1001 Dark Nights: Bundle Fourteen by J.B. Salsbury, Joanna Wylde, Kristen Ashley, K. Bromberg, Carrie Ann Ryan

5.0

Anyone who knows me knows how obsessed I am with the 1001 Dark Nights books. OBSESSED!! This world gives us pieces of series we’ve read by authors we love and offers an introduction to authors we haven’t tried before. What is there not to like? Every Dark Nights tale is breathtakingly sexy and magically romantic. They ain’t lying. With Bundle 14, I got the chance to read two books from series I’ve already sampled so this was a great treat.

The books included are:
1. Rock Chick Reawakening: A Rock Chick Novella by Kristen Ashley
I already read this one and my review can be found here: http://bit.ly/2i4BuLR

2. Adoring Ink: A Montgomery Ink Novella by Carrie Ann Ryan
Trust and believe that anything from this series is hot and lovely. This author never disappoints and is a fave of mine in the Dark Nights series

3. Sweet Rivalry by K. Bromberg

4. Shade’s Lady: A Reapers MC Novella by Joanna Wylde
I wasn’t the biggest fan of this series but I liked this one. Maybe it was because it made me laugh, or its sympathetic characters, or Shade’s over-the-top alpha ways, or Mandy’s refusal to buckle up for the ride, but I enjoyed myself with this one. It made me want to take another chance with the rest of the Reapers.

5. Fighting for Flight by JB Salsbury
I read this one before, back when I first fell in love again with the romance genre. But because I was still new to this world, I only 5 starred it without reviewing it. So, here goes:

Jonah was a prized MMA fighter, set to grab the championship. He’s not looking for any distractions. Having never been in a relationship, staying away from one is easy. Until it isn’t.

The best thing to ever happen to me shows up in coveralls and a pair of Chucks when I least expect it. I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her.

Raven never had things easy. Her mom never showed her affection, she’s never thought much of herself to even try to date someone, so she lives her days as an amazing mechanic. She’s steeped in loneliness and it was easy to see even if she couldn’t identify it. And her whole entire world changes the day she meets Jonah.

These two were impossible not to fall in love with. Their journey to finding love with each other was easy, however, the road to happily ever after would be far from it. Raven’s mother was a prostitute, her father was her pimp (one of the most infamous pimps in Vegas), and he has every intention of turning her into a profitable commodity. Will Jonah be able to save his girl and ride off into the sunset?

“This whole time I thought I was living. But the day I met you, the lights came on. You fill me with things I thought I’d never feel again.”

There’s a lot of swoony moments, the hero is a heartthrob, the heroine is so adorable it’s not funny, there’s some suspense, and the side characters, especially Blake, made this story refreshingly unique. I read the entire series and I’ll tell you this… it is one series not to be missed.

Release: Jan. 30, 2018 | Genre: Contemporary Romance Anthology | Heat: Ranges between 3-3.5 out of 5
