“Most things in life that cause the most damage sneak up on you like that, not giving much warning before it completely
5 SWEET MERCIFUL STARS
“Most things in life that cause the most damage sneak up on you like that, not giving much warning before it completely uproots your life destroying anything and everything you worked so hard for. Before you know it, love has impaled your soul, feeding it piece by piece to the bad boys we fall so stupidly for.”
M.N. Forgy has once again managed to blow my mind with this one. Zeek and Jillian’s story was epic and timeless. Their love wasn’t ordinary and that’s what made it so perfect.
Mercy showed no mercy what so ever to these characters. There wasn’t a moment they didn’t have to fight against those who wanted to bring them down.
Jillian’s road of self acceptance and learning the truth about her father wasn’t easy for her. Their was hate and love, but love is hard to fight and she soon realizes she can’t hate Zeek. Instead she proves to be badass outlaw in disguise and good cop as well. She’s a resilient and courageous woman who would do anything to protect her man.
Zeek.
He’s been a part of a dark and dangerous world all his life. That’s all he’s ever known and Jillian brought out the light and sun in him. I loved seeing that sensitive side to him. Watching him go through all these different emotions for the very first time with the woman who has become his whole world shows that even villains can show mercy and be redeemed.
He isn’t perfect, but who really wants that?
It’s boring in my opinion. Shrugs.
What to expect while reading?
Well, for one your mind will explode… just go boom. There’s lots of moments full of anticipation and nerve wrecking scenes. Of course there are the hot and sexy moments as well, but my favorite of all were the sweet moments between Zeek and Jillian where he would just hold her close to his chest while simply laying in bed.
This book will take you on a ride, delivering an epic conclusion to Zeek and Jillian’s story!

The Mindf*ck series by the late, brilliantly talented ST. Abby had my true crime junkie heart soaring!! The Rating for the whole series: 4.5 STARS!
The Mindf*ck series by the late, brilliantly talented ST. Abby had my true crime junkie heart soaring!! The premise was pure brilliance and I loved every single moment!!
"There’s a certain high you get from fooling the world into thinking you’re the lamb instead of the rabid wolf."
This story had me in its clutches not wanting to let me go for a second. I paced myself, yet I finished the complete series in 3 days. It's crazy to think that a serial killer and an FBI agent would fall for each other. In what world does this happen!? But this was poetic justice and it all fell into place just right.
Lana waited, trained, and became stronger both in mind and body to seek revenge for what was done to her 10 years prior. She is a boss babe y'all, and the girl does not play ...more

We're getting closer and closer to the truth! Onto to book 4.
"Romantics always believe in revenge, because romantics love harder, suffer loss more painfully, and hold onto a grudge that has shattered their hearts. Their hearts are of the greatest importance, above all else—body, soul, or mind." ...more
Holy shit, that ending! These books are just getting better and better. It's been awhile that I've been on the edge of my seat. I love it! O4.5 STARS!

Just when I thought this series couldn't make me anymore emotional after reading Welcome to the Dark Side, Good Gone Bad left me feeling all the feels; love, anger, heartbreak, and utter happiness. Each book is packed with surprise after surprise, leaving you on the edge sweating bullets.
I loved Lionel Danner aka Lion!! He is EVERYTHING and right there on top with Zeus on my list of favorites. Danner has changed a lot since the start of this series and for good reason. He's lived more and seen a whole other life than just simply being a good cop. He's ferocious in his love for his Rosie; and in his need to protect her.
H.R. is a thorny rose. Her thorns represent her wild side, the rebel in her, and the price of being apart of the Fallen. Then there's her petals, representing her need and desire to be loved, to be shown that's she's enough. Harleigh Rose is multi-layered and filled with so much heart and strength, she'll stop at nothing to protect her loved ones.
Together, these two were explosive! The chemistry was through the roof!! With Danner, H.R. wasn't afraid to give up control because she knew she could trust him wholeheartedly. It was beautiful to witness her soft side with a man who accepted her completely. I just love these two so much!!
Good Gone Bad will take you on a ride! It is perfection. Suspenseful, steamy, and filled with action–I couldn't get enough....more

