Review – Oblivious by Leslie McAdam

Oblivious; IOU #3
(Interconnected standalone within a series)

Publication Date: June 15, 2023

Genre/Tropes: MM/Friends-to-Lovers/Workplace Romance

Author: Leslie McAdam

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
I absolutely adore books that are both make-my-heart-melt sweet and make-my-panties-wet steamy. Oblivious hit the spot on both accounts and I’m giving extra props to Leslie because the title was so spot on.😉

August and Noah have been best friends since they were nine years old. Just imaging these two young boys growing up and getting into all kinds of mischief made my heart melt. The pranks they began on one another in childhood continued into adulthood, which led to part of a risqué moment 🔥, but also kept them bonded with true friendship and laughter. August and Noah have something so many of us crave and miss as we get older, a true friend, but Noah also has a secret…he’s been secretly in love with August for pretty much most of his life and once you get a deeper understanding of August I think he’s had the same feelings for Noah, he’s just a tad oblivious to it.

These two men have a true understanding of each other, a partnership at work and even one outside of it. A relationship, if you will, just without the actual label. It’s that label, the romance that’s missing from what they share after all the time they spend together. Literally everyone around them sees it, except for the two of them. Well, mostly August, but Noah isn’t completely blameless either.  They are both oblivious to how the other feels beyond friendship, which is adorable, but also a little frustrating considering they have been friends since they were nine years old. Moving those barriers seems impossible, but not improbable, especially when they are surrounded by wonderful friends and family ready to support them.

How can two people so attuned to one another be so tuned out when it comes to love? Oh these two are just too cute. Watching them fall and then, just like Leslie promises, all…the…proposals ❤️ This book is fantastically perfect 🥰

Synopsis:
My hot best friend has no idea what he’s doing to me.

He sends me naughty texts at the most inappropriate times. He lets me fall asleep on top of him when we watch movies. And his protective side comes out if I dance too close to anyone at our favorite club.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but those are things a boyfriend does. Except August isn’t my boyfriend, he’s my best friend, and those lines are drawn in permanent marker. The one time we tried to cross the boundary between friends and lovers, it failed so spectacularly that we never did it again. So … “friends” is good enough. That’s what I tell myself. Because at least I have him in my life. Without him, I’d be lost.

But after we’re dared to kiss, and that kiss reshapes reality, we agree to be friends who do things with each other. Nakey things.

That makes my life so much better. And so much worse. After all, August doesn’t want to settle down, and he never wants to get married. While I do.

Most importantly, no matter how our relationship changes, he can’t find out I’m desperately in love with him.

Oblivious is a sweet and steamy contemporary m/m romance about best friends who don’t know they’re already dating. Noah and August are always touching, finish each other’s sentences, and bristle whenever the other gets within six feet of a date, but they can’t see what’s crystal clear to everyone else. Oblivious features badly timed schmexy texts, a hot kiss that rocks two men’s universes, and (unofficially, but likely) the highest number of heartfelt marriage proposals in a romance novel ever.

Review – Crushed But Not Defeated by Nicole Dykes

Book cover for Crushed But Not Defeated (Spark of Hope Book 5) by Nicole Dykes

Crushed But Not Defeated; Spark of Hope #5
(#5 within a series)

Publication Date: May 29, 2023

Genre/Tropes: Forced Proximity/Second Chance/Fake Relationship/MM Romance

Author: Nicole Dykes

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
Can this series make my heart grow any bigger or beat any faster…after reading this book I can say…yes, yes it can.

Andrew has been a staple from the beginning and he has the biggest, sweetest heart. As a therapist he is already attuned and sensitive to people and their feelings, but sometimes he misses being attuned to his own. While he was the one to come up with the idea to the Spark of Hope meetings and convinced Ben to hold it at his gym, thus being the sort of behind the scenes fairy godmother in a way to the beginning of several happy and successful relationships, Andrew is obvious when it comes to the man who not only helps him out, but also is standing right beside him, pining after him, wanting him desperately, Miles.

