Synopsis

Nineteen-year-old Bellarosa has lived the past three years locked away in a tower, freedom, being only a myth she could fantasize about.

She has tried to break free of her chains but has failed at every attempt. That is, until a friend turns a blind eye and allows for her to escape her confines.

The president of the Savage Beast MC is no easy role to play. Neither is being a single father. His focus has always been his club and his daughter.

At almost forty, Dragon is convinced he will never find a woman to call his own, not unless he buys her.

Both lost souls searching for freedom. Both stumbling upon one another. Unsure if they can trust each other. She searches for happily ever after. He will never be her prince charming.

When two people who learn to trust despite their pasts come together, they become an unstoppable force, something that not even the devil could split apart.

My Thoughts 💭

I enjoyed Bellarosa and Dragon’s story! Bellarosa was so sweet given what was done to her! Dragon was sweet to his girls but totally an alpha male. It was knee weakening lust at first sight with a little denial from Dragon that quickly went out the window at the thought of other men having Bella! This was a hot & steamy action filled story I definitely recommend!

Hard working criminal lawyer Elizabeth Montgomery is finally taking a vacation, a solo trip to the mountains of North Carolina to a cozy little cabin in the woods. Unfortunately, she doesn’t even get to spend one night there. She takes an early evening hike and ends up on the wrong side of a vicious animal attack.

Or so she thought.

When she’s found and rescued by sexy stranger, Abraham, she soon finds out it was a werewolf that attacked her. And that she’s the newest member of Abraham’s pack.

Now Elizabeth must navigate the changes that come along with becoming a werewolf while also learning to fit into this tight knit pack. For an only child who rarely speaks with her own parents, getting close to Abraham and his family might just be scarier than becoming a werewolf.

She’s on the run. He has a Viking vendetta. When they unite through history, will they find doom or destiny?

Boston, 2019. Mia is desperate to protect her unborn child. Under her mafia boyfriend’s watchful eye, the pediatrician is out of options until a Norn transports her back in time.

With centuries between them, can Mia and Hakon find a way to cling tightly to love?

The Marriage of Time is the third standalone book in the steamy Called by a Viking series of time-travel romances. If you like sexy Nordic adventures, engaging characters, and heart-wrenching twists, then you’ll love Mariah Stone’s captivating story.

My Thoughts 💭

This was a cute time travel romance. Mia and Hakon were so adorable. Mia is thrown back in time while trying to get away from her ex and she’s threatened if she isn’t the princess Hakon is supposed to marry. They fall in love despite their differences. There’s a little drama when the real princess Hakon was supposed to marry shows up and Mia making a foolish choice but it was a pretty good read!

Excerpt
Nate stands
near the edge of the bathroom, facing the window, head down between his
shoulders, hands firmly planted on the windowsill, fingers sprawled but
crooked, as if he’s trying to crack his nails against the stone. A picture I
could paint in a heartbeat.
“I know
you’re there,” he says, his voice gravelly, painful. As though he’s wounded and
ready to lash out.
I should
run and hide. Take my pride and stride while I still own it. He could strip me
bare of everything I am and throw me to the masses to be ridiculed. He’s Falcon
Elite’s star athlete; a guy with a promise of a bright future. A person with so
much baggage you don’t dare touch them.
But I do.

My hand has
already reached for him and grazed his shoulder.
He
immediately turns around.
I take a
few steps back.
“Are you
stalking me now?” he growls,
snorting. “Pathetic.”
He
breathes, walks, and talks like a monster. A man obsessed with one thing and
one thing only. Me.
“I’m not.
You started it,” I reply, still stepping back until I’m backed into a corner of
the toilets with no escape. He’s already blocked the door with his huge frame.
The only way out is by passing him. Shit.
He leans in
and traps me between him and the wall. “Why did you follow me?”
My heart
beats in my throat and I swallow away the lump in my throat.
“I … wanted
to know.”
“What? How
a guy like me can stoop to that level? Why I even try? If I’ll give up?” He
looks into my eyes like he’s trying to search for the truth but I don’t have it
for him.
“Tell me,”
he says.
“Why you
said you thought my painting was beautiful.” It sputters out of my mouth before
I realize it.
I don’t
mean to be so forthcoming, but when he looks at me like that with those
penetrating eyes it just happens. And something about the way he clenches his
jaw and then bites his lip undoes me.
“Because
it’s the truth,” he says with such a serious face that I find it hard not to
believe him.
He snorts.
“But you’ll obviously think that’s a lie.”
“No,” I
respond.
His eyes
narrow. He brings one hand to his face and rubs his jaw. “Liar.”
The silence
is overpowering. Seconds feel like minutes as his breath slows, but I can feel
every one of them prickling on my skin.
“Is this
really all about the pictures?” I ask.
He cocks
his head, and leans in even further until his breath is against the side of my
cheek and my whole body is covered in goose bumps. “That’s for me to know and
for you to find out.”
A gasp
escapes my mouth when his lips briefly brush past my ear.
“Tell me …
are you scared of me?” he whispers.
I want to
answer, but my throat feels numb and my head dizzy.
When our
eyes connect, the tension is like lightning electrifying me from the inside
out. This can’t be happening, it can’t
be that … I can’t want this.
A devious,
sexy smirk appears on his face. “Thought so.”
Then he turns
around and walks out, leaving me out of breath … and with my heart lost to a
boy I shouldn’t ever crave.