+5 STARS!
It is 1 in the morning and I'm lying here thinking about what to write. Welcome to the Dark Side just took all my words and rode out into the night.
This book consumed me. I didn't want to put it down and if I did, I'd jump right back in.
You'll never meet a heroine more fierce, resilient, or sweet as Loulou. She was an absolute warrior and it only took a few pages to fall in love with her! Then we have Zeus. Daddy Zeus. As my bestie said, "f*cking perfection in manform" and I couldn't agree more. #GarroGirl
The beginning of Zeus and Loulou's story was sweet and innocent. He was her savior and best friend and over the years, she never forgets her "guardian monster". Their love grew and developed with time. Even their 19 year age-gap and Zeus' inner conflict during the time when Lou was untouchable, could not abate their chemistry as the pull was simply undeniable. It was kismet.
Gosh, this book left me such an emotional wreck. I was a breathless, sobbing mess. But, poetic justice was served in the end. Each book seems to pack a serious punch at every turn and I'm not surprised at how quickly this series is becoming one of my favorites! Now, bring on my girl HR's book with her very own western hero, Lionel Danner *giddy*....more
Violent Triumphs, the final installment to the White Monarch trilogy by Jessica Hawkins was exhilarating!
Violent Triumphs begins right at the edge of the cliff where Violent Ends left us!
Natalia has completely changed from the previous books. She is no longer the naive, fragile, obnoxious woman she was in the prior two books. Now she's fierce. Now she's a fighter. Natalia proves herself worthy of standing by Cristiano's side and ruling as his Queen ...more
Suspenseful and sexy, Because You're Mine was such an enticing read!
Catalina is headstrong. She's a professional dancer with hopes and dreams. Both her father and brother have strong ties to the mafia and she knows from experience that nothing good comes from that world having escaped the life she inherited by blood... Until she's thrown back into it head first after meeting one, Lorenzo Costello.
Lorenzo, le #sigh. Tall, dark, handsome, and an enigma, Lorenzo has mesmerizing eyes that penetrate your soul. He too has ties to the mob and is someone who hates secrets, yet has some of his own. With an attraction brewing between him and Catalina, he finds himself unable to fight a relationship between himself and Cat any longer.
Together, Catalina and Lorenzo are fire and ice. They clashed and were drawn into a web of passion and danger they can't soon escape. Though this novel didn't quite reach it's mark for me, it had all the elements of what I love in a good mafia romance. I would have loved for certain scenes and mentions to have been shown rather than just being told from a character's point of view. Regardless, I was still on edge.
Because You're Mine is filled with so much lies, deceit, betrayal, and twists that will unravel you and have you shook! Claire Contreras has composed an action packed story that will leave you wanting more!!
"Who knew someone so wrong for me, so opposite would break everything I ever knew. Demolish the code of Outlaw and rebrand
5 BLACK BIRD STARS!
"Who knew someone so wrong for me, so opposite would break everything I ever knew. Demolish the code of Outlaw and rebrand the criminal that I am."
A bloodthirsty tale full of twists and turns, Retailiate had me on the edge of my seat at every page.
Felix and Alessandra were two broken souls on opposite sides of the spectrum. He's an outlaw and she's a cop. Even though they tried to fight their attraction, eventually their inner desires won and their demons found one another and claimed the other's soul.
Gritty. Raw. Suspenseful. Unforgettable and utterly sexy-Sin City Outlaws own my heart at this point. This book, this book!! M.N. Forgy has reached 'dark Queen' status with this one, blowing my mind completely!
P.S. I can't wait for my bae's book! Machete is one crazy motherf*cker and I can't wait to explore the confines of his twisted mind.
