R E V I E W ➠ Always Someone’s Monster by Lani Lynn Vale


(Battle Crows MC #1)


BLURB

A few years ago, when his sister went missing, Haggard Crow turned into something he never wanted to be. A killer.
Even after his sister is rescued a year after she was kidnapped and sold, Haggard ‘Thief’ Crow doesn’t have any plans on changing. He sort of likes the zero fucks given guy that he is now.
Bonus points, he saves women and children from extreme situations, along with his club and real life brothers by his side.
After a horrible marriage, Haggard has zero plans of ever finding a woman again. One-night stands not counting, he adores his life as a single man. There are no expectations. No ‘where are yous’ and ‘are you coming homes.’
The life he chooses to live is a simple one. Until he makes a huge mistake, and he steps over that line between ‘daughter’s best friend’ and ‘a woman he desperately wants.’
Before long, he can’t stop thinking about her. Can’t stop wanting her. Can’t stop feeling things for her that a man twenty years her senior should never feel for a girl he watched grow up.
After one lapse in judgment, he decides she needs to go. But the funny thing is, he never expected Sophia Madden to fight back. And dirty at that.

RELEASE DATE: January 25, 2022



Not my first read by the author and not my last. I’ve been a Lani fan for many years and I was so excited about this one, even if she did *smack shock us* at the end.

I think I am still in a little bit of a shock as to this book. First I will say I’d recommend reading the Cross Fit series as to the shocker will make a lot more sense. That said….WHAT, WHY LANI? *insert crying emoji* This was, left me speechless because by the time my gears were running as to WHAT and WHO series this is from part of the Cross Fit Series I WANTED TO SCREAM AND CRY at the same time. That said let me tell you a little about this book, I say little because I honestly will NOT spoil the twist and ending for anyone! I also would highly recommend reading the MADD CROSSFIT SERIES first! In my opinion this book would go much better with after reading at least the last book in that series!

This is a story of monsters and the men that turned into them. We have the hero who is well experienced in life, his kids grown, divorced and living a life of hell in a monster’s body. So why can’t he stop thinking about his best friend’s daughter. She practically grew up alongside his own, same age and all. Little did he know the feelings were mutual, but the world will try to keep them apart. The heroine is a 22 year old who has suffered from child hood, don’t get me wrong she has the best support system….her father and brother, except when she lost her brother she also might as well have lost her father. This one broke my heart because as the heroine is young and has her tendencies to act on that, she is still grown for her age. She’s always had a thing for Mr. Crow just never acted on it, when opportunity presents itself, this is where the she acts her age a little comes in. But danger is just around the corner and not just the H & H learn a lesson in this book.

I. CAN’T. WAIT. FOR. MORE. I knew this series was going to blow me away and be good but I did NOT expect this. A little note to the author: you just had you, didn’t you…had to go and break out hearts?

“He’s fire and thunder and maybe mountain,” I blurted. “And I’m water. Lake. Earth. We balance.”


Not my first read by the author, she is actually my top favorite author and one I’ve read for years back in the day when I started. That said I really have been trying to give this series a good go and I truly did it’s just I honestly could not. I think a lot has to do with it because I read the Rock Chicks and did not like it at all, and so this kind of felt like it and I just couldn’t get into it. Another factor is that I truly love KA’s long books but this one particularly was just TOO LONG and I got BORED a lot of times. I as always love the KA writing style and can appreciate her sense for wording and keeping you engaged, unfortunately this series is not a favorite or for me but I did give it my best go.

Pepper is a character that well is perplexed and had a lot happening and going on that that is where I think my I GOT BORED came from is, that dare I say it THERE WAS TOO MUCH GOING ON that I did not see needed to be part. I know it’s an unpopular opinion to everyone but I am always honest in my review’s even if it’s my beloved TOP FAV author that I have read over the years. I hung onto that KA STYLE that I forgot everything else and when I did get into it I just could not connect. That said I will say that anyone who reads this book I would recommend reading from Book #1 and be prepared to really pay attention into it all to be able to fully get the feel. There is a lot of characters, a lot of romance, sweet, danger, suspense and hot scenes.

