THE DUKE IS WICKED is the third book in the League of Lords series and finally, our Fireball gets his story.

Bless him, he has done so much for his friends, regardless of his own reputation with the Ton. He has an unspoken arrangement with Lady Nuisance but fate has a way of walking all over what practicality may decide is the right thing to do. In this instance, he is besotted with one half of Trouble Two, and Lady Nuisance is besotted with the other. Sounds easy then, right? Wrong!

Ye gods, this man is stubborn! So determined to do the right thing, even to his own detriment. I love him for it, I really do, but I also want to slap him upside the head! Delaney is the perfect match for him because she doesn't care about his title and will go toe-to-toe with him, instead of backing down and deferring to him simply because he has a title.

The only downside for me in here was the story about the blackmailer that just sort of fizzled out. I'm sure I will read more about it as there are hints in here for Simon's story, which sounds like it will be a cracker, but it just felt sort of unfinished.

Plenty in here to keep my attention and the pages turning. A wonderful addition to the series and absolutely recommended by me.

A group of teens are playing a game of cards at a house party when they discover an app which tells you when you will die, they all download it for a bit of fun. Everybody gets dates years or months from now, except one teen who only gets several hours. They all laugh it off and continue with their party. After the party this girl gets into an argument with her boyfriend and ends up walking home alone where she is eventually killed in her bathroom by an unseen force.
Fast forward to a hospital student nurse going about her duty, she speaks to the first girls boyfriend who is due to go into surgery after his car crash. He had downloaded the app and had been given hours to live and was scared he wouldn't wake up from his surgery. The student nurse laughs it off and downloads the app herself which tells her she dies in 2 days. When Evan (the first victims boyfriend) dies right when he was due to, Quinn realises it isn't just an app and sets about how to stop it.
I quite enjoyed the movie even though it was very predictable at times, and sometimes characters were so face-palm stupid! I liked that it has a final destination feel to it, I do think it should have stayed serious though as the scene with the priest was over the top with its silliness, and the way Quinn opens Evans dead body eyes to unlock his phone was laughable. These aside though, it is a fun horror movie which I recommend you watch at least once.
