is told from Chance’s point of view and I didn’t think I could possibly love him more. Yes, what he did made me mad but he had a good reason. He went through so much to earn Aubrey’s trust back to the point that I wanted to slap her and tell her to wake up and see the big picture. This beautiful man would basically do anything for her and she just couldn’t see it. He basically returned and stalked her and fought hard for her. I completely loved this book from beginning to end. It was so different, fresh, funny, sexy and these two characters were both great. The events that occurred at the end had me a bit nervous but it all ends up being wrapped up so well and beautifully I loved every single minute of it. I would most defiantly recommend this book to everyone who is looking for a second change story, a story of true love, forgiveness and who don’t mind a cocky beautiful Australian accent making you laugh the entire time and a blind cute Goat added to the picture. 

“A single minute can change an entire life. Yet, I still feel like somehow we would have met anyway….because I know now that you’re my soulmate.”Aubrey

My Rating: 4***ALWAYS KNOCK~STARS

Title: Sinful Intent

Author: Chelle Bliss

Genre: Contemporary Romantic Suspense

Type: Standalone Book 1 in the ALFA PI Series

POV: First Person – Dual 

”She made me want to be a better version of myself. No longer needing to protect the soldiers of my past, I made her safety and happiness my priorities.” Morgan

Morgan DeLuca, an only child who has gotten away with many things at an early age; had just come home to Michigan from being on military duty services for eight years. Now that he was out, he needed a job and a new place to live and get his life back together. We meet his mother Mrs. DeLuca; she was an amazing character, I truly enjoyed her charisma. Morgan’s younger cousin was getting married and his mother took no for an answer; they were both flying to Florida to the wedding and to visit the Gallos family.

Morgan had such a great sense of humor as well as all his cousins; I loved them all from the beginning. I laughed so much reading this book I didn’t thought it was possible. After his cousin’s wedding; Morgan takes an offer from his cousin Thomas to stay in Florida and work for him as a private investigator for his family business “The Gallos ALFA Private Investigation”. His first case was to find out who was harassing “Race True” a twenty seven year old woman who worked as a senior contract manager at a firm in Downtown Florida.

Race True, was a very independent woman and after her last boyfriend cheated on her she decided to freeze her heart and not let anyone in. Her father’s death left her feeling sad and lonely and she poured herself in her work. Her life became work and that made her one of the top managers in the firm she worked at. Everyone wanted to be her, and now she was in danger of losing that position and maybe her life. Someone had something to ruin her reputation and they were bound to take her down. That someone was blackmailing her and she needed to find out who before it was too late. She hired The ALFA investigators to find out who this creep was.

Morgan and Race’s first meeting was very interesting; they were both instantly attracted to each other but cocky and stubborn to show their true colors. Their relationship fascinated me from the beginning. Many things happened on this book, there was some suspense trying to find out the responsible blackmailer. Morgan and Race relationship heated up quickly and I couldn’t helped but loved it. It was super HOT.

There were so many funny things that had me laughing so much that I was literally crying it was so funny. These are some examples why it was so funny and I truly couldn’t control my laughter:

“My dick twitched-honest to God, moved inside my pants from her filthy mouth.” Morgan

“I read somewhere that a pussy snaps back to virginal tightness after being empty for so long. I wouldn’t be shocked if mine was sealed closed with cobwebs inside.” Race

I got to meet some of the Gallos on this book and boy do I want to know them all?! Yes I do. One thing to always remember about the boys on this book is to always knock on the door. This is why. (view spoiler).

This book was truly so fun to read; it had everything I look for in a book. A little of suspense, funny characters, lots of heated scenes, a strong family that would do anything for each other; a healing couple that find themselves and helped each other to be strong. This was my first book by this author; I don’t know why because her books had been recommended to me so many times I stopped counting. I am so happy I read this and it will not be my last. After reading this book I am really looking forward to reading all of the Gallos Brothers. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end.

“Morgan DeLuca was mine as much as I was his.” Race

My Rating: 5***Emotional ~ Heartbreak Stars

Title: Fourth Debt
Author: Pepper Winters
Genre: Dark Erotic Romance
Type: Book 5 of 6 from Indebted series
POV: First Person – Dual 

If you are following the series by now you know the ending on the last book left everyone broken and in pain. The first ten percent of this book I was a sad bubbling mess. The author takes you right back where the last book ended and the pain started all over again. I am fully invested on this series and I refused to wait until the next book so I dived in as soon as I got it. Going in I was already preparing myself to endure more torture but never imagine what it was in store for Nila. Minor spoiler if you have not read the series so read at your own risk.

Nila Weaver, was left with a broken heart after the love of her life has been taken from her by his own father. She was left alone to deal with this crazy family. Her lost made her mad and angry and all she wanted was revenge against this awful family who didn’t think twice about hurting their own blood. Cut, his evil mother Bonnie and youngest son Daniel enjoyed torturing Nila as much as they could while they could; they took pleasure using her to cause pain mentally and physically.Nila, thought she was strong enough to endure anything because she believe she could not be broken; she believed with all her heart that she could avenged her lover ”Jethro”.

“While they plotted, I plotted…Together, we would meet in hell, and I was past caring who would win.” Nila

Nila’s twin brother Vaughn was captured and kept as prisoner as well but away from her. He was forced to witness some of the torments she had to go through and that only made her fight harder so he wouldn’t get hurt. I was in tears all over again seeing how much she had to put up with and having no power to change the inevitable. This entire book was full of sorrow and even after all my tears had dried I still had to continue this madness that Pepper started. I just wanted it all to end to be over, how much more pain could Nila take before she was no longer a human. For me this book was hard to read because I was feeling so many emotions and I was hurting for this broken girl that only wanted her lover back and wanted this evil family to stop their madness.

There was some twists and turns that I was not expecting, some craziness I just can’t get out of my mind. There was a new character we hadn’t met before and I truly liked. He was a true hero in my eyes. And then there were some happy times I truly enjoyed and devoured every second of them. I was already waiting for this ending, yes it ends in another u>cliffhanger so be warned. I was not as shocked as I thought I would be however; I was anxious because now all I could think of is how on earth is this series going to end?! So many questions and no answers I guess I will have to sit patiently and wait for the last book that will complete this crazy roller coaster ride. I just know the last book in this series is going to be EPIC.

FINAL DEBT (Indebted #6)
iBooks: http://bit.ly/1A1wpch

******************************************

My Rating: 5*** Ugly Cry Stars

Title: Third Debt
Author: Pepper Winters
Genre: Dark Erotic Romance

Type: Book 4 of 6 from Indebted series

POV: First Person – Dual

"Her heart belonged to me. And my heart belonged to her" Jethro

What an amazing, intense, emotional and suspenseful roller coaster ride. If you are following this series you know how awful second debt ended. So starting this book brought back all those emotions and so yeah I was an emotional wreck from the beginning. 

