I enjoyed Glint way more than I did Gild!

The plot is moving along in a good pace and we were introduced to more characters, which made Auren and the story more interesting. There’s also more world building and less of King Midas which made this more enjoyable, because I hate that guy.

I liked the world building and the introductions to new characters (I know I’ll love these!) and the character growth for Auren- a much needed one. I also felt like I connected more with her and her experience in this book than the first one. I’m also more engaged in the development of the plot and story!

Also, the ending of this book was very interesting and I did not see that coming!

Overall this was better, but I’m still missing something. I don’t know what it is yet. I just know it’s something and I’m very much invested to continue Auren’s story.

This series has been on my tbr-list forever. I’ve been very excited about finally starting this because I’ve heard a lot of good things about the series.

After finishing the first book in this series, I’m a little… underwhelmed. Unfortunately, to me, this didn’t get interesting or wasn’t that exciting, until a little past the halfway mark. The last part of this book was absolutely where things got interesting. The first part was moving along slowly with not really that much happening. This was definitely a book that’s setting up for the rest of the following books. I’m still engaged and curious about this story and will continue with the next installment.

Also, Sail. I cannot leave a review without mentioning him. He was honorable and pure. He made a presence for sure.

On to the next one!

Sara can do no wrong! She’s done it again. She has me in a chokehold and under a spell- I absolutely love it!

“That’s the thing, Sage. I don’t want to be a good person anymore.”

This was unbelievably hot. Toe-curling hot. The s*x tapes! *Whispers* the s*x tapes. I mean, I did not expect that. They. Were. So. Hot. The tension building between Adam and Sage was palpable and perfectly done! They had me blushing and squealing, and every scene upped the next one. Like, the scene at the office in church had me screaming! It’s the combination of the forbidden element, the possibility of getting caught, the revenge aspect, the good boy/bad girl scenario and the mouth on this guy(!!!) which just made this book absolutely perfect! It was so much fun and gaspingly hot!

I loved the balance between plot and smut. It’s perfect. I loved the complexity of Adam and Sage. I found myself able to relate to them on so many levels and in different aspects, which made me love this book even more. They were well developed and complicated. I also really liked how their trauma was handled. It felt real and I liked that it was addressed in a way that showed how much healing and finding a new path is not a linear process, but more like a one day at a time.

“It feels as if my shackles are released. I can be as bad as I want.”

I really found the revenge plot intriguing. It was a lot of fun, but also added to the suspense and tension. I also loved the element of opposites attracts which added to the fun. They definitely challenged each other and pushed each other’s boundaries. I loved it!

“Keep it down, Peaches. This is our dirty little secret.”

I’m so excited for The Home Wrecker and Caleb’s story! This was a thrilling start to a new series.

I absolutely loved this book! This was perfect!

This was one of the hottest books I’ve read. Forced proximity and why choose? Say no more. I adored Samantha! Her references, inner dialogue and thoughts gave me life! She was hilarious and relatable. Absolutely loved that girl! Our guys: Alec, Cole, Jace and Reed, we’re equally hot, and so caring and thoughtful. They were funny and possessive- they were great! Truly, all the good things!

Also, the author’s choice to describe our heroine as vaguely as possible, leaving out as much details about physical traits, was amazing. Leaving it up to the reader to picture the heroine as they wish.

THANK GOD THIS SERIES IS OVER!

To say that this series has been the bane of my existence, is fairly accurate. Not like Anthony Bridgerton kind of bane of my existence, to make that clear.

It’s been a long, way too long, of a journey and I’m relieved it all ended happily. Because after all this, I don’t know what I would have done if this would have ended badly. So that’s good. I can rest easier.

Unfortunately I can’t give this more than two stars. I want to give it three: one for Blue and Lance, one for Tory and Darius and one for this finally being over! But it’s just too many unnecessary povs and dragged on chapters that I just can’t do it. So two stars it is.

Not only was there pointless povs but also storylines and characters that really didn’t do anything to further the story or they were a part of the story but they held no real impact whatsoever on how it all turned out. But that wasn’t new to this book, that’s been the whole series.

So to wrap up: thank god this is over… I got through this series by my sheer stubbornness. Only thing that truly got me through it was Darcy and Lance, and Darius.

Good luck to anyone who embarks on this journey. Wouldn’t really recommend, but you do you!

This book was unexpected- in the best way possible!

This captured me from the first page and held my interest throughout it all. Not only was this a breath of fresh air and such an original story, I mean, two serial killers making it a game to kill other serial killers? I HAD A BLAST! So much humor and banter and tension between Blackbird and Butcher! The spice was top tier!

