The Book
Release Date: 25 October 2024

My life could have been ripped straight from a Hallmark movie. 

My name is Caroline "Candy" Cane, I own a country inn, date a man who runs a Christmas tree farm, and my mom's peppermint fudge wins first place at the Reindeer Corners' festival every year. Basically, I'm living every romance-loving girlie's small town dream.

Until a last minute trip to New York City leads to catching my boyfriend banging a Rockette (in full elf costume).

So, when I'm offered a chance to star in a hospitality-themed reality show, I jump at the chance to serve hot cocoa in roller skates on national television.

The only problem? The smoking hot, broody, perfectly bossy producer, Leo...

He's everything I've ever wanted in a man, but he's also my new boss and completely off-limits.

And that's before we realize our lives--and our pasts--are more intimately intertwined than we could have imagined.

Do I dare make holiday magic with the one man I now know I should never kiss under the mistletoe?

My Review     5 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This is a great book to get you into the holiday spirit with a woman who lives in Reindeer Falls and who's name is Candy.

Candy runs a holiday inn with her best friend who is more like a sister.

With a case of the grumps stoping her from her usual happy self, her friend sends her to New York, but once there she finds that her boyfriend is not the man she thought he was.

There she meets Leo, a man who lights her up, however his past interlines with hers and he is off limits until both of them realise how they are connected and Leo tells his truths,

These truths free Candy for a while and she agrees to go on his  reality show, but can they keep their hands off each other?

As with all of the authors lighter books there is comedy placed within a pesky but loveable animal, in this case a ginger tom cat.

The book certainly helps with the holiday feeling, a happy ending and you find yourself smiling to yourself whilst laughing out loud at times.

REVIEW - The Ruin of Eros by Maya Gryffin

The Book
Release Date: 7 October 2024

The world of the gods is merciless… and so is the world of men.

We grew up with stories of the gods. We know how cruel they can be. But I’ve spent my whole life playing by the rules, trying not to stand out. I know what happened to my mother—standing out was what got her into trouble.

But now, because of the king’s vanity, the goddess Aphrodite is out for blood... mine. Even my father, one of the king's councilors, can’t save me. Nor can my sister, or my fiancĂ©. But I'm determined I will not let them see me tremble, even when the king’s men leave me shackled on the great rock they call Aphrodite’s Pillow.

When I see the shadowed figure emerging from the mist—black cloak, hidden face, a hunter’s stride—I know he must be my executioner. But then, instead of death, the cloaked stranger offers me a bargain. He’ll save my life… in exchange for my freedom.

It's an impossible choice—bind myself to a monster, or suffer divine vengeance. It's a choice with only one answer, if I want to live. But waking in a palace in a new, strange realm, I still wonder if I chose wrong. What is a mortal woman to do in a world where everything has been taken from her? 
Fight back. And guard her heart. I’ve lost my family, I’ve lost my freedom, and I may yet lose my life. But I will not lose my heart. No matter what it says it wants…

Beauty and the Beast romance set in the epic world of Greek mythology, The Ruin of Eros is a captivating romantasy must read, with a fantastic storyline full of tension and a strong female character as its heroine. The perfect choice for fans of fantasy romance or books like The Games Gods Play, The Song of Achilles, The Shadow Bound Queen or Lore Olympus!

My Review    5 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This is a brilliantly put together book for those of us that love books with the Gods and other mythological creatures.

Psyche is a very beautiful woman and the youngest of two daughters of her widowed father.  She is good at hunting as her father had her taught well with her studies along with riding a horse and since he is a decorated member of the army knows how to defend herself.

However when the town around her on a festival state that she is so very beautiful, possibly even more beautiful than Aphrodite, not that she wants the acclaim, it causes the goddess to be angered.

This is where the fun starts to happen.  When she is left by the cliffs by the town for tribute, a figure emerges from the dark when the town has left giving her a choice.  Die or go with him with conditions in place.

I loved the world building, the strong characters and the familial ties woven into the story.  Psyche proves to the reader she is a strong character.  She has the chance to escape when her new world cracks, but when she finds out who the man who rescued her is she goes to save him, knowing that her has been captured.  