The story continues with the two families fighting over their ancestors sins. The Hawks believed that the Weaver's first daughters belonged to them to pay ancestors past debts. The Hawks are the most wealthy family there is. They have Jewel mines, weapons and they have a hidden motorcycle club. They basically have power and money that the Weavers would never have. 

It starts basically right where it left off. Jethro Hawk aka Kitehad fallen in love with Nila Weaver (the last Weaver alive). They had gone thorough so much in the last 3 books. Nila's twin brother Vaughn had cause so much social media attention to help her get out of the hands of the Hawks. Jethro let her get away, he told her to get her freedom and in return he was ready to die for her. However, Cut his father (which I absolutely hate so much) decided to give him another chance to live. He gave him an ultimatum which Kite had really no option but to accept in order to protect Nila, his brother and sister from his heartless father and also their evil brother Daniel. 

Cut offered Jethro some magic pills that helped him be numb and immune to feel. He basically became an asshole once again to protect his love ones. His brother Kestrel aka Kes and sister Jasmine aka Jaz where so upset at him. He basically ignored them and stayed away so that he could become like his father and take over the family's inheritance like he was supposed to as a first born child.

Jethro

Nila aka Threads was safe back home in London, however she was lonely and incomplete. She also had fallen in love with Jethro. The last 3 books they have both suffered, they were both broken but together they felt complete. She desperatly wanted to be back with him and save him from his crazy family. She was willing to sacrifice herself to save him and her both from this madness that was the ridiculous debts. 

Nila

So much happened in this book that had me on the edge of my seat. I couldn't put this book down. My emotions where all over the place. At first I was devastated and crying so much to protect Jethro. But then I wanted to kill him I was so pissed at him. So when Nila had the chance to make him suffer not really intentionally but I couldn't helped enjoyed it. However, you get into Jethro's mind and understand his struggles you can't help to just love him all over again. I hurt so much for both him and Nila. He finally broke through his walls and let her in.

"We were both destroyed. And the only cure was to give in." Jethro

"I came here to be filled, taken, ridden. I came to find you again. I came to remind you of what we have. I came for so many reasons , Jethro, but most of all, I came to save you" Nila 

"You should know you’re it for me, Nila. There’s no turning back from this. I’m on your side until the end." Jethro

Kes was the perfect brother and friend. I freaking LOVED him on this book more so than the others. He truly stepped up to help Nila and Jethro. I truly hurt for him as well. They were powerless again their evil father and grandmother. Yes, that old bitch Bonnie, OMG I have so much anger right now....

Jethro and Nila were put through so much on this book. Again testing their true love. Nila had to pay the Third Debt in order for Jathro to take over. The events that happened during this debt were unbelievable. Like OMG what just happened?!. I was mad, I was excited, then happy, then mad. But nothing, absolutely nothing could of prepared me for that ending. I felt like I was watching a car wreck but there was nothing I could do to stop it. It was the most painful ending ever.

I hate Cut, Daniel and Bonnie, I want to use this on them lol 

I am still trying to wrap my mind about what I just read but I can't get my thoughts straight. I feel like it was all a dream that it never happened. Pepper, you truly gutted me but I still LOVED this because I felt so much and I didn't expect all this madness of events. Saying that I will stalk the author down to get the next two books ASAP because I just need answers. And because I have hopes that this ending is just a twisted game and that is not true. (a girl can just hope).

"A kiss was a disaster. A kiss was power. A kiss was love and togetherness and faith. It was so many, many things. But this… this was something so much more. More. I want more. I want everything" Jethro

5***Breathtaking Survivor Stars

Title: Beneath Blood And Bone

Author: Madeline Sheeran and Claire C. Riley

Genre: Dystopia/Romance/Zombie Apocalypse

Type:Companion series Book 2 of 3

POV: Dual

”We are no more than skin, blood and bone. When you take that away, nothing is left…I believe that beneath the blood and the bone, there’s a soul.” Eagle

Adler aka Eagle short for “E”, a thirty-six years old man who was broken and alone; the zombie apocalypse happened and his life went to hell. Everyone’s life had changed since the zombie infestation took over. He was surviving by blocking away his previews life; blocking his wife and two children that he once had and were now gone. He had so much guilt; he believed that if he would of never left them they would still be alive. However, the ugliest of the world continued and he just had to do whatever to stay alive. His heart was broken and was frozen cold; there was nothing for him to look forward to just survive but for what?! He did not know. He lost Evelyn on book one, he let her get away she had opened up feelings he couldn’t understand. “Wildcat” reminded him of his now dead wife, her looks were so similar he wanted to keep her. However; she left and now he was more angry and mad than ever. Eagle and Jeffers had built the “PURGATORY” when all hell broke loose; they set up the rules of the “safe place” the way they felt it had to be. Now, E was having second thoughts about everything he had done. He hated himself for not carrying or doing enough to help he was so broken he just didn’t care anymore. Everyone in the purgatory feared him; they knew never to mess with him. 

”The world was broken now and so were we, all of us haunted by the lives we once lived, the people we once were, by the losses we’d taken. We were damned to suffer through the save lives we were now forced to live.” Eagle

Autumn, a nineteen-year old girl; lived outside the Purgatory for over four years on her own. She survived in the wild after she was forced to kill her father when he got bitten and infected. She stayed hidden in a dark “CAVE” away from people. Surviving the best she could by eating anything and everything she could find and by making sure she was covered with her own filth; in other words “Poop” so that she would not attract the infected. The worst you smelled the less you will attract the zombies; they won’t even know you were near. Yeah picture that! Lol 

”Play dead, hide, stay away from others, and avoid the biters. Hush, hush, must keep quiet or they’ll hear you.” Autumn

She ran out of food and was desperate to find something to eat; she went out on a search and made the mistake of getting too close to the Purgatory and got caught. She was scared out of her mind; they were going to keep her and make her prostitute and use her. Somehow she managed to escape; however she got hurt during her escape and if it wasn’t because “E”; who was out hunting for food and found her she might have not survived. Eagle did not understand why on earth he decided to saved this girl when he never cared about anyone anymore. The entire situation was pretty funny; she was from the “wild” and had been isolated for so long that it was too funny to watch her and E. He was getting fed up with her growling like a squirrel and kept on shitting on herself to keep safe from the zombies. She did not want them to bath her. However, she had no choice when her life was in line; “E” took care of her and again he wasn’t sure why and could not explain it. I loved the way their relationship started to build up little by little. She started to become used to having a human body close by to protect her and she started to trust him. He branded her with his “EAGLE” tattoo so that no one would touch her; however there was one person that was not happy about this entire situation. “Olivia” she was together with Jeffers and was sleeping with E behind his back, she only wanted Eagle but he didn’t want her so she took whatever he would give her. He hated her, he hated himself for it but he only did it to cause pain and to receive pain he didn’t care about her or himself. I had so many mixed emotions about these two. I hated both of them for it, I really did.

