Book Review: When You Stayed

Image
  What to Expect: Small Town Motorcycle Club Enemies to Lovers Secret Crush Obsession Secret Tattoo Suspense  I was never meant to stay in Rose Ridge. My father was the president of a notorious motorcycle club, so if something rattled him enough to request that I go, I should have listened. In my defense, at the time, it seemed more terrifying to give up the only dream I ever had than to leave like everyone else. I should have known that chasing that dream would lead back to the club, because everything in this town eventually did. I wasn’t expecting to see a familiar face, glaring as usual, amidst the chaos surrounding the Stone Riders. For years, I had endured scowls, glares, and scoffs from Ford Ryan. However, there was something new and different about his heated stare, and even that oddly protective touch. Something dangerous and addictive. I should have left when I had the chance, because my proximity to Ford and the club meant I was close to danger. Even worse would be ...

  She may be my brother’s girl... but she’s mine Benji My voice was stolen from me years ago. Silence is all I’ve known ever since. Until her. She understands sign language, and for the first time, someone actually hears me. There’s just one problem. She’s my brother’s girlfriend. No matter how badly he hurts her, she won’t leave him. Even when she’s falling apart in my arms, we break together. We both know this has to end. But I’m not ready to walk away. Which means there’s only one thing left to do... I have to save Jessie’s girl. My Review Ooh, Lauren what did you do to me and my poor heart. As soon as I met Benji, I already knew which brother had my heart and soul. My affection for Benji only grew stronger as the story progressed. He would literally take a bullet for Emmy, if he had to.  I felt for Emmy. She found herself in a difficult situation. Caught between a rock and a hard place. While Jessie may have seen Emmy first and claimed her; it was Benji for the win that I ...

Book Review: Your Worst Fear

Image
  When I first became a killer for hire, there were two things I never expected: to be knocked out and tied up by my new target, and for said target to be the man I’ve secretly stolen looks of from afar. The worst part? My plans are quickly diverted when he blackmails me into helping him figure out who put a hit on his head. And even more terrible than that? He still plans to kill me when all of this is over. Only, as we start to search, lines blur, and suddenly there’s no way either of us can keep our hands off each other. And I’m quickly losing my nerve to follow through with my orders and put an end to him. My Review If you liked Buther and Blackbird, this book needs to be your next read. I really enjoyed the banter and slow burn romance. Henley and Grace are like two magnets. They are drawn to each other but at the same time they can repeal. I liked Henley calling Grace "Little Killer". As the story progressed, it picked up speed and intensity.  When the spice hit, it was...
