Military romance seems to be my favourite thing to read at the moment. I love sexy alpha males and hot 'hold their own' heroines and this book does not disappoint. I enjoyed the technical details that seem to bring a scene to life and there's no shortage of steamy bits too. This fast became a book I couldn't put down.

Only one issue I had with this book and that was the phrase 'flaming fish balls' , once or twice I could have handled but it's constantly cropping up, I thought it was because the author wanted a substitute for the 'F word' , nope, I was wrong because ' f''king flaming fish balls' was in it too. This did detract from my enjoyment and so I give this book a 3.5 Stars instead of a 4. I would certainly read others by this author and I would recommend this book.

3.5 Stars

Oh how I loved this novel. "Down London Road" was a dark read. It dealt with emotional abuse, physical abuse, self doubts and other dark topics that many authors can't seem to write about (at least not in a realistic manner). I found myself in love with the characters. Cam was an Alpha-dog Asshole, who was a teddy bear when needed. Jo was a strong woman who once she realized she had worth I loved.

I loved seeing the struggle between the characters. I loved that this novel was realistic on the emotional front. We all have the insecurities that Jo felt or that Cam felt. I think that Samantha Young did an amazing job at making us care about the characters in her book.

I didn't think that she could write another novel as spectacular as "On Dublin Street" but I was wrong.

My favourite book of the month was The Night Shift by Alex Finlay this was just such a good book I loved it from start to finish! Also The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides it was a close race between the two for book of the month.

My least favourite was Marked by the Alpha it was just one of those in your face wham bam mating done!

My DNFS were a little high this month I just couldn’t get on with the 4 and I’m a great believer in not reading something just for the sake of it.

Broken Luna ( Broken Trilogy 1)
By Paulina Vasquez
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Do you believe in Myths? Just when she thinks it can't get any worse, it does. Lucy lost everything four years ago in a rogue attack. She's been abused, starved, rejected, and broken. As her eighteenth birthday approaches, strange things start to happen, things that only happen once every century. She finds friendship in the most unlikely place and escapes to find her true self with the help of the most dangerous Alpha.

I enjoyed this it was a really good read I wanted to go up to 4 ⭐️ but somethings were niggling at me like the communication between them and their Wolf it was a bit dumbed down in places, also felt it was quite rushed in a few places. But it was good and I read it with 24 hours.