She overcomes both physical and mental obstacles and he in turn looks after her.

The book finishes with lots of unfinished endings and I really cannot wait to read the next book in the series.  I read this book a while ago and its one of the few books this year that has stayed with me after.

REVIEW - When it Sizzles (The McGuire Brothers #8) by Lili Valente


The Book
Release Date: 6th September 2024

I’m a nerdy virgin—glasses, spreadsheets, collection of test tubes, you get the idea—and proud of it.

I don’t mess around with unpredictable things like lust, let alone love.

Or so I think…until a gorgeous, brilliant blast from the past kisses me at my sister’s wedding.Suddenly, I’m staying up all night with Dr. Connor Sinclair, making out, making plans, and kicking his adorable butt in chess.

The catch? Connor’s leaving town in three days Three days! That isn’t nearly enough time to spend with this delicious, sexy, oh-so-perfect-for-me man.

So when he shows up at my place the next morning with two tickets to Vegas and a wild plan to roll the dice on forever, I shock myself by saying…yes.

Yes, to a whirlwind romance.

Yes, to saying “I do” in Sin City.

Yes to breaking all my logical rules.

Will this turn out to be the biggest mistake of my life? Or the best illogical choice this nerd ever made?


My Review    5 STARS
This is the last book in the McGuire Brothers series and this short but sweet Novella is the icing on the cake.

Wendy Ann is the youngest child and has always had the threat of her older siblings to keep her being a 24 year old still holding her V-Card, whilst being a bit of a nerd.

Connor Sinclair is in his thirties and moving away from Bad Dog after selling his medical practice, he does not want to work with his barely tolerable young brother and is moving to Boston.

When the pair meet at Binx and Sevens wedding the sparks between this pair leap of the pages and the chemistry lights up the pages as their wits also find a true challenge within beautiful wrappings.  It's a true meeting of the minds.

I have enjoyed the whirlwind romance and leap of faith that the characters take and am actually sad that this is the last of the series.

REVIEW - All the Pretty Monsters Series by Kristy Cunning

The Book - Gypsy Blood - Book 1
Release Date: 14 December 2018

I'm not all that special, really. I'm sure there are a lot of girls with old gypsy blood who see the dead, have killer cults hunting their family, and turn into something that gets scary when they panic. Yep. I'm just an ordinary girl. I wish people would believe that. 

I've been labeled as one thing or another for most of my life: Death Girl. Crazy Gypsy Girl. Gothic Chick. Monster. 

It took my mother's death for me to finally start getting answers about what's really been going on. Unfortunately, most of the answers come from men . . . who aren't just men. Somehow, I've gone and landed myself in a world truly filled with monsters, and I'm starting to think this is where I should have been all along. 

Only . . . I don't understand what's going on. I'm walking into the middle of a story that's thousands of years old, and I'm the new girl on the block who doesn't have a clue how this world even works. My only guides happen to be the most lethal of the bunch. 

I've gone and drawn attention to myself, and the ones paying attention are the ones everyone else seems to fear. How do these things always happen to me? 

Contains mature themes.



The Book - Gypsy Freak - Book 2
Release Date: 4 January 2019

What's it like to be a monster in a town full of monsters, who don't know you're a monster? Complicated and a little scary, but doable.

What's it like to be the girl who can't die - that everyone seems to always want to kill? Frustrating as hell.

What's it like to accidentally raise a psychotic alpha vampire everyone fears, who drops a lot of bodies on his first day out as a gift for your troubles? Terrifying, if I'm being honest.

What's it like when that crazed vampire tells you he wants you to be the happy little intermission, during an ongoing ancient story, and expects you to use your vagina to draw in a werewolf alpha, a Van Helsing alpha, and a sexual deviant alpha, so he can have his old friends back? That's when a girl has to stop, look around, and question her life choices.