Eagle and Autumn’s relationship was different for sure. She felt safe with him and he felt lighter with her around. He didn’t hear as many voices in his head when she was with him. He felt that he could change with her, be the person he once was before. Their first kiss was WOW! it left me breathless I was in heaven, it was just so beautiful. That one kiss changed the relationship fast, she wanted him and he wanted her; there was no going back. He did everything and anything to keep her safe. She had the opportunity to escape back to her CAVE but once there she knew she no longer wanted to be alone, once she felt his kiss she wanted more. So she returned to him. He found out she was out and had the chance to leave he was beside himself and oh how much I enjoyed that scene haha I loved it.

Life started to get easier and becoming a nice routine forAutumn and Eagle but they both knew it wouldn’t last. They tried to make the best of each day as if it was their last they wanted to enjoy each other’s company and the steamy scenes were amazing. I loved their chemistry and their silent understanding of each other’s pain. Olivia was so jealous that Eagle just didn’t want anything to do with her after he met Autumn. She did anything to get Autumn away from Eagle and tried to get her killed. The events that happened had me literally on the edge of my bed, I was freaking out and nervous. My belly hurt so much not knowing what was going too happened next. I was basically freaking out the entire time. Secrets came out, lots of angst and desperation; and the ending I was so happy this book ended the way it did. I think if it would have ended differently I would have literally lost it. I defiantly recommend this book and I will be reading the next one in the series even if I don’t understand why there will be a book of a character I absolutely despise so much I just hope that these two amazing authors are plotting her death on book three lol. The lord is truly testing me right now.

4***Bloody Mel Stars 

TITLE: Ruthless People

AUTHOR: J.J. McAvoy

GENRE: Mafia

TYPE: Book 1 of 3 Series

POV: Dual

“She was mine. She was all fucking mine….I was the king of the jungle, and the woman beside me was my queen.” Leam

This story takes place in the city of Chicago. Were three families stronger than all the rest in the mafia world are fighting to take control of their city. The Callahan, the Giovanni, and the Valero. 

Leam Alex Callahan was a cocky, gorgeous twenty seven year old man. His family had arranged his marriage when he was young with the Giovanni’s only daughter. The Callahan’s ruled Chicago and when they combined two of the most powerful families they were going to be unstoppable. Liam had green eyes, dark brown sex hair and a charming smile that melt every girl panties. His family was Irish and they could drink every day from dusk until dawn and still walk a straight line . Many feared Leam because he made himself well known. He was ruthless and cold blooded killer and wanted to earn the title his father was giving him. He was going to take over his father’s position once he marries. He was known as the “boogeyman of the east” because he was heart less and didn’t care what he had to do to get what he wanted. He had never met his “to be bride” before and he was not worried about it, just maybe a little bit but he just assumed she will be the shopping kind of girl that will stay at home. 

“Rule One: You kill for family. You die for family. Because you can’t trust anyone.” 
“Rule Two: Take no prisoners and have no regrets about it.” 
“Rule Three: Just because you sell drugs for a living isn’t an excuse not to dress well.” 
“Rule Four: No bloody divorce.”

Melody Nicci Giovanni was the only daughter of the Giovanni’s family. They were the most powerful family in Italy in the mafia world. She was the unknown “wicked witch of the west” but her man nicked named her “Bloody Melody” they all feared her. The world didn’t know she had stepped up and taken over her father’s empire. Her father was Ill with cancer and was going to die soon. He wanted to make sure she was married before that happened so they rushed the wedding. She was ruthless and savage and had been training since early age. She knew how to play the game and no one even thought what she was until they were put in front of her. She was twenty four years old with wavy black hair, flawless olive skin, deep brown eyes, and a bad as body to kill for. All the man drooled and lusted over her. 

“You, ma’am, are ruthless, and not a soul on this planet would dare cross you. You would put a bullet in our heads if we were ever disloyal to you or the family. You are the Boss,” Reply one of her man

Leam and Melody met each other just few days before their wedding. It was super hot because they fought like savage animals. At first he thought she was an ugly duck and when he saw her he knew he wanted her. He thought he could rule and controlled her but he was so damn wrong. She fought him as he stopped her killing and they had a ruthless kissing scene but he ended up with a shot on his leg, and both ended up with bruises, it was awesome really haha. They had to go to battle before the wedding and they ended up hooking up, like Damn! it was freaking hot. They got married and their sex was even hotter every single time. At first it was lust that they found on each other however the more time spent together the more they realized they are both lonely and they have been searching for someone like them the entire time. It was like they were both just meant to be because they both has no remorse of what they did for living and were ruthless that did not hesitate to kill whoever gets on their way. They both have found their perfect match. It was Leam who had to teach Mel how to love because she honestly had never felt love before so she was struggling, he handled her amazingly. Prompts to him to put up with her bossiness but again they were just both made perfectly for each other, I absolutely loved these two.

“You stand at my side. I stand at yours, and together we rule the East and the West, so much so that they’ll rename cities after us.” Leam

“May we be ruthless and have no regrets…May we take what we want, when we want it, with the world at out feet.” Mel

There was so much action and suspense going on through this story. A lot of deaths, fights, and the entire city were in chaos. People were dying front and right because the police was trying to catch The Callahan’s family and lock them down on top of that the Valero’s family was after them too. So the war was real. This book kept me on the edge constantly not knowing what was coming up next. There were so many surprises and secrets and I was speechless by the time I was done. The author was able to get you to love the entire Callahan family.

The story was told in Leam and Melody’s POVs however, we got multiple POVs from the family members, not much but I really enjoyed knowing a little bit more about them. After reading Declan (Leam’s cousin) and his wife Cora’s thoughts, I felt more understandable to what they were going thru. Also his brother Neal and wife Olivia, now they really touched me and I really wish they had their own book because I couldn't help hurting for them. Leam’s parents were awesome; I enjoyed learning about them a little more thru the father’s POV. We also get to know Mel’s private pro-filer Adriana; her story was crazy she was a total bad ass. I really liked her a lot and after reading what she went through and how Mel helped her out I had so much more respect for them both. I felt so attached to all these characters at the end of the book that I just can’t get enough. I will most defiantly be continuing this series.

