Dangerous Desires by Dina Hawthorn, Ann Howes, Celeste Archer, Celeste Archer
4.0
I've never read an anthology before and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this collection of short stories. The stories had great Halloweenie vibes and the perfect amount of delicious smut. Although they aren't necessarily spooky, they definitely set a certain tone and have you wishing there was more. This was such a perfect read to set the mood for spooky szn. I will definitely be checking out more from this author.
It's Me, Charlie by C.M. Guidroz

After seeing a few friends read this book I just had to get in on it too. And omg idk what the hell I read. This book gave me the ick all the way thru. It's reapply plays on the thought that being taken and held captive is only hot when the man taking you is tall, and handsome. When it's a short balding itchy man.. it is the biggest ick. Charlie is full on living in delulu land. Deff give this lil book a read. So chaotic and unhinged

OH. MY. GAWD yet another cliffhanger if you will.
I absolutely love the relationships that are developing here. Reid and Mav are finally on the same page and realize that they really are a lot like each other. JD continues to be my fav. Like I understand our girl Alana is married to Mav but man do I love seeing her with JD.
Alana finally opened up and confirmed what Reid was suspecting. As far as their plans, they are getting a bit closer, and now that they know the whole story and have Mav working along side them they have more of an advantage.
I can't wait to see how their relationships keep developing, can't wait to see Victor and everyone as pay for what they done.

Haunting Me by Izzy Ravas

I had the pleasure of beta/arc reading this beauty and omg am I in love.
Wes is everything you want in an MMC. Stalker, masked, possessive and protective and will absolutely annihilate anyone who wishes you harm. He looks out for you and leaves some Tylenol on your nightstand to help with your hangover. He unalives bad people. Takes you for breakfast after a very steamy night.
Layne our FMC has a traumatic past that keeps her up at night and has her numbing her mind to be able to sleep. Lives her day to day working at a record store and lives above a pizza shop (which has its perks when the owner is your landlord and gives you free pizza). Her life's a lil hectic and she's procrastinator, getting to work late and not ordering her Uber in time; making her have to walk home .. in the dark..late at night..with headphones on not aware of her surroundings (catching my drift here)?
This story will teach you to lock your windows and doors (or not, if you want a sexy masked man to climb thru your fire escape)
This is novella with 13 chapters long and let me tell you, you will want to have so much more from this duo.

Butcher & Blackbird by Brynne Weaver
5.0
Rowan and Sloane are everything.
I loved this story so freaking much and the dynamic between our two main characters is just delicious.
Rowan absolutely adores and admires our girl Sloane so much. From page one you know how much he is infatuated by her and just in awe of her and who she is. He is a big fan of the Orb Weaver and her "artistic" methods. Rowan loves Slaone so much and I loved seeing how protective he is of her.
This book is full of laughter and cute moments... Some weird ones, and some that you will never forget (never eating cookies and cream ice cream ever again).
Also, that extra spicy at the end is a 10/10. It was absolute perfection

OH. MY. GAWD!! this book was absolutely phenomenal, a god damn masterpiece. You think you know what's going on, but you've got no damn idea. The twists and turns and drops this book will take you on, omg, prepare. This book deserves an award
Saint is the perfect combination of Sin and Tyson for me, you get the best of both worlds.

A Touch of Gold and Madness by K.L. DeVore

5 damn stars! I was fortunate enough to read this as an ARC, and while I'm not one to read fantasy books, when I tell you this book was absolute GOLD, you better believe it. The characters are so well-written, the chemistry between them, the character development. You fall in love with each and every one of them. You are sucked into this story going through the motions of everything that's going on and are absolutely enthralled. You feel all the emotions as trauma is revealed. There are so many twists and turns, and secrets that slap you in the face. Every decision starts to make sense and will leave you absolutely speechless. It sets up the groundwork for book two so damn well and I cannot wait to read that beauty once it's out.
