Flurry was a great book about strength, courage, and love. Zander, Damian, and Willa were an amazing team against all the odds they faced and stayed true to each other.

This is my first book by Chantal, and I can't wait for the next book in this series! Yes, it ends on a cliffhanger, but the story was so good.
Astrid is a seer who has grown up keeping secrets and traveling with her best friend August to make ends meet. In a world where everyone is hoping to find their fated mate, Astrid is trying to avoid hers at all costs. When the inevitable happens and she meets him, she has to decide if she hates him or not. I can't wait to find out what happens with the twist at the end.
If you love fated mates, enemies to lovers, he falls first, and opposites attract then you don't want to miss out on this book.

This is my first book by Ali Hazelwood, and I'm hoping that there will be a second book to this series!
I loved Misery and Lowe's story! It was a bit confusing in the beginning, but once I got through that, it was great. As a vampyre, Misery was lost, feeling like she didn't belong anywhere in life. She made a decision to marry the Were alpha to get information, but she realized that there was much more to the alpha than she thought. As the puzzle pieces begin to fall in place, their relationship starts to take a turn that neither of them expected.
If you love fated mates, arranged marriage, and forbidden love, then you don't want to miss out on this book!

"Because what I want to do with you is deliciously sinful.”
I love Blake and Amanda's story! This was a great read with a roller coaster of emotions from new love, lose, to unbreakable friendships. The connection between these two is amazing and sweet.
Blake is the ultimate book boyfriend! He is attentive, possessive, and his filthy mouth will have you melting. Amanda is his match in every way. She is shy but will fight for what she wants, and she is determined to meet her goals in spite of the consequences. Together, they dodge so many obstacles to be together, and they never give up even if it means sacrificing what they love the most.

I loved Capri and Elias' story! The angst was off the charts, but the result was amazing! The love that these two shared was fairytale, but the road to get there was a journey you don't want to miss.
Elias was determined to make something of himself before he settled down with Capri, but that determination cost him the love of his life. Capri loved Elias with all her heart, but she was tired of being put on the back burner to his career and made the decision to cut ties and move forward with her life. When Elias comes back for what's his, Capri is being stubborn and doesn't want to give in, but she can't seem to resist his filthy mouth and sexy charm.
If you love fake dating, possessive alphas, angst, and second chance, then you don't want to miss this hot and steamy read.

This book is dark, twisted, and will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end! The suspense of what would happen next kept me hooked, and I did not see the twists coming.
I loved the possessiveness, the push & pull, but most of all, I liked the light and dark from Ella and the mmc. Normally, you only see the dark of one and the light of another, but when they are mixed throughout the story and with both, its next level. The spice in this book was 🥵🔥!!