My Rating: 4***~Gentle Mentor~ Stars

Title: The Gentleman Mentor

Author: Kendall Ryan

Genre: Contemporary Romance/Erotica

Type: Standalone book 1 of The Lessons

POV: Dual

”If you’re ready to reach new levels of pleasure, contact me at @thedominantgentleman. Serious inquiries only.” -X

This story was unique for me and it caught my attention from the very beginning. Brielle is a twenty six year old, hard worker, single woman; searching for help to try to attract her best friend that she has had a crushed on for five years. She wanted to win him over and needed help on doing so. After so many dates and failed relationships; she was giving up on love and needed guidance. Browsing the internet for dating sites she came across a very interesting ad “The Gentleman Mentor”. My first thought was “Where can I find one of those sites in my state?” haha. Ok the story. She gets nervous but she is intrigued about it and decides to give it a go. 

Brielle, was just looking for help on how to be confident in the bedroom department; so she meets with her mentor in hopes that he will be of help and worth her time and money. What she didn’t know was that Mr. Mentor was a hot piece of a man. He was tall, dark messy hair, with gorgeous mocha-colored eyes, he smelled delicious and all the sudden she was instantly attracted to this man who was supposed to help her reach her ultimate goal ”to attract the love of her life.” She instantly regretted her decision because it could turn out dangerous for her due to the instant chemistry they had; however she don’t want to give up that soon and decides to put any stupid feelings aside and accomplished what she paid for.

Cameron hale, a twenty-eight year old from Chicago, had a terrible love experience that left his heart shattered and broken. He worked in a law firm and was very well known. His hobby was to be a member of an underground BDSM club in Chicago and took mentoring as a side pleasure. He took it very seriously though, after his personal experience he never wanted to get attached to the woman he trained. The minute he meets Brielle his heart skipped a bit as well. He too was instantly attracted to this woman. He couldn’t understand why she wasn’t taken yet so it made it more interesting for him to teach her. He felts like he needed to do it more so for him not for her and he was going to enjoy their six classes together as much as he could.

What started as a teacher/student kind of thing escalated very quickly for the both of them. The very first lesson was intense he wanted her and she gave herself to him like she has never before. Never in her life has she had the experience he gave her in one lesson. She couldn’t stand the feelings and emotions this man was making her have. He too wanted to stay away but he couldn’t as much as he tried he just couldn’t. However, he ends up pushing her away though before the end of their last session he gives her the best night of her life and then goes and leaves her feeling like nothing. She thought that perhaps what she was feeling was mutual but he confused her by his actions and she felt like a fool. Later though she finds out he wasn’t actually running away because he didn’t feel anything for her but because of his past. Brielle decides to find out more about him and get into his world to understand him; she realized trying to win someone’s love was foolish. The best friend she believed she was in loved with was just an illusion; in fact she realized that there was nothing she really loved about him and wasn’t sure how on earth she didn’t see it. With Hale was different she knew he felt the same for her and she was going to make him understand that she is not like the person that broke his heart. Overall this was a sweat story it was not as intense as I was expecting it to be. I enjoyed all the characters and I loved the chemistry between Hale and Brielle. They ended up together and finding true love and a second change for the both of them.

My Rating: 4***~No one will miss The little girl lost~ Stars

Title: The Missing Volume I - Illusions

Author: A. Meredith Walters

Genre: Psychological/Thrillers

Series: Book 1 of 3

POV: First Person

“My brain was working in overdrive. Things weren’t making sense. Reality and fantasy were smashing together with the force of a freight train.” Nora

Nora Gilbert, a 20 year old girl; was born with a facial defect. A slight limp and scarring about her lip after her mother made her have surgery, but it was still there. Her mother made sure to remind her how ugly she was every day. She grew up feeling ugly, sad, depressed and not loved by either of her parents; she was insecure and shy. The awful mother hide her at times, she would lock her up in her room for days even. All this time her father would be out of town and ignored this when he was home. He tried to be a good father for her but failed miserably. He was never around always working and one day he never returned, her mother had said he had died so now she was completely alone. Her parents had adopted another girl “Rosie”, and she thought she would have a friend in her. However, Rosie was mean and evil just like her mother. 

“At least I can bear to look at you now.”Mother…“Her words were knives. Sharp and deadly. Straight to my gut. Buried deep where the wounds wouldn’t show.” Nora

Nora was so alone except for one person, her neighborBradley Somers,. They become friends at an early age, he saw what her mother did to her and he was angry he wanted to help her get out of that life. Nora and Bradley’s relationship was different. He was possessive of her and in a weird way I liked it, knowing she at least has someone who truly cared for her. However, he was also a bit creepy at times. Nora meets a new girl at the community college she was attending part time; she instantly liked her. Her name was Maren Digby, she had just moved to their town in Kansas and was going to the same school as Nora. However, Bradley did not approved of Maren or anyone. He did not trust people’s intentions and did not want Nora to suffer more than she already has.

”I was used to Bradley and his constantly fluctuating moods. Up and down. Like a roller coaster. He could make you smile and laugh, and in the next breath, make you cry and scream. He could be amazing. He could be the most terrifying thing in the world.” Nora

I loved how he would come to her bedroom at night especially on ”THURSDAYS” oh, what an awful day that was. I cried and I was mad and I just couldn’t understand what a monster of a mother would make her daughter go thru that. Basically her mother would take her to see the priest on Thursdays and do a purgatory for her sins because they believed she was an evil thing, a freaking “THING” because of the way she was born. She endured and tended to her damaged back each week after week and Bradley was always there for support. He hated to see that, he wanted to save her and I loved him for that. 

The story goes back and forth to the present and past. The present is where Nora is trapped in a room by herself in the dark with no recollection of who took her there or why. She has flashbacks to her life and tries so hard to find out what happened to her. This books is full of angst, suspense, is so twisted in a way because I am still trying to guess the mystery of who took her and why she is trapped alone in the dark. Her glasses were lost and she can’t see without them. The author really has this way of writing that gets so engaged in the story, as I’m reading I’m trying to find clues of what could have happened but it’s just so hard. I suspect it could of being the evil mother, or the evil sister, perhaps her new friend that we don’t know much about other that she loves to play the guitar and loved the song’s Nora would write. However, as I get to the ending I need book two because I need to know who she sees at the end. She is not alone on this misery and I am so intrigued I am going mad. I guess I will have to continue the series to find out this mystery.

*****WARNING: for all my romance loving friends; this is NOT a romance. Please remember that when you pick this up this book to read. It is a three part psychological thriller series!*****

Series: Standalone Companion Novella to Jezebel

POV: First Person

“LYING IN WAIT – the act of concealing yourself and lying in wait to attack by surprise.”