His heart.

RELEASE DATE: January 4, 2022


NEW to me author & books. I picked this sign-up just as a I saw it and the blurb sounded really good so I wanted to go for it. I don’t usually like to dive into NEW author’s but if the blurb really sounds great I give it a go. Unfortunately I was not able to really connect with the characters, especially the heroine and the writing style.

I did DNF this book due to a huge huge turn-off and dislike which is deception of cheating & characters who are a second-chance and sleep/kiss other characters. The mood was just black for me the whole time, I read as much as I could digest until I just got pissed off enough to want to throw away my kindle. Again some people love this, why, I will never understand if I wanted real life BS I wouldn’t be reading I can see enough of that in the world. I honestly haven’t read enough to get into the story because I have been so focus on trying to connect with the characters and get over the ‘cheating’ ordeal. Personal preference it is what it is. Best of luck to the author.

R E V I E W ➠ Running on Diesel by Melissa Foster


(The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor #9)


BLURB

Desmond “Diesel” Black is a Nomad with the Dark Knights motorcycle club. He protects others with his life and always rides alone. Tracey Kline left the only family she had for a man who broke more than her spirit, leaving her untrusting and on her own. When a twist of fate reveals pieces of the other no one else sees, will they be able to help each other mend their past hurts and learn to trust the chemistry and connection that’s too strong to deny?

RELEASE DATE: SEPTEMBER 15, 2021



Not my first read by the author, she is one of my very top favorite and insta-read authors. Not only have I read almost every single one of her books but I also own more than 40 in paperbacks alone. Aaaaalso, this series is one of my favorites from her! I am and forever will be a WHISKEY FAN!

This one is a enemy-to because even though the heroine and hero have know each other for a while, the heroine comes from a hurtful past. Diesel has been protecting Tracey for a couple years now, keeping his distance but also keeping anyone from getting near her. What I love about these two is that the tension was so intense I was on the toes waiting for the blow up, and when it finally happened it was so raw, passionate and in need! Okay I will only say this because it’s a dislike of mine (personal preference) but the heroine does go on a date with another man even if he was a good guy and I actually can’t wait to read his book also but I had to skip that portion, I tend to read with all my feelings and knew if I fully read the date part because it wasn’t a bad date per-say there is a kiss involved, but the heroine did not feel anything for the date. They def were not meant to be but just because it’s in here in detail, I had to stop, skip that part and continue. That said, it’s that date that actually pushes the heroine over the edge and the beautiful explosion happened!

I have to say that Diesel is beyond SWOONY in a dark and grumpy way, but once you find out the hurt behind his grumpiness, you will cry rivers. It’s beautiful to see the heroine stand up for him, and want to be part of his life, be honest with him, connect. Everything about these two was beautiful even when painful!

If you want enemy-to with a lot of sexual tension build up that will have you explode, a grumpy, big, handsome and swoony hero, a strong heroine that has been hurt in the worst way possible and a love that you see coming from a mile THIS IS YOUR READ! I would highly recommend this whole series, the Whiskey Series is something you will want to re-read in the years to come. p.s. the title makes so much sense I can’t! The shock surprise in this will have you in tears and wishing you could go back! Heartbreaking but so damn beautiful!

p.s. Melissa just keep going forever on this series please because WE NEED MORE!

R E V I E W ➠ Give Me a Reason by A.L. Jackson




BLURB

Eden Murphy came into my club looking to make some extra cash.
A girl like her didn’t belong in a place like this.
She’d get ripped to shreds.
Most likely by me.
There’s nothing but sweetness dripping from her sexy little body, and I’m the monster who’s salivating to get a taste.
Trent Lawson is the last man I should want.
Dark.
Dangerous.
So wickedly gorgeous he makes my knees weak.
He’s also an arrogant jerk who happens to be my new boss.
When I discover his adorable son is also in my kindergarten class, I know I have to keep my distance.
But neither of us can ignore the attraction that flames.
One glance, and our hearts race.
One touch, and we’re aching for what we can’t have.
One night, and we’re falling fast.
Dragging her into my sordid world is wrong.
It doesn’t matter.
Eden Murphy is mine.

