Kingdom Come by Aleatha Romig

Rating: Release Date: November 16 Stephanie’s 4 Blush Review Another great Underworld Kings story is told! Aleatha Romig brings her own special storytelling to the table. The complicated twists and multiple turns will leave you pulling at your hair. Calculated, descriptive and heart stopping. So much detail! I preferred action. I craved control. I desired power. Welcome to the Kingdom of two families. Each powerful with some dealings that are legal and others that you don’t want to know about! Corruption, imports, exports and other underworld activities. At times the story feels heavy – and then there is a scene that had...

#FiveBlushRead ~~ The Brit by Jodi Ellen Malpas

The BRIT by Jodi Ellen Malpas   Christina’s 5 DEEPLY EMOTIONAL Blush Review Wow! Just wow. The Brit is JEM’s darkest and most romantically violent book to date. At times shocking and hard to read, The Brit takes the reader on a twisted, murderous rampage through the dark mafia underworld staring a British mafia lord and the woman he takes prisoner. I can’t really put into words how much I liked this book despite how violent and gritty it was. There’s abuse, rape, an alpha hero with some unlikeable characteristics, a very broken and tormented heroine, and a whole lotta...

Release Blitz ~~ One More Time by Aurora Rose Reynolds

Rating:   Title: One More Time Series: Ruby Falls #2 Author: Aurora Rose Reynolds Genre: Contemporary Romance Release Date: March 23, 2021 Stephanie’s 4 Blush Review  Aurora Rose Reynolds writes fun, flirty, sexy romance stories. One More Time is a great addition to the Ruby Falls series. The story flows and has all of your basic romance requirements; hot hunky alpha male with a possessive big heart and a resilient, independent, strong female. And steamy, sexy times! I loved the story of Aria, an author who returns home to Ruby Falls after divorcing. She meets Colton, the above-mentioned alpha male and the attraction is...

REVIEW ~~ Unshackle by Pam Godwin

Rating: Steph’s 4.5 Blush Review Warning: this book is NOT for the faint at heart. It is a dark romance and contains many triggers! The Freedom Fighters are at it again. Their vigilante team is infiltrating La Rocha Cartel, the most aggressive, most organized, most violent cartel in existence. All to rescue Vera Gomez, sister of Tula Gomez. She was an impossible possibility in the flesh. Luke Sanch is a former captive and understands what is needed to be done as he steps back into the dark and depraved world of human trafficking. He is smart, charming and lethal. He...

#BlogTour #Review ~~ Artful Lies by Jodi Ellen Malpas

Rating: Artful Lies, a brand new irresistible and passionate romance from the Million Copy bestselling author of the This Man series, Jodi Ellen Malpas, is LIVE!   Louisa’s 4.5 Blush Review There are a few authors that I will read blindly.  No need to read the synopsis because you ALWAYS get a book that you love and JEM is one of those authors.  Only one problem…I didn’t know this was a duology so as I approached 75-80% I started to panic…there was no way she could wrap us this book that quick.  I went to Goodreads and boom…DUOLOGY. So here...

#Review ~~ Stealing Cinderella by A. Zavarelli

Rating:   STEALING CINDERELLA by A. Zavarelli Release Date: April 2nd Stephanie’s 4.5 Blush Review Ashleigh Zavarelli brings us a “Cinderella” story with a dark twist. It is complete with a brooding prince and an evil stepmother. Stealing Cinderella is heart-stopping at times and filled with raw emotions. There is one scene in particular that comes to mind (no spoilers), where I was completely floored! I had to put the book down for a few minutes! Thorsen (Thor) is the Crown Prince of Norway and next in line to be King. He is so dark and demanding. Life has brought...
