When you wonder what life is like on the other side but you're not allowed... meet Amor. He'll change your opinion on what it means to be cupid. A short vacation to the human world finds him in love with someone he shouldn't be but he finds his way around the rules to spend a mortal lifetime with her.

Eva's tough. She doesn't want love, not after all she's been through. But she finds she needs love more than she thought.

I loved this book and the character development. I wanted to hear more about how Amor is going to love the woman of his heart until he suffers his mortal death. Would that have been enough? Oh so many questions.

I loved this book. This book was far better than I could have imagined it was going to be. I felt such love (sorry Amanda) for Jack that I wanted to steal him away and throw Amanda to the wolves. I love having book boyfriends and Jack is among the best of them.

This book has great character development, laugh out loud moments, and extra spice. I look forward to reading more from Irene Bahrd.

Alexis and Jordan by Victoria Silk

3.0

While I enjoy quite a bit of spice in my books (Smut Slut with no shame here!) this book seemed to be 2/3 smut (yay smut) and 1/3 story. I think that there could have been so much more added to this book that wasn't. I'm headed off to read the second book in the Fated Mates of Miami #2 so here's hoping there's a little more story added to this one.

I received an audiobook copy in exchange for an honest review, and... here it is! <3

Thief of Silver and Souls by Eva Chase

5.0

A book this good comes around maybe once every 10 years and I’m glad I was a part of the journey. If book two is anything like book one, I’m sold. 

If you like Nora Roberts’ fantasy books then you’ll love this book!

I was given this book in exchange for an honest review, and damn I’m glad I was!

Welcome all smut lovers to the hottest of the series! If you think that burning rubber on a Talladega race track is hot, it's got nothing on Ms. Pepper's latest book. Now, before you think that all there is to this book is steam... you're mistaken. The character development and growth are nothing short of masterful! 

Tori is a hot mess waiting to happen, and her own demons bring most of it on. She's trying to conquer those demons, but when she runs into Will freaking Joseph, she's toast. Can she deal with Mr. Scarey and all he has to offer her? Will what he offers be enough for her? Most importantly, will it be enough for him?

I want to thank Valerie Pepper for the opportunity to read/review this wonderful book. (I can't wait for print now so I have all three!)

What do you do when you realize you’re in love with your best friend but you know they’re not into you in that way? Well, you boycott Valentine’s Day and anything else you can to make your bestie happy, of course. 

Dani has woven the magic of love into this hot 🥵 🌶️ story. Loved every page. I wish this were a big honkin’ epic novel. I loved the characters so much and was very sad to say goodbye to them. 

I’d like to thank the author for the opportunity to review this novella in exchange for my honest review.
