Everthing You Wanted

 This was a good book!! The spice was on point and I lived seeing the characters interact with each other. This one was deep. We have our MMC who us a member of the Bratva and our FMC who is the daughter of a Cartel boss. They both have history with each other that neither one know about when they first meet. And man do things get complicated in a hurry!! Unlike most "crime" books this one wasn't really focused on how the guy was out there living the life and just forcing the woman to deal with it. It actually dived into their relationship with not only each other but with the families and friends. You get to see Esme struggle with how the death of someone important to her mixes with her growing feelings she has for her husband. You also see how the traumatic scars that living this type of life has left not only on Esme but also on Artem. They both have to overcome this trauma to be with each other but when a big time betrayel derails both of their lives, it's nice to see them cling to each other and grow as people. 
    The betrayel was kind of obvious, I will say. I wouldn't be surprised if we find out later that this person was involved with the death of another character in this book. The way things end in the book though had me almost scared to start the next book in this series! I don't like non HEA stories because I tend to ugly cry on the couch but luckily this one didn't end that way. As for the spice, whew, it has hot HOT ok!! I loved everything about Artem and Esme!! They kept it hot and heavy nearly the entire time!! 4 out of 5 stars for the heat!! Overall, I give this book a 4 out of 5! I wish that some things weren't so obvious that it was painful. Also the ending did seem kind of drawn out when it could have ended sooner if there wasn't going to be any plot changing actions. I'd recommend this book to anyone who loves crime family romances!!

Am I A Furry?

   I finally decided to take the plunge and start this series. This book was really good and I felt so much for Elise. She has so much happening and to see her experience moments of pure happiness was the most rewarding part of this book. As for the men, whew, I really want to continue this series just to see how she is able to resolve the fact that two of the men are mortal enemies. How are they going to come to terms with each other? They are mortal enemies and their families have hated each other for generations!! The others I can see getting along just because but generational enemies?!?!?! That right there is enough to make me want to finish the series. There are so many things that are thrown in here that I'm like, GIVE ME MORE!! I have to know what's going on! The principle, what's his deal because I just feel like he's involved some how. Felix Oscura, who does he want dead enough to involve Ryder? Who is the King? Is it Cindy Lou? Is the name there t

   We are here again with another End of the Month Wrap Up. It's crazy to say that I can't believe it again but we have burned through this month in a blink. I have gone on a trip and come back and here we are, at the end of the month once again!! I didn't do as much reading as I wanted to since I fell into a slump during the middle of the month. Still all of the books that I read were interesting in their own way. So let's see where all these books fell this month!       Favorite Character:   Avery- Avery from Wonder Light is my selection as favorite character of the month!! I loved that she decided to take some time for herself and do something crazy. Sometimes doing something different can be just what we need to shock our systems and can reset us. Especially when we you go through something traumatic. I also loved her location choice! Most of the places that she went to in this book are places that I also visited. Her personality was almost exactly like

The Cliffiest of Cliff Hangers

    Whew,  I received this ARC for a honest review of this book. Let me just say that this was cruel and unusual punishment!! Like the title for this review says, the biggest cliff, in cliffhanger history ends this book.  The next page asks us to wait until next year for the next book.  I won't survive. I will spend the next week writing down theories of how this could continue.      The characters in this book are so memorable!! I love a snarky heroine and her dark hero. These two are actually a match made in... well hell? Darkness? I don't know but I can't wait to read more when the next book in this series drops. I definitely recommend this book!! The spice didn't come to the end but it was hot !! I give the spice 3 out of 5 simply because I wish there was more!! It was so good! Overall I'd rate this book 4 out of 5!! Great works building,  great characters, and plot. Everything is paced nicely and it definitely leaves you wanting more!!
