Wave Song by Emma Hamm

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/6.
🌶️🌶️/5.

This was so endearing! I love that Imber & Alys were curious of each other since the first time they saw each other and they just wanted to know one another. I love seeing them explore each other and build this enthralling bond with a language barrier. Don’t worry, they learn each other’s language later on. 😉
I found interesting how Imber species work and the fact that the females are the ones in charge basically and are the ones doing the mating. With that said Imber knows how to mate too. 🤗 he also had a bonus surprise for Alys 🤭.

I just love the little things. Imber brought all sorts of gifts for Alys even when they weren’t talking yet. That was his way of showing her that he chose her to be his mate and it was adorable.

I wish Alys father could’ve done more but I’m content with what he ended up doing in the end. I hoped Alys could’ve stop things for happening but alas it is what it is.
I do believe that Imber’s family will find a better place and everyone will be together again.


King & Bones by Juliette Cross

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/6.
🌶️🌶️/5.

It always great to be back with another Juliette’s stories. 
I loved this world and the possibilities we have. I can’t wait for The Wraith King!

Murgha is a pariah in her home because of who she is but Vallon enters the picture to save her from a terrible fate and show her that she too can be treasured and be loved like others. I loved their story and where this is led us too. I love the little familiar too. I honestly cannot wait to read more about this world and about the people we saw briefly in this story.

The Midnight Arrow

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/6.
🌶️🌶️.5/5.

Wow, this took a turn. I suspected what Lorik was but what he did went a bit far however i understand why he did it and I liked Marion’s response to it all. I wish we got to see the Bellow and Marion meeting Lorik’s sister.
I loved Marion and the journey she had to go on herself. Forgiveness is hard as F but she overcame her hurt and gave forgiveness.
I actually also liked that even though she forgave Lorik, he didn’t forgave himself for what he did to her. I loved them together, I just wish there was more of them after they made peace with each other . 🙂

This was a pleasant surprise. I thought I wouldn't like this book as much as I did just because of that type of fmc it has but I was mistaken.
I actually love Autumn and how she is and I love the way she meshes with Callum.
I actually liked how this became an accidental pregnancy since it's something I don't read often but I especially liked how Autumn handled it. It never crossed her mind to keep it a secret, in fact the fact that she was pregnant was what made her certain that going back to Callum was the right thing to do, like the universe was telling her that's where she belong.
Callum had a lot on his plate but he has Declan by his side so he wasn't a workaholic. Btw I loved seeing Cleo, Haruaki and Declan so much on page since I already read their books so I already know and it makes this book even more special.

I loved the way Autumn reacted to all the things going her way, from discovering who Callum really was to who her father was and what all that entailed. I just liked the way she viewed life.
Despite how it happened, I love the bond she created with Connor, her personal bodyguard, and I hope I see more of them in the future cos I just don't he is smitten by little Emily. 🥰

This was adorable! Dylan was a bit too judgy about his hot new neighbor but he quickly realized that not everything is as they seem.
I loved Marlow and Waffles. They were such a breath of fresh air and they were chaotic and I loved that for Dylan.
Dylan little girl, Lola, was so sweet too! I loved her and how bright she was.
I loved how dedicated Dylan was to Marlow. He cooks meals for the week for her because he knew she wouldn't remember to eat and when she did , it wouldn't be healthy food. I loved that in the beginning even when he didn't see her in the best light, he still mowed her yard and shoveled the snow for her.

I loved Dylan's mother too. She was so funny but also heartwarming. I loved his brothers too and I can't wait for the next book.

I loved this couple! This was the couple I was looking forward to since we got a glimpse of what Declan & Nikita's interactions were like when she moved in next door. I also love a prickly fmc but that can also annoy me depending on how long she stays that way and I'm happy to say that didn't happen with this story. Cala Riley has been hitting their stride with these latest books imo and I can't wait to read Kado.

Nikita has an excuse for a father and she gets sent to Haruaki to be "kept" and to do with her as he wish so he puts her in the same building as Declan and his job was to keep tabs on her until she could be trusted. Suffice to say the first time Nikita & Declan met, there was a sort of hostile banter. Nikita has a very dark view on men but especially the ones that are supposed to love her so she presents an icy facade to the world but underneath all that, there's a girl to give love but also get love unconditionally.
I loved that about her but also how little by little she melts just a little bit at a time. First was with Emily, Callum & Autumn's daughter, and then with Declan. She had a lot to work through. Her life in Russia left her with very bad views so whenever Declan or someone would say or do something, she almost had to convince herself that they wouldn't harm her in any way. With Declan, she pushed what she thought were his boundaries to see how he would react and depending on it, if she could trust him. I loved how she flourished under everyone's care but especially Declan's.
I loved her and I hope we get glimpses of them later on!

Declan was a gentleman from the very beginning, at least since he married Nikita and it was paramount that he wouldn't do anything to her unless she wanted to. Suffice to say, he had too much patience. 🤭
His wife was trying so hard to get his attention and he just thought she wanted him to have a baby. I loved seeing Nikita going into research mode in order to know how to seduce a man. It was adorable but also a bit maddening when Declan would just disappear because otherwise he wouldn't control himself around her.
I loved that once it was clear to Declan that his wife desired him for him, he went all in and started wooing her. Took her on dates, got to know her more and saw what was underneath her armor and he just fell more in love with the beautiful woman that was his wifey and it was beautiful to see. 🥰

I loved the friendship she formed with the other ladies. Once Nikita was married, she was an O'Brien therefore she was family and the women in the family have each other's backs.
Tristano, Declan's BFF, is one of the highlights in the story. He is so endearing and I loved seeing from others pov's how much he cared about Declan and vice versa. They are bromance goals!

I very much like the turns of events and Nikita taking matters into her own hands. Loved to see it.
We can almost see an end to the overarching theme of the series and I can't wait to see all of it unfold.