Review: The Burn Of The Underworld by Meg Xuemei X

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Length:355 pages

Published: May 16, 2019

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis

Escaping hell is nothing compared to the mating fever. One just feels a lot better.

My name is Calamity.

I have no past or future, just a life fighting to the death in the arena. I never expected this to change, but then three smoking-hot supernatural warriors arrive in my wrecked world, claiming I’m the lost queen and their fated mate.

They come to bring me back to the Upper Realm to claim my stolen birthright, despite the fact that no one has ever escaped the Underworld.

As a branded slave, I don’t trust anyone, but I can’t deny the power now awakening inside me, anymore than I can deny my fatal attraction to the immortal males who fight beside me.

Warning: This is a full-length reverse harem fantasy romance that features one hell of a hybrid woman warrior and her four powerful mates. It contains battles, explicit love scenes, curses, magic, dark fae, vampires, shifters, fallen angels, and a lot of demon assholes.

My Thoughts 💭

This was a interesting story. I enjoyed the action and Calamity being kind of a bada••! This is a steamy reverse harem that ends in a cliffhanger and I can’t wait to read what’s next for Queen Calamity and her mates.

Genre: Taboo, Romance

Daughter, covet not thy mother’s husband. 

Isn’t that a saying? 
I know it isn’t, but in my case it really should be. 
Because, in my case, I didn’t just walk up to the line, I crossed so far over it that I can no longer recall how I got there in the first place.

What line did I soar over? The line leading up to him.

Owen Montgomery: Rich … powerful … fucking amazing in bed.

Oh, and he’s married to my mother.

I didn’t seek this out as a way of life, but once I had my first taste of it—and him—handed to me on a glistening silver platter, I felt I owed it to myself to enjoy every delicacy offered to me while I could.

I suppose I should have known that my guilty pleasures couldn’t possibly last forever, and when our relationship took a decidedly nasty turn, I was left feeling utterly dejected. 

Guided by my resentment, I threw caution to the wind and allowed myself to fall into the arms of another man. 

Not just any man. The man in question is none other than Ethan—Owen’s absentee son.

After Owen left me so bitter, I realized that Ethan represented the ultimate escape … and I must admit, revenge.

Why not? He’s gorgeous, charming, and witty to boot.
As an added bonus, he’s single.

But … Owen has other ideas. He has decided that no other man can have me but him. 

I am his … and he will stop at nothing to keep it that way.

What does a geeky math nerd know about writing romance?
That’s a darn good question. As a former techy I’ve done everything from computer programming to international trainer. Prior to college I had lots of different jobs and activities that were so diverse, I was an anomaly.
None of that qualifies me for writing novels. But I have some darn good stories to tell and a lot of imagination.
I have lived in Colorado, Hawaii and currently Washington. Going from two states with 340 days of sun to a state with 340 days of clouds, I had to do something to perk me up. And that’s when I started this new adventure called author. Joining the Romance Writers of America and two local chapters, helped me learn the craft quickly and has been a ton of fun.
My family consists of two grown children, their spouses, two adorable grand-daughters, and one grand dog. My favorite activity is playing with my grand-daughters!
When the girls can’t play with their amazing grand-mother, my interests are reading and writing, yay! I started reading at a young age with the Nancy Drew mysteries and have continued to be an avid reader my whole life. My favorite reading material is romance in most of the genres, but occasionally other stories creep into my to-be-read pile, I don’t kick them out.
Some of the strange jobs I have held are a carnation grower’s worker, a trap club puller, a pizza hut waitress, a software engineer, an international trainer, and a business program manager. I took welding, drafting and upholstery in high school, a long time ago when girls didn’t take those classes, so I have an eclectic bunch of knowledge and experience.
And for something really unusual… I once had a racoon as a pet.


Join with me as I tell my stories, weaving real tidbits from my life in with imaginary ones. You’ll have to guess which is which. It will be a hoot!


Release Blitz/Arc Review: Kain by K.R. Ruth

Title: Kain
Series: Immortal Mackays
Author: K.R. Ruth
Genre: Mafia Romance
Release Date: September 3, 2019

My unannounced marriage…felt like a deep void.
Felt like an open wound rubbed with sandpaper.
Felt like shards of glass shoved brutally beneath my throat.
Because after exchanging our wedding bands, I was questioned and kissed, kissed and questioned by Kain Riordan right there at the altar.
Who would be asking such disturbing questions to his lawfully wedded wife?
Kain would.
Also, I think I just fell for him right there in his arms.
Besides that, I realized it was way too late, especially when fate brought the cracked-up voice to life, from my past.
I was torn between love and fate!
And I was about to choose.
Love was my weapon.
Fate was my battlefield.
My Thoughts 💭
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kain and Mia’s story pulled me in and didn’t let me go! I loved their chemistry. I’m definitely going to give the first two books of the series a try! I enjoyed this mafia romance!
