Review: The Wallflower Wager

The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Bixy stars!

“You are so maddening. You have a way of provoking me, unlike anyone I’ve ever known. It’s as though I become a different person when I’m around you, and I’m not certain I like her.” He pulled her to him. “I like her.”

The Wallflower Wager was simply perfect. The banter between Penny and Gabriel and the adorable animals added a delicious flavor to the story. There were times when my face hurt from smiling. Penny succeeded to bring the Duke of Ruins to his knees with a bunch o little kitties and a naughty goat.

Another winning book by the fabulous Tessa Dare who everytime succeeds to write fabulous books with alpha heroes to die for and swoon eorthy stories.

“You don’t understand what you’ve done to me,”he whispered. “I don’t understand what you’ve done to me.”

Review: Broken Knight

Broken Knight by L.J. Shen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 heart wrecking stars!

“The heart doesn’t ask for permission to feel things. It simply feels.”


When you finish a book and you feel like you really need a session with a therapist, you know that said book and said story will always stay with you and hold a part of your heart.

“Most kids liked fighting each other. Not me. I only wanted to hurt myself. When my body ached, my heart didn’t. Simple math, and a pretty good deal.”



No words would do Broken Knight justice and I don't know how I would do this without spoiling what definitely shouldn't be spoiled.

When L.J. Shen said that she poured all her heart into this book, she didn't lie because this book as angsty as it may be, it will abso-fucking-lutely rip your soul and wreck your heart.

“Moonshine,” he whispered. “You fill up the empty, dark space—like the moon owns the sky. It is quiet. It is bright. It doesn’t need to be a ball of flame to be noticed. It simply exists. It forever glows.”

If you have enjoyed Leigh's previous books especially the hotholes, wait until you read Broken Knight. This book was overwhelming, I read it twice in one week and couldn't feel I've had enough of it.

“The first words she ever speaks to me in her life, and she decides to break my heart with them. For the longest time, I wished I could unthink you. Unlove you. Unbreathe you. I think I finally can.”

Review: So Steady

So Steady by Eve Dangerfield
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nixalopolous stars!!

  *ARC kindly provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.*

“I’ll hurt you, Nicole. I’ve wanted you for too long, too fucking bad to hold back. You let me into that little pussy, I’ll fuck you until it hurts. I want it too bad not to.”



Let me just take a moment to cool the hell down because this book set me on fire. Nikki and Noah were THE REAL DEAL.. The chemistry between these two totally different characters was out of this world hot and unbelievably sexy.






“I want to fuck you. You know why?”
“No,” she lied.
He wanted to unwrap and corrupt her, be the guy who showed her how good sex could be. What other advantage did she have over the Kellys and Daniellas of this world? He shifted, settling on top of her, one knee on either side of her hips.
“You want dick more than any girl I’ve ever met.”

I won't say that I loved everything about So Steady because there were times where I felt like I really needed to strangle the hell out of Nicole.
She was beautiful, successful, intelligent and independent yet her insecurities and the way her fiance treated her made it impossible for me to love her. Hence, the 4 stars.

It just felt wrong for someone like her to put up with such a hateful person and fight ferociously for such a doomed and toxic relationship.

Noah! Oh Noah!!



God how much I loved that man. I knew from the first moment I met him in So Wild that he was going to be unforgettable and unique and believe me, he is the best Eve Dangerfield has come up with so far.

So Steady is not your normal love story. Eve Dangerfield has this urge to challenge your reading boundaries, test your limits and take you to the unknown.

“Come, you filthy little slut. Come, then you can suck my fingers while I fuck your little pussy raw.”

It's also a book where you will witness two opposites unwittingly fall in love, learn how to deal with their unwanted attraction and overcome their differences.

“Kissing her wasn’t like kissing anyone else. It was like returning to a place you loved. The beach. The forests. His heart was thumping in his ears, his chest; every inch of his skin. This girl, this fucking girl.”

So Steady was a journey to embrace one's fears and insecurities and make the most out of them.

Review: The Moth and the Flame

The Moth and the Flame by B.B. Reid
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 stars!

“I love you. That means I don’t want any of you if it’s not all of you. The good, the bad, the ugly and the beautiful.”

The Moth and The Flame is book 2 in a series/standalone books that should be read in order to be fully enjoyed. It's a friends to lovers story with a B.B. Reid trademark that would blow your mind and leave you in an awe.

Louchana and Wren were brought together by a snowstorm and a gunshot that nearly killed them both but sealed their friendship forever instead.