Little Temptress. And I was just the fool who might get lost in her siren’s song.

“You are perfect, Trent. You’re perfect in your flaws. Perfect in your strengths. Maybe you believe you’re all wrong, that you don’t have anything to offer, but I can’t help but believe you’re perfect for me.”

NOT my first read by the author and I have read all of Amy’s books and am a HUGE HUGE fan! She is one of my perfect safe author’s that I would read anything from! Her writing is unique and captures the beauty from the pages!

Let’s get started with this beauty, first off I want to say that I couldn’t have more excited to get a new series from Amy but one of my favorite combo’s too! Trent & Eden were addictive…from page one! There was something so beautiful in all the broken that I couldn’t stop reading.

Story: Eden is a woman just trying to help her father keep his dream in hence hers as well. After her sister’s betrayal she will do anything to keep her life going, even if it means throwing herself into the lions den. That being Trent’s nightclub, the minute he walks in and spots her, he KNOWS she not only doesn’t belong there but looks like a dream. A bright dream he doesn’t deserve. After a little banter and the heroine showing her backbone, the hero is surprised but also intrigued. After all, she is something he wouldn’t even dream of trying to have. The heroine starts working at Trent’s club for the extra money, little did they both know fate had a big hand in this in all the ways. They may look different and have grown up differently, one light one dark…their souls were meant to be.

This story includes angst, passion, love, danger, hurt, laughter and HEART! I was ready so fast I needed to slow myself down. I loved everything about each character but especially Trent the SINGLE-DAD who would give anything to protect the ones he loves. His adorable little son, his brothers and the deep passionate love he has for Eden. It’s so beautiful, painful, sweet, romantic, sexy, dangerous…everything you need! I can not wait for more! I have a feeling this whole series will become my TOP 2021 MUST READs easily!

R E V I E W ➠ Kitty Kitty by Lani Lynn Vale


(Souls Chapel Revenants MC #5)


BLURB

This is the story of a man falling in love with a woman.
A man that was supposed to be a role model, and a woman that was just barely twenty-one.
A man who should’ve known better, and a woman that didn’t know that she was destroying his career word by word, innocent touch by innocent touch, smile by smile, until it had already imploded.
The world collapses around Absinthe ‘Sin’ Solomon, and the only thing he can do is try not to take her down with him.
The moment the inevitable happens, and the gavel bangs signaling that he will spend the next nine years in prison for attempted murder, Sin tries to let go. But Blaise Mackenzie has never, not ever, been one to give up without a fight.
Her military career might be over, but her career as a prison guard is just about to get started.
And her favorite prisoner? A pissed-off older man, a drill sergeant dishonorably discharged from the Army that tells himself daily that the new ‘Kitty Kitty’ female prison guard is not for him.
After following him around for years, watching over him from afar in any way she can, Sin is released early. And the first person that he’s going to see? A stubborn little blonde-headed female that should’ve known better than to trust a man like him.

RELEASE DATE: June 29, 2021


Not my first read by the author and I have read all the books in the series. And unfort this one was not my taste. It was still a great read because I love the uniqueness that Lani brings to books and the characters but just wasn’t fully for me. But that does not mean it’s not for you!

This series alone if you’ve read any of them is unique and fun! It revolves around the hero’s doing time, different reasons and so forth. This one was unique because it involved a hero that actually rescued the heroine but paid the price. But not without having to always see her. Yes that’s where the fun really begins. To be honest I would too if I had someone rescue me from what had almost occurred. They truly did have a bond that neither could explain but it was beautiful and sweet and very real! They encounter a few hick up’s and some surprises but after all end up only getting stronger…that’s until another incident that shakes them both almost breaks it all apart! Again if this is your first read, it’s worth the full read and I enjoyed the whole process, characters, story line and actions! This is more on the action side of what happens rather than romance, there is heat in there but it’s more raw and real and fast! I am looking forward to the next!