Miles is a criminal prosecutor, which is sort of the opposite spectrum of what Andrew does, but personally Miles is a pretty great guy. However, Andrew is still holding a grudge from years ago so whenever these two have been in a room together Andrew instantly prickles up. However, when Andrew needs Miles help, even thought these two have a lot of water under the bridge Miles steps up and and helps. He’s been waiting for the right moment to make things right and this is finally his chance. He’s not about to screw it up.

This book is emotional, steamy, and emotional, yeah I said it again…because not only is it heartfelt, but it’s also the last one in the series. There are special moments with all of the past characters and Andrew has been there for each of them in some small way. Miles was a total surprise, but in the best way possible. These two guys together were really great and as a couple, Nicole saved the best couple for last, in my opinion. I’m going to miss reading about this world.

Synopsis:
Miles
Selfish.
That’s the only way Andrew will ever see me. An abused boy who grew up and became a defense attorney for the rich and famous.
I’ll never forget the look on his face when I told him. The hurt and disgust I saw in his eyes as I stomped all over his dreams.
He left me behind, convincing me he’d hate me forever. Now, circumstances have brought me back into his life. I have one more chance to prove I’m not the man he thinks I am.
I’ll do anything to prove I’m worthy of him.

Andrew
Fixer.
I have been since I was a child, watching my abusive father escape justice, time and time again, and a mother who refused to see his wrongs.
So I grew up to become a therapist, determined to never feel that helpless again.
I swore to make the world a better place, and I had a plan. One I thought I’d execute with my best friend in the world.
Only he had other dreams. He smashed all my hopes in one night, and I’ll never trust him again.
Now I need his help, but I refuse to let him in completely.
He crushed me once, but now, I’m strong and stubborn. I’ll never be defeated.

Review – You Will Bow by Rachel Leigh

You Will Bow; Wicked Boys of BCU #2
(#2 within a series)

Publication Date: May 19, 2023

Genre/Tropes: New Adult/Dark/Bully/Reverse Harem/Secret Society/Suspense Romance

Author: Rachel Leigh

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
Ridge, Maddox, Lev, and Riley pick right back up in this intense and very steamy second book. I couldn’t set the book down once I picked it up, loving every word in this fast moving story.

Lev was fascinating and everything I was hoping for in his original lack of empathetic character. His growth and change, that he attributed to Riley, was fascinating to read. Not only was he was brutal and callus, but he was exactly what Riley needed even when she didn’t understand why she needed it at first.

Riley already has a relationship going with Maddox, who is the perfect boyfriend in every way possible, but once Riley gets pulled into Lev’s orbit she soon realizes that she needs the dark edginess of Lev to talk to her dark side, to help expunge her demons. It doesn’t mean she likes Maddox any less, she still needs his light side, she’s just needs them both.

Then we have Ridge…the beautiful, crazy, and insanely obsessed Ridge and I love his deep intensity. He loves without limits and says exactly what’s on his mind. Yes, can be off putting, or a tad much as it freaks out Riley, but as she’s learning, his passion is also really great and she misses his presence when he’s not stalking her or even right by her side.

This book focuses a lot on the relationship between the three guys’ long standing friendship as they figure out how a love can work between them and Riley. The suspenseful, fast moving plot is still moving around all of this steaminess and it’s filled with suspense and heat and chemistry galore! I can’t wait to find out what happens in the next book.

Synopsis:

My first year at college has been anything but ordinary.
After spending so much energy trying to protect my secret, I failed to realize it’s not the past I need to fear—It’s my future that’s at stake.
I’ve finally found someone who doesn’t judge me for my sins and stays by my side while I trudge through the shadowy corners of my past.
The only problem is, his friends have other plans.
One watches me day and night—painting a picture of a disturbed life together.
And the other is hanging my secret over my head as leverage to aid in his own scheme.
But everyone has a weakness, and that weakness will be mine.
There once was a sicko
who watched me day and night.
His invisible leash,
never let me out of his sight.
His friends were unlike him,
one a monster I feared.
The other bled crimson,
with a heart that was pure.

