Twisted Fate by Liz Hambleton
5.0
✨ARC Review✨
In this world, many choose to be a searcher while some choose to be a settler. For searchers, when you touch a bond is awakened but to numbers have been dropping. Imagine everywhere you go people are trying to touch your hands or a part of your body to see if they are bonded to you.
For those who would rather get to know a person on a deeper level where love grows. They become settlers and take the choosing into their own hands. Instead of the traditional rings, they get tattoos.
Emry’s childhood comes with a lot of trauma but after what she experienced and went through. She decides happiness is more important and she settles with Sebastian. The person who will always be in hero in her eyes.
Theo living on borrowed time like his father. Is neither a searcher nor a settler. He would rather retire early and live his last days beachside with women around.
While Emry is trying to get away from all the hands touching her. She accidentally runs into Theo and the unexpected happens.
How strong Emry is despite what happened to her. I truly enjoyed how she was strong-willed and always wanted to see others happy. Sebastian is a man anyone can easily fall in love with. He’s supportive, strong, accepting, and willing to give up his happiness. He loves her no matter what happens between her and Theo after they are bonded by accident.
“He’s part of your home. He’s part of this. Of us. That’s why he’s here. He’s not going anywhere.”
When she’s with her husband Theo is feeling the effects. I laughed so much!!! As she and Theo continue to get to know each other. You can’t help but like him as well.
That cliffhanger!!! I started book 2 right after. There was no way I could wait.
Thank you Liz Hamleton for allowing me to be a part of your ARC team! As always, my review is my opinion and thoughts.

“He’ll burn down the world to find her. I’ll fan the flames.”
Book two picks right where we left off and that major cliffhanger. I cried so hard at the end of this book!

Powerless by Elsie Silver

✨ARC Review✨
“That when it comes to you, I’m powerless.”
After reading Flawless, I’m happy that now it’s Jasper’s time!
A runaway bride, a distraction, one road trip, and a decade of feelings lingering change everything for these two.
Sloane has always been in love with Jasper since the moment she met him but with their age difference. Friends was the only option to keep him in her life. Fast forward to her being engaged and arranged to be married off to an NHL player.
After a horrible accident, Jasper finds himself young and living at Harvey’s with his friends who have become his brothers.
“You’re going to help me literally become a runaway bride?”
Jasper will always be there for Sloane when she finds herself shocking news on her wedding day. He helps her escape from making the worst mistake of her life.
“See, Sloane? You can wear someone else’s ring, but we both know you’ve always been mine.”
One road trip and the realization and trigger has Jasper going after what he has always wanted. And that’s Sloane.
Harvey: “Y’all went and made the kissing cousins saying a real-life thing.”
Beau: “I think they might be doing more than kissing. Look how red she is.”
When Harvey gives him that white envelope. I cried so hard! That whole part was so beautiful. Jasper’s life may not have always been easy with what he went through but he has his founded family and that means everything.
Harvey: “It’s hereditary. I mean, look at you.”
Jasper: “Harvey, I’m not so sure about your understanding of the word hereditary.”
Harvey: “Been raising cattle my entire life. I know the meaning. I know there’s nature. And there’s nurture. Don’t care much if I had a role in making you. I know in my heart I had a role in making you who you are today. And I’m damn proud of you, Jasper. “
This book touched my soul in so many different ways. Sloane has never had someone as supportive as Jasper in her life. While Jasper has always longed for the unconditional love Sloane has always shown him.

Torn by Carian Cole
5.0
✨ARC Review✨
“Sharing such an unconditional, timeless love and connection with him is indescribable. To me, it is the very essence of a fairy tale.”
This is my first book by Carian Cole and I’m already a fan! (Read the 2nd book as well). I could not put this book down and it made me started the next one right after.
Toren’s best friend had a baby very young. With the three of them always together and a family. Toren became Kenzi’s Godfather.
From the moment he first held her, he felt a connection. Over the years, he helped raise her and she was always following him around. They had an inseparable bond. Kenzi told him when she was five years old that she was going to marry him.
One forbidden kiss changes everything. From that moment on, they both can’t stop thinking about each other. Kenzi makes it clear that she still feels the same way as she did when she was younger.
From tension, longing, and two souls that can’t help but love each other unconditionally. They find themselves together and hide it from the world.
I loved everything about this book! I’ve read a lot of taboo books and this was on the lighter side and may not be for everyone but I enjoyed it. Of course, there is an age gap and some may not agree but love is love. I related to Kenzie because I was around her age with the same age gap.