R E V I E W ➠ The Wicked Aftermath by Melissa Foster


(The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside #2)


BLURB

THE WICKED AFTERMATH is an emotionally gripping story of love, loss, and hope, with a rich and entrancing happily ever after. Set on the sandy shores of Cape Cod, the Wickeds feature fiercely protective heroes, strong heroines, and unbreakable family bonds. If you think bikers are all the same, you haven’t met the Dark Knights. The Dark Knights are a motorcycle club, not a gang. Their members stick together like family and will stop at nothing to keep their communities safe. Some of the Wickeds’ love stories will be hilariously fun and deeply emotional, others will tear at your heartstrings and include injections of humor, but they will all leave you wishing you could climb between the pages and join them. All Wicked novels may be enjoyed as standalone romances.
When the person you blame for your grief is the only one who can save you from the pain…
Tank Wicked lost his sister and has since vowed to save everyone else in his path. He lives by the creed of the Dark Knights motorcycle club, sworn to protect and respect his community. He selflessly saves lives as a volunteer firefighter and treats the men and women who work for him at his tattoo shop like family. But life isn’t a balance scale where good deeds negate bad things to come, and one foggy night life guts Tank once again. When a car careens over the side of a bridge and into a river, Tank springs into action, plunging into the water to rescue the passengers. Four people go into the river, but only three come out alive.
Leah Yates is just trying to make it through each day. When the man she blames for her grief becomes the only one who can pull her from the depths of despair, she discovers that even hope comes at

RELEASE DATE: June 9, 2021


Not my first read by the author and will never be my last haha I have read close to every single book of MF and also know this family and interconnected books very well. This one I was excited for because TANK had me interested from the first book in the series. I will also like to mention that MF tried to yet again kill us with another heart-wrenching beautiful story. The Wicked Men; where can we get one please! Loyal, fierce, alpha, smart, sexy and just amazing men!

I don’t even know where to begin, I felt everything in this book. From the you will cry you eyes out within the first 10% to the melting of your heart by the way Tank is with the two most adorable little girls, to everything. This is not just a hero and heroine are broken, they are shattered, sadly share something that you wouldn’t wish on anyone. Tank really is the ultimate bookhusband, caring, loyal, sweet and attentive. Leah has always lost so much and overcome well more like grown up faster than usual and she was happy with her life, she had the girls and River. When a horrible tragedy occurred, I cried my eyes out and thanked god that Tank was there. It wasn’t an easy road before but sure a even harder one after. They both had a lot held within their hearts and to come together, it took some patience and love. Loved everything about this, the hero the heroine, the girls, River, side characters, THE WICKED FAMILY…it was a beautiful mesh. I really don’t want to give out too much, it’s a road you want to take with the H&H even if your heart will break and cry for the loss but also will bloom and be happy for the smiles Tank brings to the girls!

R E V I E W ➠ Mason by Megan O’Brien


A Ride Series Crossover Book


BLURB

Ellie Mitchell has spent the better part of the last five years trying to move on from her past. As far as she’s concerned, being alone is the best medicine. That is, until a certain football star comes barreling into her life, unexpected and oh so persistent.
Mason Jackson is a man who knows what he wants. And he wants Ellie. Ellie isn’t like any woman he’s met before with her quick wit and complete disinterest in his fame. Now, he’ll need to convince her that taking a chance on him is worth it.
When Ellie’s past resurges with dangerous consequences, Mason will do everything and anything to protect the woman he loves.
This is the story of Ellie and Mason, a Ride Series crossover novel.

RELEASE DATE: May 3, 2021


Not my first read by the author and yes I have read all of her books and re-read them enough times to be able to relive them all without even looking at the book haha so you can say I am a fan. Little nervous to this my review might be the first yet but super excited to share my excitement for this book and series and world. So, I have been waiting on MASON forever it feels like, well since we first got to see him in CAL which he is just a baby, this is his mother’s Jill and his step-father Cal story (absolutely loved loved loved this one) that is Book #5 in the RIDE Series. That said I would highly recommend reading in order, honestly I think you get a lot in this book and if you have at least read any part of CAL or the other books it’ll make more sense, because Mason doesn’t have any blood siblings but lot’s of brothers and sister. His older brother COLE has his own story (Cole is Cal’s biological son) and then there is his older sister Emmie & Max and they both also have their own story. So, do you see now what I mean by reading part of the story before this one?! Yes!