The series needs to be read in order for the best reading enjoyment.

Review – Court of Nightmares by K.A. Knight

Court of Nightmares
(standalone)

Publication Date: May 12, 2023

Genre/Tropes: Paranormal/Reverse Harem/Royal/Dark Romance

Author: K.A. Knight

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
A wickedly good, twisted, and intense vampyr novel. Knight has created a deeply flushed out world with rich emotions and dark passions. It’s not for the faint of heart, but for those who love why choose and dark fantasy this is a no brainer!

Althea was born from one of the most powerful seerer vampyr’s ever to live. While Althea herself doesn’t seem to possess that particular gift, she herself is destined for something greater. Without giving the plot away, Althea ends up basically banished from the court where she grew up and ends up in the hands of the Court of Nightmares. A place that is only spoken about in whispers, thought to be a myth, but as Althea discovers it is very real.

In the Court of Nightmares Althea finds seven of the most beautiful and powerful vampyrs she’s ever meet or heard about; Nathair, Osis, Azul, Lycus, Reve, Conall, and Zale. Each has their own special power (something unique that blends paras like I’ve never read before) and they all have their own story as to how they came to be part of the court.

As Althea learns about each of the Kings, their love, bond, and friendship grew stronger with each heart gripping moment. As I read I experienced moments of pure joy and also moments where tears gathered in my eyes. The Kings personal stories were all very moving.

Now let me tell you about all the nekky times…

This book is spicy knocked up 1000 degrees!! It’s also gory and intense mixed in with all kinds of spice. I mean they are vampyrs so that sort of goes hand in hand, but there were a few parts that even made me cringe, but it wasn’t until Althea actually proclaimed loving her monsters that I had an Aha moment! I didn’t realize I had stepped into this realm, but in for a penny and all that…However, I confess that my cringe had to do with my own phobias revolving around certain insects or is it bugs…whatever the case may be it’s a totally a me issue and I just read with my eyes closed. 😂 But the rest of the time I was reading with my eyes wide open because it was HOT!!🔥🔥

On another note, I am constantly amazed with any writer who can do a why choose book with so many peens because I had to have a notebook on who was who until I really nailed down their unique characteristics, but even then…brava to Althea on keeping up with so many men. I’d be exhausted and want to sleep for days with seven men constantly at me!! Don’t even get me started on doing their laundry…😂

Synopsis:

There are many things that go bump in the night, and I am one of them.

As a vampyr who was born to fulfill a prophecy, my life was planned before I was created. I obeyed every rule, and I became the perfect vampyr, but one night changed everything.

Rejected by the man who was destined for me, who was supposed to love me forever, I do the only thing I can, I flee…

Into the night, nursing my broken heart.

Being a rejected mate corrupts the soul, however, and in this game of Courts and Kings, nobody wins.

Nobody except the monsters in the shadows.

The monsters that save me, welcome me, and make me one of them.

Welcome to the Court of Nightmares, where all your wicked dreams come true.

Review – Lace Vengeance by Eve Dangerfield

Lace Vengeance; Snow White #3
(#3 within a series)

Publication Date: May 9, 2023

Genre/Tropes: Trilogy/Reverse Harem/Midnight Dynasty/Mafia/Dark Fairytale Romance

Author: Eve Dangerfield

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
January and her four men all return in the final twisted Snow White book filled with a ton of steamy passion and great twists and turns.

A year had passed since the last book and January has blossomed from the young naive girl she once was into a woman with an identity of her own. Working as a bartender in a stripclub that is owned by the Velvet House she feels more independent, is secure in her relationships with all four men, and is safe knowing she never has to see Mr. Parker ever again.

Or does she?

January’s stepmother, Corinne Whitehall, is everything that evil step-monsters embody. When that woman reappears a ripple effect begins, but truth be told, it just makes the story juicier and ripe with tension while everyone is left wondering what will happen next. Everyone knows that Corinne’s presence is never good news and all of January’s men will do anything to protect the woman they love.

