The story opened up with Maevyth Bronwick and her sister, fighting to survive in a world where woman had no rights. The entire beginning I am holding my breath hoping for a better outcome for the both of them and when they thought they could finally escape their cruel stepmother, somehow ended up even worse predicament.
When finally things started looking a tiny better for Marburg, I felt like I could breathe again. I really liked the characters and the world building . When the magic and the monsters made appearance, it made the story so much interesting even though it took a bit longer to get there.
Maevyth finds herself in another world and meet Zevender, a ruthless killer. He cared for no one except his siblings and would not even give Marburg the time of day. However, their chemistry was on point and I found their relationship fantastic. I was rooting for the both of them.
Overall, I truly loved this story and can’t wait for more. Anathema would be appealing to readers who enjoy dark, gothic fantasy romance.

“You brought me back full circle. You brought me home.”
Emily Applewood did not anticipated the opportunity of a lifetime, a job she didn’t know she needed completely changed her life. When the lead singer of a famous rock band takes her on the tour of a lifetime, she could not resist. Tristan Daltre, found Emily refreshing, used to fame and no privacy and all sudden having someone who truly see him for who he was, left him feeling refreshing.
During tour they cling to each other more than they intended and when a life-altering secret threatened to change both of their futures, Emily had no choice but to walk away.
I really loved Tristan, he was charming and respectful. I love that he was mature and truly cared for Emily. Emily was a strong heroine that even young had a strong head on her shoulders. The story had so many funny moments as well as emotional ones. It was a perfect combination of romance and angst.
The rocker’s muse is slow-burn, age gap story of forgiveness and acceptance. Romance readers will find this book appealing.

When her ex, Nathan Pierce suddenly comes back in her life, she did not anticipated sharing her team that she loves so much with him as a couch. All the sudden all of the fears of the past came rushing to disturb her life.
I liked Avery from the beginning, she was strong and didn’t let anyone push her around. Nathan on the other hand, was the complete opposite of her and I felt they kind of balanced each other. It was funny to see how he kept taken her abuse because he knew her deeper than she knew herself. The story started light and it had some humor but I found myself hurting and crying so many tears in some chapters left me completely emotional.
Overall; The problem with players is story of healing and second chances. Readers looking for a sport romance will find this book appealing.

“Three hearts, entwined by circumstance, bound by necessity, and ruled by love, beat as one against every threat we face.”
This is book two of the frozen fate series, the story picks up few months after book one ended. Frankie Novak finds herself still stranded without any hope of escape. Their only chance of survival was no longer an option and now they find their self fighting to survive once again.
The very first page of the book had me ugly crying my eyes out just relieving book one. Once I calmed down the story got a bit slow for me, but as the story progressed and we get a new character’s point of view the story got more and more intriguing. The author did a great job keeping us wanting more and she delivered all the answers at the end.
Cage of Ice and Echoes is a story of survival. It would appeal to readers who enjoy dark survival romance.

Frankie Novak finds herself making a hard decision for herself but she knew it was the best decision even if it devastated her. What she did not expected was to be abducted and taken from the life that she knew. Her life was not perfect before this but she was bound to stay strong for herself no matter what, she needed to survive. She finds herself stuck in the middle of nowhere somewhere in Alaska’s wilderness and with four wild man with no where to run and no one to trust.
”Reality and nightmare are so tightly meshed I can no longer distinguish where one begins and the other ends. It’s as if I’ve been thrust into a twisted realm, where boundaries of horror have been pushed beyond their limits.”
This book grabbed me from the very beginning. Even though is pretty lengthy I didn’t mind it because the story was so different than anything I’ve read before. The author does a great job keeping you guessing until the very last page. This is a complete page turner and is not meant for the fainted heart so please read at your own discretion.
I found myself ugly crying in several scenes with deep chest pain which made this book more appealing to me. The more painful the better. I found it hard to decide which character was my favorite but Kodiak won at the end. I am excited to see what the next two books brings.
Hills of Shivers and Shadowsis a story of survival; readers who enjoy dark suspense and dark psychological captive books will find it most appealing.

Carly Garber had a successful career to look forward to, but when her deceased fiancé’s autistic brother needed her the most she did not hesitate to leave everything behind even if temporary to help him. What Carly did not anticipated was to find her fiancé’s best friend Josh Mathers had the exact same idea as her.
Josh and Carly were very likable characters. Their chemistry was on point. I love how they both equally cared for Scottie. Scottie was my favorite though, he knew what he wanted and he didn’t apologize for it.
I did felt that maybe if we had a bit of the past with Brad I would have understood both of them as of why they were fighting the attraction, after two years I didn’t felt that they should have fought their feelings so hard.
“Sometimes I think you’re the only one who truly knows how I’m feeling - why the past two years have been a blur.” “Her words penetrated my should, reminding me just how alone I’d felt, until her.”
Overall, I really enjoyed this story. I loved all the sexy scenes, the slow burn was worth it at the end and I found myself laughing a lot.
I could never is a story about loss and being able to move on. This book would be appealing to anyone who enjoy slow burn romance.
