Bared to You - Review

Image
 I have no words for how amazing this book was. From the beginning to the end I was hooked on both Gideon and Ava. I enjoyed seeing how these two damaged people tried to make things work. Not to mention Gideon Cross is a dirty man! Oh my goodness, I just couldn't believe how dirty this mans mouth was! I mean wow. Not only that but if there was a character whose dominance like...leaked out of pages in attempts at breaking the fourth wall, then it's definitely Gideon Cross!! Watching these two (and Carey) go through the doubts and craziness that is life has been great. I mean there is probably no other character that I relate to more the Ava, in a lot of her reactions to situations. I can't wax poetic enough about this book. I can't wait to read the next one in this series which technically won't be a re-read. It will be the first time that I will read the second book. I definitely feel a hangover coming on after this one.  The spice in this book was top tier. I mean ...

End of the Month Wrap Up - January '25

  Here we are at the end of the first month in this new year! I can't believe it's already over! This edition of the Wrap Ups is going to be packed with some information about my bookish life on top of the breakdown for where the books that I was able to read in January fell!  Bookish Life Update- I have managed to put together my second book shelf and it's already almost full. I need to buy another...already. My backlog of special edition books is so large that once I get them all, I know the list will still continue to stay long! I have added another subscription to my line up. Which brings me to a total of 6. One of them I'm thinking about canceling...simply because I haven't really known any of the titles that they have and they don't seem to have many special editions outside of the subscription. We'll see how I feel by the end of the next renewal. Anyway, I've decided to set my goal for this year at 100 books! Which is 25 more than last year. For ...

Captured - Review

  This book was extremely spicy! I mean like, they were getting it on from the first chapter type ish. Like there was barely time to even get to know the characters and they were getting it on. I'm a spice lover but dang....you barely even get a chance to see them get to know each other. I feel like this was a very surface level book that didn't get too deep and threw tons of spice at you. I wish there was a little bit more information on what was going on and why. Like why do parents who run a corporation need to be the WORST parents in the world to their children? Like what's their deal? Then the girl just falling in immediately with these guys and them essentially adopting her despite having this whole tough guys persona was...different. You'd think they'd all need time to warm up to each other before all that happened but no. Everything progressed extremely quickly. You'd almost think this was a novella and not a 500+ page book with plenty of time to flesh o...
