His Empress: Emilia Rossi

I am hesitant to say the slump is over, but I DID just devour a 532 page hetero bratva novel with Heated Rivalry shoutouts... so...

If you enjoy MF stories, I highly recommend this series. This little mafia/bratva universe is spectacular, and book three did not disappoint.

• mafia princess/Bratva Pakhan
• secret identities (throughout the story)
• hacker/soldier.• lots of violence
• accidental pregnancy
• Heated Rivalry references
• pretty severe PTSD
• a wolf
• grumpy/sunshine

Dimi was infuriating, but as his backstory was exposed I totally get why. Sienna had my heart breaking over and over. Vovk and all the other Bratva folks made me so happy, and so did seeing the entire cast of characters from the other two books.

The Cozy game and the nemesis reveal was hilarious. I was surprised but also not, if you can believe it.

Also, we need so much from the Irish, I am telling you.

His Empress was engaging as hell. I was dialed in pretty quickly. Sienna and Dimitri were both stubborn, but by the end I was determined to believe that you can't fight fate. I mean, at every turn fate was like ✨️making those dolls kiss✨️

This series is enjoyable as hell, and I have loved every book - even when there is a trope that I am hesitant about. I rated each one 5⭐️ because when I am only putting my kindle down to pee, you know I am locked in. All three books are out now!

I know this review is a bit skimpy, but you really wanna go in as spoiler free as possible. Thank me later!

The Legend Next Door: Totally Pucked Book 2: Jesse H. Reign

Image
I think this may be the hardest review I've ever had to write. I can't believe I'm saying this because I genuinely believed that Unbreak Me would remain my favorite Jesse book of all time... but THE LEGEND NEXT DOOR has, without a doubt, taken that spot. I loved this book. I LOVED IT. Jesse chose violence with this one because I died multiple times while reading. Died. Dead. Ben Stirling. Holy hell. BEN STIRLING CAN GET IT. Where did he come from 👀 I need to know. Jesse. How do I get a Ben Stirling, please? And Jeremiah. JELLY. Oh my god, Jelly. Both mmcs had no right to be as perfect as they were. It's just uncalled for. My heart can't take it. And Luca. 😭😭😭😭 I usually don't like kids in books, but Luca was such a sweet little character- and seeing Ben with his son was SO SWEET. But seeing Jeremiah with him was so much sweeter. The grief? God. It hit like a punch. The biawakening? Felt as natural as breathing. Believable, too. The chemistry? O...

It Started with a Text: Jax Calder

Image
I just finished this novella, IT STARTED WITH A TEXT, and 💕swoons dramatically💕 I absolutely adored this story. The vibes SCREAM romcom and it gives me that squealy giddy vibes romcoms from the 90s used to deliver. • biggest fan/rock star • textual misunderstandings • reverse catfishing • FALLING IN LOVE • NYC as a side character • rich man/poor man • mockery as a love language This was the sweetest story, truly. Nick and Anthony make this beautiful connection, right when they need it most. I laughed, I squealed, and I definitely craved some ice cream. I could have read 600 pages of their cuteness. But then I would surely ☠️. The bonus chapters you can get at the end is 100% worth it. I loved this story so much. 4 75⭐️

Brim Over Boot: Darling Brothers book 2: Emmy Sanders

Image
Oh my god, I am UNWELL. I shouldn't be surprised, but this one snuck up on me. BRIM OVER BOOT was fantastic. I'll be the first to admit that enemies to lovers is not my go-to genre. But Colt and Noah were damn enjoyable to read. From the beginning, you could see that Noah was under Colt's skin, and I was so here for when things started happening. And lord did they! Their love story is packed full of humor, rivalry, ridiculousness, and miscommunication/misunderstanding. They're idiots, your honor. But they're also SWEETHEARTS. Colt's struggle and fight along with Noah's possessiveness and patience. It's swoony over here! I loved seeing the Darling family again and meeting Walter. AND the Darling donkey cameo! I will die for Remington, if necessary. I could go chapter by chapter listing everything I loved about this one because Colt and Noah were just that good! BRIM OVER BOOT is out May 22nd. You still have time to read (or reread) book one, Sweet Like Wh...
