Blurb:

Everything about me is a sham.

I’ve been living with my own lies for so long, I don’t even know who I am. This role I’ve been playing is becoming boring and the man I’m turning into feels like a stranger.

With each deception I dole out, another five are needed to keep the truth hidden, and it’s all teetering on a weak foundation.

My life is like a house of cards, and the wind blows pretty strong here in Whitsborough, constantly threatening to scatter my fragile façade.

With the sudden appearance of someone from my family’s past, everything comes into focus, and I’m tempted to exhale the breath I’ve been holding in my chest.

Just to watch those cards land where they may.

⭐⭐⭐⭐💫

Gabriel's Deception is the final book in the Whitsborough Progenies . I hate to admit, This is my first book from the Whitsborough Chronicles. It was seriously easy to follow. Although, it is a standalone, WORD OF WARNING: there's a quick rundown of the previous books. So, it's best to read all of the previous books first. However, if you're like me and really don't mind spoilers, it won't ruin this intense ride. It actually makes me really want to go back to where it all started. The instant connection that Danny and Gabe had was literally everything. Of course, there's bitter secrets and dark history between the two (and in the small town in general) , but that makes it even more exhilarating and delicious. As always, I am NEVER disappointed by C.A. Rene's writing. I was hooked by the suspense, emotional, full of twists and turns, full of hot MM, age gap action and it literally had me at the edge of my seat. I seriously need to find the time to go back to the very beginning. This is sooooo good!!

Blurb:

USA Today bestselling author RC Boldt delivers a seductively unique romantic suspense with a paranormal twist in Beyond My Darkness...

Twelve years ago, I fled, vowing to never again use my power. But everything changes when I break that vow and bring two bodies back to life in the morgue.

It sends me spinning directly into his orbit.

Arrogant. Menacing. Enigmatic. That’s Bronson Cortez, the notoriously violent gang leader who remains elusive to authorities.

He breaks the law at every turn and answers to no one. But when he offers me an alluring glimpse of what lies beneath that iron-clad exterior, I realize there’s more to him than meets the eye.

The man who fiercely guards his heart somehow manages to claim mine.

But he doesn’t know the truth about me.

I wonder if he could be the first to accept me for who I am—what I am.

I wonder if he’ll be the first to see beyond my darkness.

❤❤❤REVIEW❤❤❤

Beyond My Darkness was actually my very first book by R.C. Boldt. I am normally a creature of habit, and really hesitant with "new-to-me" authors. Something was telling me that it's okay to try something new. I followed my gut and it was absolutely right.. I was blown away by the story telling. It was beautifully written. The fact it had some paranormal elements, made this story soooo much better. Bronson and Georgia were literally everything. From their banter and Georgia testing him, to the steam. This was absolutely incredible. I can't wait to read another book by R.C. Boldt!

REVIEW: Arrows and Apologies (Monsters & Muses Book 4) by Sav R. Miller

 

Arrows and Apologies (Monsters & Muses Book 4) by Sav R. Miller 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09Z6TJ58T/

Blurb:

They say every proud man must fall.

Mortals who fancy themselves gods will one day kneel.

I thought myself invincible.

Apollo on Earth.

Mocked my brother when he succumbed to such a fate.

Before I noticed the blue-haired nymph lurking in the background.

Cora Astor shouldn’t have come to this island.

She sneered in my direction, beguiling me with her disgust.

As a Wolfe, hunting is in my blood.

Getting what I want is my nature.

Even when I know I can never have it.

Though I cannot keep her,

I plan to relish the chase.

**Arrows and Apologies is a dark, contemporary romance inspired by the Apollo and Daphne myth. It is NOT fantasy or a retelling.**

🧡🧡🧡REVIEW🧡🧡🧡

Arrows and Apologies is the 4th book in the Monsters and Muses series. This is  an interconnected series that can be read as a standalone. A&A is loosely based on Apollo and Daphne's mythological story. THIS IS NOT A RETELLING.

As if I think the stories in this series couldn’t get any better, Sav goes "hold my beer" and bam! Another steamy, story with a lot of twists and turns, and hot chemistry filled creation is made. She has done it again! As a huge mythology geek, I love the fact that she incorporates the original myth (or tragedy) and completely makes it her own. I looooved Cora and Alistair. They may have clashed heads and the sexual tension was even better! Wheeeew! Alistair has became my favorite of all of Sav's guys (so far). I didn't think that it would be possible (all of her guys are drool worthy). Definitely looking forward to whatever Sav thinks of next.

REVIEW: The Final Score (Totally Pucked Book 4) by Maren Moore

The Final Score (Totally Pucked Book 4) by Author Maren Moore 

https://www.amazon.com/Final-Score-Totally-Pucked-Book-ebook/dp/B09X4FV75L/

Blurb:

Falling in love with my brother’s teammate, the very last guy on my scorecard, was the one thing I never expected to happen.