I really don't know how this stuff keeps happening to me. Life was simpler when it was just me accidentally blowing myself up while trying to create potions and shampoo. Ever since coming to this town, I've had my throat slit by vampires, attracted way too much attention from some powerful alphas, and did a lot of regrettably stupid things because I'm too gullible for shady monsters.

Contains mature themes.



The Book - Gypsy Origins - Book 3
Release Date: 25 January 2019

I'm like a snowball rolling downhill.

That's the first thing that pops into my mind when I try to explain my life. I don't know exactly "what'"I am, but I do know who I am. At least...I did.

Sometimes life sends things your way that upend everything you thought you knew, and then slings you in another direction without any sort of harness or warning.

Sometimes it drops someone like me off in the path of four wildly different monsters, who all used to be best friends, but now sort of hate each other and compete over absolutely everything, including...me.

Life would be easier if I wasn't already attached to those four monsters, but they occasionally let their guard down around me, and I get a glimpse of what has to stay hidden under all those snowball layers, since they already rolled downhill a long time ago.

I'm tired of losing people I care about. I'm tired of searching aimlessly for answers. I'm tired of not having the right questions to ask.

Contains mature themes.



The Book - Gyspy Moon - Book 4
Release Date: 14 February 2019

Imagine searching your whole life for answers, and then finally finding them. A part of you is excited to know the truth. Another part of you is damaged, because you realize why it was so hard to learn answers. 

Secrets aren't usually very pretty.

In the midst of all of it, the four monsters I've gotten too attached to are about to be reunited with the one woman they all once loved so deeply that they sacrificed everything to have an eternity with her.

They said they hated Arion, but I never see hatred when they're around him. I see frustration, resentment, anger, and pain, but never hatred.

They say they hate Idun, but until she returns, I won't know how true that really is. All the pretty monsters don't have simple emotions, because everyone has lived so long that it's gotten entirely too complicated to feel anything too much.

The only way to figure out what happens next is to stop stalling and start doing, while silently hoping it doesn't cost me everything I never knew I wanted...until it landed in my lap.

My life sucks so hard sometimes.

Contains mature themes.



The Book - Gypsy Rising - Book 5
Release Date: 13 April 2019

"Sing, gypsies, sing of your lies...."

That old song plays in my head as the world turns around me faster than it has ever turned. Monsters and mayhem. That's become my life. Fear and apprehension. That's become the normal for those around me. Dread and distraction. That's what has interrupted my own personal romance story with my mon-star quad. Vengeance and retribution. That was the theme of the monster world long before I landed in it, and it's starting to heat up more than ever.

I guess it's time to see if I can handle being in the middle, because that's where I'm about to put myself. My mother always did accuse me of being a masochist. I'm starting to think she must be right.

Either they love me, or they love her. I suppose it's time to find out who wins. I don't fight pretty, and I'm not that great at smack talk. It's not that they're not worth fighting for. I just don't want to have to fight for them. Not when when I'm fighting bigger battles already. Either we're in this together, or I'm on my own. That's for them to decide on their own.

Let the games begin.

Contains mature themes.



The Book - Gypsy Truths - Book 6
Release Date: 1 August 2019

After spending the vast majority of my life lonely, I came to this town to find answers about my mother, and instead, stumbled upon a secret society full of monsters I never knew existed outside of dark tales.

Now I've built a sanctuary, gotten in the middle of an ages-old feud between various monster factions, and somehow ended up with an ancient, queen-like tyrant targeting me, because my life sucks sometimes.

For now, hoping for the best is all I have. Well, I guess that's a lie too. Hope's not all I have. I also have a Van Helsing, who can slay a small army without wrinkling his shirt. Then there's a Morpheous, who can toy with my mind in ways I never imagined. I've got a wolf, who makes it a goal to keep me human-ish. And there's a vampire, who enjoys killing and stabbing.

Ancient alphas, old vendettas, super-complicated histories, mass-death threats, and a lot of personal baggage. That's become a Tuesday morning coffee break to me by now. Like I said, my life sucks sometimes. 

Contains mature themes.


