Title: Recipe For Love
Author: Anne Malcolm
This is a standalone title.

This story has all the angsty love connection you could hope for, with just enough sweet and spice to keep the pages turning.

This is not your average Anne Malcolm story, it’s a lot sweeter than most of the other titles of hers I’ve read but whilst it doesn’t have the grit and suspense of other books it still has that style that draws you in and keeps you there.

This was the perfect pre Christmas treat, I’m sure you’ll love it too!

Title: Ruined Castles

Author: Amo Jones

This is the final installment of the Elite Kings Club and they do need to be read in order.

What a perfect finish to the series!

This fills in all sorts of gaps from the last few books and allows us to end with the couple that started it all.

It’s a bittersweet ending but sets up the next generation beautifully.

Title: A Thousand Cuts

Author: Anne Malcolm

This is part of the Underworld Kings series but can be read as a standalone.

As ever, Anne has done an amazing job tackling another genre and I’ve been recommending this left, right, and centre.

Christian is hot, controlling, demanding. He knows as much about getting what he wants as he does about making sure he gets it and he’s swift to take action when needed.

But, despite the place Sienna finds herself, she’s not going to take it lying down.

I really enjoyed this story and the connection between the two of them. There were a few moments I wasn’t sure how it was going to pan out but you just have to trust the process!

Anne is an amazing writer and this is another great example of that. Grab your copy and jump straight in!

Title: Grave

Author: Shantel Tessier

This is the second in the Dark Kings series.

I really had no idea what to expect from Grave, we didn’t see a lot of him in the first book, but I can honestly say he didn’t disappoint. And April was perfect!

I loved the way this story unfolded, and that ending, well, there’s no way it could have gone any differently.

I really liked April’s real-ness, and her flaws. The perfect counterpoint to Grave. I would have liked to see more resolution with Ethan, it felt like the two of them still had things to say and work through.

But the connection was there between Grave and April from their very first meet, that spark and sizzle. Wow. The two of them were fantastic.

I’m still waiting for Bones… but i guess Cross will do for now. I’m off into book three!

Title: Titan

Author: Shantel Tessier

This is the first in the Dark Kings series.

And wow, what a way to start the series!

Titan is hot. He’s unapologetically who is he and that doesn’t change. Emilee is caught between and a rock and a hard place and he isn’t making it much easier lol

Their history and chemistry is off the charts and when you mix in the boisterous combination of their friends it’s no surprise there are fireworks. Loved it.

I devoured this story in a matter of hours and am heading into book two. I wish it was Bones next but I’m ready to see what Grave has to offer.

Title: Psycho

Author: Nikki J Summers

This is the first in the Brinton Manor boys books and you don’t have to have read the Rebels of Sandland beforehand, but I have.

I don’t even know where to start with this review. Adam was everything I knew he would be and Liv, Liv was the girl I know we’ve all been.

Everyone has questioned their place. In their families, in their friendship groups, in everything. It’s part of growing up, part of really learning who you are and what you stand for.

So, we’ve all been there and we all get it and the fact that she’s so relateable allows you to fall in love with him. Because who could love the man that put Finn through everything that went on in Fractured Minds?

I don’t know, but somehow, you do.

It’s not just that he doesn’t conform to societal norms, or that he’s a little off the rails. The logic behind his actions are plausible, understandable, when you know where he’s coming from.

But no-one would have given him a chance without Livs insight. This is a great story, written beautifully. Completely recommended!

Title: Paine

Author: Tracy Lorraine

This is the second in the Rosewood High Series.

I flew straight into this one on the back of Thorne and I’m sure I’ll be heading into Savage next. These are interconnected standalones so you don’t necessarily have to read them in order, I just like to.

Loved Mason, floppy hair and all. What a sweet arsehole he is LOL I’m pretty sure he goes to hell and back in this story but irs worth every second of it.

Cami is great. She’s flawed and human in all the right places without being a complete doormat. They’re a great couple and I can’t wait to see what comes next!

Title: Thorn

Author: Tracy Lorraine

This is the first book in the Rosewood High Series.

I love Tracy’s stories and when I went searching through my ereader looking for… something, I knew I could count on her for an intriguing story.

I didn’t realise this vaguely ties in with Maddison Kings and it was cool to get a little sneaky peek of Leon and Luca!

Jake is… complicated. And broken. And fantastic.

I loved the push and pull between him and Amalie and with enemies to lovers being one of my favourites I’m not disappointed.

Looking forward to delving into book two 💞

Title: Sancte Diabole

Author: Amo Jones

This is part of The Elite Kings Club series and they need to be read in order.

Well, she’s done it again. Left me with more questions than we started with and dying for book two!

Brantley is The Dark King and he more than fills that role!

Saint is his opposite, but not. She’s very knowledgeable for someone supposedly so sheltered.

Looking forward to finishing this crazy ass ride and getting Maddy and Bishop back on track!