Well, falling in love… period.

But it happened. I fell for the NHL’s rookie playboy, and together we brought our beautiful baby girls into the world.

And while our story started as a fake engagement, it turned into the most real thing I’d ever experienced.

Until everything changed in the blink of an eye, and now I have to choose between my head and my heart.

The emotional, heartfelt conclusion to Graham and Emery’s story.

This is book 2 in the Scoring to Win duet. It cannot be read as a standalone

💙💙💙REVIEW 💙💙💙

The Final Score is book #4 in the "Totally Pucked" series AND the conclusion to Graham and Emery's duet. THIS CANNOT BE READ AS A STANDALONE. OMG!! They are literally my favorite couple!! This was the most emotionally gripping, realistic, super steamy, and all around heart warming book in this entire series. I swear, I love Graham so much. One moment, he's prince charming and has you swooning over him, the next moment, he makes your panties melt with all of the dirty talk that makes you see stars. I had to take pauses because I was 🥵. I'm so glad they overcame their obstacles and finally reached their HEA. Can't wait for Archer's story next!!!

 

Vicious Dynasty (Reign & Ruin Book 3) by Natalie Bennett

Vicious Dynasty (Reign & Ruin Book 3) by Natalie Bennett

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09ZH2LB16

Blurb:

Happy never, ever.

Hate is said to be disturbingly similar to love.

When it comes to him, I’m cursed to harbor both.

The specious spark that brought us together with an all-consuming obsession quickly became the catalyst of my undoing.

Shadows and darkness have filled the bittersweet years that saw us take two very different paths.

Judas Barron has become an intimate stranger.

He’s older now. Unpredictable. Heartlessly cruel.

So much more beautiful.

He isn’t the only one who changed.

The girl he once knew is gone, rotting beneath the wreckage of what he destroyed.

His influence and power have spread like the plague. With his position solidified he’s decided to make good on a promise he made and like the strike of a match, a hellish blaze consumes us once again.

This time, it's up to me to decide how this will end.

I can reign beside him, or make sure his dynasty is scattered among the ashes of our ruin.

****

Vicious Dynasty is a dark enemies to lovers 'romance'. It is the third book in the Reign & Ruin Trilogy and cannot be read as a standalone. This story contains explicit content and some subjects readers may find objective

💜💜💜REVIEW 💜💜💜

“You aren’t a pawn, Rhiannon. You’re my queen. Sooner than later, you’ll learn exactly what that means.” Aahhhh!!!

Vicious Dynasty is the third and final book in the Reign & Ruin trilogy. I'm not going to lie, I was totally simping over Judas (even more) in this one. Of course there was the mürder, tørture, and everything my dark heart craves but his realization that he NEEDED her and was willing to unalive those who DARED to harm her...just ahhhh! I have said this before and I'll say this again, these two are extremely toxic. However, you can't help but to ship it! Even though, this is the ending of this trilogy and Juda and Rhia's story, I'm excited that there's gonna be more from this universe.

Blurb:

She was the face that launched a thousand ships, the fierce beauty at the heart of Olympus...and she was never ours to claim.

*A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Helen of Troy, Achilles, and Patroclus that's as sinful as it is sweet.*

In Olympus, you either have the power to rule...or you are ruled. Achilles Kallis may have been born with nothing, but as a child he vowed he would claw his way into the poisonous city's inner circle. Now that a coveted role has opened to anyone with the strength to claim it, he and his partner, Patroclus Fotos, plan to compete and double their odds of winning.

Neither expect infamous beauty Helen Kasios to be part of the prize...or for the complicated fire that burns the moment she looks their way.

Zeus may have decided Helen is his to give to away, but she has her own plans. She enters into the competition as a middle finger to the meddling Thirteen rulers, effectively vying for her own hand in marriage. Unfortunately, there are those who would rather see her dead than lead the city. The only people she can trust are the ones she can't keep her hands off—Achilles and Patroclus. But can she really believe they have her best interests at heart when every stolen kiss is a battlefield?

💚💚💚REVIEW💚💚💚

Sooo, where should I begin???

Wicked Beauty is the third book in the Dark Olympus series. This is This was steamy, delicious, beautifully written, modernization of Helen of Troy, Achilles, & Patroclus. I have to admit, that this is my first book in this series. I came into this blind and not knowing what to expect. I was literally hooked from the very beginning. The only Katee Roberts book I've read was "A Worthy Opponent" and that was on the "Chapters Interactive Stories" App and I totally adored the condensed version. Actually, reading her book was literally on a whole new level. Fantastic world-building and wonderful character development. Let me tell you, there were some HOT, FIERY steam and tension that was completely undeniable. DEFINITELY going to TBR the whole series and check out her complete library. I think I found a new favorite author!!!