That also said, I was so excited for this one because Mason may not be in the ‘family business’ but he is very much still part of the world. Mason is a successful and well known Football player in Colorado and our heroine is just the sweetest amount of vulnerable, sweet, beautiful and strong. This is exactly how I imagined Mason. Ellie meet’s Mason on accident, and he fabricates the truth a little. After being the strong one and telling him off, she doesn’t expect to see him again…after all she went to the party with her best friend only because of her. Ellie could care less about famous people, money or anything to do with it. Actually she had no idea who Mason was even after seeing him which was a fresh breath of air for him. When Mason shows up at her work, she ends up going to dinner with him. How do I explain this without giving it all away?! Gah! It’s a good doze of MEGAN’S world that’s how I want to put it and if you’ve read her books you’ll know. You have the alpha, sweet, smart, sexy and protective hero and again the heroine was just enough of everything needed for them to fit. Ellie get’s throw into lime light but with her past how can she be safe or keep her loved ones safe?!

You get everything in here: Insta-Love, Alpha Hero, Sweet Heroine, Swooning, Danger, Action, Honesty, Real Connection…Mason really lived up to his name, long time coming and worth the wait!

RELEASE DATE: April 30, 2021

Sejla cracked a smile at me.
“What?” I asked, suddenly feeling defensive.
“You finally found a real-life book boyfriend, and you don’t know what to do with him.”
“Exactly,” I replied.
She pointed at my phone. “Well, you can start by texting him and seeing is he likes shrimp.”
Grumbling about know-it-all sisters and theri damn unflappable logic, I turned my back on her and wandered into the kitchen. After verifying I had the necessatu ingreadients, I steeled my nerves and took a big step forward, messaging Tavonte.
ME: How do you feel about shrimp?

NEW to me author and books. As I have read almost every single book in this world, I was excited for this one as well because the heroine is the sister of one of my favorites. And this one fit perfectly into the world and I enjoyed the author’s writing style and words.

The heroine Selma is the sister of UNTIL DECEMBER Hero. She is a twin and the softer twin at that, I’ll be looking forward to Until Sejla’s story as well. This is a insta-love, the hero Tavonte is a sexy piece of hot chocolate with lot’s of marshmallows added. I seriously LOVED him, he was all man, alpha, smart, demanding, sexy…everything about it was just appealing. Sejla is the quiet one, reserved, works a lot, loves to read…just a a beautiful kind soul. Them together was simply beautiful. Tavonte is ex-military and home for good, he is not only dealing with having to find a place to settle but also his Mom who is AMAZING that wants to see him happy and married, oh and grandchildren hehe then there is his little sister who is a big trouble maker. She’s 16 so you know there will be lot’s of angst and fun. Again, this fit really well into the world and the timeline and of course the events. Absolutely loved the characters, and am looking forward to reading more form the author.

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

RELEASE DATE: March 9, 2021

Not my first read by the author, and I think by now everyone might know that she is one of my top 5 favorite author’s and my 2nd romance read ever back in the day many moons ago. That said I have read ALL of her books but sadly only half of the Rock-Chic (and I have not read her paranormal, not my style) that said there is a slight reason why this didn’t make it on to my TOP 2021 MUST READ list like his brother’s previous Novella. Also heads up this is a rather LONG novella which is awesome already!

This book is about the second Black brother, the younger one, the one that really doesn’t fully remember his late father, the one that really just can’t understand when he grew up that there was a life movie about HIS life about his father’s life and legacy. Jag and his brother comes from a man who was respected and loved, took his mother over 20 years to really cope with it. The heroine in this is someone he knew, well he met her while he was visiting his father’s grave and she was there burring her mother with her family. Both so young but one look and the rest if written in history, actually it was all fate as I see it because they met so young and the grief similar but different. They spend well over 10 years having a hit and miss, seeing each other at times but not really being with each other, until too many years pass and the next time Jag see’s his A was while she was chasing a kid.