Some of the situations they found themselves in were absolutely unhinged and crazy, but holy hell it was hilarious! I loved how humor was used to lighten a very dark situation. This was balanced perfectly!

I highly recommend this! Just check the TW before you go in on this adventure!

I listen to the audiobook and loved it!

Well. Where should I start?

I went into this blindly. All I knew was that this had the potential to ruin me. So of course I headed into this blindly- I love not knowing if I’m gonna be in a pile of ruin after finishing a book.

This was a journey, that’s for sure! To me it was a little bit slow at the beginning. I was trying to figure out where this book was going- I knew *something* was going to happen. Then, when I thought I had it figured out, I got slapped in the face by a plot twist. As plot twists go, I thought it was great and exciting! I loved the suspense and thriller elements. Then, again, I got hit with a plot twist. And this was a brutal one. It left me feeling so sad and hurting for Olivia, the FMC. It was heartbreaking and as truths were revealed it was so sad. So I thought that was it, I was sorely mistaken! Another plot twist. I was so confused, I started doubting myself, like I was doing something wrong somehow. But that was also the last time my head got all confused and trying to understand what was going on and what was real or not. Like I said: this was a journey!

I loved the chemistry between Olivia and James. Therese instant attraction, the tension and also the mystery of who James was made it all very exciting and thrilling.

I loved how it ended though! A perfect ending for this thrilling and spicy story!

I’ll leave you with this: inception.

This is the second book in The Goode Brothers series. It’s an emotional, thrilling, smutty story about Caleb, Briar and Dean. But what I truly loved the most about this book was that it was about finding yourself and being authentically and truly yourself.

Caleb and Briar are a married couple trying to conceive their second child. This has been a struggle which has also caused them to slowly drift apart. Then enters Dean. Dean has been in Caleb’s life before when Dean dated Caleb’s youngest brother Isaac. Then years later Dean enters Caleb and Briar’s lives after he loses his home and he’s in need of a place to stay.

There’s tension between them all. Caleb and Dean because of their history- loved the enemies to lovers vibe they gave off, and Dean and Briar lusting after each other. The close proximity, the tension, the forbidden element of giving into lust, but also not wanting to cross a line, was such a thrilling and spicy part of their story and journey. I loved how the tension between Caleb and Dean turned into lust and then they because consumed by each other- that they all were! I loved how they moved together and became a throuple. It just made sense. They fit together perfectly.

I also enjoyed how much they grew- the communication was not good in the beginning, and I loved how that was actually addressed and how they learned to communicate properly- it all made them become better people. They all grew so much.

This was such a lovely and spicy story filled with love. I absolutely loved it.

This was my first Keri Lake book and I was really excited about this read. I went in kinda blindly; I knew it was a dark romance with gothic themes- but that’s it.

I enjoyed the first part of this book. I was captured from the first page and I was intrigued about where this was going. The mystery and secrecy around Lucian and the manor itself was captivating.

Unfortunately as I got more into the story, the secrecy and mystery, I felt like it was underwhelming. The secret society was just cringe and honestly, I don’t see the true purpose behind it. I think the story could have worked without it as well.

When it comes to Isa and Lucian they both have traumas and experiences in life that were absolutely heartbreaking. They definitely trauma bonded and the forbidden elements of their relationship was exciting and taboo, but I also saw it as fueled by lust. I didn’t really see or feel rather the “all consuming love” part. Lucian was definitely protective and obsessed with her, but I missed more love between the two of them.

The thing that was supposed to make Lucian mysterious and dangerous didn’t really convince me. The allure of Lucian ended up being a bit disappointing, but yeah, I guess he was a bit scary, but I mostly just felt bad for him about what he went through.

I liked Isa as a character. There was growth and I feel like she learned a lot and was a well rounded person. There was also revelations about her that I didn’t see coming, which was surprising add-ons to her character.

Overall I liked the gothic parts, some of the reveals were creepy and some I saw coming a mile away. The biggest reveal, the one I didn’t see coming was interesting and I enjoyed that twist. There was a lot of stuff happening and they kinda wove together in the end.

This was my first Freida McFadden book and I was not disappointed.

I was really captured by the story and where everything could possibly go. I enjoyed all the possible villains and how you sympathized for the characters. At one point I was absolutely one hundred percent sure the possible villains were all innocent and that there was another person who obviously had committed the crime- I was so wrong! (Spoiler! At least not the person I suspected!) But this is what I truly love: the mindf**** and hesitation and doubt. I was not ready for the ending though! That was a slap in the face, completely out of the blue- for me at least!

But this was thrilling, exciting and kept me in the edge of my seat! I know I’ll be picking up more of Freida’s books!
