Book Review: Yule Love Bites

Image
  Elise books a solo winter escape—only to find her cabin double-booked with a centuries-old vampire. After a perfect night, he disappears, and she barrels into the seedy vampire underworld determined to find him. Yule Love Bites is part of the smutty novella collection, Petra Palerno’s Filthy Shorts, that feature otherworldly love interests. My Review This is a fun, quickie read. I really enjoyed the chemistry Felipe and Elise shared. I loved that Elise had a shy side but when she was behind the camera photographing Felipe, she became bolder. Felipe has a kind heart. He never pushed Elise and allowed her to be in charge. I felt bad for Felipe when the "incident" happened, and he took off running from Elise. While I understood his reasoning, I did feel like he should have stayed and worked it out with Elise. She showed that she really cared for Felipe by tracking him down. Yule Love Bites is a bite size, spicy treat of a read! This Vampire Holiday Romance features immortal ag...

Book Review: Sugared Showman

Image
  Sometimes doing your job can come at a cost and make you question everything you know to be right. That's what happens for Serenity and Hawk as they cross paths at Haunted Harvest Hellscape. Will Hawk be able to run his carnival during the busiest time of year without putting it all on the line to help a pink haired, apple cider donut making, girl of his dreams? Or will his long time friend Jace set it all ablaze before he can even get it figured out? Come find out in Sugared Showman, book three in the Twisted Carnival Series. My Review Serenity has a feisty side to her. She is the perfect addition to the trio of Hawk and Jace. Hawk is the one in charge. Just call him "Daddy". I loved the dynamics between all three, but I actually really enjoyed Hawnk and Jace together. I am a sucker for a MM romance.  Yes, gimmie all the spice. I absolutely loved this book. If my next visit to a carnival is not dark and twisted, I don't want to go. Before you start reading, clear y...

Book Review: Ghosts in the Walls

Image
  First came the bruises. Then the blood. The cameras caught only shadows. I remember nothing. Now I'm trapped in my dead grandmother's Victorian mansion with three Christmas ghosts who've spent a century punishing my bloodline. Past remembers every family sin. Present craves my every sensation. Future has already seen how I die. But I'm not going quietly. I set traps. I make them bleed. I hunt the ghosts haunting me. Then something worse begins stirring inside the walls. Something that doesn't just want to haunt me. It wants to wear my body forever. And the monsters determined to ruin me might be the only ones who can save me. My Review When Emily says this novella is pitch black, she means it is PITCH BLACK!! I am here for it all. Every tormented moment that Past, Present, and Future inflict on Melody. I love how Melody does not just sit back and take it. Nope, she is a fighter. She taunts these three men. Yet, the more she fights the more they love it.  "We ...
