Review: Minus - Jack Davenport

Minus Minus by Jack Davenport
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Minus is book one in the Burning Saints MC series by Jack Davenport. It focuses on the characters Minus and Cricket. Minus has been in exile from his club and from the woman he loves for many years, working as a rancher but is called home unexpectantly when things are starting to change at the hands of the MC President and Minus is going to be at the forefront of that change.

Cricket has also been called back to the MC by her uncle the president and thrust back into the life that she used to have with Minus. But Cricket has changed, she knows her own mind and what she wants. Yes, she may want Minus, but she doesn’t know if she is willing to go back down the same road again. Older and wiser…yes, but not stupid.

This was a great read, not only do we have some really good and strong characters, we also see Minus’s life before and after he left the MC. I liked the added story of what was happening at the Burning Saints and that everything was not as it seemed. The camaraderie between the MC was great as was their relationship with Cricket, especially as they all knew that both her and Minus belonged together.

Minus and Cricket’s relationship was complex, emotional and hot! They just worked together and even though it was a second chance romance, I like to think that both characters learnt a lot of new things about each other when they met up again.

Overall, a good new series with a great storyline and some wonderful characters.

Review: Wrecked - E.M. Shue

Wrecked Wrecked by E.M. Shue
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Wrecked by E.M. Shue is book one in the Devil’s Handmaidens MC: Alaska Chapter and boy is it an emotional ride. The book tells the story of Scout aka Riddler who is President of the new Devil’s Handmaiden MC in Alaska and Thad. Both of the have a complex history and are on different sides of the law. Years ago, Riddler left with a lot of secrets and has come back to Alaska with just as many as she tries to find out what happened to her father. Thad, never understanding why Riddler left has some resentment towards her, but it is only through him finding out the truth, that his card of lies falls apart and he is determined to have Riddler in his life again, no matter how complicated that might be.

This story had a lot of secrets, betrayal and drama with lots of twist and turns, all which seem to lead back to Riddler, and not necessarily her fault. I love that she is a strong character who does have a streak of vulnerability that runs through her. She doesn’t put up with Thad and his ultimatums and is a wonderful mum to her young daughter. The feelings that her and Thad have for each other are complex but passionate and also complicated, making this a wonderful and suspenseful read.

There are some great characters in this book and I can’t wait to see what more this series has to offer!

Review: Matching All the Way - Veronica Eden

Matching All the Way Matching All the Way by Veronica Eden
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Matching All the Way is a seriously sexy holiday read which will have you laughing and swooning all the way through the Christmas season. It tells the story of Cole and Eve. Eve has always had a crush on Cole, her brother’s best friend, they grew up together and always seemed to have a connection and with Cole being back as an Assistant Coach for her father’s ice hockey team it seems that fate is going to keep throwing them together, especially since they keep matching up on a dating site. Trying to keep each other in the friendship zone is going to be tricky, especially when there is an undercurrent of sexual tension which is going to blow up at any moment.

Cole is a sexy and sweet main character; he totally gets Eve and her ADHD. He’s supportive and takes his time with her and let’s just say he is a master at the dirty talk! He is one of the best book boyfriends ever. Eve is equally as sweet and super quirky but has a goal and with Cole’s help and some sheer determination, she’s going to make it work.

Overall, this was a seriously sweet, sexy and all-round great read. Some great characters and low drama make it the perfect season read. A definite recommend from me!

Review: Dangerous King - Sienna Snow

Dangerous King Dangerous King by Sienna Snow
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Dangerous King by Sienna Snow is book one in the Street Kings series, and it is a sinfully hot book! The story focuses on Danika and Nikhil a complex couple who have known each other since childhood, one was shy and sweet, the other grew up on the street. As adults, Nikhil has become a mogul and Danika is put into an awkward position with her abusive uncle, but she has secrets of her own and this woman is powerful with a capital P. Her history with Nikhil is intense at times but they have both loved each other for a long time, sadly communication and their pasts get in the way of a clear run for these character’s.

Danika must make a deal with Nik and hopes that she doesn’t lose herself in the process whilst Nik has to come to terms with how her feels about the woman that owns his heart! There is definitely some sexy times between the two characters and I also loved the sub story that went on and hope that we get more from Nik’s brother in the series. I’m also intrigued to see if Danika’s slimy uncle pops up more too.

Overall, a really good and suspenseful romantic read!

Review: Until Hanna - Aurora Rose Reynolds

Until Hanna Until Hanna by Aurora Rose Reynolds
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Until Hanna by Aurora Rose Reynolds is book 13 in the Until Him/Until Her series and follows the story of Hanna Mayson and Walker St. James. Hanna meets Walker through her job as a flight intendent and both of them are instantly taken with each other, but it can only be a holiday fling since both of them have jobs that take them away from long periods of time. But when Hanna lets Walker know the reason that she can’t be more with him, it is game on and Walker will literally do anything to keep Hanna and help her to understand how important she is.

This was a wonderful book that can be read in one sitting. Hanna is both sweet and shy but feisty when she needs too. She has her girl gang behind her, and it is only from being burnt that she is hesitant to get together with the sexy and authorities Walker. When something bad happens though, he has Hanna’s back and even chats with her family (which gives him a big tick in the Mayson family book). Walker is definitely what Hanna needed, he is a mature man, with some dominant tendencies, but definitely treats her like royalty, even when she keeps pushing him away.

If you like your romances sweet with some hot scenes thrown into the mix, then this one is for you. Don’t forget the rest of the gang who also pop up in this book and you have a really great story with a HEA. A great addition to this series.

Review: Inciting a Riot - Karen Renee

Inciting a Riot Inciting a Riot by Karen Renee
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Inciting A Riot by Karen Renee is a fast-paced MC read set in the world of the Riot MC. It focuses on the characters Vamp and Lorraine. Vamp cheated on Lorraine many years ago and he has regretted it ever since. When he finds Lorraine in a dangerous situation, he knows that he will do anything to help her as well as make his past wrongs right. Lorraine on the other hand is unlucky in love, well at least when it comes t choosing the right man who isn’t a cheater. Sadly, things don’t work out for her once again and she finds herself in a violent confrontation which not only affects her work life but also her personal life. Enter the Riot MC, people who she formally knew and loved until Vamp messed it all up!  

Lorraine is a sassy woman who knows her own mind and doesn’t need anyone to save her. When she comes under the protection of the Riot MC, she knows it is in her best interest to take their help, but she doesn’t want Vamp’s help as he hurt her so much. Slowly though, their relationship starts to bloom again and both of them can’t ignore the tension that is between them.

There is a lot of sexual tension between these two characters, and it just works. Yes, there is some instant forgiveness and love, but it is an overall enjoyable story. Throw in some MC men, sassy women, suspense and sexy times and you have an easy read. What I really liked about the story is the other characters on the peripheral, and I hope they all get their own book so we can swoon over some more MC men.