My Review     5 STARS
This was another brilliant series by the author.  A brilliant world building, characters that you cannot help but fall for with the past and the present calling and learning how they came to be as they are.

Violet has moved into a town where her mother died and knows that she is different, but as a Gypsy she is altogether different again.  Things are not quite as they seem.

She gets the same customers as her mother, especially the four men that end up turning her world completely upside down, especially when she starts sleeping with one, then another, then another.

Lots of information given about the world of Vampire, Shivers, Illusionists and Hunters, the close friendship that has been formed between the males, even if they relieve the tension between them by throwing punches and destroying their houses.

Violet is an extremely strong character and certainly knew how to stand up to the alpha men about her, to stick up for what she wants and to follow what she knew needed doing, all with the voice in her head telling her to do other things.

The ending is brilliant, I love how Violet shows everyone that she is stronger than even they think she is, that she takes charge and does the unthinkable and defeats who she needs to, restoring order in the world and keeping her charges safe.

I really loved this series.

REVIEW - Kind of a Bad Idea ((The McGuire Brothers Book 7) by Lili Valente


The Book
Release Date: 1 August 2024
Goodreads Link

Seven Trevino is a "bad boy" single dad with a heart of gold and a body a Viking king would kill for.

He's also my best friend.
A friend I wish could be more, but he refuses to even consider dating.
He's convinced he's too old for me.

But I know he feels the electricity that crackles in the air every time we touch, and I don't care about our age gap. All I care about is that no one has ever made me feel as safe, understood, or desperate to get naked as Seven does.

So when we end up stranded in the woods together after his daughter pulls a Parent-Trap scheme for the ages, I'm in no hurry to find a way back to civilization. 

I intend to take advantage of every second of being trapped in a tiny cabin with this man.

Every moment of sharing that one bed...
Every moment of feeding the fire building between us... 

And turns out, Seven feels the same way.

Soon we're christening every surface in the cabin--and the outdoor tub on the porch--and I'm positive my dreams are coming true.

But can our fledgling relationship survive in the real world? Or will Seven's determination to "protect" me shatter both our hearts?


My Review     5 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

Binx is the black sheep of the family. She is there for when things matter, and although she does her best do o what her mother want, they just differ so much from what she wants from life and ends up hiding her reasons for doing anything.

Seven is a single dad with a past that follows him in the small town of Bad Dog. Its does not matter how many years ago it was, how hard he works or how much he does for his daughter.

Binx however loves him and his daughter and would desperately love to get off the friends list with him.

It is his skeeming daughter, one of Binx's sisters and his mother however that get the pair isolated for three days in order for them to face everything and decide once and for all how things are going to be.

We get to see things from both sides, their inner turmoil, Binx's strength as a character and the way her strength gives Seven hope for the future with a woman that he adores.

I really enjoyed this book and cannot wait to see what happens with Wendy Ann and Connor in the last book of the series.

REVIEW - Dark Protector (Black Hoods MC #1) by Evelyn Paige and Geri Glenn


The Book
Release Date: 28 May 2020

From two bestselling authors comes the story of two people who should have never fallen in love and the dangers that lurk around them.

Blair's life isn't perfect, but she has a plan. Find a new roommate, finish school, and finally start the future she's been working so hard for.

And then he knocks on her door. One unwanted visitor is all it took to crush her reality and leave her living in fear. But at least she's living, thanks to the help of a good Samaritan.

A very sexy, tattooed, and motorcycle-riding man with a dog that looks as savage as he is sweet. GreenPeace saves her. He makes her feel safe. He makes her feel a lot of things she's never felt before.

But, the danger's not over. Her attacker is still there, lurking in the shadows and waiting to strike again. GreenPeace will put his life and his club on the line to save the captivating woman that's stolen his heart. But even that might not be enough.

Contains mature themes.


My Review    5 STARS
Blair lives in the house that was left to her by her grandmother, but one night there is a knock at the door, but it is not someone friendly.

Green Peace is in a bike group and is passing Blair's house when his dog leads him into a house where he find a man over a prone body and his dog is not happy.  The man runs when he sees him and he then looks after the unconscious woman and has her taken to hospital.  Feeling responsible for her he takes her to his house when she leaves the hospital as her house is not safe.

