Review: Lunatic by K.L.Savage
Lunatic is the first book in another ground breaking series by K.L. Savage. Let me just say they delivered another hard punching, gut wrenching, and heart pulling story. Lunatic makes you want to hug and protect those that many would deem unlovable or unwanted. I have faithfully read the Ruthless Series by K.L. Savage and I knew that the Ruthless Asylum series would be just as fascinating. Yet for some reason it still blows me away that these two ladies are always upping the bar on themselves. The way that they are able to blend these characters from people that most would cross the street if they saw them…

Review: Dancing with Sin by Alexandria Lee
Alexandria Lee has written an extremely hot, emotionally driven, and how the hell did it come to be this way story. Alice and Ethan are characters that you probably know their doppelgänger in real life. A dancer and a soon-to-be lawyer whose lives are entangled with one another. Watching Alice & Ethan struggle their way through and try to find happiness in their lives will have you turning the pages fast. I so want to go more deeply into a few things but doing so will give it all away. I will say that there is (for some people) a “taboo” subject dealt with. I personally found the…

Review: Behind the Flame by Renee Harless
Behind the Flame is my first venture into Renee Harless’s writing. This is a slow paced love story. Harless builds small towns, like I grew up in. So it’s a world I relate to. Both the main characters have just moved to Carson. I don’t feel like the story would work if it was a quicker pace. Small town are a slower living so the pace makes sense and works. The build up to Ridge and River noticing each other is sweet. The chemistry between them is off the charts once they have their true first meeting (you know the one with swapping names lol). Harless has done a great job…

Review: In the Grasp by Cadence Keys
In the Grasp by Cadence Key is a cute and sweet second romance story. The main characters were just like people we know. Paige and Jack were high school sweethearts that ended. Fast forward 9 years later and Paige’s job throws them back into each others path. The story was honestly pretty much text book for how 90% of second chance love stories are written. A break up, time apart, fate leading them to one another, realizing the heat is still there, angst to drive them apart and of course the happily ever after. The characters in In The Grasp make this book enjoyable. I enjoyed Paige and Jack but…

Review: The Wrong Family by Tarryn Fisher
The Wrong Family is my first read of Tarryn Fisher. If you follow me you know I tend to dive in without even reading the synopsis of the book and that’s exactly what I did. I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect and I was pleasantly surprised. While I will freely admit that I was expecting a love story (since that is mainly what I receive to review), I was happily surprised to be reading a suspenseful thriller instead. Now generally with a romance the author dives right in, fast paced to get to the nitty gritty of the relationship so please understand that since I had no clue what…

Review: Tongue by K.L. Savage
Having read every book K.L Savage has put out, I can honestly say that I am dazzled by how the authors always seem to top their previous books. Just when you think there is no possible way for the characters to grab you as much as the previous Savage thrives on proving you wrong. To date Tongue is the most heart wrenching character that Savage has brought forth and that is saying something. Savage brings attention to many different horrors of real life, how those tragedies can deeply affect a person and what roads they may take. While doing that and knowing that each of her characters torture and kill,…

Review: Eternal Curse by Kara Leigh Miller
Are you a fan of Twilight? Do you have a thing for the paranormal? If you answered yes to either of those questions you have to dive into Eternal Curse. Kara Leigh Miller has weaved this magical web around her book to keep you trapped. She has bypassed (in my humble opinion) Meyer in this series. Chloe Madison is a teenager that you just want to hold and nurture. She has lost her mom during what every person knows is one the hardest parts of life, the teenage years. Chloe is then whisked away from the only place she knows to live with family. Who wouldn’t want to just cuddle…

Review: Angel by Kristine Allen
If you are new to Kristine Allen, be prepared to hold on tight for this ride. Allen is known for her MC romance book but Angel pushes her from amazing to phenomenal. Taking a leap into the paranormal MC was just what she needed to do. Bringing her wicked insight into a new genre adds even more spice to her stories. As always Kristine Allen sweeps in to her world with just her prologue. She makes your heart hurt, she makes you care more than you expect and then she rips you into pieces. Sometimes I think she enjoys putting her readers through all that pain just to stitch…

Review: Doc by K.L. Savage
As a huge fan of the Ruthless Kings I was excited to dive into another members life and devour him. Oh lord, how I’d love to devour Doc but I will try to keep this pg rated lol. Every time I read a Ruthless Kings book I wonder how K.L. Savage can top their last book. How they can find a plot or twist that can one up the last book. Don’t ask me how but they always do. Savage has a way of creating characters with some of the most heartbreaking back stories that draw you in and has you invested deeply in the life of the characters. Their…

Review: Loving Kate by CC Monroe
Loving Kate is a story that will encompasses all of your feelings, leaving you wanting and needing more. CC Monroe brings you on a ride where you need to keep your hands on your kindle and hold on for dear life. She shows you the truth of grittier side of life. You watch as Kate struggles to find the one thing she never wanted to lose, herself. I completely connected with Kate Beckett. I felt her pain and guilt. I could feel her heartbreak as she did what she had to. Loving Kate is a must read book for anyone who struggles with losing themselves in a relationship. It…