This novella is amazing and short that should be read immediately after reading Jezebel. It is told by Matteo’spoint of view. I absolutely devour this book, it was short but it held every answer to every question I had after finishingJezebel. I can’t tell you much because it will ruin Jezebel for you. However, I can tell you this author delivered perfectly with this book giving us everything that happened during the lost years of Jezebel. It gave me closure; yes if you were looking for the “HEA” well it is all right here. I couldn’t have imagined it. It was just EPIC. I knew I loved Matteo but man all the feelings and emotions on this story were so perfectly written I was madly in love with it. This was defiantly a finale twenty years in the making and I loved it from beginning to end.

5***~Nothing is what it seems ~Stars

Type:Contemporary Romance/Mystery/Suspense

Series: Standalone

POV: Third Person

“Now she had an inkling she’s been in bed with the devil.” Celeste

Annabelle Fortin, an 18 year old brat teenager, trying to revel against her parents Gavin and Monica Fortin. She wanted their attention and since she didn’t get it she used drugs, sex, and other extra activities in hope that her family would be the same; happy and full of love that they once were. Instead, she ends up getting in more trouble by drinking and driving and now she has to serve a six months probation of community service at an assisted living facility called “Glenview”. She was not trilled at the idea of having to be at a place where it smelled like old people and not only that her parents had more rules of their own; she was not allowed to have friends come over, or go out at all other than school and the assisting living. Her phone and electronics were taken away from her as well. She literally thought her life was over and felt completely lost.

 

Her first day at “Glenview” sucked, she hated being in the kitchen smelling ridiculous, she couldn’t wait for those six months to be over. She was close to graduating high school and her goal was to go away to college and away from her sad family who didn’t acknowledge her presence whatsoever. She basically lived as a ghost at her house, no one would talk to each other, her mother and father stopped talking to each other ever since her brother was killed in a hit and run accident eight years ago. I felt so bad for Annabelle; I cried so much reading this book, because of her sadness and how lonely and miserable her life had become. The loss of her brother became the loss of her family; it left her and her family broken.

On her second visit at “Glenview” she meets Jezebel. A beautiful woman suffering from dementia, she decides to stay with her for that day instead of heading to the kitchen. There was something about Jezebel that intrigued Annabelle, she liked her and she wanted to know her more. On that first day with her, she asked Jezebel to tell her story. However, Jezebel told her she didn’t have a story to tell but her friend Celeste?! oh boy her story was one she didn’t want to miss.

 

”Remember kid, the devil is in the details”. Jezebel

For six months Annabelle visited Jezebel once a week to fulfilled her probation. Soon she realized that spending time with Jezebel wasn’t so bad, in fact she looked forward to chatting with her each week. Jezebel told a story of her friend Celeste; that story she said was worth listening to. I had to agree, Annabelle was so intrigued, upset, anxious and waiting for more of this story. I was basically flying through the pages to know what will happen to the girl on Jezebel’s story. This was such a different kind of book for me, it was narrated by a third person; it told the story of Annabelle and thru Jezebel’s eyes it told the story of her young friend Celeste in Paris. She explained Celeste’s first love, her first kiss, her many years of love and then lot of mystery and angst. I was completely immerse on this story, it was like I was reading two books in one going back in time and in the present, it was amazing.

Annabelle’shome life was hell; her mother left her and her father. She abandoned them and she just couldn’t understand why they couldn’t love her; she was still alive and needed them too. I was so broken for this girl. She would write to her brother on her diary; something Jezebel had advised her to do and since she didn’t have anything else to keep her busy or anyone else to talk to; well so she wrote.

“Brant, I hate you right now, too. I hate you for leaving me here alone to deal with this. I hate…””Her family living under the same roof but existing in two different worlds…”Annabelle

I was so upset and sad again. Her parents never even showed up to her graduation or even acknowledged it. Jezebel and Annabelle’s relationship was wonderful I loved it. Belle will use Jez advised and started to make her sad home life different; better, much happier. 

“Dear, what defines a person is how well they rise after falling down.”…“Be the noise, be the light. Be the laughter. It’s contagious…A smile is the best make-up you can wear.” Jezebel

She started to learn how to be happy and grow on her own with her friends and she even met a boy she liked and started dating; her life was finally where she wanted it to be. She was heading off to college and had to see Jezebel one last time because she had to know how her friend’s story ended. I wanted to know too, I was going mad and out of my mind wondering how this was going to end. The story of Jezebel’s friend Celeste kept getting better and better on each visit, there was so much more to it. It was full of secrets, suspense, and mystery. The super happy sweet love story that Jez had pictured at the beginning wasn’t as happy as it seemed. I was so intrigued in this suspense, romantic story just as Annabelle was and the suspense was basically killing me. Annabelle goes to see Jezebel one last time and finds out the way the story ends. She was so disappointed and so was I, I just couldn’t believe it. Then the author goes and twists the final pages into an “EPIC” finale that I was totally not prepared for. I mean I was looking for the“WTF” “MIND FUCK” part of the book, as much as I tried to guess I just couldn’t and never had seen it coming. My mind was blow away; I think I am still shocked at what happened. If you want to know what the mystery of this ending is you just have to read it. I am telling you it was well worth it.

***Side note: Be sure to have the short 88 pages novella ready to read right after you finish this book, trust me you will NEED IT, or you will go cray cray...just saying hehe lol***

5***I LOVE “MY” BLACK WOLF STARS

Series: The Black Wolf is the 5th book of “In The Company of Killers series”. 
This series MUST be read in order.
Type: The Best Romantic Thriller/Suspense Series

POV: Multiple

“I do whatever I want…because I’m my own person. And I’ll fight for whatever I need to make me whole. Whoever I need to make me whole.” Niklas

Niklas Fleischer, was born in the Order the same as his brother Victor but he knew he didn’t want that life; He did not want to be an assassin, he wanted to be “FREE” and not have to respond to anyone. At an early age he wanted to leave and escape but the love for his brother was much stronger, so much that he knew he couldn’t leave without him so he decided to stay and prove that he could become strong and good as his brother. He was the only family he had, Victor had killed his father to protect him.

“Victor was a natural, a machine, he took to everything as innately as an infant learning to crawl….I knew I would never be as good as Victor no matter how hard I tried,” Niklas

Niklas can’t forgive his brother from murdering the love of his life; a woman he had fallen in love with on an assignment. He felt betrayed by his own brother who he always trusted and thought he would never do anything to hurt him. He was hurt and I hurt so much for him. He covered under a hard mask, a bad boy who fuck and smoke and didn’t care shit what people thought about him but beneath it all he was amazing. I loved Niklas since the beginning of the series but this book just sealed the deal for me. 