This book is intensely hot, full of twists, that left me right on the edge of my seat. I still went back and forth on choosing my favorite guy, although I still love Doc’s crazy something fierce and Eli’s steadfast consistently is something to treasure as well. I’m not sure what that says about me and the two opposite extremes, but I love the other two trapped right in the middle as well. Hence, why choose is always a favorite of mine.

Lace Vengeance and the Snow White trilogy is an excellent addition to the Midnight Dynasty series along with the perfect steamy read for why choose fans.

Synopsis:
Once upon a time I had everything. Four perfect husbands, a gorgeous home, a shining future. I was the princess of Velvet House. The beloved jewel of the men I love.

My heart understood this perfect snapshot could not last. My evil stepmother conspires with my twisted ex-fiancé, watching for me in the darkness.

They won’t rest until my life is ashes.

My men vow to protect me, but when the nightmare falls, they are put in chains. I stand alone and alone I must seek vengeance for my lovers…

To become the queen I was born to be.

LACE VENGEANCE is book three in the SNOW WHITE trilogy. This is a scorching romance between a woman and four beautifully dangerous men in which she never has to choose.

Welcome to the Midnight Dynasty… The warring Morelli and Constantine families have enough bad blood to fill an ocean, and their brand new stories will be told by your favorite dangerous romance authors.

WARNING: This book is intended for readers eighteen years old and over. It contains material that some readers could find disturbing. Enter at your own risk…

The series should be read in order for the best reading enjoyment:

Publication Date: April 28, 2023

Genre/Tropes: Reverse Harem/New Adult/Bully/Fraternity/Antihero/Intrigue/Dark Romance

Author: Rachel Jonas and Nikki Thorne

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
A brand new world filled with Savage boys and a fierce girl who fights back just as hard. Once I picked up this delicious, dark filled book, I couldn’t set it down. It’s filled with mystery, darkness, and hot men with issues, check, check, and check please! Then add in an amazing girl who gave back as good as she got…I couldn’t stop turning the pages. I love a heroine that doesn’t lie down and take what’s dished out to her, withering away waiting to be rescued. So huge check to the yes!!

Stevie Heron is searching for clues…I won’t say exactly to what to give anything away, but it sets a target on her back when she does. This target is placed by three guys; Micah, Vince and Ashton. Three guys who all belong to The Brotherhood, a fraternity of sorts, but more than that, these three guys have a longer history of shared trauma and darkness that binds them closer than even college would.

Just a little overview of who these three boys are; They all have a little bit of psycho living under their facade, some more than the others. They all play hockey, but that part of their persona is all off book, however it helps in knowing they are big, fit and have a bit of rage to their personalities. These three are close and have been through a lot, but it comes out as the story progresses, keeping the mystery and allure to not only the book, but also to each guy, so I will keep that anything else about them close to my chest as well. Sorry, not sorry.

When Micah, Vince, and Ash meet and get closer to Stevie, darkness understands darkness and more than they ever would have guessed, things begin to change between them. Hate morphs into something that’s not hate and it throws all of them for a loop. Stevie is a girl that may fit into their world, but does she want to?

With so many twists and turns, dark moments and chemistry through the roof, this jump into a brand new world is intoxicating. Especially with the cliffhanger at the end…I can hardly wait for more!!

About Defender

Travis Wyatt

All I’ve ever wanted was to go to college and get out of Kensley.That small town is all I’ve ever known. I want to be free to be myself, not stifled by small minds in the football-loving town where I grew up.

And then I blew my one and only chance.

So now, I’m just stuck. Stuck in small-town life, with the same small-town people I’ve always known. Stuck where I don’t want to be. Constantly on the defense and hiding secrets about myself. To never be the real me.

I’m lost, and I’m angry. But those people I was desperate to get away from, they don’t stop. They insist on showing me that maybe it’s not about my location.

That maybe I can be free right where I am.

