Brutal Prince Bonus Scene by Sophie Lark, Sophie Lark
4.0
I loved this spicy little addition to Callum and Aida’s story. It really showed the banter and the love that they have for each other. Definitely not something that everyone does on roller coasters and the hall of mirrors, but I reckon some have definitely thought about it before.
“Careful,” she whispers. “I have a poisonous kiss.” “I know that,” I growl. “I remember our wedding day.” She snickers, not sorry at all.

His Mouthpiece (The Prequel): Merrick & Jocelyn by Nicki Grace
4.0
This is a first read by this author, and now I just wanna read the rest of her books. I think this is definitely one of my favourite BDSM books so far. This is a spicy BDSM story revolving around a contract. A troupe that has been done many times before, but this one really has stood out to me. This book didn't really have many twists and turns in the storyline, instead the plot focus on growth (both physically and emotionally) and exploring Jocelyn and Merrick’s relationship. The story starts with a spicy mfm scene that very well sets the tone of the rest of the book. A strong message that lets you know you’ll be on a ride, full of dominance and and a whole lotta spice. The relationship between the two characters was amazing, the book showed a refreshing side to the Dom/sub arrangement. You get to see all the different ways how one is emotionally involved in this kinda of relationship, and how that can play out. You got to see these two evolve not only individually but as a couple as well. I definitely enjoyed the the banter between these two as well. This was definitely a book you don’t want to put down, I found myself pretty much reading it in one sitting.
“You could have just said, you’re a cool chick, Jocelyn," I teased, imitating his voice. "You didn’t have to make me want to cry." "Well, Jocelyn, you are a cool chick... my cool chick,"

Needy by Luna Kayne

This is a quickly spicy bdsm short story. It contains one night the the chapters share together. This is almost not plot, but a whole lotta spice. I recommend it for in between books when you just want some spice. I believe that this book will eventually become a prequel for the extended story of these characters.

Hunting the Reaper by C.A. Rene, R.E. Bond

This was just as good as the first one, such a good continuation of the story. Just as you thought they probably couldn’t Selene and her men are crazier than before. This book definitely had a few twists and turns that I was not expertly, especially closer to the end. That last book featured some MM scenes, and while this one did as well, we also got to see some FF scenes. Although this book was plot heavy and focused on Selene trying to find her sister, the spice was off the charts. This series is unlike anything I’ve read before, the spice, craziness and violence is amazing. This is slowly becoming my favourite series with each book.

Beckham Sinclair, that’s it, that’s the review.
“You can bring me to my knees any time you want, Margo. Matter of fact, I think I’ve been on them from the moment we met.”
This book is definitely a must read, if I could give it more than five stars, I think I would. The author marketed this book so well, it was pretty much my entire feed, on all platforms, the week up to the release. All the little snippets of scenes, slowly chipped away at me until I just preordered it. Plus this book pretty much had most of my favourite tropes. I loved every second of this book and found myself highlighting quite a bit, (113 highlights is a bit excessive, I know, but I couldn’t help myself). These two had so much chemistry which was evident right from the start of the story, even tho Margo wouldn’t admit it at first. God the things that beck did to get even a chance to talk to this woman, and then what he did to be able to call her mine. Jesus, I don’t think a single man could compete. Whether it was the humour, sweet fluff or the hot spice, my cheeks were bright red and warm this entire book. Especially in the honeymoon sweet in the storm, a cliché, but so so good.

I love that they decided to go with Madam Lynn’s story in this book. We see her in the other books, but never know much about her. She’s helped many subs and doms find their happiness, all while she had been searching for hers, Gabriel. The fact that these two spent 20 years apart and turned into different people that their love for each other didn’t fade.
“She’s still my every fantasy, not just because she’s a vision but because of every little piece of her that’s been etched into my soul.”
I’ve only read the first (bought) in this series, but this one was on a whole other level. This book, although completely different stories, reminded me of Broken, also by Willow. Both books had my heart beating but also in a few moments, reaching for tissues. This was a beautiful story, filled with the right amount of spice and suspense.
“This is what I want. More than the money or the jewels or the gifts, I just want him to want me. I want this man. I need him.”

I got to read Change of Heart by Amber Terrell. It’s such a cute second chance about a gym owner and a realestate developer. I absolutely loved that recipes for all the baked goods were added at the back, such a great addition. Read this in one sitting, a sweet n easy short story.

Take My Daddy, I'll Take Yours by Jenika Snow
3.0
I have been waiting for this one since Jenika gave us a little snippet on her Patron. I absolutely love Jenika’s books but this one wasn’t my favourite. I will say, the spice in the book, as always, was pretty darn good, especially the first night. Carter is definitely the Alpha older guy, that people dream about. The book happens over 5 days, they meet and fall in love in that time. I think for me the reason that this book is 3 stars is probably that I don’t like that the whole instalove thing, I feel like I wanted some more interactions between the characters before they say I love you, but that is this genre. If that’s your thing then this book is definitely for you. I know it was a shortish book (<150 pg) but I just felt like something was missing, and it was going too fast. But overall this was a pretty nice read, just wish there were some more.
“You gonna take what I’m offering, sweetheart?” I sucked in a breath at those words. My mind was straight in the gutter. Sir, I’ll take whatever you offer.”

Claiming the Reaper by C.A. Rene

During this whole series, I feel like my heart was ripped out of my chest and put back in, especially in this book. I just love Santos and Darius' relationship, those two have my heart. The relationship between the five of them has changed over the books, especially each of their relationships with Selene. Although they are all complete psychos, they have a kinda wholesome relationship, in their own kinda way. All the twist turns and questions from other books were answered in this book. And although it was a small time jump the ending was perfect, and very much them. I think this series has slowly become one of my favourite all-time series. I haven’t read the Cat and Mouse Duet, but I feel that people who liked those books should quite enjoy these.