“I believed him when he told me that night that he’d never do anything to cause me harm. I believed him with my whole life and my whole heart and my whole goddamned soul.” Niklas

This book focuses mainly on Niklas; however so many things happen as usual this author brings out so many twist and turns had me thinking about my sanity by the time I was done and wanting more. Victor only trusts his brother to carry this assignment, no matter how hurt Niklas was about what he did; he knew that Niklas will risk his life to protect his love “Izabel”. Victor’s weakness has always been his brother and now it was Izabel the only way he will let her go is with Niklas at her side. 

“When I look at you, I see Niklas as that boy all over again, and I will not let you follow me into misery the way I let my brother….I know no other man with more loyalty and heart, than my brother” Victor

Victor sends Izabel and Nora; Two badass female assassins to find Niklas and ask to come with them on this assignment, he was the only one that could pull it off. The mission was to find Olivia Bram, she was abducted seven years ago; they needed to purchase her and send her back to the United States. Then they had to capture Francesca Moretti an evil, sadist woman who they knew took the girl and deliver her to Olivia’s father to deal with her in his own way. However, things did not worked as they planned so many things happened while they were in Italy my head was spinning. I was nervous, anxious; I was sad, mad it was just insane. 

While Niklas, Izabel and Nora were on their mission;Victor Faust and Fredrik Gustavsson were dealing with other business in the order; They lived at Boston headquarters running an Underground assassination organization. Victor’s priority was to get Vonnegut; resolved things in his Order, how much can Nora be trusted?; makes sure Izabel ability to be a part of the Mexico mission; and find out if his brother is in or out. He sure was on top of everything and I’m in awe of him but I have the same questions or more by the time the book ended I have millions of questions. Dorian Flynn, well also part of the Order betrayed them. And what happened I did not see it coming and I was devastated at first but then after reading farther on the reasoning behind Victor’s decision I understood why he did things the way he did. He is so smart I love him I wish there was more of him on this book and Fredik but this was Niklas book and boy did I enjoyed it, no, I freaking loved every second of it.

I loved everything about this book. How Niklas was a human after all, he just pretended he didn’t care but inside he cared a lot. I love how he freaking loved his brother no matter what, I know he resents him and who knows if he will ever forgive him but I know he loves him. I loved the relationship he had with Izabel and how he protected her and called her “Izzy”. The way he fucked “Nora” just to make a point and them both loved it. I cried so much for his pain, for his childhood, for the freedom he always wanted and for the love he never got. But overall I loved the fact that he was amazing on this book. A complete badass assassin, he took control and over the mission and I everything he did was amazing in my eyes. This book was everything I look for on a book and more. I want more and will be counting the days for the next book in the series. This is not a series with happy endings and sweet roses. I recommend this to anyone looking for a good romantic thriller full of action, suspense, surprises, and is not afraid of people dying.

“To be human means to always go with your heart. The moment you betray your heart is the moment you lose everything.” Victor

“I choose you,…And I choose this life, Victor. And I’m not doing any of this because of you. It’s what I want.” Izabel

5***Kick Ass Pistol Lips ~ Revenge ~ Stars

Series: Standalone Dark Contemporary Romance

Release Date: July 9, 2015

POV: Multiple

“You’ve ignited a flame inside of me, Pistol Lips….I will obliterate any mother fucker who lays a hand on you again. I’d kill for you.” Nick

Three year ago Nick Riley had almost been killed with a bullet to his skull and his family was killed in front of him. Ever since, he had never been the same. Now at twenty eight years of age, he is finally ready to put in place the revenge he had been planning for so long with the help of Alec. He had made a promise and he was going to keep it. He lived and survived for only one purpose “revenge”; to vengeance the deaths of his family. He knew who was responsible and he was going to make them all pay. 

Michael Culling was the Mayor of the City of Detroit, the most powerful man in the city. He was evil and basically had the entire city under his hands. Even Chief Cox was under him doing his dirty work. There was a gang “Seven Mile Crew” known as contract killers; they were responsible for the death of Nick Riley’s wife Lena and his 5 year old son Jay but it was Michael Culling who they received the orders from. Nick & Alec have a plan; to find and kill every man who was at the scene of the crime of his family and by taking Culling’s most precious love; his wife Aubree Culling. He kidnaps her and keeps her hostage until his vengeance is for field.

Aubree Culling was married to a sadist bastard, he was cruel and evil. She grew up with hardly any money but with a loving family. She liked helping others and was studying to help kids with special needs or that had been traumatized in some physical or mental way. As an art teacher, she was able to help them draw and try to create a better picture for all the ugliest in the world. She had been trying to run away from her psycho husband for five years, she was basically living in a cage in the form of Michael’s power. No matter how she tried she never succeeded. 

“Cage a bird that once felt the wind through its feathers and the world beneath is feet, and you’d find that insane glint of hope in its eyes that enticed it to escape every time the door swung open. Even if it could no longer fly, it’d never stop vying for its freedom, and neither would I.” Aubree

Nick Riley suffer from blackout because of the bullet hit to his head and the trauma he went thru. He lives with the memory of that horrible day that has been hunting him. The visions, dreams and memories of his wife and especially of his son broke my heart so much. I sobbed like a baby for all his pain, for the beautiful family he once had and now was gone. While he keeps Aubree as a prisoner, he was not expecting to have any feeling of any sort for the wife of his family’s killer. He was conflicted with wanting to kill her and feeling attracted to her. He discovers that she in fact was a victim of Michael and not part of the evil that was Michael. Oh I cried again for Aubree too, for her cruel and sad past and for everything Michael did to her. There were so many emotions going thru me while reading this book. I was excited, nervous, anxious, sad, and loved the chemistry that ended up developing between Nick and Aubree.

He takes care of her once he found out the truth about her past and who she really was. They both get close to each other. Aubree sees his pain and he sees hers and they both wanted to make each other better. Aubree has some fears to conquer but Nick managed to help her fight those fears. Nick has some demons himself but Aubree also managed to break thru them and accepts him as he is. They are both such a great strong survivors I loved everything about them.

“Every scar told a story, but it was the ones we didn’t want others to see that told a truth.” Nick

“Apart, we were nothing more than two broken halves, but together, our jagged edges fit perfectly, sealed into something whole again.” Aubree

Once both of them gave into the chemistry that is pulling them together; HOT smoking scenes made my heart beat so hard but for so many other reasons and I find myself loving every single moment of it. 

“Light exploded behind my eyes, rippling through my body like an aftershock. Blinding pleasure trailed it, coating my hot muscles trailed it, coating my hot muscles with a cook tingle that left me numb, weakened. I called out his name, and when he pulled out of me, his body shuddered, breaths broken by moans and curses.” Aubree

“She felt small and right, her curves pressed into my body in all the right places. Together, our bodies melded perfectly, like two halves of a whole. Paired with her words from moments ago, a realization struck me. We fit the only way two fucked up people could possibly fit together.” Nick

I loved Alec, he was such an amazing character. Even though he was not in the entire book I enjoyed him every time he showed up, he was perfect in my eyes. He was always keeping Nick in line and telling him what he needed to hear without bullshit. 

