Perfect Sinner - ARC Review

Image
We finally get the story for Riggs and Archer and man it was a heartbreaker. Oh man, I was so close to tears in this one. But they get back was all that I could have asked for and more! I was cheering for these two throughout this book. Not to mention I was so excited to learn more about the families and how the are all connected. We definitely get a little more insight into them. Seeing the history of how long these two have actually known each other and how deep their actual feelings for each other has gone was so sweet! I was very surprised with how their dynamic ended up shaking out. I loved it though. They are such a good couple and I have enjoyed seeing these two blossom. I'm looking forward to more of them getting to be unapologetically themselves when we get peaks of them in the next book. Not to mention THE BIGGEST SURPRISE!! OMG I was so excited when I got to the end of this and saw that. No spoilers here of course but OMG! I was super excited. Now I can't wait for th...

Taken by Touch and Torment - Review

Image
This book was a little rough to get through. Not because it wasn't good but because Scarlett goes through and witnesses a lot in this book. She is tortured by the born vampires for a long time but she also is able to learn more about herself by meeting another succubus. The feminine rage in this book is definitely there and the women don't hesitate to let the men feel it when they cab. I enjoyed this story and getting the conclusion for Scarlett and Rune. The ending was so beautiful. After all the hardship they went through it was nice to see them have a chance to relax and just be with each other.  The spice in this book was good. There wasnt much of it since we spend most of the time with the MCs separated. What we did get was hot. I would give this a 3 out of 5. Overall, I enjoyed this book and the this was a nice spicy duet. I would recommend it to anyone who doesnt mind stepping into the darkness. Definitely check your triggers before reading! 

End of the Month Wrap Up - September 2026

Image
  This month was very interesting. I apparently decided to try my hand at some thick books and I didn't get a chance to finish all of them. However, the books that I did get a chance to finish I did enjoy. There were some new books that dropped such as Stained in Blood by Ava Tenney and a re-release of The Dawn of the Cursed Queen. I can't wait to read the next book in both of these series! This month also saw me to 99 books read for the year so far! I can't wait to finish up the two that I am reading now so that I can move onto more. The last couple weeks has seen me fall off with my Thirsty Thursday and Flashback Friday but fear not, they will be returning this week! I am going to be putting myself on a schedule, which is something that I have lacked up til this point. That way there will be more consistency and hopefully also better quality! With all that out of the way though, let's check out the books that I was able to finish in the month of September!! Favorite C...

The Ever Queen - Review

Image
  This was another great read in this series! I mean, I really enjoyed how down to earth this book felt while also having the other worldly vibes going full force. I loved the swashbuckling feeling I got while reading this. The characters are compelling and are easy to like. I mean every member of the crew were memorable and will definitely remain so. I can't wait to read some more books in this world. Everything is so fantastical but also just fun. That's all I got for this. It's just fun. The betrayal that we found out about in the last book helps to introduce us to new characters and gives us another new world to explore. The way that things ended was also beautiful and I'm excited to see what happens with our favorite fun loving twin!  The spice in this was definitely spicing. The King and Queen definitely treated us and the end scene at the end had me laughing out loud. I gave this a 4 out of 5 for the spice! Overall, I really loved getting this second book. I can...

Forged in Blood - Review

Image
  This book is going to cause so many people to read one handed. The spice in this book is off the charts!! Now that we've got that out of the way, the story was ok. Alexandros is like a bad parent, he expects his progeny to just do what he says even though it's out of character for him. Of course they're going to question and want to do what he's telling them not to do. Doubly so when no explanation is given. So much could have been solved easily and early on if he'd just open his mouth. Then we get to said progeny and I just wonder how they aren't bored. They're attending a school when their sole purpose is recruitment, yet aren't really in school? Idk, the set up is interesting to say the least. Then we get to Ophelia. She's the typical damsel in distress who is actually powerful. She has no idea what to do with said power and so just gets pushed around the whole time. I also understand bully books..i really do BUT there is a point whe...

Pucking Irresistible - Review

Image
  Another nice read from Nana Malone. This one definitely had kinda the same vibe as the other series that I read from her. The characters have known each other prior to us meeting them in this book. They have a complicated history that needs to be rectified so that they can be together. I definitely thought this one was a little more complicated than the other one that I read but it still managed to work out. Lena is a smart student who was dealt a bad hand. She had to put aside her dreams in order to take care of family and I really felt for her. Trace, is another golden boy who comes from a family of prestige that has what it takes to pull Lena from the fire that she is currently in. Of course this comes with a little trickery along the way. There were times when I definitely wanted to push Trace into doing more. He is definitely a good guy who does almost everything that you would hope a good guy would do. I'm glad that they both allowed themselves to move out of the way so tha...

The Lady and the Orc - Review

Image
  This was a borderline hate read. I mean, Jule was annoying almost from the very beginning of this book until the end. The reason why she annoyed me so much is because she seemed to be fighting harder to get back to a man who abused her and left her to be kidnapped than she was to try to understand a different group of people. Not only that but she did what you would hope NOT to do when you are kidnapped. The constant yelling and degrading of the people who kept her like they couldn't kill her at any moment was wild to me. Many a time I had to applaud Grimarr or any of the other many Orcs for not smacking her. She was so rude to them for a large percentage of the book that I'm surprised she ended up with him at the end. Of course I was very surprised by the ending. Mainly because I didn't see the resolution coming that way. I was also very surprised that there weren't more women with the Orcs. It is not really explained why there aren't any female Orcs. Just that i...
