Review: Veiled Calls at Twilight - Kira Stanley

Veiled Calls at Twilight 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.

ARC received for a fair, honest and sometimes long review. All opinions are my own. 😊

Review: A Fool's Game - Lore Townsend

A Fool's Game 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.
