Tempt Me - Review

Image
 The next series that I decided to take on in my re-read sessions was the Wolf Hotel series by KA Tucker. This series was one that I devoured when I originally read it so I wanted to see if it still hit the same as then! This first book definitely has taken advantage of the naive virgin trope and really let it go full tilt. We meet Abbi as she is going through one of the worst moments in her life. She just found out that her fiancĂ© cheated on her. Of course she comes from a super religious background meaning that they feel like it's ok for the man to do this while she must remain chaste. I mean all the things that young adults get into are things that she was forbidden to do, whether it was drinking, partying or wearing and talking about certain things. Our girl is oblivious. So when she runs into the one and only Henry Wolf, who has done just about any and everything, she is intrigued and curious. I liked that the FMC wasn't someone who fell into her upbringing heavily and did...

Destined To Fall - ARC Review

 This book was really, really good. I laughed, I cried, I shouted out loud. The banter between the characters and how the FMC was depicted was done very well . I enjoyed the story that was told and how it was almost a role reversal. I won't spoil what roll that is but it was nicely done. This story was able to capture the tight rope and skill that so many sex workers have to walk daily. Whether they are a professional high class worker or one that is just on the edges of society. The things that we see Vivienne go through in this book. What made it so amazing is it could be applied to you even if this isn't the profession that you choose. Everyday we deal with putting on a persona when in public, we deal with family drama and sometimes we don't feel like we're enough. Watching Vivienne go through this story and meet Jeremy and everyone else was such a good read. I can't profess enough how much I loved this story. Jeremy being able to see past her profession to her a...

A Touch of Darkness - Review

 This book was better than I had anticipated. With a series such as this one, that has been out for awhile and has a following, there are a lot of things that you hear when you are looking for recommendations for books. Us book lovers tend to be harsh on some books and series and unfortunately this was one of them. I heard a lot of either hating or loving the characters in this series. I for one managed to like almost everyone. Of course those that aren't meant to be liked don't count. The lore through out this book was enough for my Mythology loving heart to gorge on while the plot itself was something I could enjoy and get plenty of laughs at. I love it when books make me have out loud emotions or make me want to hop on social media and post about it right then and there. I feel like that is what an author should aim for when writing. Make me FEEL something when I read your characters. Whether it's strong dislike or deep friendship and love for them. I deeply wanted to sm...
