The Bride Test by Helen Hoang

The Bride Test by Helen Hoang Probably one of the most anticipated reads for a lot of fans, and this also has some major hype surrounding the book, So that alone going into this one had my expectations pretty damn high. But in saying that, I only gave TKQ 4 stars. - The Bride Test was deferentially interesting, very unique and I see why so many loved this book, unfortunately for me I did not. Not because the writing was poor, I honestly did not care for the characters much, and the setting or not like the idea of  it maybe I am still unsure how to put my words in order but I did not hate the book, I just didn't gel with it.  For me was OK. This was a own voices novel, the main character or the dude main character is Autistic and this author does do a great job showing how he expresses his feelings and such. Khai, is Michael's cousin from the first book. Esme is from Vie...

Review: Until December

Until December  by  Aurora Rose Reynolds My rating:  5 of 5 stars 4.5 I’m a huge fan of the ‘Until Series’ by Aurora Rose Reynolds, and this book DID NOT disappoint! This one is about December and Gareth. A little drama at the beginning, but not much. I loved that this was all connecting and family bonds, I think this was such a perfect love story. The writing as always in great, I love the feeling I get wen i read an ARR book. The sense of being a part of the story, I think all fan will enjoy this one. I am curious to know who is next, will it be a Until Him story or will it be Until Her, maybe Aprils? Gareth is mega HOT, working Dad, and I was here for it all, hes the ultimate book boyfriend. December is sweet, innocent and I just loved her way with Gareth and his boys. I loved this book.

Darkest Hour Before Dawn by Charlie Cochet

Darkest Hour Before Dawn by Charlie Cochet BLURB THIRDS Team Leader Sebastian Hobbs and Chief Medical Examiner Hudson Colbourn are as much in love now as they were nearly seven years ago when a tragic event on the job destroyed their relationship. The two drift together only to be pulled apart time and time again. When Hudson draws the interest of dangerous enemies, both within and outside the organization, Seb wants nothing more than to protect the man who still means everything to him. As life and death events, an uncertain future, and startling truths draw Hudson and Seb to each other yet again, they must make a choice: trust their love and take strength from what they share, or lose what matters most for good this time. My Thoughts. Now, this was a treat. I gave this story 4 stars. I enjoyed that we got more of Sebastian Hobbs. I love that family. I was not sure about Hudson, it took a long time for me to like him and then by the time I did, the book was ...

Thick & Thin by Charlie Cochet

Hi Friends,  I have finished the THIRDS series by Charlie Cochet BLURB Book 8 Thick & Thin In a matter of days, Dex has been kidnapped, tortured, killed, revived, become half Therian, offered the chance to become a spy, and accepted a proposal to marry his jaguar Therian boyfriend, Sloane Brodie. It’s been a lot to take in, and although Dex is still trying to wrap his head around everything that’s happened, he knows he has to move forward. After the events of Smoke & Mirrors, Dex and Sloane find themselves in one of the most frightening situations of all: revealing the truth to their Destructive Delta family. When the dust settles, nothing will ever be the same, and it’s up to Dex to prove that in the face of change, the one thing that will always remain the same is family. My Thoughts. This was overall a 3.5 Star, I felt like this story in the series was a short filler, I had a lot of questions, and none were answered. The team in strong and a lo...

Saint by Chantal Fernando

Oh Boy,Hey Friends. It has been a hot minute since I have read a MC series, It only seems fitting that the first one I read in YEARS is Chantal's. Saint is the start to Chantal Fernando's brand new series, Knights of Fury MC. Saint and Skylar had a great relationship. I enjoyed reading about them reconnecting, I liked that the conflict in the story did not take over the whole plot, and left plenty of the couple  to be on the pages. I enjoyed the mix of sweet, passion moments and the heart pounding ones with the MC as well. I was quite upset when something sad happens, I was not expecting that. I really was like WHAT! because damn.  Saint is Older and very experienced then Skylar and I was living for it. Because we all no I love me some sexy times, and this proved to me why i do like me some Chantal writing. The plot, characters and overall everything was great, I was pleasantly surprised that for the first time in for a long time by this MC...
