Review: The Chase

Image
The Chase by Victoria Denault My rating: 5 of 5 stars Yes!  I have never read a race book before..... I am not a fan of racing so it didn't really call to me..... but when one of your one-click authors writes a book you give it a chance! And I am so glad that I did.  While I was not at all that into the description of the things happening on the race track (which there was not a whole LOT of) I was totally here for the story!  Billy and Frankie are the sweetest!  Definitely a Racing World Royal couple!  And I am also loving some of these other characters...  I need Lucia's story!  I need Rocco's story (since he wasn't the b*startd that I originally thought he was).  I look forward to more from this world!!   Story     🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Spice       🔥🔥🔥 Swoon      😍😍😍😍 Angst       💔💔💔 View all my reviews

Review: Binding Contract

Image
Binding Contract by Amelia Wilde My rating: 5 of 5 stars Holy goodness!  I was not expecting for Mason Hill to turn so freaking swoony!!!  In this conclusion Charlotte has a major battle with her family to tackle.  She spent so much of herself doing everything she could to save her family's business and for them to turn on her the way that she did was just heartbreaking!  But she has a plan to show them that they didn't break her.... and I was here for it!  LOVED  this story!  And I loved the epilogue that leads into the next story!  I am loving this Hill family and I absolutely want to see them all her their HEA!!!  Story      🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Spice       🔥🔥🔥🔥 Swoon      😍😍😍😍😍 Angst       💔💔💔 View all my reviews

Review: Sicko

Image
Sicko by Amo Jones My rating: 5 of 5 stars 🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧 ✨A TOP LISTEN OF 2022✨ 🚨TRIGGER WARNINGS!!!🚨 (s/a and violence) Damn! Like, what did I just listen to??? This was my first Amo Jones book and I went in blind, so I really didn't know what I was getting myself into! I am not going to lie.... I did not like Royce for the longest part of the book. And there was a point after I started to like him that I thought he was going to completely disappoint me! Jade was quite the baddie! She takes being a victim and makes sure that her time as such will not be for nothing. She fought in the only way that she knew how! And with Royce being Jade's foster brother, that made the forbidden factor rise! Loved it! There was a scene toward the end that goes into some graphic detail about what happens to someone.... and I really don't think I needed to hear that.... it totally made me cringe! But other than that I didn't feel like the violence was too...

Review: Mindf*ck Series

Mindf*ck Series by S.T. Abby My rating: 5 of 5 stars ✨TOP READ OF 2022✨ Holy freaking craziness!  I am over here wondering what the hell took me so long to read this series??  I totally read this in the span of 2 days! 5 books in 2 days!!!  I was HOOKED!  Female serial killer gets together with an FBI profiler who is working serial killer cases! If that doesn't pull you in by just seeing that I do not know what will!!!  Logan and Lana are freaking FIRE!!!  They are so perfect together!  Jake and Hadley are kind of awesome too!  And I was really hoping that Lana would slap Lisa just one time!  (but what she did get her with was pretty darn funny).  This series had me laughing, crying, shocked, on the edge of my seat, turning the pages like I had nothing else I needed to get done and then wanting me to do it ALL OVER AGAIN!  Now I totally see what the hype was all about and in my opinion it is 100% deserve...

Review: To Sir Phillip, With Love

Image
To Sir Phillip, With Love by Julia Quinn My rating: 5 of 5 stars 🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧 Another fantastic Bridgerton story! I love this family!  Their family dynamic is just as important to each story as the romance with the couple.  I was feeling pretty bad for Elouise because Sir Phillip really kept saying he wanted a mother for his twins, since their mother died.  She has some issues with the kids at first and the way she handles them is quite entertaining.  They run into a few snags as a couple, but they get married and then Sir Phillip thinks that because they are making love all the time, and they seem to get along when they are together, then they have the perfect marriage.... but Elouise sees things a bit differently.  Communication is key!  Loved the couple.  Loved the kids.  Loved the storyline!  A very wonderful listen!  Story       🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Spice      ...

Review: The Games that Break Us

Image
The Games that Break Us by Dee Garcia My rating: 5 of 5 stars ✨A TOP READ OF 2022✨ Yes!  Yes! Yesssss!!!!!!  This book was so great!  And it ended in a freaking clifffy that has my mind all over the place!!!  Ok... so Bennie (Birdie) is in drug trafficking.... and is messing around with the boss..... but when she gets busted and brought in, she doesn't give him up at all.  Even after she finds out that he had ideas that they were onto her and he did nothing to prevent it.   While in prison, Bennie has some heartbreaking things happen with her family that she misses out on.  She has these relationships with the other ladies in her cell block that really just give you all the feels.  She ends up starting a forbidden fling with the super hot CO Andres Bala.  Well I won't get into all the details, but I will tell you all that the sexual tension in this book in ON POINT!!!  It was SO crazy madde...