“I watch your back, and you do what I say. That was the deal.” My nostrils flared even as another part that I was forbidden to share with him gushed. “That doesn’t sound like friendship to me. Seems more like ownership.” For a moment, his eyes seemed to lose focus as he leaned in. “Well, then you’re mine.”

Lines were soon crossed and the platonic friendship was invaded by unwanted feelings that threatened both Lou and Wren's sanity.

“What have you done to me?” He growled as he cupped my breast and brushed my nipple with his thumb. I shivered wanting more. “You give me one taste, and I’m an addict. You allow me one touch, and I’m yours. You’re very cruel, Louchana Valentine.”

But....

Deception, betrayal, lies and so many destructive secrets would challenge Lou and Wren's loyalties putting their friendship, their feelings and their lives at risk.

“Why would I be afraid when I have you to protect me?” “Because someday, it might be me you need protecting from.”

Would flame bring light into Lou and Wren's darkness or would it burn them to ashes?

“I’m the moth to your flame, Lou. I’d rather be burned a thousand times than be free of you.”

Review: Bring Down the Stars

Bring Down the Stars by Emma Scott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars?!

6 stars?!

A bucket full of stars?!



No amount of stars would do this book justice. Just look at the sky and bring down all the stars you see.

This is not a love triangle or your typical angsty romance. This is a heart ripping, soul crashing story where finally as sinful and wrong as it must be, it was all you would want.


Thank you so much for writing such an amazing book and doing such an awesome job to so beautifully shatter our hearts. I just hope book two would fix ghe rippings.

I have loved you with both Hands tied behind my back Bound with pen and ink Paper and words Sealed with someone else’s name until this moment in which I am nothing but a man who loves a woman. There is nothing left to say Except to give all of my heart For you.

Review: Marriage For One

Marriage For One by Ella Maise
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

⭐⭐⭐ + ⭐ stars!


“I was Rose, and he was Jack. We were doomed from the very beginning with those names. You know… the Titanic and all that.”

Slow burn romance is not my favorite thing in the world, add 500 pages to the whole deal and you will have me running the other way.

But there is something about marriage of convenience that draws me to such stories like a moth to a flame.

“I don’t know how to do this with you. I don’t know how to be married.”I stared at the back of his head, blinking and trying to make sure I’d heard him right. I took my time trying to figure out how to answer. “I’ve never married a stranger before either, so I think we’re on the same level here.”



I've been reading since I was fourteen, and you can't possibly imagine the amount of money I spent on books that I should've been maybe spending on make up and and nail polish.

Truth be told, I don't know how to rate this book. I want to stay loyal to the trope that got me into this love relationship with reading.

So here is the thing, I'm giving three stars to the story but I'm adding a star to old time's sake. Not that my rating would make a change or a difference or anything for that matter but it would bring some peace to my nerd-ish brain.

I won't be unfair and say this was a long boring read, because it wasn't. The banter between Jack and Rose was off the charts hot.



“You look worse than you did last week.”
“I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think I’m actually starting to consider keeping you around as my husband, permanently, Jack. I’m really liking these compliments so far, but I’m warning you, you can’t blame me when all these pretty words start to go to my head.”




Don't get me started on the chemistry, the feelings, and the love story between Jack and Rose because they were utterly explosive.



“I didn’t think she realized what she was doing or the fact that she was moaning and melting into me, pressing and pulling at the same time as I took her mouth ruthlessly. I’d been so hungry for her touch and taste.”



See! Definitely explosive...



It's just the length that was to much for my liking because believe me, with all the small details and the descriptions, you just get lost and distracted that you loose your focus and thus your Rose and Jack passion.

Review: Pretty Reckless

Pretty Reckless by L.J. Shen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Skull eyes stars!


“What would you have asked of me if I took the sea glass?”
“To save me all your firsts,” he whispers somewhere between my ear and mouth as his body brushes away from mine.





Leave it to Leigh Shen to turn a thirty something into a fictional cougar by falling in love with an eighteen years old fictional character.



Where to start and what to say other than this book was everyfuckingthing.
More vicious than Vicious more outrageous than Ruckus and more vindictive than Scandalous.

“you’re not my step-sibling, foster brother, or a part of the family. You’re a stray dog, last of the litter, most unlikely to be adopted, and a charity case.”

I can't even find the words that would do this book justice. I'vd read and listened to everything Leigh Shen but Pretty Reckless is hands down the best so far. Venomous, toxic and hurtful but so freaking good it will leave you in a serious book hangover.