The adventure really begins from there, I kind of don’t want to give you much in the book on purpose if you read my review because I truly believe that both of these are so worth diving in. I will say that reading the Chaos series whole would help a lot too. So my hang up is with Archie the heroine, it’s a 50/50 hang up because she resembles ROCK-CHICK heroine style and earlier I had said that I did not manage to get through that because I just, the heroine feel and style was not my thing, but I sure did try. That said Archie is 70& rock chick and the rest the heroine I was hoping for Jag. But here is the problem, I really couldn’t not like her because her heart was all about Jag and that melted my heart, she wanted to be there for him, to fix him, to help him heal and gosh did she give him all the love possible. It’s really heartbreaking for both of them, years later, same grief but so different. Together by fate for sure but that was the easy part, what’s after and how to ‘keep’ it is all up to them two, and this books really shows the love, passion, commitment and how deep A LOVE can go.

RELEASE DATE: March 5, 2021

NEW to me author and books, but I will say that I will most definitely read more by the author.

I have to say that even thought this author is NEW to me, it felt like they fit very well in the Aurora Book World. I loved the characters and the FEEL of it all, really was true to the world and I for one am so happy about that. I have been waiting for Blaze and this did not disappoint! This is part of the Until July and Until Harmony mainly because Blaze the hero is part of the MC Club that Wes and Harlen are in. He loves being part of the family, has a good life, owns two business, is going by until Milagros ‘Millie’ kind of steals the sunshine. He sees her through his shop window, and when he doesn’t see her the next few days he starts to think he imagined it all. But Millie was as real as ever. She is the sweetest, I really have been waiting for their story so so so much. We have this giant of a ALPHA but so sweet man and a woman that has sheltered her heart and self all her life, stone cold, average…until she lost someone very close to her who made her make a promise. So here is Millie moved form CA to TN to basically live out the promise, even though she wasn’t sure she would end up in this little town (Mayson World) she loved it. Millie comes from a Hispanic culture so to her bikers, hard men and not much is really new. Leaving her sister and family she had left behind was hard but she was determined.

After just one night, things go south for the day after and I gotta tell you that when I wanted to smack the hero I WANTED to smack the hero but in a playful way. It’s all very sweet, very BOOM, very alpha and there wouldn’t be a BOOM without some suspense and adventure. Lot’s of romance and heartfelt moments, swooning and sexy times. So happy this one lived up to my expectations, will be re reading it I know and of course getting a paperback along with checking out other books by the author.

Rating: 5 out of 5.

“Life is beautiful–short and fleeting, but beautiful.”


NEW to me author and books. I received a PR package from The Boom Factory and author, such a beautiful paperback. I also happen to have made the teasers for this book prior to coming out, which now I can’t wait to read it.

I was taken back at how beautiful the writing in this was, I really enjoyed that part and kept me going. The over all outlook style is not in my path but I was happy to give it a full go and enjoyed moments and then also did not enjoy others. 50/50 for me on this one, I was torn from the easy writing and words flow to the characters that kind of I was on the bench of. There was a lot going on where it took you from one direction to the other, I guess my issue with this personally was the character styles…I didn’t really enjoy the heroine fully at all times. That said of course this is all base don my personal experience with the book, characters and story, not reflect on a negative pattern of the actual book. It might be something that you enjoy the most, but it was just really hard to place the ROMANCE part for me in all of this. I couldn’t connect and of course you know that’s hard to put things into perspective and words. Glad I gave it a go and wish the author the best.