Oakley Easton

Travis is way too uptight. I don’t know why. He has everything a guy could want—a steady job and friends who would do anything for him. A great simple, small-town life. But I guess that’s not what he wants.

He’s always been different. Better. Smarter. Stronger.

Still, I find myself wanting to show him everything he’s dreamed of is within his grasp. That he doesn’t have to be so serious all the time. That he can be himself wherever he is, and I’ll back him up.

Because that’s what I’m good at—on and off the field. I’ll always be his defender.

If he’d only let me.

Review – Unexpected Bliss by Lexi Blake writing as Sophie Oak

Unexpected Bliss ; Nights In Bliss #13
(#13 within a series)

Publication Date: May 9, 2023

Genre/Tropes: MFM/Suspense/Intrigue/Small Town Romance

Author: Lexi Blake writing as Sophie Oak

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
Unexpected Bliss is a book about love, friendship, and finding your home within the people you love.

Elisa Leal heads to Bliss looking for her father, Mel Hughes, the beloved beet lover, all knowing alien aficionado. She is also debating the possibility of starting her life over. A recent survivor of breast cancer and with her career in the military now behind her she’s hoping that once she meets her father, she’ll get some direction. She never expected to get that direction when she meet Hale and Van.

Van is the little brother of Jake Dean. Yes, THE Jake who is married to the romance writer, Serena and the intelligence software developer, Adam. One of the few guys who drives Ian Taggart crazy and I love it! So, Van and his best friend, Hale, have been around a menage relationship for years, making Bliss a very normal place for them to experience.

Elise came to meet her father, Mel for the first time on her life and she’s hoping to stay. While she didn’t plan on meeting more than just her father, she can hardly ignore the two men she’s highly attracted to. The entire town of Bliss is a new experience and it’s cute to enjoy the eye opening moments along with her as she understands whats happening around her.

The same goes for Hale and Van. They’ve been best friends for over a decade and basically finish each others sentences. As they change and blossom in Bliss it’s adorable. They both want Elise, but Van has his own reservations since he’s not sure about his future, which causes tension between everyone, and Hale has his own reservations only because he’s never made a move without his best friend. Hale is so sweetly adorable, especially since he takes a ton of advice from Max, yes, Max!! Can this book get any sweeter? I loved it!!

Van is such an interesting character, actually Hale is too. They definitely complete one another in the very best ways that best friends can. I loved them both equally and together with Elisa they make a really great throuple. The give and take, push and pull between all three of them was perfect.

The entire town of Bliss rallies around these three; Max, Gemma, Nate, Zane, Stef, Mel and so many other beloved characters all step in to give advice and they genuinely want want what’s best for Van, Hale, and Elise and to stay in town.

Unexpected Bliss couldn’t have been a better title for returning to Bliss, Colorado. While neither Hale, Van, nor Elisa grew up there, they felt right at home among the people who lived there. Just as Van has a thought at one point, it’s “Bliss normal”, which really means, it’s the perfect place for the un-normal. Slightly weird or misfits, certainly polyamorous, slightly different…then Bliss is the perfect place for you. I loved it!!

Lastly, the dedication Lexi writes makes me cry every single time. I look forward to that just as much as I do the story. This new book was beautiful, it was therapy, it was also coming home to family. I began reading Bliss stories a long time ago and not only did Sophie Oak restart my reading desire again, especially when I was a tired mother of young children, but she opened up new worlds and passions. Sophie Oak who I later learned was Lexi Blake, all of her characters soon became family members. I crave diving back in and revisting no matter which world I’m reading. She never fails to make me laugh, bring me to tears, and she always squeezes my heart with so much joy. I look forward to each and every release.

Synopsis:
Elisa Leal is looking for some joy in her life. Years of tragedy and struggle took their toll, and now she is searching for new connections to raise her spirits. When she discovers proof that her biological father is alive, she decides to find him and make contact. Her quest leads her to the small town of Bliss, Colorado, and the strangest man she’s ever met—Mel Hughes. He believes in aliens and sasquatch conspiracies, but he’s also kind of awesome. And there might be even more in Bliss to make her smile.

