Requiem (Remington Carte book 2)
By Emma Cole
⭐️⭐️
🌶🌶🌶

My name is Remington Reese Carter, and I’ve had a really bad day. It should have been an excellent day, after the prior evening spent with Elliot McAdams.
The experience had been amazing, but then the front door of Eli’s place opened, along with the biggest can of worms ever. I mean, really, what were the chances that not one, not two, but all three boys—well, now men, I suppose—that I ever loved, or thought to love, would all live together? And that Eli would live there as well? All. Together.
My mind couldn’t fathom it.
So I did what any self-respecting girl would do when confronted with four guys she has a major thing for. I ran. Don’t act like you wouldn’t have, either. I went straight to my best friend for some serious girl time.

Oh dear I hate going lower than 3⭐️ ratings but this really started to get boring half way through it was a little repetitive too. It did pick up in the last few chapters but not enough to go up to 3⭐️. Yes we did find out more of what happened but these things were spread out over too many chapters and the stuff with her dad ect was left to the odd mention. I kinda needed more.

Death be Hell ( Terra Vane 😎
By Katie Everwood/Katie Epstein
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

You’re damned if you do, and you’re damned if you don’t. At least that’s the position Terra and the team are in. One of their own is at risk, and time must be reversed to save them.

How will they do that? With no other option, they’ve got to travel through the Shadow Veil to the Demon Cities. A lust demon will lead the way, but she has a confession. Once her sinister ex finds out she’s returned, the darkness shadowing one of their own will be the least of their problems.

It’s time to for the team to go to hell and back.

Literally.

Oh this is so one of my favourite series I love it! I have missed these characters and this was the perfect book to get reacquainted with them. Bernard just breaks my heart and I love seeing a bit more about him and his trauma in this and I know he loves Terra still. Libbey has really changed my opinion of her this book I just loved her!!! I didn’t think we could beat the zombies but the trip to hell was just brilliant I loved the costumes so funny. This was a huge bonding instalment and it was really fun! Then the ending smacks you in the face not happy 😭

In a small Louisiana Bayou town during mid-September 1965, Albert Gilly frantically prepares his family's fishing store for an impending hurricane. Amid the chaos, he notices Adonis, a drifter, lying motionless on the street. With the wind raging and debris swirling violently around them, Albert's mind is consumed with thoughts of his family and their dependence on him as the sole breadwinner. Knowing that they would be destitute without him, he makes the painful decision to prioritize his own safety over rescuing the stranger. As Albert stands in his shop's doorway, the weight of his guilt is almost suffocating, causing him to hesitate before locking himself inside. He shouts one last time, urging the young man to seek shelter in his late father's houseboat at the end of the pier. Adonis is startled awake by his words, his mind still hazy, as he struggles through the strong winds until arriving at the floating sanctuary. However, his relief is short-lived upon discovering the sinister secrets concealed within the old wooden walls.


It was a strange read I’m not 100% sure on how I actually feel about it. The story was had good basis and the writing was pretty decent the ending just seemed a little rushed and it needed more I think! It just didn’t feel finished.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

SHADE KISSED is the fourth book in the Phoenix Rising series, and we continue with Nicola waking up from a coma. Kyle is overjoyed but Nic isn't quite what he remembers. For a start, she can see! And secondly, she has no idea who she is or what she's done. Fun times.

This book is told from both Nicola and Kyle's perspectives and it goes back and forth from before and after Nicola wakes up. I found that a little confusing but only because I sometimes skipped the title headings to get to the story. I learnt my lesson!

It is a horrible situation for both Nicola and Kyle to be in, and neither of them thinks they're good enough for the other. I loved how West had a go at Rhys and told him exactly what was what. Plus, Aurelia and Mena's reactions were brilliant.

It was good to learn more about Nicola and just what she has endured during her three centuries, but I honestly can't wait to learn more! This book ended right in the middle of the story and my Kindle nearly hit the wall!

Absolutely recommended and I'm looking forward to the next already.

** same worded review will appear elsewhere **

* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book; the comments here are my honest opinion. *

More than Exes ( Chasing The Dream book 0.5)
By Elizabeth Briggs
⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶

Just when I think things can’t get any worse...my ex shows up.

This is it. Our one chance to make it big in the Battle of the Bands. We have to win.

Except our bassist is missing. Guess who gets to track her down? That’s right, me. Because I’m the guy who’s always stuck fixing my band’s problems. And now my car won’t start. FML.

As if I’m not having a bad enough night, my ex-girlfriend Alexis shows up too. She offers to help me track down our rogue bassist, and with only hours before our band goes on stage, I can’t refuse.