The events after Nick and Aubree finally decided they wanted to enjoy what they had while it lasted; had me so nervous, it was like watching an accident about to happen in slow motion but at the same time you have no idea how it will end. So many things the author brought up that had me speechless. I can’t tell you enough how much I loved this book. Ever since I saw Lana’s review a while back I knew I had to read this book no matter what and then I saw the cover and that sealed the deal; however nothing prepared me for this amazing experience. This story had me hooked on the edge of my bed from beginning to the end. It was an absolute page turner and emotional roller coaster ride. I went thru all the feelings you could possible feel, it was EPIC. Yes this book wasEPIC and everyone who loves a good action, suspense, erotic and dark book should defiantly read this. This was my first book by Keri Lake and I can tell you it will not be my last.

“I saw darkness in her beauty, and she saw beauty in my darkness.” Nick

5***Heart Broken “PUP” Stars

“My fucking heart is broken,”…”Will you remember something for me?” “Remember that I love you.” King

"Brantley King" was 12 years old when he met his best friend“Samuel Clearwater” aka “Preppy” who was only 11 yrs old himself. They both wanted out of their miserable family they were given. King’s mom was a drug junkie and he basically had to care for himself until he decided to run away from it. Preppy’s step father was an absolute ass hole who abused Preppy so bad I wanted to kill him myself. Now the boys are grown man who grew up making their own rules and living by their own laws doing illegal things to survive. King was 27 yrs old and Pretty 26 now. They both killed if it was necessary and started selling drugs and other illegal things at young age in order to make money and make their “dreams” come true. At a young age they thought they were on top of the world, parting a lot and enjoying what life they were making together. King was great with art and he started doing tattoos from his house practicing on himself, Preppy and Bear (a friend they met at young age at school).

"Well you are partially right. Because when it comes to me and mine, I am the judge. I am the jury. And if need be, I am the motherfucking executioner." King

“Doe” aka “PUP” or “Ray”, a seventeen year old girl lost with no memory, living in group homes or on the streets; founds Nikki, someone who she thought could helped her. After having an accident and losing her memory, Doe now had no one and took shelter with Nikki. However her new friend was a junkie and didn’t care about anything else other than her next fix. Doe had no recollection of her previews life, and there was no missing person report matching her description; that left her lonely with nothing and no one. Nikki takes her to a party and the goal was for Doe to attempt to sell herself for protection and shelter to one of the MC bikers. What she didn’t know was that this wasn’t just any party it was a “Welcome Party” for King. He had just being release from prison after being incarcerated for three years. She hadn’t eaten for days so she was bound to do whatever it takes to survive even if that meant selling her body.

"Desperate people. Desperate things." Doe

 

“Bear” a hot biker who is best friends with King and Preppy; and the Vice president for his father’s MC club the “Beach Bastards”. He meets Doe first at the party and wants her for himself but he wanted to give his best friend a welcome back gift and sends her over to KING. This changed the story entirely, Doe and King didn’t realized that there was going to be a magnetic chemistry between the two that will pull them together and change their lives forever.

King takes Doe in after finding out who she was and he wanted to keep her for his own benefit. However he decides to keep the secret to himself. Preppy saw the connection between these two and wanted to push King’s buttons so he would step up and claim Doe and hopefully be happy. He was amazing and funny, I loved him so much. Preppy becomes good friends with Doe in the little time she came to live with them. He would make her pancakes every day and made her eat, she loved him for it. He wanted to take her out on a date as a friend but I think, he wanted to see King’s reaction and pushed him so it worked. King ended up taking her on his very first date; he never did dates so this was his first. And oh boy it was everything a first date should be; he was amazing he took her to the carnival “Neon lights, carnival music, corn dog and cotton candy stands” just perfect. They had this amazing HOT kiss on the Ferris Wheel it was super cute for KING really. He gave her the first tattoo she’s ever had and it was just perfect and beautiful. 

“As King branded my skin, I embraced the girl whose life was just beginning. I embraced life. My life. King filled me so completely. Not just my body. My heart. My soul. My life. I didn’t give a shit if I ever got my memory back. Because with King, I knew exactly who I was. I was his.” Doe

He wanted to stop the feelings he was getting for her so he pushed her away purposely trying to make out with someone else when they got back from their date. I was a so upset omg…I was beyond angry at him. However, the angry sex helped me calmed down a bit and it up for it lol. He ended up claiming her and she opened up to him and they both gave into each other. 

“We get this one life. One. As of right this fucking second, I’m no longer going to spend it doing anything other than what I want to do. I don’t want to grow old and look back and realize that I may have had a life, but I forgot to live it.” King

The events after they finally became a couple shred me to pieces. He confessed his dark secrets to her but still keep the secret of who she really was to himself but I melted for him at that point. Something horrible and unexpected also happens right at 86% of the book that I can’t even bring myself to write because I don’t want to give any spoilers. I was so broken and a complete mess from then up until the end. The ending was completely unexpected and now I have more questions than ever. I wish book two was already out because this waiting is going to kill me. However, I did read the epilogue for book two I had to, like there was no way this book could possibly end like this so it gave me a little hope and now to count down the days for book two. This was my very first book by this author and I can assure you it will not be my last. I am looking forward to more of her writing.

“There was no doubt in my mind if something like soulmates did exist that Doe was mine…I think a part of me loved Doe from the first moment my eyes landed on hers. Haunted, beautiful, scared. I wanted her, body and soul.” King

“King was a bad guy, but he was my bad guy. He was more than that. He was my world. My heart. These people may have known who I was before, but I knew who I was now, and the two versions of me were going to have to figure out how to merge before I uprooted what I had with King in search of something unknown.” Doe

5*** "Sweetpea & Rainbow" Stars

The minute a book starts with a warning I immediately know I will like. And this was no exception.

This story was a fantastic, emotional, & suspenseful roller coaster ride. When you think you figured something out the author goes and twist things around and leaves you with your mind browned away. 

The opening of this book had me in tears. I mean seriously I was a complete mess, my chest hurt so much I couldn't stop the tears from falling off my face. Once I was able to put myself together and see clearly through my watery eyes I was able to focus reading and I just couldn't stop. The story went by so fast it kept me on the edge and I did not want to stop.

Georgie was 16 years old when she met Deck (his brother's best friend). She fell in love with him ever since but their love was just impossible. Conner, her brother disappeared and all this time she thought he was dead. She suffered for 10 years over the death of her brother and not only because of that but something dark happened to her that left her broken and damaged. She completely covered her damaged heart and mind with lies pretending she was someone she was not so that Deck & her loved ones would never find out her dark secrets. 

