I thought Lincoln was VH Nicolson’s best, but Jacob might just have claimed the crown. The angst, the slow-burn chemistry, and the emotional weight of this story absolutely captivated me—I devoured it in less than 24 hours! Jacob is every bit the swoon-worthy book boyfriend: fiercely loyal, tattooed, and full of quiet intensity. Nicolson has…
Dark Romance
Wicked Beauty by Katee Robert | Book Review
Wow—just when I thought the first two books in the series couldn’t get any hotter, this third installment absolutely blew me away! It’s not just steamy—it’s explosive. The chemistry between this ménage à trois is off-the-charts intense, and the heat they generate could burn down Olympus itself. From the fiery passion to the emotional depth,…

Sugar Wood by Brynn Ford | Book Review
This book set off too many triggers for me in the first couple of pages. I did manage to get all the way through it and I will say that my issues with are just that.. my personal issues. I was excited to read this because it is a retelling of Hansel and Gretel. It…
Devious by J.M. Stoneback
This was a solid read but I just couldn’t like one of the characters which is why I took off a star. That doesn’t mean you wouldn’t love it. So, please remember to always take my reviews with a grain of salt. Just because I think a book is okay doesn’t mean you won’t be…