Sylvan Dean and Hale Galloway have enjoyed wandering their way through life, always in motion. Always searching for the woman who could make their life complete. Living in Bliss made them realize it’s time to settle down. Van’s finally going to college and has a job lined up with his brother when he finishes. That job is in Dallas, and while Hale is happy for Van, he can’t imagine leaving Bliss behind. It feels like everything is coming apart until they meet Elisa. She’s the one they have been searching for, and she is worth the wait.

The future looks bright until the guys’ past comes back to haunt them. Danger lurks in every corner, but it may not be the biggest threat to their happily ever after. The citizens of Bliss know how to handle a killer, but handling Elisa, Van, and Hale might require some cosmic intervention.

Review – Defender by Nicole Dykes

Defender; Kensley Panthers #3
(Standalone within a series)

Publication Date: April 17, 2023

Genre/Tropes: New Adult/MM/Opposites Attract/Grumpy-Sunshine/Small Town Romance

Author: Nicole Dykes

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
Oakley Easton is one of those characters who just make you smile. His fun loving attitude and sunshiny chill vibe is infectious and the fact that Travis is the complete opposite of him on every vibe or wavelength just made this story better.

Oakley’s main goal is for everyone around him to have fun. The fact that Travis doesn’t makes it basically Oakley’s personal mission. This book is sweet, while also super steamy and it’s never once malicious which made this a really great read.

While a friendship between Oakley and Travis would seem inevitable; they went to school together, their best friends are a couple, and now they work together, it was not a given, but Oakley wasn’t going to take a no much to Travis’ kicking and rolling his eyes at first. Luckily Oakley is persistent.

I truly love Oakley’s big, huge heart in everything he does. There is this big openness to him that makes him so loveable. I really, really loved him.

Travis may be grumpy, but he’s not exactly living the life he was dreaming about. Living small town life and working in landscaping is not his ideal, but when Oakley breaks down some of his walls that idealistic life of his begins to change.

I loved these two together and how they made one another better. A really great book.

Synopsis:
Travis Wyatt
All I’ve ever wanted was to go to college and get out of Kensley. That small town is all I’ve ever known. I want to be free to be myself, not stifled by small minds in the football-loving town where I grew up.

So now, I’m just stuck. Stuck in small-town life, with the same small-town people I’ve always known. Stuck where I don’t want to be. Constantly on the defense and hiding secrets about myself. To never be the real me.
I’m lost, and I’m angry. But those people I was desperate to get away from, they don’t stop. They insist on showing me that maybe it’s not about my location.
That maybe I can be free right where I am.

Because that’s what I’m good at—on and off the field. I’ll always be his defender.
If he’d only let me.

Blog Tour – Bad Dogs by Riley Nash

Release Date: April 5

I see you, Roman. You want to fight me, and then you want to be so good for me.

Kink is a rich man’s game—high-end clubs, dungeons full of toys. I’m a dirt-poor trailer park boy who makes all his own gear. But I have a plan. If I can film viral BDSM videos, I can rake in enough cash to get my friends and I out of here before we become another gang violence statistic.
First, I need a sub, someone beautiful and obedient.
Anyone but the new boy that just moved into town.
He’s huge and feral and angry, he never speaks, and he’s living in the same house as a cop. He couldn’t be a worse choice. But when I look into his eyes, the flash of submission I see there has me obsessed.
I want him. And I, Scout Moreno, always get what I want.
A gritty, emotional story featuring BDSM, a smaller dom/bigger sub, praise kink, a secret relationship, and found family.

Review – Bad Dogs by Riley Nash

Bad Dogs; Dirty Strays #1
(#1 within a series)

Publication Date: April 5, 2023

Genre/Tropes: New Adult/Dark/BDSM/MM Romance

Author: Riley Nash

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
My heart is wrecked! I’m blown away by this overwhelming, touching story!!