Blair soon finds out that Green Peace is not the man that she though he was, he is actually a blast from the past, but he keeps her safe, protects her, his dog loves her, he puts up with her grumpy cat and he proves to her he will do anything to keep her safe.

There is an element of suspense as we wait to find out who her attacker is, then for Green Peace to come in and save the day, just like we know he will.

I really enjoyed this and may well go back to carry on with the rest of the series.

REVIEW - Say Yes by Elle Kennedy

The Book
Release Date: 15 July 2019
Maid-of-honor Emilia is looking for some stress-busting fun the night before her best friend’s wedding. And what’s more fun than a no-strings hookup? Good thing there’s an app for that, and she’s in luck - the sexy stud she swipes right on is more than happy to fulfill all her sexual needs. Her hot night with “Dirk” is everything she knew it would be.

But this morning?

He looks a hell of a lot like the groom.

My Review    5 STARS
This was a very quick short story and certainly had a little spice considering the short timeframe.

It was sweet, fun and totally enjoyable.

REVIEW - Off-Limits Silver Fox Boss by Hannah Rio

The Book
Release Date: 11 July 2024

Escaping my wedding disaster was just the beginning.
Now, I’m hiding in my office cubicle, and only one man can save me.

Tears streaming down my face, I want to escape the humiliation of my fiancé's betrayal.

Comfort comes from the last person I’d expect in the dark, deserted office.
Donovan, the devastatingly handsome billionaire silver fox with a dark past.

He’s off-limits, older, and my boss. 

As the days pass, his muscular physique and dominant nature become irresistible.
I’m falling hard and fast.

His touch ignites a fire I can't ignore, a promise of forbidden pleasure. His strong, capable hands pull me from my misery and into his world of passion.

Donovan’s everything I shouldn't want. A dangerous, no strings attached game has begun.
Each encounter is more electrifying than the last.

I find myself wanting more than just seductive meetings behind closed doors.
I want a future with him.

But he’s a corporate player who loves to play with his women.
It’s all a game.

Now his growing seed inside me calls out for a new game.

Will he learn to play daddy?

Or will the fear of a corporate scandal of a young pregnant intern push him away…

My Review    3 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This book has a good plot but it just fell a little flat for me.  It is told in a dual POV, however at times the characters go over the same area so it felt a little duplicated.

Both Donovan and Kennedy fall for each other fast even with the 30yr age gap, proving that age is just a number, but the ending feels a little rushed and one point for sure does not get closed. (We know why Donovan breaks up with Kennedy, but the person is not found).

I did enjoy the story line and the characters otherwise.

A good light-hearted read.

REVIEW - The Dark King (Deviant Kings #1) by Gina L. Maxwell

The Book
Release Date: 27 September 2022

I thought a weekend away would be the perfect escape. Until I woke up married and trapped...by the king of the Dark Fae.

Neon Gods meets Fifty Shades… Deliciously dark and sexy!”—#1 NYT bestselling author Helen Hardt

For Bryn Meara, a free trip to the exclusive and ultra-luxe Nightfall hotel and casino in Vegas should’ve been the perfect way to escape the debris of her crumbling career. But waking up from a martini-and-lust-fueled night to find herself married to Caiden Verran, the reclusive billionaire who owns the hotel and most of the city, isn’t the jackpot one would think. It seems her dark and sexy new husband is actual royalty—the fae king of the Night Court—and there’s an entire world beneath the veil of Vegas.

Whether light or shadow, the fae are a far cry from fairy tales, and now they’ve made Bryn a pawn in their dark games for power. And Caiden is the most dangerous of all—an intoxicating cocktail of sin and raw, insatiable hunger. She should run. But every night of passion pulls Bryn deeper into his strange and sinister world, until she’s no longer certain she wants to leave…even if she could.

Each book in the Deviant Kings series is STANDALONE:

* The Dark King

* The Rebel King


My Review    5 STARS
Ah.  The darker side of Gina Maxwell.

