Book Review: The Tales of The Scorned

Image
  There are four different volumes of these charity anthologies. I read the following stories from volume two and four.   Vibes by H.N. DeFore Wiccan beliefs and mentions of witchcraft,
Sentient object romance,
Cursed men,
Unique revenge plot,
 Open door sex (for all the smutty goodness), CLIFFHANGER ending with a HFN femme revenge plot, and a romance plot coming in the fall of 2025 I am already a fan of H.N. I love her books. This short story is sinfully delicious. Um, like I am going to need more as I need to know what happens to  Iris and Lachlan. Does Lachlan finally learn his lesson and what about the other men.  Doe Eyed by Karlee Berrios Doe Eyed contains graphic material, including explicit violence and gratuitous smut.  It contains possibly triggering content, specifically violence and murder (he deserves it), allusion to more murder, and brief mentions of rape and assault. Doe Eyed does not include any graphic on-page sexual violence, but it ...

Book Review: No, You Hang Up

Image
  It was just a joke. Just A prank call. After surviving a miserable week with my family, I needed something to lift my spirits. My two best friends thought a late-night movie binge—one of those stupid, loud ones we used to have as teenagers—was the answer. Reluctantly, they talk me into revisiting our old prank call habit. After all, what could possibly go wrong? It’s all fun… until it isn’t. It’s all harmless… until it isn’t. The moment he picks up, I know something’s off. He doesn’t just play along—he seems to know exactly what we’re doing. Before he hangs up, he promises me he’ll give me what I’m looking for. He says I want attention, and he knows just what kind. When my friends leave, I should be alone. But I’m not. And now, I prank calls have consequences. No, You Hang Up  is a standalone, MF dark romance. It is  extremely  dark, with many themes and ‘games’ many readers may not enjoy. It does contain a  Happily Ever After  and does not end on a cliff...

  You'll love this book if you enjoy: ❤️‍🔥 dark romance ❤️‍🔥 stalker ❤️‍🔥 serial killer ❤️‍🔥 second chance  ❤️‍🔥 twisted and f'd up There was a girl in the corner. She saw what they did to me and I saw what they did to her. Except when the lights were off and when they put us in confinement. I was 16 and I don't know how old she was. We couldn't talk; we couldn't even look at each other. That would lead to punishment. I was punished a lot because I had to see if she was there. There were dozens of us and yet at night, it was only her that helped me sleep in that nightmare of a boarding school. They thought I was bad when they sent me there... little did they know the monster they created. I didn't know her name, but I knew who ran the school.  Years later and with blood on my hands, I got my revenge planned years ago when I was only a child. Then I found a name. Her name. If you thought they fucked me up, you should see what happened to her. M...

  Milli thinks she’s an average girl, living a below average life. Her last four years in the small town of Anvil, Virginia have been mediocre at best.
