Emperor of Wrath by Jagger Cole
5.0
This book is practically a five-star sensation! It’s got it all: charm, seduction, and a hefty dose of danger. Kenzo Mori, the head of the Mori Mafia Family—is so fucking hot, with physical traits of a samurai and a Viking. And Annika? She’s a fierce Serbian goddess with a fire that just can’t be contained. Their chemistry is so explosive, it might just blow your mind!
What We Keep by Jennifer Millikin

"Some people claim love makes a person weak, but I disagree. Real love forces a person to do the hard work. It will ask you to get uncomfortable, to expose the wound, to confront what hurts you most. That requires strength. Fortitude. And above all else, compassion."
Just finished reading "What We Keep" and it was my first time reading a first responders romance. Gabriel is really sweet, charming and heroic, not to mention those brown eyes!! A fairytale like beginning, had me fearing for the worst to happen. It was heartbreaking to see Gabriel carrying so much pain from his past, living a life that was never meant for him to begin with. I couldn't help but feel bad for him.
Avery, on the other hand, is incredibly strong and resilient, who steps upto care for her little sister after their mother died. Her selflessness is truly admirable. When Gabriel comes to rescue her from burning house, it feels like real life fairytale. But in order to keep their relationship picture perfect they ignore their flaws and end up making huge mistakes.
This is more than just a romance novel but a story of personal growth and transformation. Avery's transformation throughout the book is inspirational, and character development of both her and Gabriel is spot on. Other than that, I also loved Cam's character and her witty responses.
I loved Author's writing style, it was easy to understand and engaging. While it didn't had me crying out loud but it definitely was an emotional read for me. If you are also a fan of emotional read like me?? And second chance romances, then I highly recommend this book!! Also a firefighting hero!!

Ruthless Sinner by Cora Kent

⚠️ Warning: This book contains intense themes including violence and trauma. ⚠️
I’m new to dark romance and this one definitely made me feel a bit funky. The female protagonist, Adalina is feisty, resilient, and has had a traumatic past since she was born. The male lead, Dante on the other hand, carries his own baggage and has some unconventional kinks that would not be everyone’s cup of tea.

The Isle of Repentance by S. Matisko, S. Matisko

Tropes:
◾ Found family
◽Reverse harem
◾ Politically charged
◽1st person POV
◾Island setting
◽ Dystopian future
◾Hot dudes
◽Witty banter
This book is a refreshing change of pace for me as I have never read reverse harem tropes before. The story is greatly influenced by politics and the cruel political leaders. It's about an Isle of Repentance where murderers, terrorists, and other monsters are sent on a death sentence.

The Heartbreaker by Marni Mann

This book is, without a doubt, the sweetest one I’ve read so far! It’s really nice to have a story without villains or unpleasant characters (except for Rhett, I'm sure there's a reason behind it that we'll uncover in next book
Twisted Knight by K. Bromberg
5.0
Holden Knight is everything you could ever want and more! I absolutely loved him! He’s the perfect combination of traits I look for in any male character. Rowan Rothschild is a strong, stunning woman that I can’t help but envy. Their story? Incredible. And the way it ends? Trust me, it's not over yet!
This book definitely gave me King of Sin vibes, and I ate that up, so I knew I’d love this one too! The witty banter and just the right amount of spice were perfect. There’s a clear attraction, along with the classic hate-to-love dynamic, which is my absolute favorite. Plus, it's a secret relationship in a workplace setting—and they get up to a lot in the office!
Holden’s surprises are so thoughtful, and I love how jealous he gets when anyone else touches Rowan! I truly adored both of them. It's been a while since I read something I completely loved, and Holden’s thoughtful surprise even had me in happy tears.
If you enjoyed King of Sin, you definitely need to pick this one up! I highly recommend it. Even though this was the first book I’ve read from this author, they’re now on my auto-buy list!

Tide Bound by Lauren O'Brien
4.0
I haven’t read many seafaring adventures, but since I enjoyed shows like One Piece and Outer Banks, I thought I’d love this book too. Overall, I can say I liked it, though it’s a hefty read with events happening back to back. At times, it felt a bit stretched. I personally loved the sea adventures and all the unique species, their powers, and the other magical elements. I was expecting more romance, but that wasn’t really the focus of the story.
I’m not a big fan of politics, so I didn’t enjoy those parts as much, and I really didn’t like Ario’s family, no matter what their reasons were. But what I loved most was how Ario and Kiojah always had each other’s backs. The author’s writing was also a highlight for me—easy to follow and vivid enough that I could picture everything happening.
So, if you enjoy seafaring adventures mixed with politics and war, you should definitely give this one a try!

MY VIEWS:
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
This is one of the most ADORABLE books I've read so far! I absolutely love grumpy Dawson, who completely softens around Reese and doesn't tolerate anyone else except her! The way he cares for and supports Reese is so sweet. I can only imagine how irresistible he must be! And Reese, with her strong-willed personality, stands her ground when she needs to. I feel for her and the challenges she's facing, but thankfully Dawson is there to save the day.
This is my first book by Ann Einerson, but it definitely won't be my last—she's officially on my auto-buy author list. It's a quick read, and I enjoyed every bit of it. The writing is super easy to follow, and I couldn’t stop grinning like an idiot from the beginning. The level of spice was just perfect for my taste.
If you're into fast-paced, cute workplace romances, this one is definitely worth checking out!

Elevator Pitch by Evelyn Leigh

If you're looking for THE PERFECT BOOK BOYFRIEND, then look no further than GREYSON! He’s thoughtful, caring, and does all the right things without even needing to be asked. I absolutely adore him, and he's everything you can ask for and even more. I also loved Selah and her charming, Hapless In Love Book Club (If it ain't got spice, no dice) friends. Selah’s journey, especially considering everything she’s been through, is truly inspiring. Her bravery and growth are so beautifully portrayed.
