⭐️⭐️,5 / 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Short and spicy taboo romance.

I did read Daddy’s Doll before this one, which helped me understand a bit better what was going on. If I hadn’t read that one first, I would have probably been really confused.

I liked the relationship between Ethan and Izzy, but I would have enjoyed it more if there had been some buildup to it instead of them jumping straight to f*cking after they see each other.

In my opinion, Daddy’s Doll and this one would have worked better as one book, because they seem to be happening at the same time. But I understand that the authors probably wanted to focus on one couple at a time.

“I had tasted my forbidden fruit and, no matter how many bites I took, I always hungered for more.”
“What do you say, darling? Want to join me in the darkness while I make you howl at the moon?”

Dark ghost hunting adventure with some romance and horror elements.

It took me a while to get into the story, but after that, I was hooked and couldn’t put the book down. The pacing was slower at the beginning of the book but got faster towards the end without feeling rushed.

The ending took me by surprise and was truly something I didn’t see coming.

Alaska seemed like an interesting FMC, and I would have loved to learn more about her. I’m not a huge fan of the love triangle trope, but I liked the relationship development between the characters.

I would have preferred to have 1-2 more chapters at the end just to explain some things a bit more. I was left with a lot of questions, but maybe those (or at least some of those) will be answered in the following book/books.

This is a dark, taboo romance. Please check the trigger warnings before reading!

The blurb of the book sounded really interesting, and I think that the book had a lot of potential.

The book was quite short, and there was a lot happening. There were some things that I think could have been explained a bit better, and maybe if the book was a bit longer, there would have been more time for explanations and exploring more details.

I enjoyed the tension between Olivia and Grant. I would have preferred if the book focused more on them and how their relationship developed, instead of being so much about Olivia’s siblings. If I understood correctly, the siblings have their own books/stories.

Overall, a short taboo story with an unhinged MMC who was ready to risk all for his doll.

DNF after 133 pages / 37% 

I wanted to like this story, but unfortunately, it wasn’t for me. After reading over a third of the book, the point of the story wasn’t clear to me, and there wasn’t a clear goal to work towards. 

Additionally, the writing style wasn’t my personal favorite

“Breathe in. Count to five. Breathe out. Repeat.”
“Ready or not, Nessa, I’m coming for you.”

This book is dark and twisted; please check the trigger warnings before reading!

I liked the idea of the book, and I think that asylum romance is a really interesting concept.

Nessa seemed like an intriguing character, and I would have loved to learn more about her. There were some things and situations revealed about her past, and I think these helped with her character development and showed the reader who she was as a character and why she made the decisions she did.

I personally wasn’t a huge fan of Asher. There wasn’t anything wrong with him, but for some reason I didn’t like the decisions he ended up making, especially what he decided to do to himself just to see Nessa. I actually ended up liking “the creepy doctor” more than Asher.

There were some things revealed about the shared history between Nessa and Asher. I would have liked to learn more about their history together. Maybe those would have helped me to understand and like Asher more.

The pacing was fast, and there weren’t any dull moments. Personally, I feel like the ending was a bit too fast-paced and felt rushed. Also, the main characters escape the situation a bit too easily for my liking. Yes, they both (especially Nessa) went through hard times, but I personally would have preferred them to “struggle” a bit more towards the end.

Overall, a fast and interesting read with lots of triggers. I’m interested to see where the story goes next.

I’ve been waiting to read this book since I first heard about it. I knew it was going to be amazing, but I could have never imagined it would be this good. Five stars is not enough.

I was screaming, laughing, and crying, sometimes all at the same time. This book was an emotional roller coaster, and I loved every second of it, even though Talon got on my nerves a few times.

Bexley was a great FMC. I loved how she gained confidence and grew as a character throughout the book with the help of Sayshen and Talon. I loved the chemistry between the FMC and the two MMCs, and how their relationship developed throughout the book.

The side characters were interesting, and they brought a lot to the story. I loved the found family aspect and the friendships between the characters. I can’t wait to read and learn more about the other characters.

The book was well-written. The author is so talented at bringing the characters and world to life. The characters were well introduced, and both the characters and the world were well developed. It really felt like I was a part of the Speed Demons team while reading.

I would gladly change places with Bex and have the Shaw brothers in my life 🖤🔥

This book is going to stay on my mind for a long time, and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

Please read this book—you won’t regret it!

Great ending to a great series! I absolutely loved the first two books in the Strings of Fate series, and this third book did not disappoint.

The book continues to follow the familiar characters from the previous books. Full of action from start to finish. The pacing was fast but didn’t feel rushed.

I loved the relationship between Arii and Elijah. They both grew significantly as characters throughout the series, and I enjoyed seeing how their friendship and relationship developed.

A perfect read for anyone who enjoys action-packed fantasy books with strong friendships, fierce FMC, romance, and the fight between good and evil.

I can’t wait to read more from the author!

Crimson Warrior is the second book in The Midnight Blood series, but the author recommends reading Crimson Warrior before the earlier published book, Midnight Blood.

The book was fast and easy to read, but unfortunately, it left me feeling confused about the premise of the story. The book was well-written, but in my opinion, it lacked world-building. Additionally, the characters could have been introduced better

I haven’t read Midnight Blood, so I don’t know whether reading it would have helped me understand this book better, even though this book is the start of the series.

The idea sounded really interesting and the book was well written, but personally I wasn’t enjoying reading it and had a hard time trying to get into the story. Might try to read again sometime in the future.

A 25-page short story, which in my opinion, could have worked better as a longer story.

The concept was interesting, and I think it had potential, but the shortness was, unfortunately, the story’s downfall.

I would have loved to learn more about the planet where Max was reborn. The planet and the life there sounded interesting.
The twist towards the end was something I didn’t see coming. The ending left me with a lot of questions.

Overall, it was an interesting and emotional read. I just wish it could have been longer, allowing more time for world-building, character building, and character development.