I haven’t seen Alexis since high school, but now she’s back with a sexy new attitude and fiery red hair to match. She broke my heart once, but she’s not getting away this time.

Tonight I’m going to win—not just the Battle of the Bands, but the girl I never got over.

This is a standalone novella in the Chasing The Dream series, set a month before More Than Music.

It was good for what it was the start was a bit Ripley but it turned out ok in the end. This is a novella to a series so we will see how the rest of the books work out!

Prison of Hope ( Hellequin Chronicles book 4)
By Steve McHugh
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Long ago, Olympian gods imprisoned the demon Pandora in a human—Hope—creating a creature whose only purpose was chaos and death. Remorseful, the gods locked Pandora away in Tartarus, ruled by Hades.

Now, centuries later, Pandora escapes. Nate Garrett, a 1,600-year-old sorcerer, is sent to recapture her and discovers her plan to disrupt the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games, killing thousands in a misplaced quest for vengeance.

Fast forward to modern-day Berlin, where Nate has agreed to act as guardian on a school trip to Germany to visit Hades at the entrance to Tartarus. When Titan King Cronus becomes the second ever to escape Tartarus, Nate is forced to track him down and bring him back, to avert a civil war between those who would use his escape to gain power.

I love love love this series! This has to be the best one yet. I really like the way the author uses the Greek gods and mythology as well as bringing all the myths and legends into the story without it getting silly. Nate is just brilliant I love his relationship with Tommy and other characters. I like the back story of Nate’s life that runs along with whatever he’s facing in current times. It’s such a good series.

Fractured part 1 ( Society book 11)
By Mason Sabre
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Society law states that mixing the species is illegal, and anyone who breaches this rule will be executed.

The next heart-pounding instalment in Mason Sabre's Paranormal and Urban Fantasy, Society Series.

Cade MacDonald, shifter, wolf, son of the alpha, detective … law breaker.

He is a man who believes that we only get one life and is willing to do whatever it takes to do the right thing in his, even if it means breaking those laws.

When a young shifter is hunted down and slaughtered for the same secret Cade holds close to his own heart, he must face more truths than his soul can stand. Does he risk everything and fight for Gemma Davies, shifter, tiger, member of a different species—the one thing in the world that makes sense to him, or does he abide by the laws and lose everything?


I love love love this series! We are back with Gemma and Cade as they fight to stay apart not knowing they are being lied to left right and centre. This series just drags you in every single book whether it’s a short novella or a full book. I have to pace myself as I’ll read the lot in days. We also have the mysterious Henry trying to convince Gemma she’s his reincarnated lost love. It’s all hotting up.

California Storm ( Crown of Frost &Blood 4)
By CY Jones
⭐️⭐️⭐️

What do you when everything you hold dear is taken from you?

They came for me in the light of day, killed the man I love, and took me with them.

Then my kidnappers get robbed, and I’m taken again, thrown into a world my mom fled from. A world of sirens and mermaids where I find out I’m the Queen of them all.

I just graduated from high school, what do I know about being a Queen?

On the other side of the veil, everything is different.

The villain isn’t easy to pinpoint, and what I thought was the truth, turned out to be nothing but an elaborate lie.

Everything here is a game of power and strength and I’m just learning the rules. Do I fight for a world I was hidden from or swim away as fast as my tail can carry me?

Everything may be uncertain, but this I know. I’m California Azalea DelaCort and I will survive this storm.

I have loved this series and I really enjoyed this book about Cali who is Winters sister. The only thing was it seemed a little rushed and unpolished in places. Although by the end it did have me wanting the next book I need to know what happened to her!! It’s left on one hell of a cliffhanger.

Crown of Embers ( The Chosen book 3)
By Meg Anne
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"If it's a war she wants, I'll damn well give her one."

Kiri Helena Solene may have gotten her mate back, but that was just the beginning. The battle lines have been drawn, and her nemesis has already struck the first blow.

Surrounded by her Circle, Helena's power continues to grow. However, this time, power alone will not be enough. To save the Chosen, Helena must seek out the Forsaken to forge new alliances with those long forgotten by her kind. But will they be friend or foe? After centuries of neglect, is it too late to mend the wounds of time?

Rowena will stop at nothing to prove that Elysia and the Chosen are hers. With Elysia on the brink of destruction, it's time for all of the Chosen to remember who, and what, they are.

Their fate depends on it.

Well this book didn’t hold back! We start of mourning Anderson and seeing Helena try to deal with grief as well as bringing the forsaken together. I have spent all book thinking omg I wish Darrin would stop being such a bitch then bam he’s turned to ash saving his love! Well I didn’t see that coming and felt kinda bad for being so harsh about him. On a high note Roman is officially a circle member. This is a decent series.
