Vicious

Vicious by L.J. Shen

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Wow, that was Vicious!! Review to come but first I want to read about his friend Jaime and the Teacher 🤓.......
Ok, now that I read a few more books from this series I have to change my rating to 5 stars because of Vicious. He is plain and simple the ultimate bad boy who doesn't give a f*ck, that you hate to love his type of character! I think you got to be in the mood for this type of A-hole because he is a hard one to love but listening to his voice on audio was great I laughed a lot.

Emilia God bless you girl she took a lot from this prick. He is such a jerk who loves hard in his mean way. Enemies to lovers Emilia was perfect for him her quirky style and weirdness brought that boy to his knees. This is a semi-dark angsty read full of some hot lovin and bad book boyfriends you will come to love... or hate ;)

Mindf*ck

MindF*ck by Danyell A. Wallace

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This was a great story have to admit the title didn't fit. To me, anything with the words mind f*ck I instantly think dark romance but this wasn't that. Both Clayton and Kennedys past was bittersweet up until Clayton had an accident and got amnesia( my only dislike was that his only memory loss was of his life with Kennedy no one else just her) we go on a journey of past and present with the H&H each telling their story of when they met fell in love and how it all went bad then back to happy every after which of course is my absolute favorite type of reads and also I/R Y/A to N/A at that!

Heres my cover board

Scandalous

Scandalous by L.J. Shen

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Ok, this was an ok read I liked but wish the relationship was with a different woman than an 18-year-old girl. Don't get me wrong I have nothing against the age difference but for some reason with him having a little four-year-old daughter it just felt off like they didn't fit. She was just too immature for me. The chemistry was forced and Trent's behavior was forced too.... yeah all the hot holes are dark mean badasses but he was nasty lets just say I hope Edie takes an enema regularly. Sorry so not into the place where sh*t exits

I loved Trent though but wanted so much better for him but hey it is what it is. I even love Edie but she fits more with Bane imo. I loved that the guys are still close and always have each other's backs, love that their wives are close too but I'm kinda worried about Jamie and Mels daughter Daria I hope she's not going to be that mean in her book lol! Anyway, this story was cool I like the twist L.J. knows how to shock you. She makes think this is predictable then bam what? You can not take down the Hot-holes!

All in all somewhat enjoyable read cant complain all that much since the hot level was up to the roof!

Defy

Defy by L.J. Shen

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Well my goodness this was a hot one! A teacher-student love that blew me away. All I can say was Jamie was seriously smooth he walked it like he talked it! He put it down on Melody! lol
This was a short novella that could be read as a stand-alone. I'm not one for short stories, but this was a quick read that was worth it.
Very enjoyable and if you're looking for something taboo and risky and so hot you need to blow a fan on your hoo-ha
this is the book for you!

Happy Naughty Reading

Birthday Girl

Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Yaaaaasssss another forbidden love done right!

There are some forbidden romances that have you feeling embarrassed or even uncomfortable while reading... then there are ones written so well and are so hot you need to fan yourself.

Birthday Girl was great! I loved Jordyn she was mature 19 yr old with a lovely personality a good girl with a good head on her shoulders. (and she loved 80's music I freaking love 80's music!!!) I loved Pike (Book boyfriend for-reals ya'll) I mean wow what a man of worth! When these two meet the chemistry is on fire you root for them from the beginning. I also loved that they had regular jobs and the struggles of life were real no billionaires to come to save the day and own you. ;) The only thing I didn't like was the sloooooooow and I mean verrrrry slllooooooooowwww burn it dragged on way too much! But other than that the story was good the characters awesome just a very enjoyable read.

Ruckus

Ruckus by L.J. Shen

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I love when authors write the crap out of a story and keep me up till four in the morning, having me look up their books to the rest of the series and stalk them to see what's next to come out, and get pissed at how long I gotta wait... but because its so damn good I'll be patient and not bitch and moan like the spoiled brat that I am. (If that wasn't so long Id make that statement a shelf lol)


This series right here has me sprung. I love that its got depth and its not no damn 90-page book that leaves me hanging. I love the lil mystery that it had I seriously thought it was predictable but was instantly put to shame when I was found wrong. I love how we get to still keep up with the other characters from the previous books. I love that fulfilled filling I got when I finished this book even knowing I will get to read more from this couple in the other books left in this series. I loved both views into their past and back to present. I loved the male narrator for Dean he was so funny The Voices he used for Vischous and Trent and Jamie are fantastic.

