Synopsis

-Tinks-

From the moment I befriended him, I set a conspiracy in motion.

A revolution.

Kill Peter Pan.

And I was their ultimate weapon.

I was also none the wiser, falling hopelessly and irrevocably in love with him as the years went by.

Just as they hoped I would.

But their plan comes to a screeching halt when Peter vanishes into thin air, something I’ll learn has nothing to do with Rosewood at all.

You see, Peter never truly loved me…because he loved a wench instead.

He lied to me, he used me, he left me, and he broke me.

Forever altering me in ways that incite revenge when Hook sweeps in with revelations and the ultimate truth.

Peter may have turned his back on me, but in the end, he and his precious little Wendy will choke on every last tear I once shed.

And I’ll have Hook to thank for that.

-Hook-

It’s no secret I always despised Peter Pan.

A common threat amongst the factions, I should’ve killed him when I had the chance, long before he sank his claws deep into Tinksley’s heart.

But his death at my hands wasn’t what the plan called for, despite how I felt for her.

I’d always been drawn to the girl, innocently enough at first…until that vile abomination marked her with his stamp, unleashing a sense of propriety I had no rights to.

Didn’t matter—he had her…and I wanted her.

Then like magic, he disappeared.

I thought my time had come, but the road to owning Tinksley’s heart comes with a price.

A price so dark and depraved it strips her of her purity and awakens the beast within.

All because of the truth.

Sometimes, there is honor in revenge, and it will be my utmost pleasure to watch as Peter Pan finally meets his maker.

His maker who will soon be my Queen.

My Thoughts 💭

This was a wonderfully written and dark retelling! Hook is bae! Lol! No seriously he was hawt and everything Tink didn’t realize she needed in her life. Tink started off kind of naive but her fierceness came out and I enjoyed it. I enjoyed this story and I can’t wait for the next book!

Jeremy
I had everything once. A military career I loved, a family, a future.
I threw it all away.
Now I live my life alone, and every day make amends for what I did by accepting what I can never have again. Brotherhood, purpose, love… it’s not in the cards for me and that’s no one’s fault but mine.
Then she walks in with her wild hair and her gorgeous spirit.
She’s been through hell and I should be the last person she runs to.
So why do I keep doing all I can to keep her close?
Jordyn
I used to be loud, outgoing, friendly. I had friends and plans, I had the life I thought I wanted.
When they took everything from me, it was all I could do to just try and survive. Friendship, relationships, love… I couldn’t even consider the possibility when I didn’t know where my next meal would come from.
I should be running in the opposite direction from the sexy bartender with the haunted eyes and devastating grin.
I shouldn’t be agreeing to work for him. I definitely shouldn’t be agreeing to live with him.
He says he’ll keep me safe.
If only I knew if he meant from himself.

Review: Kiss The Sky by Elizabeth Briggs

Length:226 pages

Published: July 31, 2018

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis

To unlock her powers she must mate with four sexy dragon shifters. One down, three to go…

I’m done hiding. I’ve stopped running. And I’ve finally accepted my destiny—to take four dragon shifters as my mates so I can become the next Black Dragon, the wielder of all the elements.

I’ve already bonded with Jasin, my smoldering soldier, and soon I’ll be getting intimate with Auric, my lofty prince, Slade, my grounded blacksmith, and Reven, my frosty assassin. Only then can we become powerful enough to stop the current Dragons, the overlords of our world.

But as we continue our journey, secrets are uncovered about my mates that make me question everything, even as things heat up between us. Yet the greatest secret of all lies in my own past—and it might destroy us completely.

My Thoughts 💭

The second book was just as interesting as the first. I enjoyed reading. Kira has some doubts about becoming the black dragon. She learns something shocking about her parents.

Auric and Jasin working together for Kira was hot. Slade and Reven are kind of coming around and it’s cute. I’m ready for them to be all in!

I’m interested to find out who Kira’s dad is!

Review: Duncan’s Pride by Xyla Turner

Length:136 pages

Published: October 5, 2019

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis

Portia:

I can handle it, I said.

Duncan can handle it, I said.

We can handle it, I said.

Shit, we can’t handle it. We said…

Duncan:

Portia had this undeniable belief that the two of us having a child would be a good thing. She had no evidence to confirm these suspicions, but I had first-hand experience. Therefore, I charted what having children would mean for my mental sanity. The percentage was low. It was especially low for my wife.

Also, I did not factor twins into the calculations.

—

Author’s Note: This is a novella and readers should read Book 1, Trent and must read Book 2: Duncan as those characters are heavily intertwined into Duncan’s Pride. Cameos by Mr. Vega and Faith, Trent and Bernie. Also, this book, specifically the Hero, is a bit different than a typical Xyla Turner book. It is IR, BWWM, and HEA, but Duncan is a different kind of perfect. I hope you give him another chance.

My Thoughts 💭

This was a sweet read! Duncan and Portia have twins and both of them have their own meltdowns. I still love Portia and Duncan! This was a really good addition to their story! I can’t wait to read the next book!

Review: Stroke The Flame by Elizabeth Briggs

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Synopsis

Four sexy dragon shifters. A huntress with a dark past. A bond that could save the world.