Review: Compromised

Image
Compromised by Kate Noble My rating: 5 of 5 stars 🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧 I really LOVED this story!  Evangeline gets "compromised" by Max.  Gail and Max can't stand each other, but she will have to get used to him because he is going to become her brother-in-law.  The way these 2 banter, even when they call a truce is so freaking amusing to listen to.  Some of Max's behavior really had me wanting to scream at him, but honestly Gail just took most of it in stride and didn't let it show that he was hurting her.  New to me author and I was so into it!  I am going to have to look for more by her because I was thoroughly entertained!  I loved Evie, Gail, Max and Will!!  A great story!   Story     🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Spice       🔥🔥 Swoon      😍😍😍 Angst       💔💔💔 Narration   👏👏👏👏👏 View all my reviews

Review: The Damaged

Image
The Damaged by Tijan My rating: 5 of 5 stars 🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧 I liked this one a lot more than The Insiders!!  Possibly because you actually got some of the chapters were from Kash's POV.  This one does end on a doosey of a cliffhanger! In this story there is a whole lot more suspenseful moments.  Peter actually seems like he is trying to get to know his daughter now.  I feel like Matt really shines in this one.  We see him trying to get his **it together a bit and he is freaking hilarious!  He had me laughing so much in this book.  I think the fact that Baily was dealing with anxiety left over from the failed kidnappings before, so that makes you feel more suspense in the story in the moments that warrant it.  Emma Galvin did a great job, and Joe Arden was PERFECT as Kash!  I can not WAIT to get the next one!  I need to know how this all works out!!!    Story        🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 S...

Review: The Earl Who Played With Fire

Image
The Earl Who Played With Fire by Sara Ramsey My rating: 5 of 5 stars 🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧 Wow!  I loved this story a whole lot more than I thought I was going to!  I wasn't the biggest fan of Prue because of how she behaved in Amelia's story.  But I am a sucker for a sibling's best friend story, and I have loved the Muses of Mayfair so I couldn't pass this one up.  Plus I was quite curious as to why Alex hadn't settled down yet since he didn't really seem like a total rake.  The fact that there was a myth that was the driving force behind these 2 seriously smart people NOT getting together was interesting!  And quite funny.  I can't say that I wanted to junk-punch Alex.... but I definitely wanted to grab his shoulders and give him a shake on more than one occasion.  Very great story and narration!  Loved this whole series..... Ellie and Nick are still my favorite though (book # 3 - The Marquess Who Loved Me)  Sto...

Review: Deepest Desires of a Wicked Duke

Image
Deepest Desires of a Wicked Duke by Sharon Page My rating: 5 of 5 stars Whew!  Ok so I read a 1 🌟 review of this book and knew that I had to check it out.  Basically they young Duke of Sinclair meets and falls in love with Portia, a non-titled not rich girl.  They get engaged, but then he is led astray by those who don't want him to marry her..... he breaks the engagement and then goes into a total downward spiral.   10 years later she is kidnapped and he is lured to this party.... an orgy party!  (which he tends to enjoy but had no plans to go to).  And he finds her there tied to his bed.  The craziness starts when others at the party start turning up dead.  And then they are trying to figure out who is behind it.  It was so good!  Now the review that I read went on about the orgies and said that he watches her in the orgy and he does things with other people in front of her..... that is not true at al...

Review: The Mastermind

Image
The Mastermind by Dylan Allen My rating: 4 of 5 stars A very enjoyable story with some suspense and twists in it!  Jules and Omar are a great couple together.... and I was not at all surprised when they got into their fight and how he reacted to it.  What did surprise me was when they put their heads together and started to investigate, the road that it takes them along uncovered some things that I did not see coming!  And of coarse it was great to get a little peek to see how the folks of Rivers Wilde are doing when they made their trip there!   Story        🌟🌟🌟🌟 Spice         🔥🔥🔥🔥 Swoon       😍😍😍😍 Angst         💔💔💔 View all my reviews

Review: The Marquess Who Loved Me

Image
The Marquess Who Loved Me by Sara Ramsey My rating: 5 of 5 stars 🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧 So far this has got to be my favorite of the series!  I have loved Ellie since her part in the very first story!  And I had been hoping that her story was going to be a second chance with her first love.  The fact that Nick has come back after 10 years and wants revenge for his broken heart was to be expected.  How he thinks he will be getting his revenge, well you can see what will happen from the start!  You already know that he won't be able to keep it just sex.... he was in love with her before and he will be in love with her again....funny how these Hero's like to think that they can harden themselves to people that they have already loved (and probably still do if they are so angry STILL that they want revenge).  But this was a great one.  And there was a suspenseful element to it that had me questioning who the bad guy was!   ...

Review: Marrying the Mobster

Image
Marrying the Mobster by Victoria Vale My rating: 4 of 5 stars 🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧 Diego and Elena were really freaking HOT!  Diego took Elena because her dad owed him money.  But then when her dad disappears, Diego decides that Elena can be useful to him by acting as his girlfriend so that he doesn't have to marry a potential ally's daughter (without offending them). Well he didn't believe that they were really that serious so they did end up getting married.  Eventually Elena got dragged into stuff she didn't know how to deal with, and Diego had been treating her like property more than a partner so she didn't really know how to handle herself.  I enjoyed the story.  There were a few times that I thought something was going to happen and then it didn't (like twist wise).  So it definitely had me guessing the whole way through.   The narration was just ok.  I mean they didn't turn me off the story or anything but I ...