Now as much as I loved it there are a couple of dislikes. The hate but I loved him since forever is old and used up like a full diaper. Rosie got on my nerves with that. The "It's Happening" line better not be said in Trent's story Jaime used it Vishous used it and now Dean no need to fill up the diaper with that anymore.

All in all Dean and Rosie's story was good and smokin hot and such a fun read I recommend. Read it!!!

Heartache and Hope book #1

Heartache and Hope by Jay McLean

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Omg! The feels, the feels! Omg the feels! Why the feels? Well because these two young love birds have the world on their shoulders. They tried...they really tried so so hard, I mean well she tried harder than he did but she gave up at the end it was too much for her to handle she could be there for him and her mom. I didn't blame her I totally understood her position and he, though I loved his heart wasn't ready even though he said he just wanted her and didn't care about the gang of baggage that came with her.
"I want you, Ava. On your good days and bad days-especially your bad days. I want you to let me in and know that I'm all in. I just want you."


They both need time he needs to continue to concentrate on basketball and school and she needs to find more help than just her and her brother. Seriously what they have to do to help her mom is beyond more than they can handle themselves and its also dangerous.

What I loved about this book was 1. this was another for my grown-ass loves young adult reads for me 2. I love the romance in this the getting to know you and the back and forth banter between them was so freaking cute.3. I loved all the characters her Step-brother Trevor what a heart he didn't have to stay after his dad left them but he did to help her out with her mom. 4. I loved Rys he's a good friend and Karen too you could tell she was a good friend to Ava but I;m questioning her motives on her friendship with Connar. 5. I loved the flow of the writing it didn't drag on at all.

What I hated about this book was 1. The selfishness of Connor like I said he wasn't ready even though his "end game was her he demanded too much." 2. I hated the pressure they were both put under but I understood it. 3. I hate that Karen might end up with Connor in the next book because honestly, it looks that way

All in all a very good read that left with a cliffhanger of heartbreak but I have hope that in the next book they will work things out as long as KAREN STAYS IN HER LANE!


Happy Reading!

Desolate (Grace #1)

desolate by Autumn Grey

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Ladies

I have found a new author to love!

This book right here le sigh, le swoon

Another 5 star to add to my grown-ass loves y/a and i/r reads shelf. I loved this so much. This forbidden romance was a sweet romantic juicy/steamy read. You will fall in love with both characters the slow burn was not to slow it was just right and when they came together it was explosive. I ached for these characters and I rooted for them.

This emotionally driven story puts you in all the feels. Solomon is the perfect book boyfriend and Gracie is the girl whose shoes you want to fill. I loved her. This is why I love growing of age reads the tummy fluttering love of it all, the emotional want but can't have. ugh, I was gutted at the end of this and can't wait to get to the second book and see what tortures are to come.

Awesome job Ms. Grey!!!! I'm hunting down more of your books!
Happy Reading friends!

Broken Knight

Broken Knight by L.J. Shen

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




Broken Knight!

 

My my what an emotional ride I went on with this. I got all the feels with this one. I laughed I got angry I got frustrated I cried I worried and I got happy. this book made me do those 5 things over and over again till the end. Happy but heartbroken was how I was at the end of this. I recommend listening to the audio the narrator for Knights voice was absolutely amazing he should be used for all young adult guys and adult guys too but he was so on point with Knights personality I loved it!

 

I don’t want to let this story go, Luna and Knight, oh le sigh I want more they deserve more my babies were so cute. I just wish Luna gave me a little more what Knight wanted was so clear he gave all the signs I didn't understand why she held back so much and I think she should have fought a little harder. Knight oh what a beautiful soul ugh the way he loved his momma oh be still my heart!!! Fav character after Vicious by far. But still, I loved every word of this story though I am and still wasn't ready for what happened in this book it was still beautiful. I also can't wait to read what the future holds for all these characters an am excited for Vaughns story

I couldn't decide on which storyboard I liked best so I posted all three I made check out my pins too Happy reading!!

Hideaway (Devilis Night #2)

Hideaway by Penelope Douglas

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Oh boy, this one missed the mark for me. I feel kind of awkward


I'm sad to say it fell flat I thought it was going to be so much more especially after that scene with him Michael and Ricka in book 1 Corrupt. I thought for sure we'd get to see a different side of Kia...well we did but not the side I was hoping for. Instead of hard around the edges Kia we got soft Kia and as for his love interest Banks ugh that connection lost my interest. even though she wasn't my favorite for Kia (Alex would have been better) ;) I like how Banks called them out on their tough act they better watch out seems like Damon's dad has so much more power than them...