This is the first book I’ve read by Riley Nash and I’m reeling in the feels right now. I honestly did not expect the overwhelming depth and heartache mixed in with the love and friendship that I experienced while reading this book. I am floored by the rollercoaster ride I just went on and I am loving it!

Roman, the young man that bruised and battered my heart in the best way, is such a dichotomy when it came to his character. Roman has been abused by his older brother, who is a dirty cop, for years. On top of the physical abuse his brother emotionally abuses him by manipulating and beating his psyche down because Roman is emotionally mute. Living the life he does doesn’t help Roman’s condition and it breaks my heart on how he truly thinks about himself. It’s not until Roman meets Scout and really let’s go with him that the beauty of who he is, who he’s meant to be really shines through. I wanted to weep so often for Roman, but luckily he had Scout who, even though he’s had a tough life, shines bright for everyone around him.

Scout is such a unique individual. Living in a dumpy trailer, camming to support himself, and yet his perspective on life is always upbeat and positive. He is exactly what Roman needs. Scout doesn’t have family, except for his best friends and they are absolutely fantastic. I loved their openness and quick friendship especially when Roman couldn’t grasp that concept. Roman had been beaten and abused for so long, told he was worthless and no one would want him or like him, trusting Scout and his friends didn’t come easy. Break my heart.

The underlying plot of the book is that Scout is looking for a sub to cam with and Roman is the perfect guy. There is so much more to this book than two guys discovering the ins and outs of BDSM, but it was also a beautiful thing to read about both of them walking the path together because it was new.

I really can’t get over how touching and emotional this book is. However, it is full of lots of darkness to get to that point, but that is what made it so good. I know already that this book will top one of the best books I’ll read this year, it hit that hard. If you are looking to wreck your heart, don’t miss it.

Review – Hypnotize by E.J. Lawson

Hypnotize; Knot their Omega #2
(standalone within a series)

Publication Date: April 11, 2023

Genre/Tropes: Omegaverse/Forced Proximity Romance

Author: E.J. Lawson

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
Another great story with some fabulous twists in this latest omegaverse by E.J. Lawson.

Lawson has created an omegaverse world that has combined the here and now with omegaverse characters that make reading this society like I could step outside and actually be living it. Both books in her new series have been written in a way that haven’t felt super sci-fi or too fantastical, but instead I feel like I’m living in today’s society where alphas, betas and omegas are just an everyday way of life. I like it and considering I already enjoy reading Lawson’s books, so I’m already addicted.

Juliet has been attending Omega Academy, training to be a proper omega for the past several years. She’s been hand selected by a top pack in Alaska to be their omega even though they’ve never met in person. It’s a little impersonal, but it’s her duty to go, but it’s while she’s en route to their home that her plane crash lands in the wild and snowy nothingness of Alaska and she’s the only survivor. Seeing a light in the distance Juliet follows and is thankfully rescued by an alpha that was out checking his own perimeter during the winter storm, or her story might have been over before it really began.

Everett brings the cold and barely alive omega back to his home where his other packmates live, hopefully rescuing her in time, but he certainly didn’t know the effect she would have on him or his two other alphas, Huck and Dean as she begins to recuperate. She isn’t theirs even if they want to claim her. There is tension and heat and so many feelings to feel as this story moves along, but it was the twists I never saw coming that kept me turning the pages. Plus those little nuggets on prior characters, I adore them.

This story has all kinds of twists and turns and delicious heat that brews between three healthy alphas and one rescued omega. I really can’t get enough.

Synopsis:
One of the most renowned packs in the entire country chose me to bond as their Omega. Me.

It doesn’t feel real, and yet here I am, boarding a private jet to their estate.

But instead of arriving at a mansion to hors d’oeuvres and champagne, I awake injured and half frozen at the heart of the Alaskan wild after a terrible accident.

That’s where he finds me. Everett, the mountain man Alpha with the husky voice and warm scent. He carries me through the snow, back to his cabin where two more Alphas batten down the hatches for the storm of a century.

