Merissa (14030 KP) rated My Masked Shadow (Beautiful Stalkers #3) in Books
Nov 28, 2025
MY MASKED SHADOW is the third book in the Beautiful Stalkers series, and features Barbara, Emily's best friend, and Ethan, the tech guy of the group. Ethan is obsessed with her, but she worries that his carefree personality means her heart won't be safe. Silly Barbara! She should've known better!
Ethan is more than prepared to give her whatever she wants, if only she will give him a chance. So he makes a persona for an online game she plays and befriends her that way. Of course, that leads to her being confused about having feelings for both Ethan and Seb, but that paves the way for a hot primal chase scene.
And then, of course, you've got Zhao on the loose from the previous books, sticking his nose in where it isn't wanted, and threatening Barbara. Do you think Ethan will stand for that? I think not!
As with the others in this series, this is a quick, hot, and spicy dark romance that I loved and HIGHLY RECOMMEND. It's Caleb and Basia next. I can't wait!

Merissa (14030 KP) rated Her Guardian Hero (Hot as Sin #2) in Books
Apr 14, 2025
HER GUARDIAN HERO is a short story in the Hot as Sin series, featuring Carlos as the overprotective firefighter/paramedic and Maya as the object of his fascination. On Goodreads, it is described as an OTT Instalove Fire Fighter Quick Read and that is exactly what it is. It is only 43-odd pages, so don't expect a full backstory for the characters. Instead, you get two snippets in time - the main part and then the epilogue that also leads onto the next story.
Carlos has lost someone to asthma before and he is determined to not let that happen to Maya. As for her, she is determined not to be seen as weak. The sparks fly off the page between these two, leading to a spicy scene that might just take your breath away!
A great short read, perfect for that steamy coffee break, and definitely recommended by me.

Merissa (14030 KP) rated Her Mountain Rescuer (Honey Ridge #1) in Books
May 30, 2025
HER MOUNTAIN RESCUER is the first book in the Honey Ridge series, but features two characters we have met before. Hailey is Logan's daughter, and Beau is his best friend. We met Logan in Accidentally Kidnapping the Mountain Man, when Kaylee kidnaps him.
I love this author's books! She gives you exactly what she promises - a hot and spicy age-gap Daddy Romance with a breeding kink. AND IT WORKS! Even though this is a one-sit novella, you will get swept up in Hailey's story, feeling her heartbreak when she thinks Beau is out of her reach. You will feel his frustration at wanting his best friend's daughter. So when they get together and work it out? Sheer perfection!
If you're after a short and hot instalove story, then I recommend not only this book, but any by this author. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.

Merissa (14030 KP) rated Candle Love (New California Monster Romance #3) in Books
Dec 8, 2025
CANDLE LOVE is the third book in the New California Monster Romance series, and I'm guessing I should have read the previous books first. You can read this as a standalone, and I have no idea which characters were in previous books, but that's just my feeling.
In this one, Julie is the adopted human in a Dragoon family, about to spread her own wings, as she moves into shared housing. Chalice and Trent already live there, and both are smitten with socially awkward Julie from the very beginning.
Although described as spicy, I would go more for cosy, although shenanigans do happen, just so you know. It was also good to see sleep apnea represented, and the easy acceptance of it, which I know isn't always the case.
Overall, this was a quick, light-hearted, cosy read that I enjoyed and can recommend.

Taken ( Second Sight book 3)
By Hazel Hunter
⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶🌶
Psychic readings and personality profiles don't make a relationship - but trust does.
Although psychic Isabelle de Grey and FBI Special Agent Gavin "Mac" MacMillan are most definitely a couple, they hadn't counted on being together 24/7. But when a serial killer known as the Chameleon takes a special interest in Isabelle, Mac refuses to leave her side.
Though deeply in love, their relationship is put to the test when the FBI, against Mac's wishes, asks Isabelle to act as a decoy. Although Isabelle is willing, the plan unwittingly plays into Mac's darkest and secret fear. As their relationship strains to the breaking point and Isabelle's life hangs in the balance, Mac finally understands that every predator must have their prey.
A super quick catch up with Isabelle and Mac as she gets taken by the elusive Chameleon killer. This is a little spicy 12 chapter read. I’m a little disappointed in the anti climax of this killer that has tormented them in the previous 2 books. But it was ok.