I really loved this book in Audible and Aidan Snow has a lovely growly character to his voice, great for a darker character.

Bryn get a letter offering her a free stay at an exclusive hotel in vegas, just as she loses her job.  What has she got to lose?  

Caiden is the King of the Dark Fae and finds himself completely draw to the lady in the lobby of his hotel.  Drawn to her later when she is on the floor, he finds himself beside her before he knows what's happening and enjoying himself with her.  The next morning they awake to find themselves married with no idea how it had happened.

But things are not as they seem.  Someone has been working in the background to force them together, and Caiden is not happy that he is now bonded to a female, who if killed will kill him.

We see as they fall for each other, as Ben is inducted into the BDSM world and the suspense is lifted as secrets are spilled.

I really enjoyed this book and will certainly finish the series whether on Audible or ebook.

REIVEW - Owned by Fate (Serve #1) by Tessa Bailey

The Book
Release Date: 27 September 2014

Her mind rejects his world. But her body knows its master.

Journalist Caroline Preston arrives at Serve, New York City's hottest BDSM club, with one goal - to hate it. If her brother wasn't trying to turn the family's respectable financial magazine into a publication that features "lifestyle" pieces for the wealthy and adventurous, she wouldn't even be there, trying to write an article about a world she doesn't understand. 

But then she sees him. 

Jonah Briggs doesn't leave his post for just anyone. As the owner of the club, his sole purpose is to ensure that his clientele get everything they need, but when he sees Caroline, his only thought is what he wants - to dominate the sexy little reporter and give the most exquisite pleasure she's ever experienced.

Caroline has no intention of entering that particular lion's den - not with her family's reputation at stake - no matter how dark, sexy, and complex the lion in question may be. But with every encounter, she craves more, and with every slide of his lips, she realizes Jonah might just be the man to break down all her defenses...if she'll let him.

Contains mature themes.


My Review    4 STARS
Tessa does not disappoint with a hot read!

Caroline only goes into Serve as her brother wants to have a relationship with the place and he thinks that the family magazine should be going in a different direction, especially with their father about to step down from his position as the head.

Jonah is a man who knows how to keep secrets, he also knows how to pleasure a woman and when he sees Caroline, something brings him out of his office and wanting to give her a tour of the place and introduce her into the lifestyle.

He always treats her with respect, and is a steady rock for her when she needs it.

Caroline forges a career for herself, a better relationship with her brother and father and a relationship with a man that quickly worms his way into her heart.

REVIEW - Two Kingdoms (The Dark Side #3) by Kristy Cunning

The Book
Release Date: 29 June 2018

I'm getting a little tired of completing my goals, only to have the bar raised too substantially for me to transition at a productive pace...
I started off as a sad little ghost with an impossible crush on four really hot, Gothic guys with some attitude problems. Now I'm The Apocalypse, they're the Four Horsemen, and Lucifer is my fucked up daddy. Now my additional goals look like this?

Goal #9: Make a deal with the Devil without getting cheated, manipulated, or tricked.

Goal #10: Make my boys love me and take over the world...okay...so maybe just that first part. That second part sounds like it could take too much ambition, and I just don't have the drive for that.

Goal #11: Make cookies.

Goal #12: Call dibs on my favorite color.

Goal #13: Find out if my siblings or my father killed me and my boys...

**Sexual Content
**Dark humor
**Reverse Harem
**Language warning

My Review    5 STARS
This book starts where the other left off and again stops with a cliff hangar.

More brilliant world building, complicated relationships with four men, bought of humour that really have you laughing and people who would do anything for each other.

Really enjoyed listening to this and cannot wait until the conclusion!

REVIEW - Three Trials (The Dark Side #2) by Kristy Cunning

The Book
Release Date: 2 December 2017

So, I've checked off some life goals and added a few new ones to my list:

  • Get out of hell's belly without letting my ungrateful charges die.
  • Get a new name that's more badass.
  • Stop wasting my breath on lectures and start annoying the quad hell squad every time they annoy me. Fight fire with fire. Ha! Another hell pun.
  • Find out who the hell killed me.

