This book was just outstanding. I think I say it everytime I read one of this arthurs book's that it can't get any better until she writes another series. This is a must read. I'm not giving thing's away you just need to read it and enjoy the ride.

Oh mylanta the secrets that were revealed in here were dropping everywhere then the plot twists that were twisting as everything started to come together, but still the see you next tuesday Lawrence what's he cooking up, because you know it's going to come back on Nash. Ugh this series has me in a chokehold as we wait for the next book. There was so many, many thing's that went on you just need to strap in and hold on. Omg Liam finally gets it that's all I'm saying.

This book was so good. I couldn't put it down one I got into the story. This story will take you through all the feels as it follows Quinn who's an omega that at the age of 14 was stolen and ending up in her own personal hell, but she meets Linus who's another omega 10 years later that she feels an connection to as they both try to stay alive hoping one day they'll have their freedom. What they don't know is that the 2 best  friends of Quinn's Callum and Duncan have been trying to find Quinn ever since she disappeared. Will they find her in time? You'll just have to read the book and find out. Definitely a must read.

I cannot believe how this book ended. I have been a big fan of this series from day 1, but I felt like there were missing pieces of the story and that it was rushed. 

This is the final book in the series where Garrett finally gets his hea. I guess I didn't pick up that he's a lil unhinged until now lol. You get a lil taste of his crazy towards the end of the book, and the way it ended, it leaves questions and not enough answers. 

Rose was just the sweetest person, you couldn't help wanting to befriend  and protect her, as she's been used her whole life, so her trust in people was not there.

Oh boy grab your tissues as Lena and Reign deal in their own way with the after effects of losing Cruz. This book was emotional it had me reaching for the tissues pretty much half way through it. You couldn't help but want to hug these character's so they would realize they didn't have to go it alone. They both have felt a pull towards each other, but never would act on it, so they buried it, but as he starts teaching her to race the connection they felt starts to flair up, and making them both feel guilty, but at the same time it feels right.

I did struggle with reading this as the grief was so strong, but I'm glad I did stick with it, because it wouldn't be a Nova Kane book if there wasn't drama and danger thrown in.

Absolutely fantastic!!

This book from the start to the cliffhanger it ended on had me trying to figure out just wth was going on. It definitely has twists and turns you don't know who's lying or who can even be trusted. I loved the suspense that shrouds this "Addams Family" school, because there's definitely something sinister lurking behind the walls of the school. I so need the next book, because I have a feeling our fmc Talia is going to be a force not to be messed with.

Oh mylanta was this book so freaking good, and so hard to put down, so it's definitely a recommend. Oh my Daddy Sinclair is just the cats meow. I loved that we get to see the softer side of him as well as the man who takes charge and doesn't allow for excuses.

This is the 3rd book in the Devil's Society that if you haven't started the series, just why not, but start with Elijah's story Haunted by the Devil he is a special kind of person that you won't know whether to love him or hate him, as each book will have other character's from previous book's  as each book is told. 

Rylee is one badass she doesn't take shit from anyone especially Nathaniel. She has no problem in taking control of him as he will do or give her anything she wants he's so hooked on her. The chemistry between these two was fire.

Just wth was that ending...cheese and crackers this girl cannot catch a break from the drama she keeps finding herself in. This picks up from where the cliffhanger ended from the previous book leaving Raven to make hard decisions after what happened and the boy's getting into it. Raven pretty much is having to figure thing's out as she goes as she learns to rely on herself and not on other's all thanks to Beckett. Raven and Zavier are having to hide out from the mafia due to something Zav was dragged into thanks to Ander who disappeared, and finally shows up and they're not happy to see him, but he sets his sights on Raven. I don't know if I'd trust him, because he's hiding something, and the way the book ended on that cliffy Raven knows to. I cannot wait to get my hands on the next book.

I very much loved this story. This is the first book in a new series for this arthur, and it was amazing, so I can only imagine how good the rest of the book's are going to be. I know I can't wait.

Omg what in the hell did I just read? I just knew from the blurb I was going to be taken on a wild af ride plus I didn't know it was going to make me question everything, but boy did it ever.

Romy is looking for her missing friend not knowing her searching is putting her in someone's crosshairs...the Crown's, and doesn't realize she's in danger, until she wakes up, in a strange room that's not her dorm, and realizes she's been taken.

All I know is you need to read this book, because this girl is freaking hooked after reading it. The conspiracy will have you questioning everything that happens in this book, and this is just the 1st book in a new  series for this arthur.