R E V I E W ➠ Still Standing by Kristen Ashley


(Wild West MC #1)


When Clara Delany walks into the Aces High Motorcycle Club’s hangout, she’s hit rock bottom. She’s hiding her car from the repo man, she has less than two dollars in her bank account and the only employment she can get is delivering messages for a criminal.
All because of a man. Therefore, she’s sworn off them.
And then she meets West “Buck” Hardy, president of the Aces High MC.
Buck also meets her, and the minute he does, he makes it clear (to everyone but Clara) that they’re starting something. Since Clara doesn’t get that message, she decides to leave Buck and sort out her life in order to come back to him clean.
She’s not gone but hours before life hits Clara with another blow. Which means Buck and his boys have to ride in and save the day. After that, Buck makes no bones about where they stand.
But does he?
Welcome to the first novel in the Wild West MC series which will tell the stories of the brothers of the Aces High MC, the Resurrection MC, and the Chaos MC…and the women who love them.

RELEASE DATE: February 2, 2021

Not my first read by the author, and I AM A HUGE HUGE HUGE FAN of Kristen Ashley, so yes I have read and re-read all her books over the years and YES they still feel new to me each time! So whoever asked for this style enough or WHATever got her to write this, BEWARE: THIS IS A OG KA (Original Kristen Ashley) and Beware in the best way possible because if you missed her MC romance, ooooh boy you’re in for a ride because I don’t even know myself how to express my review without giving it all to you but I will do my best!

I want to start with saying that this is a deja vu of Motorcycle Man Tyra and Kane (if you haven’t read that yet you won’t get it but basically it happens to be one of my absolute favorite books!) So the ladies whoa re big fans and have read her books you’re in for a beautiful treat. It actually took me back to the good ol’ days but also gave it something new. Even though it reminded me a lot of that book, it was new in it’s own and I will happily say that a couple past characters make an appearance. Let’s get into it.

Buck and Clara, what a duo, we have Buck who is the head of Aces High Motorcycle Club and Clara who is a woman who came form nothing, trying to make ends meets. Their actual meet started off right away, when Clara walks into Buck’s club to deliver a message. That’s when the fun starts because Buck is equally sharp and smart like Tack and this really brought back the butterfly-in-tummy feels. Like I said it jumps right into, it’s an adventure from the beginning to the end. Buck is a man’s man, single dad, fucked up past, fucked up present but a man who acts on his emotions. Clara is a woman that had it amazing, had someone amazing, until the day she did not. Shy, vulnerable but so strong librarian-looking woman meets tough biker boss. Where there is a Club there are club parties and there are bunnies, I am not going to get into that except to say that I was super super mad at Buck for a little while in the book that’s all I am saying (and will add that not everything is as it seems) I loved it all, the angst, the action, the ROMANCE it was really really sweet because nothing to me is sweeter than a MC’s romance!

*I want to touch on triggers because to me they may not have been significant but I know there is a lot of hurt in the world and some of the scenes and actions taken may be triggers for someone. If you’ve never read KA this’ll be a little shocking if you’re not in the understanding of the style and type. But if you’ve read KA well this also might be a little shocking slightly, you’ll definitely be defensive for the heroine. With understanding and reasoning but I was a’ taken back just a little.

R E V I E W ➠ Until Amy by Jessica Ames


Cover Reveal Jan. 28th


Whizz
As a member of the Untamed Sons MC London, I have one job—to be loyal to my club. After a rat is discovered in the Tennessee chapter, I’m sent overseas to try to hunt him down. I didn’t expect to find Amy. I don’t deserve a woman like her, not when I have my own demons from my time in the Army, but I want her.
Amy
Falling for a dangerous biker was never part of my plan, but I can’t let go of Whizz. I don’t care that my family doesn’t approve or that everyone I know keeps warning me to stay away from the outlaw. He’s mine and I’m not walking away, but that might not be my choice. When my life is threatened the only person who can save me is Whizz and the Untamed Sons.
Until Amy is part of Aurora Rose Reynolds’ Happily Ever Alpha World. If you loved Until Harmony, then you will want to read Until Amy.

RELEASE DATE: February 5, 2020

New to me AUTHOR & Books, I have read every UNTIL books and have been excited for this one because it pertains to Until Harmony which is one of my very favorites and Amy the heroine was part of that so I was happy to see her get her own story.
I was not expecting the hero to be so…magical haha yes magical because not only was he a rough biker alpha type but one that has a huge heart and all the love for the heroine. You can’t go wrong with that ever, dream bookboyfriend. That said here is a little about the story, don’t want to give out too much and yes of course I recommend reading Until Harmony along with this.