I'll add more. I don't want to overwhelm myself before I even finish checking off my old goals. But seriously, I really do need a more badass name, considering how much I have to keep saving my damsels in distress.

I probably shouldn't call them damsels, since they're a little murderous and all. 

Maybe I should add seeing a hell-certified psychologist to my list of goals.

Contains mature themes.


My Review    5 STARS
This book follows on straight from book one and also ends in a cliff hangar.

We do get some questions answered like who Ghost girl actually is, but the whole book continues with brilliant world building, laugh out loud moments and some serious spice!

I listened to this book on a binge and loved every second of it, but yet didn't want it to finish.

REVIEW - Tell me Your Mine (The British Billionaires #1) by J.S. Scott

The Book
Release Date: 4 August 2020

A chance encounter between a secretive billionaire and a plus-size PR expert could be the perfect solution to both their problems - or a delicious scandal in the making - in New York Times best-selling author J. S. Scott's new British Billionaires series....

I am the type of woman who always plays it safe. In my professional life as a public relations "fixer", and in my personal life, especially when it comes to the opposite sex. Really, who needs the wild highs and the I-want-to-die-because-he-left-me lows of a relationship? At least, that's what I thought...until I met him

Damian No-Last-Name-Given is sexy as sin, and I'd developed some kind of weird, instant attraction to him the moment he settled his chiseled body next to mine on a flight from London to Los Angeles. His sexy British accent did crazy things to my previously dormant female hormones, which had eventually led me to do the most impulsive thing I'd ever done in my entire life. I kissed him while everyone else in business class was sleeping. Or had he kissed me? All I knew was that we were both very willing participants, and that panty-melting embrace had rocked my entire world while it was happening. 

Unfortunately, that moment of spontaneity would haunt me once I found out Mr. British Hottie's true identity. He'd held his last name back for a reason. Oh no, I couldn't make some once-in-a-lifetime misstep with an ordinary businessman. When I screwed up, it had to be one for the record books, and it had to happen with one of the most powerful men in the world. And, oh yeah, he also absolutely had to be the biggest man-whore on the planet. 

Once I knew the truth, I could have easily convinced myself that the kiss wasn't all that earthshattering - if Damian Lancaster hadn't boldly swaggered into my office the very next day to apologize, and to make me a business offer I couldn’t possibly refuse.... 

Goodbye sanity; hello madness.


My Review    3 STARS
This book had a good premise, but did fall a little flat, I mean what PR company does not do thorough KYC with a big client they want to land?  I know it's a story, but this did not sit right with me.

Otherwise this was a decent book, the characters grew, although things could have been sorted so much earlier if he had told her the truth from the start!

I have known better by this author.

REVIEW - Four Psychos (The Dark Side #1) by Kristy Cunning


The Book
Release Date: 6 November 2017

I'm not so different from most people. Like everyone else, I have life goals. 

Goal #1: Become a real girl instead of this invisible ghost thing I currently am. 

Goal #2: Convince the four men I've been haunting for the past five years to pick me to be their new toy after goal one is complete. 

Goal #3: Figure out who/what I am and why I can't remember anything past the five years I've been haunting this quad. 

Goal #4: Eat popcorn. 

See? Perfectly normal. Sort of. Gotta start small, after all. It's not like anyone else is perfect either. 

Contains mature themes.


My Review    5 STARS
This is the first book that i have read/listened to by this author and it was certainly not as dark as perhaps I thought i might be.

We have a witty heroine with an odd sense of dress sense and sense of entitlement. But the the four men who she appears to be tied to are all different in their own way.

The men do not know their past and want to know that they are and have failed at being selected for the trials so far, but as soon as the woman changes from ghost girl to more solid, things start changing for them both dramatically.

Ghost girl also does not know who she is or where she came from and also has questions, but things are never as easy as they would like.

The book ends on a cliff hanger, so be sure to have the next book ready as you will WANT to binge this series.
