Review ~ Empire of Lust by Rina Kent

Empire of Lust by Rina Kent My rating: 4.5 of 5 starsEmpire of Lust was a really enjoyable read. I loved getting to know both Kingsley and Aspen; understanding the type of characters they were, being able to delve into their pasts and realising how much they both had suffered. These two were destined to be together, despite the hate/love relationship...

Review ~ Sidecar Crush by Claire Kingsley and Lucy Score

Sidecar Crush by Claire Kingsley and Lucy Score My rating: 4 of 5 stars I jumped into Sidecar Crush immediately after finishing Whiskey Chaser. Unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the first book. I actually found Jameson and Leah Mae’s story a bit boring. We were told a lot of details instead of getting to experience them. There...

Review ~ Whiskey Chaser by Lucy Score and Claire Kingsley

Whiskey Chaser by Lucy Score and Claire Kingsley My rating: 5 of 5 stars I do love books by Lucy Score, and when I came across the Bootleg Springs series (co-written with Claire Kingsley) you know I had to dive in! I was super excited to read Whiskey Chaser, and it was such an entertaining read! Scarlett was such a fun character to read...

Review ~ A Ticking Time Boss by Olivia Hayle

A Ticking Time Boss by Olivia Hayle My rating: 4 of 5 stars Olivia Hayle has become an author that I really enjoy. She writes stories that are easy to get lost in. A Ticking Time Boss was a fun read, as I watched Carter and Audrey's connection grow. These two met by chance and crossed paths again after Carter took ownership of the company that Audrey...

Review ~ Whispers of a Broken Halo by Abbi Glines

Whispers of a Broken Halo by Abbi Glines My rating: 4 of 5 stars4.5 StarsI haven’t read a book by Abbi for a while and forgot how well she sucks you in. I loved Bryn, she was sweet and did anything for her sister and nephew, even to step out of her comfort zone. Rio was a little quick to react and held a grudge. But once he earned the trust, he would...

Review ~ Filthy Vows by Alessandra Torre

Filthy Vows by Alessandra Torre My rating: 5 of 5 stars Alessandra Torre is a master of filthy stories, and Filthy Vows was HAWT! I loved the way she introduced me to the characters: I got to know them through the years, what their struggles were and some of their deepest fantasies. One thing that never wavered was the love that Elle and Easten had...

Review ~ The Last Eligible Billionaire by Pippa Grant

The Last Eligible Billionaire by Pippa Grant My rating: 5 of 5 stars The Last Eligible Billionaire was a fun and quirky read, with an anti-people-person billionaire, an overly bubbly and a little awkward artist, with her mischievous dog. They made the most unlikely trio, but they were amusing to read about. I laughed at Begonia, and how she overshared...

Review ~ Ravaged Throne by Nicole Fox

Ravaged Throne by Nicole Fox My rating: 4 of 5 stars I was excited after finishing Ravaged Crown to see whether Willow and Leo were able to work things out. I was a bit thrown by Ravaged Throne as it began eleven months after the end of the first book. I liked that Leo was determined to get Willow back, so I could see that he actually had real feelingss...

Review ~ Ravaged Crown by Nicole Fox

Ravaged Crown by Nicole Fox My rating: 4 of 5 stars I wasn’t sure what to expect from Ravaged Crown, but I can tell you that it hooked me from the start. I could see there was something that Leo was hiding, and even though I figured it out before the reveal, it didn't make the read any less exciting. I didn’t like how weak Willow was at times, however...

Review ~ Say You Swear by Meagan Brandy

Say You Swear by Meagan Brandy My rating: 5 of 5 stars Wowzers! This book began really sweet, watching 5 friends who are basically family holiday on their own together before starting college. You can see that Ari is trying to figure herself out as an adult, and is unsure of her long time crush Chase. When Noah comes on the scene, you could see that...

Review ~ Falls Boys by Penelope Douglas

Falls Boys by Penelope Douglas My rating: 5 of 5 stars The Hellbent series is a spinoff from the original series, Fall Away. I haven’t read the original series, but I can tell you that I absolutely loved this read! Right from the beginning I was swept away into the action and intensity, and I knew I was hooked. I liked seeing Aro, from the wrong side...