This was an ok read for me and the reason for the 3 stars is I loved the past time stories in this series and of course Michael and Rika scenes I loved the beginning of this it was mysterious and sexy especially their past stories whenever the story went back to the present I got bored. I will continue to read the rest of this series because if Ms. Douglas can write anything as she did in book one and the Birthday girl I'm here for it!

Happy reading my friends!

Kill Switch

Kill Switch by Penelope Douglas

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I had really high expectations for Damon's book. I mean he was the villain in book 1 and what he endured through his so-called momma I expected really dark with naughty hot goodness. Book didn't get interesting till 39% no naughty hot goodness till 70% plot twist at 80% I love Ms. Douglas writing style and I've said it before her twist and turns are jaw opening but this book just felt meh! Don't get me wrong there were some goooooooood juuuuicy scenes but I was more lost and confused the majority of reading this.

All in all, I'm looking forward to continuing on with this series and I sure hope Will's book is bomb.com I need the same boys she started out with in book one back. We got a glimpse of them in this one but I hope we get more.

Happy Reading Friends

Hero (The Morgan Brothers #1)

Hero by Lauren Rowe

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Ok, guys if you want to read something that is full and I do mean full of oooey gooey cheesy weezy sweetness. I'm talking a cotton candy ride on a unicorn with Rainbow Brite type of reading.


This book right here is the one for you. You will fall so deep in love with the cuteness of this story. This was such a sweet read I think I have a toothache from it. Lydia and Colby's journey was written so well even with this being an insta-love type of book I did enjoy the work they had to put in to be together.

I will definitely be reading more by Ms. Lowe. I fell in love with the Morgans! The only downfall of this book was we didn't get much of Lydia's side of the family I wanted more of her side too. But all in all very good writing and loved the family aspect of it.... the kids were a hit!

Happy reading my friends!

The Man I Can't Have

The Man I Can't Have by Shanora Williams

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Whoa! That ending snuck on me like a bitch slap to the face... Um, I'm scared to read the nest book. but you know I will lol.
Shanora Williams and her forbidden love stories will gut you but have you rooting for the couple. From the moment Gabby and Marcel meet the chemistry they have was crackling and popping! The hotness level of this book was Blanche Devereaux worthy.


For those of you who need to know this is a cheating story so be warned. This book took me on a glorious ride of suspense and of 'will this girl get caught in the act' rollercoaster and I enjoyed every naughty bit. If you want something on the naughty forbidden side of 'girl you know you shouldn't do it but does it anyway' this is the book you need to read and I bet you'd enjoy it too!

Happy Reading friends!

The Magnificent Miss Broadway

The Magnificent Miss Broadway by JanJan Untamed

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


 This unapologetic author puts it down in her writing. I will never get enough of Ms. JanJan Untamed
This story was beautifully gut-wrenching and sexy, every word of it. Loaded with trials and tribulations and the everlasting love. I highly recommend for a good Fall/Winter read. Trust me you'd definitely want to get cuddled, wrapped up in a blanket deep into a couch with this book!

Happy reading my friends!

Forgot Me Not

Forget Me Not by Q.B. Tyler

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




Omg! I didn't want this book to end it was so good, so juicy, and so angtsy. Forget Me Not was amazing and took me on a very angsty ride of two people that belong together but go through the ultimate betrayal in a marriage. This story broke my heart over and over again. Buuuuuut it put it back together and that what counts!

This is a new to me author that I found through Instagram and Facebook and she is amazingly(word of the day) sweet and just gorgeous. I love how she made this story come to life the good the bad and the ugly and from reading the blurb I knew what was I was getting myself into. Yes, yes he cheated and boy did grovel. Getting to see his pov was the icing on the cake, I still dont forgive him though lol but I loved how this couple worked through it all to get their hea. It took alot of time and good talks and arguing. Olivia and Bennett will have you crying, yup I cried then smacked my husband in the head just for the heck of it.

Anyway back to O and B they had amazing chemistry in and out of the bedroom. Man, I tell you Olivia had Bennett are hot, hot, hot!!! The amazing love these two characters had for each other beat out all the wrong that was done to both. This book will definitely be going into my favorites list! I assure you I will be reading more from Ms. Tyler because she is amazing!!! ;)
Fav quote
I left him to deal with everything alone. I was so busy trying to survive the storm, I'd forgotten there was someone else fighting besideme
That touched me still no excuse for what he did but in reality no one is perfect.


Happy reading my friends!
