Ghost by Lyla Oweds review!

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis

My abilities are growing every day. But thanks to my new friends, I know that I’m not insane.

Even so, there’s a darkness inside me. It’s been getting stronger. A reality that I’ve been trying to avoid.

Being near the boys draw it out. Being close to them also make me unafraid for the first time in my life.

I’ve never felt like this before, but at the same time, my mind has latched onto the feelings they evoke. Julian encourages me, Miles comforts me, Titus protects me, and Damen…

Damen gives me something to believe in.

We have days to solve this haunting, but my personal issues threaten to overwhelm me. With each passing day, it becomes more difficult to pretend to be normal.

And if I falter, for even a moment, then I could lose everything forever.

This is the second book in a multi-book slow burn reverse harem series. Be forewarned.

My Thoughts 💭

I’m enjoying this weird series! The further you get the more questions you have! Is Bianca their mate? Who started Bianca on the bogus pills and why? What is Julian’s mother hiding? Where is Finn? I need answers! Bianca is soooo naive and the guys are so cute with her. They don’t know what to do with themselves. This book is just as interesting as the first but the mysteries are killing me! Lol I need answers!

Bossy Biker by Lark Avery review!

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis

Famous last words: I don’t need a man!

Little did I know I’d be eating those words as fast as the customers at my diner ate my pie!

I tried my best to tell the bossy biker who swung into my one-stoplight town that the kind of pie he wanted wasn’t on my menu. But he made me an offer I couldn’t refuse—three days, no strings, and all the pie he could eat.

I might have sworn off men, but it’s hard to say no to the beast of a man with the ability to make my panties disappear with a single glance. But the one thing I won’t be serving up is my heart. Been there, done that, have the hideous wedding dress to prove it.

Come Monday, the rough and wild biker will ride out of town and out of my life forever. Unless he can convince me that making room for him in my heart and my small town life is easy as apple pie.

Author’s Note: If you don’t like stories about bikers and jilted brides packed with pie references, go eat a salad. If you do, prepare to have your heart melted and your kindle burst into flames. Proceed at your own risk.

My Thoughts 💭

This was a hot, quick and fun read! Raider’s bike breaks down outside of a small town and he thinks it’s the worst luck ever until he lands his eyes on Blossom and tastes her pie. Raider decided small towns aren’t so bad and Blossom changes her mind about swearing off men. I just loved everything about this book and I definitely recommend it!

small change. I want his biggest asset. Beautiful, mentally unstable, Angelina
Dalton-Clarke.

husband, that chore will fall to me. But if she thinks I only want her for her

Lust By Ker Dukey review!

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My Thoughts 💭

I liked the book and it was a good introduction to the series, it just wasn’t what I was expecting. I’m not sure why I thought “lust” would be more hot? Or sexy? Rhett is dealing with feeling responsible for his brother’s death, his mom leaving and trying to join the Elite. Good girl Chasity comes along and he has a change of heart about the Elite but it’s too late. It was interesting though with lies and deceit that makes me want to continue the series.

Nikolai by Kristin Alexander!

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Synopsis

High school is hard, but for Hannah Prescott it has become unbearable. She has an overzealous admirer whose advances are moving from challenging to terrifying. In her mind there is only one solution: Nikolai Ivanov. Nikolai, with his tendency towards violence and connections to the Russian mob, is exactly who Hannah needs to keep herself safe. Her idea is to pretend to date so her suitor will be too intimidated to approach her.

Nikolai Ivanov has had no use for relationships, seeing how brutally they can be dispatched through his father’s involvement with the Russian mob. When Hannah approaches him, he is initially dismissive. However, witnessing her distress and fear pulls him at ways he doesn’t want to admit to. He agrees to Hannah’s charade, but is determined to keep it impersonal. At first. Soon, all of his protective instincts are triggered and while he wants to create distance between himself and Hannah, he can’t keep his hands off of her.

Other dangers related to Nikolai’s father create more problems for the pair when Hannah and her younger sister are threatened in attempt to control Nikolai. Nikolai works to keep Hannah and her sister safe while confronting how important Hannah has become to him.

My Thoughts 💭

Hannah has been dealing with a stalker and she’s so tired of it she decides to approach someone in the mob so she goes to Nikolai for help. Nikolai was a jerk at first but the more he heard of her story he agrees to a fake relationship. They both sucked at the fake relationship since their feelings were very real. I enjoyed the story and I’d love to read what’s next for the other characters.