I’ve spent my entire life running from my past and staying out of trouble. That’s how I’ve kept alive ever since my parents were killed by the Black Dragon, who’s ruled the world under her oppressive talons for as long as anyone can remember.

But it’s hard to keep a low profile when four handsome strangers turn up in your village claiming you’re destined to save the world. According to them, they’ve been chosen by the gods to become elemental dragons—and I’m their mate.

Which means one day I’ll be the most powerful dragon of all, able to control all four elements. Assuming I can unlock my powers first…by getting intimate with each of my sexy mates.

Auric, the clever prince. Jasin, the cocky soldier. Slade, the protective blacksmith. Reven, the mysterious assassin. And me. We’re the only ones who can bring balance to the world and overthrow the Black Dragon—if she doesn’t tear us to shreds first.

STROKE THE FLAME is the first book in a new steamy reverse harem fantasy series.

My thoughts 💭

This was a great start to the series! There’s action and dragons! Kira is no pushover and will fight if necessary. I adored Auric and Jasin! They were all for finding Kira and being her mate. Slade and Reven are in denial and standoffish but hopefully that ends soon. Everyone is keeping secrets and it is kind of cute how they’re all cautious with each other and their mission.

Review: Dragon’s Tears by Eva Chase

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Synopsis

Discovering you may be the last dragon shifter alive—and that you’re destined to take four hot alpha shifters as your mates—can throw a girl for a bit of a loop. But now that Ren is getting her powers and her enemies under control, her confidence is growing. A little hike into the mountains to uncover her mother’s last secret seems like no big deal with her guys by her side.

Too bad life has other plans. The farther Ren goes, the more other secrets surface. Secrets that threaten the fragile peace between the shifters and the fae. Secrets that could destroy the bond Ren’s forming with her mates. With unexpected enemies around every corner, it’ll take all her newfound strength to survive the fray.

*This is the second book in a steamy reverse harem paranormal romance series intended for readers 18+. Expect sexy situations, intense action, ongoing storylines, and a quartet of alluring wolf, bear, jaguar, and eagle alpha shifters you’ll wish you could make your mates.*

My Thoughts 💭

I’m enjoying Ren’s journey. She’s showing she’s not one to take foolishness no matter who it’s from. Aaron and Nate are the only ones she’s mated with so far so they’re okay. Marco and West are jerks but they’re her jerks I guess. I can’t wait to see how they respond to the attack on Nate’s estate.

Excerpt
“Hey, Christene. Wait up!” 

I stopped mid-step, and my heart stuttered.

That voice. I’d remember that voice anywhere. Thick. Deep.
Sexy. 

It’d been months since I heard him or seen him in person.
I’d viewed every movie he’d made, watched every YouTube video of his
interviews, and listened in on my sister’s conversations with her boyfriend
just to hear what was going on in his life. 

My pulse ticked up in tempo. Tick. Tick. Tick.
Like a bass drumming on the inside of my wrists. 

I froze, took a deep breath, composed myself, and turned
around ever so slowly to find Jordan Ryder—the highest-paid actor in show
business, Hollywood’s hotshot, America’s it guy—staring right
back at me. 

He was also Cade’s adopted brother. Yep. My sister’s
boyfriend’s brother. 

He blew out a breath of smoke and then flicked his cigarette
to the side. A sizzle of electric energy surged between us, just like that very
first day I’d met him months ago.

I took a step forward, and as though the world had suddenly
tilted on its axis, I lost my footing. In slow motion, as if I were in The
Matrix, my legs gave out, and I saw the ground, the gum on the concrete,
the cracks in the foundation. One knee hit the concrete before I felt a pair of
strong hands reach out to steady me.

My hands fell to his hips, and I thanked the heavens above
that I hadn’t totally wiped out. I thought I had been saved, saved by an angel.
But just when I was about to pull myself up, my other knee gave out, and I
face-planted. Not on the ground, but into his crotch.

Oh. My. God.

When I tried to push myself to a standing position, pain
seared through my scalp. Because, like on an episode of America’s
Funniest Home Videos, I realized my perfect curls were stuck on his belt
buckle.

“One second,” Jordan said.

Is he laughing?

Shit. Shit. Shit. He is.

I started reading when the fifty shades phenomenon happened a few years ago. I have read hundreds of books since then and a story playing around in my head for quite a while. I finally got it out and published and I’m so proud of my first baby. It has many flaws, but it was my first. I’ve written four since and with each one I’ve grown. I’m more proud and in love with the characters and their stories. There will be many more to come. I love writing!

Title: Good Intentions: Volume One 

Available on Amazon





Ana Balen was born in Zagreb, Croatia, where she still lives with her husband, their son (read boss!) and the son’s pet rabbit named Shhh! (or some other gibberish that’s the favorite of their son for the day.)
She spends her days driving her husband up the wall (when he can’t get her ass up from the bed in the mornings), reading and daydreaming, or following orders from a three-year-old. In the hectic life she leads (and loves every second of it), she never thought about writing. But, then one day a name popped in her head, then, the snippets of things, and she sat down and started typing. Next thing, she wrote a book. And now, she’s about to release her third!