She used pain to walk away strong to cope with shit that fucked with her head. She used the physical pain in order to deal with her emotions. Flirting and pretending was the only way to hide her darkest secrets. 

Deck felt protected over her ever since he met her. However, he left for two years after her brothers death to try to stay away from her. He needed the distance to keep the promise he made to her brother that he will never be intimate with her. He promised to protect her but when he returned he realized she changed. He never on his wildest dreams could have ever imagined what made her changed so much. And me either when the author revealed it I was in stocked. I totally was not expecting that at all.

Deck realized she needed help and he was bound to get thru her lies and find the real Georgie no matter what the consequences. 

"…fuck Connor. Fuck everything. She was mine now, and I was never letting her go." Deck

There was so many lies, so many emotions, so much suspense, I was basically devouring every minute of it. 

But more than that we had lots of sexual tension between Georgie and Deck. At first it was tension but right about 47% it was madness. Holy freaking HOT and erotic scenes. I needed a fan the rest the book, it was an amazing chemistry between these two it was ridiculously HOT. It was more than just sex it was need, passion, and pure LOVE.

The suspense and action after they finally gave into each other and what was always meant to be had me chewing my nails and freaking out. My heart beat wouldn't slow down, I felt like my stomach was in my throat and I was having trouble breathing.

Deck and Georgie finally decided that no matter how hard the truth hurt they will never lie to each other. Their love was beautiful and so real. Deck was able to help Georgie's brokenness with his love and his HARD and delicious fucking. Yeah it was not so sweet sometimes it was HARD and FAST and absolutely amazing. He was a complete Dom and she loved it. Georgie realized it was exactly what she needed to break thru her damaged mind. He made her whole again. 

"My insides went haywire as he strode toward me. Could a body be set into flames from a mere look? Yes. Hell yes, we were talking about Deck here." Georgie

"Now, I knew, and I realized the tightness in my chest was gone. She was mine. Completely. Looking at her now, it wasn’t painful like it had been for years. Now, it was …freedom. For today—tomorrow. For-fuckin-ever." Deck

"Georgie was the good in me. Without her, I was sure I’d sink into the darkness of my mind and never emerge. She gave me the light to keep coming back. To crawl away from the evil I was surrounded by, the nightmares, the coldness, and she made me human again." Deck

 

"We’d always been meant for one another. Our paths had been running parallel for so long, trying to cross, yet the ghost of Connor and Robbie and even Kai kept us apart." Georgie

My Deck

My Georgie

We get to see a bit of Kai and I was a mess again. Like struggling so hard to write this review, so emotional. My heart hurts for him, for Connor, for Tanner, for London and for all the innocents that were before them.

I do love the fact that we got to see all the characters from Tear Asunder at the end it was a fabulous ending to this book until the very last sentence...seriously?! ...gawd...OMG...I need book 2 NOW!!

5***Beautiful Melting ICE Stars

”Crisis was like a leech that kept sucking the blood out of me, but it wasn’t blood, it was my coldness. It was as if he was the heater turned on high and I was the block of ice that was slowly melting“ Haven

This book takes place in the city of Toronto. Haven Dedrick, the twin sister of Ream which we met on book two of these series; was rescued from her captures and now was learning how to adjust and survive her new life. She has so many demons to fight after twelve years of being a slave to drugs and man using her. She hid at her brother’s farm for a while, protecting her shattered soul with coldness and emptiness. Her past made her hard and she learned to survive blocking the world around her. She wanted to do something with her life now and be normal. Learning how to drive and getting a job and going to school to get a degree was one of those things she wanted to do. Everyone helped her and didn’t pushed her even thought they knew she needed therapy but she refused to talk to anyone.

The only way she knew how to cope was by running; running helped her demons disappear only temporarily. The memories were so strong, the pain, the dark was so deep. I basically bawled my eyes off. She would have panic attacks but try to ignore them.

Vincent Wesson aka Crisis, the bass guitarist of the hit rock band Tear Asunder had a soft spot for Haven. He was the player, the one all the girls fantasize with but with her he felt different. Even though he was the flirt one, the man whore she knew he was also so Hot, Tatted Skin, muscles, blond curly hair, blue eyes and charismatic. He was a total rock star. However, he became friends with Haven. He wanted to help her, he saw her meltdowns and held her and wanted to be there for her. He made a deal with her that while they were on tour that they will text every single day. She felt blacked mailed because she knew if she didn’t agree with, he will tell her brother which she didn’t want to worry him more. In a way he did black mailed her but their innocent texting became so much more when he returned from tour.

”You will break. One day that cool exterior you’re hiding behind will shatter. It has to. It has nowhere to go. And when it does happen, I intend to be there to help you pick up the pieces.“ Crisis

He did everything in his power to break her ice and help her. He even went with her to a karaoke night that her friends invited them to. He made her sing with him and it was EPIC. I freaking loved it so much.

”I craved her attention. It was my drug. She was my drug and I wanted her to share with me the one thing I loved more than anything – music,….Our voices instantly entwined in perfect harmony and from the subtle eyes widening, I knew she was just surprised as me.” Crisis

He would show up at her school and sit with her in class, this entire friendly relationship was exactly what Haven needed and somewhere they both fell hard for each other; but she was afraid to open up to anyone until one day she broke. Freaked out so bad everyone panicked; that’s when she finally let him in and confessed her dark secrets and damn I was a bubbling mess again. And at the same time I loved Crisis so much. He was her rock he was always there and I loved him for that so freaking much. They finally gave into their chemistry and oh boy the waiting was so well worth it. Crisis completely made me melt for him. He was the best for her.

”There were no words as we both panted and stared at one another before our mouths crashed together. And it was a crash. It was teeth hitting, and noses getting in the way and lips crushed. “ Haven

There was drama with a "fan" that was obsessed with Crisis, so Ream her twin brother was not very happy at first about their relationship but he finally realized Crisis was perfect for her and he was helping her. There were other events that I was completely shocked and not expecting at all but made this story so much more perfect, the suspense of who was trying to hurt Haven and all the security and drama around was great. I loved this story so much. The author delivered beautifully, she gave us a love romance, with dark secrets, a suspense and angst plot, super funny scenes and most of all a beautiful healing and sweet ending.

”I was swimming in an ocean of black, unable to find my way back to shore. I didn’t know whether I’d sink to the bottom or if I’d have enough strength to read water until shore found its way to me. But I had a life jacket. I had Crisis. And if I sank to the bottom, I knew I’d lift back up – to him.”Haven

”Haven. You’re perfect. You’re my perfect. And I’m yours.“ Crisis