There’s Huck, who looks at me like I’m something to be cherished. And Dean, who seems to want to unravel me until I’m laid bare.

I’m grateful to them for saving my life, but with each day spent trapped together by the storm, it becomes more and more difficult to remind myself…I’m Knot Their Omega.

HYPNOTIZE is a standalone Omegaverse romance told in multiple points of view. It includes MM and MFMM and a happily ever after is guaranteed.

Leo is afraid of heartbreak. 

My shadow. 

My protector. 

He doesn’t want to share.

The crushing burden of wedlock descended upon me, threatening to ensnare me in an unbreakable bond. But I refused to accept my fate; I had to be courageous for my men.

Filled with a burning passion, I declared myself the Bloody Queen and led my men in a daring struggle for their freedom. As we charged into battle, I knew that our victory would not come without great sacrifice.

My love for them was so deep that I was prepared to give up anything and everything to see them safe. To reclaim our freedom and keep us together, I understood that sometimes love demands the highest cost of all: My life.

Publication Date: March 22, 2023

Genre/Tropes: Trilogy/New Adult/Dark/Royal/Reverse Harem/Mafia/Forbidden Romance

Author: Coralee June

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:
Angsty, suspenseful, and full of keep-me-on-the-edge moments, the final book in this dark trilogy did not disappoint.

I was already in love with August and Atticus and how deeply they loved and cherished Christine, but Leo, that boy…ugh, he sure knows how to play with the heart of his queen. It isn’t vindictive, or for spite, Leo is just conflicted. A man torn because of his love for Christine and his deep rooted morals, he constantly goes back and forth on the rightness of what he’s feeling with Christine and sharing her with two other men.

Honestly, as much as I wanted to punch him, I actually loved his internal conflict. To go even further, I really loved each man’s reason for loving Christine, as it all comes out when things begin to disintegrate and they all go morose thinking they aren’t good enough. What’s even better, is when Christine gives her men grief for being sad sobs. I totally pictured Edna Mode from the Incredibles slapping each guy and telling them to, “Get yourself together” LOL. Instead it was Christine doing it in her own way as she is tough, strong, and fights for what she wants through this entire trilogy, and I totally love her.

Fighting for what you want is never easy, especially when it goes against the grain. The love between August, Atticus, Leo and Christine is hard fought through this entire trilogy, but well worth it. All the fights, deceit, love, passion, secrets, and lots of angst that wound their way through this great trilogy. . . I’m going to miss it.

Leo Winthrop knows how to hold a grudge.

He doesn’t trust me, and I can’t blame him.

Prince August and I are reunited, and Atticus has escaped the influence of his powerful family. I’m back in the castle, and it feels like I have enemies around every corner. I want to protect my husband, defend my lover, and eliminate our adversaries. Our guard has made it his mission to destroy me.

Leo is vengeful.

I loathe him.

I love him.

The damaged guard has trust issues and a hero complex.

I have to prove to him that I am a trusted partner in this fight, before it’s too late.

Deadly is the Queen,

Dead are the crown’s enemies.

Blog Tour – We Will Reign by Rachel Leigh

We Will Reign by Rachel Leigh is now live!

    

Enrolling at BCU was supposed to be my chance at freedom. 
An escape from my parents who insist I follow in their footsteps as a Guardian of the Society. 
Keep the members safe—that’s what I’m supposed to do. 
But how can I safeguard the students when I can’t even protect myself?
Someone has been watching me. 
His eyes burn into my soul like a branding iron. At night, he haunts my dreams and transforms them into nightmares. 
And sometimes when I wake, he’s there.  
Standing at the foot of my bed in awe of my existence. 

He isn’t the one I fear most, though. 
There are others who have their eyes on me, too. 
Only their obsession runs deeper than Ridge’s and I fear if I fall under their thumbs, I won’t make it out of here alive. 

There once was a sicko who lurked in the mist. 
He preyed on my soul baring a closed iron fist. 
His stare made me itch while his eyes locked me under his spell. 
But taking his hand may be my only escape from this hell.
