Merissa (14013 KP) rated Blood Ties (Monsters of London #2) in Books
Mar 11, 2025
BLOOD TIES is the second book in the Monsters of London series and absolutely needs to be read as the series not as a standalone. We continue the story with Drew making his escape and meeting up with Kieran, and Sam and Adam dancing around each other.
WHAT. A. STORY! It just gets better! I loved how Drew was the biggest but also the softest cinnamon roll you'll ever see. The relationship between the three of them was so well written - all of them were so concerned about not being in the way of the others. I was glad when Adam stepped up. Before they get jiggy with it though, there is so much tenderness, touches, and heartfelt looks, that my heart just melted.
The overarching story moves on and becomes even more in-depth and layered. You still don't know the half of it, but what you do know makes it clearer. Kieran and Lucien are still big players, with Kieran becoming even bigger by the end of the book, which made perfect sense to me. I am absolutely loving this series. Not only does it have outstanding main characters, but the side characters are also amazing, adding their own flair to the scenes.
I can't wait for the next book. This was outstanding and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY ME.

Merissa (14013 KP) rated Nursing the Alpha in Books
Sep 9, 2025
NURSING THE ALPHA is a standalone story that I really hope expands into a series. It tells the story of Flynn, who was a surrogate for friends, but they decided they wanted a clean break from him so there wouldn't be mixed feelings. Which was great (!) but left him lactating, which most alphas dislike. So he helped out as a wet nurse for premature babies. He meets Seth one night as he's on his way home, literally falling into his lap. He has a little leakage though, and although one alpha turns away in disgust, Seth steps up and rescues him. Seth thinks Flynn is sweet and innocent. Little does he know...
Oh, but I loved this story. It is both sweet and smutty, innocent and filthy, and I am here for it! The reactions on both sides to certain situations were spot on and completely believable. I loved how Flynn's freaky side came out to play, and how he made Seth pay for lying to him. But most of all, I loved how they were together. So hot and it was caring, even when they indulged in primal play.
I love this author's Daddy books, and now it seems as though I love her omegaverse too! Loved every yummy moment and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.

Merissa (14013 KP) rated Taming The Dragon (Sparks of Desire #5) in Books
Mar 21, 2022
TAMING THE DRAGON is the fifth book in the Sparks of Desire series, but you can read it as a standalone as I did.
Kaden has baggage in his past which is currently affecting both his present and his possible future. Fate has spoken and given him the perfect mate except for one small problem - she's human. His dragon doesn't have a problem with that, nor does anyone else in his family but, for Kaden, this is a BIG problem.
Avery is a strong young woman, confident in so many ways apart from her own self, thanks to the majority of her family. Originally, she believes Kaden couldn't possibly be interested in her but Fate won't be denied. They have issues to work out, that's for sure.
This was a great story that kept my interest. I do love it when the characters are not just straight-forward, without any issues. Kaden is the strong, silent type who has to learn how to share with others. And Avery has to believe she is good enough, just as she is. Kelly and Bella are on hand to help with that, and Kaden also has help with his issues.
Another fantastic read by this author, and absolutely recommended by me.

Merissa (14013 KP) rated Ellie and the King's Pandemonium Candle in Books
Feb 2, 2023
ELLIE AND THE KING'S PANDEMONIUM CANDLE is a standalone book in a world far from our own, where Celestials live with their own rules and boundaries.
Ellie and Gil have been friends forever but it is only when another of Ellie's friends shows interest in Gil that she realises her true feelings. Because of her behaviour though, Gil is engaged to Agatha, leaving Ellie bereft. But then their world changes, with Gil reappearing but wounded, Ellie's panne (father) killed, and the town they live in completely destroyed, together with everyone they know. They are pursued by Kromer, a mad king who wants Ellie.
This story is about growing into yourself, growing into powers, and growing into a relationship. None of that is easy and it all takes work. The focus is on Ellie and Gil for the most part but Kromer does have his role to play. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and the ending but I was left with so many unanswered questions. What happened to their world? Do they ever make it back? Did Nola survive? Do they rebuild? How do they rebuild? In other words, I need more stories from this world!
A very different story with its own quirks and foibles, I have no hesitation in definitely recommending it and I really hope for more!

Merissa (14013 KP) rated Her Guardian Angel (Her Angel: Eternal Warriors #1) in Books
Apr 10, 2023 (Updated Apr 10, 2023)
Marcus wants to be a warrior angel, protecting heaven. Instead, he is a guardian angel with cursed wings, overseeing his charge on Earth. Nothing could be further from what he wants. Amelia is his charge and has really bad taste in men. He has a flat near hers so that he can keep an eye on her although he's not entirely sure why. Things are not as they seem though and things soon hot up, both between Amelia and Marcus AND heaven and hell.
What they discover will challenge Marcus' beliefs in heaven and who and what Amelia thought she was. Luckily for them, there are 3 sets of Marcus' friends who are more than willing to help them.
I have to say, for me, I didn't really warm up to Amelia although I did have tears in my eyes at one point, but I think that was more for Marcus' reaction than what had happened to her. Marcus, I loved. I loved his reactions to the situations, how he felt, and even his rage. Amelia, meh, she's... okay, I just couldn't 'gel' with her. The story itself I thought was wonderful, still part of the series but can be read as a standalone. Looking forward to Her Demonic Angel, which is the next in this series