Amy is a Nurse and they way she and Shane “whizz” meet is unconventional and unfortunately in an accident. A literal one, when Amy is involved in a crash that also involved Shane, she springs to action, her Nurse training kicking into action. Only she wasn’t ready to be hit with what Shane is, all muscle, big, rough and outspoken. With her recent past she is very skittish. She hasn’t been able to want to let herself trust a man again. In comes Shane who just walks through that barrier. They come from 2 different worlds but when it comes to THE BOOM you can’t escape it. And that they don’t, it’s sweet and adventurous and sexy to watch them come together. There is danger, romance and a lot of Alpha we love from this world. This one I enjoyed very much.

R E V I E W ➠ Repeat Offender by Lani Lynn Vale


(Souls Chapel Revenants MC #1)


Lynnwood Thatcher Windsor has lived a lot of lies. Seen a lot of good men go down.
But he will not stand by and watch as the world he’s built from the ground up burns to ashes before his eyes.
Even if he has to build an army to combat the problem he sees brewing around him.
One step at a time, he carefully lays out his plan, building layer after careful layer until everything is where he wants it to be.
Every part is impeccably played, his pawns are in the perfect place, and then she barrels into his life, totally scattering every single piece he’s set in motion.
The bad thing is, she doesn’t even realize how badly she’s messed up until she’s roused the beast.
The day that Six Ines Broussard met Lynnwood Thatcher Windsor was the worst day of her life.
First, she has a public breakup with a man she’s not even dating.
Second, she has to deal with a black-tie event that she’d rather gouge her eyes out than to go to.
Third, she then has to sit at a table for hours on end with the one man she despises.
Just wanting a break, she thinks she’ll lose herself for a few hours and do what she loves to do best—spend time by herself and go for a walk in the middle of nowhere, spot some birds, and get a little sun. Only, her day doesn’t go nearly as planned. She walks right into the middle of hell. And at the center of it? Lynnwood Thatcher. The mayor. The man that she took one glance at on the night of his inauguration and dismissed as boring. A total stick in the mud. Only, he’s not so boring shirtless, in the middle of nowhere, doing things that are very illegal. At first, she’s appalled. Then her interest gets piqued. Stuck-up suit is hot! And he has tattoos. Oh, and let’s not forget one hell of a mouth on him! Then he goes and kidnaps her, and she realizes that nobody is quite as hot as you thought they were when they’re now holding you hostage.

RELEASE DATE: January 12, 2021

The mayor was beating the crap out of someone, and my nipples were pebbled!

-Six

Not my first read by the author, she has been a favorite and I have read a great amount of her books. I was so excited for this one because well she wasn’t going to give us this story and a MC from Lani was everything I needed!

I don’t know where to begin, it was all so fantastic. Yes this is MC but with a twist, because the hero Lynnwood is the new mayor. Yeah, Lani gave us a hero that is MC hard, rugged, dangerous with the combo of a CEO Suit Wearing sexy head over heels man! I was drooling over the hero the whole time. I really LOVED the heroine too, she was different (a Lani typical) but in the best way, quirky, fun, her own woman and realistic! Everything about this was realistic and not dragged out, things occurred that maybe not fully happen in real life but better. These two meet officially in a little but of a pickle, when Six was just minding her own business and Lynn well being what he is best, ruthless.

There is romance with a sexy sexy sexy twist. I mean I was fanning myself with the sex scenes, naughty, dirty and sexy! Their love may have been coming fast but neither of them realized how fast, until tragedy strikes and Lynn is faced with a life or death, makes a man realize what he has and needs! I loved their relationship because Lynn accepted Six’s quirky weird ways, saying and actions without hesitation. There are twist and turns in this one but a gripping read that will have you staying up until 1am to finish it! CAN’T WAIT FOR MORE! P.S. age gap romance, and beware timeline might be little here and there but there is a reason for that!
