BLURB

Hating them has never felt so sinful …

My half sister died at the hands of a friend, and I vowed to make him pay.

In the midst of a brewing war between two rival families, the mysterious and friendly Grey Westbrook sweeps me off my feet when I need it the most.

However, my childhood friend Levi Torres—now an obsessive, vicious boy—has made it his mission to erase him from my life.

His arrogant and hedonistic cousin Apollo Torres offers protection against Levi's wrath if I agree to all his filthy demands. But Levi and Apollo aren't my only problems …

A ghost of the past is hunting me, promising sweet vengeance, and the temptation is too big to resist.

My body is ravished and ruined, and I don’t want the depravity to stop, even if my stalker is someone I know.

Three jealous, insatiable boys who were there that night still fight to own me … Betray me.

One is a killer.

One is a sinner.

One is a big, fat liar.

And I will expose them all.

Review: Boys Who Taint - Clarissa Wild

Boys Who Taint by Clarissa Wild
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Boys Who Taint by Clarissa Wild is a rollercoaster ride of emotion, set in the backdrop of Spine Ridge University. Aspen has just lost her half-sister to a supposed friend, and she is out for revenge, but set in her way is a killer, a sinner, a liar and a Ghost, all who bring their own POV and storyline to this book.

We see Aspen trying to juggle her 3 men, one who she dislikes with a passion and blames for her sister’s death, but she just can’t stay away from him. Throw in the elusive Ghost and you definitely have a page turner. I loved that each of the men had hugely different personalities and Apollo’s did make me laugh aloud at times, but man does he do the dirty talk really well.

I never really know how I felt about Levi or Grey throughout the book. Levi really suffered throughout the story, and I felt like his family weren’t really supportive of him or saw the darkness that was going on for him. As for Grey, he was just a little different, but I did enjoy his interactions with both Aspen and Apollo.  

This book is full of twist and turns and some very steamy scenes! If you have read other books in this series, you’re going to love the addition.

Review: Veiled Calls at Twilight - Kira Stanley

Veiled Calls at Twilight by Kira Stanley
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Veiled Calls at Twilight by Kira Stanley is a RH Mafia based story with lots of twists and turns. After Kazia’s mother dies, she is left some instructions (dealing with her mother’s Romani superstitions) and finds herself at her gravesite doing just that when a man stumbles upon her and starts asking her some rather strange questions. Exit stage left and Kazia wakes up to find herself tied to a bed and surrounded by three men: Ceasar, Nicu and Ion, who have been sent by their father to grab Kazia’s mum but now have her instead. Here a tale is weaved of obsessions, superstition and violence.

This was a well written story (with some triggers) and we not only see what Kazia has gone through but also her men who don’t trust her to begin with, but as we see more of their background, we understand where they are coming from. Their father is pure evil in this story but very well written.

There is a lot of action and sexy times in this book, and you’re pretty much thrown into the deep end from the first chapter. Together, all four of them are a force to be reckoned with, especially against the men’s evil father who gets his just desserts in the end! Overall. A good RH mafia read with some dark elements.

Review: A Fool's Game - Lore Townsend

A Fool's Game by Lore Townsend
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐stars

A Fool’s Game by Lore Townsend tells the story of Ainsley, Gemma and Taylor and their often-complex relationship. Ainsley meets Gemma one night in a pub and there is an instant attraction, unbeknownst to him, she is already in a relationship with his boss who also happens to frustrate Ainsley at every turn, but he can’t deny that he has an attraction for both of them and there in lies the confliction. Taylor is Ainsley’s boss whilst he completes his community service, and Gemma is someone that he knows that he can’t have without Taylor. Throw in the use of the Tarot and we have a complex relationship about 3 people who love each other but who all have their own baggage.

This was a well written book with some great characters, told by each character POV which is great as we really get to see into their heads about what they are thinking and feeling. We also see growth of each character throughout the story and what they will do for family. Overall, an enjoyable read about love, chemistry and just being yourself.

Review: Paper Doll - C.J. Primer

Paper Doll by C.J. Primer
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Paper Doll by C.J. Primer is book one in the Kings of Corvus College series and boy is it a dark and triggered read. The story focuses on Mia who is packed off to a new college by her mum and new step day (something dodgy going on there), where she falls prey to her stepbrother Raf and his friends Ford and Wes, the kings of the college and who are there to make Mia’s life as difficult as possible! Think blackmail, bullying, questionable situations and a whole lot more. Mia in turn becomes the boy’s property and boy do they put her through the ringer (and not always on a nice way!) But Mia doesn’t go down easy and tries as hard as she can to not fall victim to the boys, even when they turn on the charm.

This book is definitely filled with twists and turns, and you are left guessing about what is going to happen to Mia at the end and whether her boys will step up. If you like dark, bully reads then this is a good book to while away a good couple of hours.

Be advised that the author has suggested triggers and warnings in this book that could be triggering.

BLURB

 

Life isn’t fair.

If anyone on Earth should know that, it’s Milena Semyonov.

She’s suffered blow after blow, and the hits just keep on coming.

Just when she’s sworn off being happy, that maybe being numb is the better way to navigate life, she meets him.
Cutter Carson Clayborne.

The man that finally shows her how a real man is supposed to treat her.

Just when she didn’t think life could get any worse, the man that abused her as a young, impressionable teen is back, showing her that life can, in fact, get worse.

When she’s ready to quit, Cutter is there, making sure that she knows that he’ll be there, whether she wants him there or not.

He is her husband, after all. And the unlikely pair have an understanding that they’ll stay married for two years, make a baby, and join two crime syndicates in unholy matrimony.

Cutter has other plans, though. He only agrees to the original plan to make her his.

He won’t ever give her up. What’s his stays his. And there’s not a man on the earth that’ll ever touch Milena again. Not with Cutter alive and able to take out anyone that tries.

Review: Walking Red Flag - Lani Lynn Vale

Walking Red Flag by Lani Lynn Vale
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Walking Red Flag by Lani Lynn Vale is book 3 in the Semyonov Bratva and tells the story of Milena and Cutter. Milena has a bit of a tragic story. She has the love of her overprotective brothers whilst trying to be independent, balancing friends who are using her and coming to terms with an attack, she’s also trying to get away from a boyfriend who is abusive. Enter Cutter an MC man who doesn’t put up with rubbish from anyone, he knows instantly that Milena is special and she should be treated that way, regardless of who her family is. Unbeknownst to both of them, their lives are already intertwined, but that isn’t going to stop their relationship from developing and Cutter doing whatever he needs to support Milena and keep her safe.

This book was definitely a page turner and more of a slow burn than other books from Ms. Vale, but it is totally worth the read, and you’re going to devour it in a short amount of time. I really liked both of the characters in this book and the chemistry that they make together. Milena doesn’t need saving, she just needs someone in her corner who sees her as strong and independent, and that is definitely Cutter. Cutter just needs someone to be on his side and hold him tight and Milena definitely gives him that. Two characters that work well together…. A really good read!
