Happy Release Day: Brutal Obsession

Image
Brutal Obsession by S. Massery is now live!   He shattered my leg, and now he wants to ruin the rest of me. Greyson Devereux is a menace–but only to me. To everyone else, he’s charismatic. He’s the son of a senator and the star of the university’s hockey team. When all I want is to be invisible, he drags me into the spotlight. He wants my blood, my fear, my attention. Resisting him only worsens his obsession. Fighting solidifies it. He’s brutal, and he draws out a sick darkness in me that enjoys it. But I’ll be damned if I let him become my downfall. My Review Greyson may be hot on the ice but he is even hotter off. He is intense in a smothering, sexy way. That makes you just want to be all over him. Luckily, Violet feels the same way. The teasing going on between these two, made for very steamy moments. While Greyson may seem like he is in charge, don't count Violet out. She can hold her own and even calls some of the shots as well. Love a strong woman and e...

Book Review: Wicked Girl

Image
  The murders may be over, but my heartache is back in full force, thanks to my mother and my own misgivings. When I return to Winter Grove early and end up relying on the pack to help me out, I’m sure it’s a new form of torture. Instead, I find myself growing closer to August and Foster. I can’t help but think they’re dragging me deeper underwater, with no intention of letting me up for air anytime soon. My Review Now that Mercy has been accepted into Dorian's pack; the four of them have really been finding their groove together. With Vile Boys, the first book in this duet, I was a fan of Dorian. Yet, with this book, August and Foster get to shine more. Foster was the quieter one in the group in the first book, so he did not stand out as much. However, he got his turn, and I was a fan. However, August and Foster's relationship was good as well.  It was great to see Mercy grow stronger as well. She is the right omega for these guys. She needed to be strong with another alpha l...

Book Review: The Lost Girls of Willowbrook

Image
  Fact, fiction, and urban legend blend in this haunting story about a young woman mistakenly imprisoned at Willowbrook State School, the real-life institution later shuttered for its horrendous abuses. Sage Winters always knew her sister was a little different even though they were identical twins. They loved the same things and shared a deep understanding, but Rosemary—awake to every emotion, easily moved to joy or tears—seemed to need more protection from the world.

Their mother perished in a car crash, and Sage’s stepfather, Alan, resents being burdened by a responsibility he never wanted.

Book Review: B is for Bonnie

Image
  My Review This is the first romance retelling that I can recall reading about featuring Bonnie and Clyde. I do think the author did a good job of turning this famous couple into more than just outlaws. With this retelling, it was not just about Bonnie and Clyde. Bonnie was a wanton woman that had many male lovers. Of the other men, I did like Joe the most. This is because he was the other main male partner of Bonnie's. Yet, when it came to Joe, he really had true emotional feelings for Bonnie besides the physical ones. He treated her like a queen. Clyde was the opposite of Joe. He was rougher but this does not mean that Bonnie did not like this as well. Despite this, I actually was not such a fan of Clyde. Regarding, the other men, they were not as prominent in the story. Which, none were together at the same time with Bonnie. That is what i expect from a harem story. So, I would not call this book a harem book. More of a romance thriller. The ending was a surprise.

Book Review: Lifeline

Image
  The Slayer. It’s been a long time since my eyes have feasted on such a beautiful sight. Esmerelda Martin. I’ve never been able to take it slow with her. I’ve never been able to savor her like she deserves. I’m too greedy. Too hungry. A selfish man with a longing. A craving. Always eager for just one taste. The only thing more addictive than the blood running through her veins is the pleasure I feel as she invites me in and quickly lets me tear her apart. She’s been expecting me just as much as I’ve anticipated her, and I’ve waited centuries to feel her life in my grasp again. I won’t let her deny me. The coven doesn’t know our secret. A promise several centuries old made in blood. This time, the hunt, the chase doesn’t end until she’s marked by me, claimed by me, finally making her mine for eternity. Kinks/Triggers include: Primal Edging Choking Knife Blood & the obvious Vampire/Slayer violence. You’ve been warned! My Review Looking for a quick, steamy romantic vampire read, ...
