Synopsis

He’s half my age.

He cooks.

He fusses over my bad sleeping habits, and knows how to handle a gun. Our little reprieve during a mission can only mean one thing: my guard is down.

And the enemy I hunt is watching me, waiting for the perfect time to strike.

The time is now.

My thoughts 💭

This was a quick enjoyable read. It was nice to read about an alpha female for once! Sidone is a total bada!! I loved her! Kade is her omega and he was adorable. This book was hot and the romance was sweet! I definitely recommend reading this!

Synopsis

I was an ordinary girl, living an ordinary life, until I sold my soul to save my mother. Now, I am trapped between two worlds. Between the vampire demons who own my contract, and the Fae whose bloodline flows in me. Between the prince I’m falling in love with, and the race his kind has enslaved.

My Thoughts 💭

While I did enjoy the little bit of action in this book I started skimming over some parts. It felt like it kind of dragged I guess. I wasn’t really interested in Kayla and Tavian. They went from enemies to lovers fairly quickly. I was more interested in Fen and Ari if they’d get a little closer or anything. The cliffhanger was interesting and hopefully the story picks back up in the next one. 3.5 stars ⭐️

Synopsis

Alexis Ravenel: Peasant. Princess. Pawn.

As a peasant, I was forced to work the jewel mines in order to survive. My life was hard, but my worries were few: affording food to eat, and keeping my pet sloth out of harm’s way. But when a chance encounter with a stranger concludes with me obtaining the power of the gods, suddenly my whole world changes.

When the Storm King finds out—and trust me, he always finds out—he plans to make me a princess by marrying me off to one of his four sons. Which doesn’t really seem like too bad of a thing…at first. After all, the Storm Princes are sexy as sin, rich, confident, and built like the very gods themselves.

But nothing is as simple as it seems, and the luxurious life of the Blackwood royals is nothing but a nightmare I cannot wake up from… and neither can the princes. They grew up knowing and resenting this fact, but I had to find out the hard way…

In the Kingdom of Blackwood, we are all just pawns in the Storm King’s wicked game.

TAKEN BY STORM is the first book in the STORMS OF BLACKWOOD series, a fast burn, RH, paranormal romance. 18+

My Thoughts 💭

Well I think this is the first time a cliffhanger has left me speechless, laughing and wondering what the heck!?!😂😂 This was a wonderfully written book that captivated me from beginning to end. This book was also hot! The Storm King is a tyrant and everyone is a pawn to him. Alexis gets powers from a dying slave of the Storm King and her world is changed. The King wants power and he feels like forcing Alexis to marry one of his sons would give him even more. Then there’s Alexis’ pet sloth who keeps trying to off himself….I enjoyed this book and can’t wait to read what happens next! Kill the king!

Synopsis

This is Book 1 from the “House Of Vampires” Trilogy. Enter here and never leave…

“One minute your flipping burgers, the next minute your living in a mansion with 4 handsome vampires who all want you to have their baby…”

When her grandmother passed away, 19 year old Lorena Quinn was left a small fortune in her will.

Along with a further surprise.

Upon accepting the inheritance, Lorena learned that she was central to a prophecy. A prophecy that forecast the end of the world and Lorena was the only one who could save it.

For this to happen, Lorena would have to have a child with one of the four sons of Vlad. Commonly known as vampires.

Now she has to choose which of the four eligible vampire bachelors will be the father of her child.

However, before she makes her choice, she must first live with them. All of them, at the same time…

Welcome To The House Of Vampires!

Things get very interesting in this vampire romance series aimed at adults. If you liked Vampire Diaries, True Blood, Twilight or anything that is sexy and paranormal then you will LOVE this!

My Thoughts 💭

I was expecting a reverse harem but this definitely wasn’t it. Alan is in love with Dimitri. So he’s out. Dimitri kind of gets on Lorena’s nerves. So that leaves Wei. She likes one guy. Possibly 2 if Zane is interested. This series isn’t for me and I won’t be reading the other 2 books.

My Thoughts 💭

In this book you get to know Slade a lot better. The relationship between Slade and Kira gets better…finally!

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:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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!

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.

Review: Aries: The Zodiac Queen Book 1)

Length: 88 pages

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Published: October 1,2019

Source: Purchased

Synopsis

Twelve men. A virgin queen. One arranged marriage.

The first time I met the boys of the Zodiac Brotherhood, I was forced to my knees for the introduction. Still grieving the death of my parents, I was a child queen, a pawn in my uncle’s agenda for wealth and gain. As my guardian, he had the authority to arrange a marriage upon my eighteenth birthday.

That meeting took place six years ago.

Now those boys are powerful men.

Twelve virile men that want to own me.

And I must spend a month with each one.

Bending and yielding to their desires and commands.

Shedding pieces of my innocence so long as my virtue remains intact.

Because they want a virgin queen after the last month concludes, and my uncle plans to auction me off to the highest bidder.

Out of the twelve men, only one has my heart.

And only one can claim my hand in marriage.

If only it were up to me to decide.

My Thoughts 💭

I’m unsure about this series. “A lifetime of servitude to the man she’s to marry…..”. So 12 men just pass her around no feelings but she’s to be submissive until one gets her at the auction? Liam seemed like he cared at the end but I’m not even sure the other guys want or like her. Liam also avoids her so idk. Maybe I had the wrong idea about reverse harem romance. It was listed as reverse harem but that’s not what I got from it at all. They’re competing for her hand then one buys her at the auction? And does anyone care that her uncle gave her away to have control of her lands??? Heath is next and seems like she’s already in the dungeon with him.
