A young independent woman being faced with an arranged marriage and encounters a hot single dad? Yes please. Chasing Fire was on my radar from the moment I realized what this book was going to be about and I was more than ready for this dramatic sexy showdown.
Chloe Ryan has always been proud of what she does for a living. As a pediatric ER nurse, nothing is more important than her job and having her independence. But what happens when one of those things is threatened thanks to her family? Never one to bow down and be quiet, Chloe decides to take a stance against her family and by doing that she meets a man who has the power to turn her entire world upside down.
Colton Fisher loves being a dad to his six year old daughter. She's become the bright spot in his messy chaotic life and he would do it all over again if it means getting to see his daughter smile everyday. But his personal life is a mess and he has no more room for complications. Or so he thinks.
I really liked the flow of the story in the beginning and I loved that the heroine was so fierce!! This woman knew exactly what she wanted and she didn't cower in most situations which I really admired about her. I felt that the story was too fast paced for me and I didn't get to feel the connection between the main characters. Everything came together so quickly that I eventually gave up blinking because I didn't want to miss anything else. If things were slowed down a bit more and the characters were spending more time together one on one, there's no doubt that I would've enjoyed the story much more but that didn't happen.
Overall this was an okay fast paced quick sexy read and if you're in the mood for that, then you should definitely give this one a try.

I have to admit that I'm one of those readers who has to read the blurb of every book that I look at to determine if it’s worth it. Friends to lovers? I’m there. Heartache and Angst? Bring me all the wine. Forbidden romance? Just take my money. But there was something different about this book when I started reading the blurb for it and I realized that it was a gut feeling telling me that I NEEDED to read this story. And you know what? I paid attention and did it. Twenty four hours later... and I’m still thinking about it.
Charlotte Richards has been through her fair share of heartache and tragedy to last her a lifetime. Her emotional scars will never heal in the way that she wants it to and existing feels like a burden most days. When a chance encounter with a classmate changes her perspective on what was supposed to be the worst day of her life, Charlie makes a pact with her new friend. Little does she know that one handshake and a spoken promise is going to change her in ways that she’ll never see coming.
This story felt like it was intricately woven into my brain for the past few days. I started off reading a few chapters and had to stop because real life waits for no one and in those moments, I was still thinking about the next time that I was going to be able to pick it up again and just indulge without interference. These characters haunted me like you wouldn't believe and I needed to see how far they were going to take things. I wanted to feel at peace with them and even though I hated some of their decisions and the way some things were done, I still held them close to my heart.
I honestly thought that I knew what I was getting myself into when I started this book but I didn't. I know that I’m going to be thinking about these characters for a while because they left a mark and you felt everything that you were supposed to with them. Heartache, pain, fury, love loss, forgiveness, passion and acceptance. You felt it all and you embraced it all because deep down you know the darkness is only temporary and being in the light is worth it. I know that this is going down as one of my top favorite reads of 2021 and I’m so glad that I took this journey.

Get an alert when each book is live!
I never thought that I would feel so much for these characters, but I did and this is why this author is my go to when it comes to romance books. Washed Up was the exact type of book that I was looking for at this moment. It was comforting, slow and easy, wth the perfect mix of forbidden desire that you didn't know you were craving.
Forty seven year old Amanda has sacrificed a lot over the past thirty years but through it all the one bright light has been her son. After being in a tumultuous marriage that redefined her life, she’s now looking forward to getting her life back on track. But when an accident derails her plans and brings someone back from her past, life as Amanda knows it is about to get real complicated.
For the past ten years Greg has been going non stop when it comes to achieving a career in medicine. Now a highly respected doctor, he’s now looking forward to putting down roots and calling a place his own. Seeing his best friend’s mom after all these years was something that caught him by surprise but if you were to ask him if he’s upset with that, he’ll kindly smirk and tell you that’s the best thing that's ever happened to him since graduating med school. But what happens when the lines are blurred between a new found friendship and an impending forbidden romance?
I really enjoyed this one and I liked that it was more of a slow burn romance and you saw the development of their friendship, felt their connection towards each other and saw the passion that was looming. Everything wasn't always perfect and I did have a few issues some things but overall this was a really good read for me. If you’re looking for a slow burn forbidden romance, I highly recommend you go with this one.

I feel like I was waiting on this book forever!! R.C Boldt went from being a new author on my radar, to quickly earning a spot on my "Favorite Authors" list. When you decide to read one of her books, you quickly ditch your plans, cozy up in your favorite pajamas and have your snacks ready because you KNOW you're in for one heck of an entertainment. I really felt like this was going to be that kind of read for me and even though I'm a bit disappointed that it wasn't, I still love this author's writing and will continue to read her future books.
Liam King is very good at his job. Being one of the most sought after doctor in the country, he knows that his relationships with his patients and the people of the town is more important to him than anything. When he finds an injured woman washed Up on the beach, his first instinct is to not only take care of her, but to keep her safe. But little does he know that by doing so, he's just unleashed a deadly chain reaction.
I really liked the main characters in this story and I enjoyed their interactions with each other. The issue that I had with this one is that it felt extremely slow for more than half of the story. Nothing was happening and when we did get a glimmer of something, it was quickly snuffed out. I also went into this thinking that I was going to get this dark action packed mystery and I got something else entirely.
Aside from those things, I think if you're looking for a slow burn romance with a bit of action and mystery, then this one's for you.

War, the second book in The Four Horseman series by Laura Thalassa, is available for FREE with Kindle Unlimited!
Blurb
They came to earth—Pestilence, War, Famine, Death—four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world. Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity. They came to earth, and they came to end us all.
The day Jerusalem falls, Miriam Elmahdy knows her life is over. Houses are burning, the streets run red with blood, and a traitorous army is massacring every last resident. There is no surviving this, especially not once Miriam catches the eye of War himself. But when the massive and terrifying horseman corners Miriam, he calls her his wife, and instead of killing her, he takes her back to his camp.
Now Miriam faces a terrifying future, one where she watches her world burn town by town, and the one man responsible for it all is her seemingly indestructible “husband”. But there’s another side to him, one that’s gentle and loving and dead set on winning her over, and she might not be strong enough to resist.
However, if there’s one thing Miriam has learned, it’s that love and war cannot coexist. And so she must make the ultimate choice: surrender to War and watch humankind fall, or sacrifice everything and stop him.

Blurb
They came to earth—Pestilence, War, Famine, Death—four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world. Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity. They came to earth, and they came to end us all.
When Pestilence comes for Sara Burn’s town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death. Unless, of course, the angelic-looking horseman is stopped, which is exactly what Sara has in mind when she shoots the unholy beast off his steed.
Too bad no one told her Pestilence can’t be killed.
Now the horseman, very much alive and very pissed off, has taken her prisoner, and he’s eager to make her suffer. Only, the longer she’s with him, the more uncertain she is about his true feelings towards her … and hers towards him.
And now, well, Sara might still be able to save the world, but in order to do so, she'll have to sacrifice her heart in the process.

Locked Hearts is the conclusion in the very tumultuous and complicated love story of Sailor and Keir. All bets were off in this story and if you thought Keir was jail worthy in the first book, you’re in for one heck of a bail money check for this one.
Picking up right where Chained Hands left off, Sailor’s life has changed all for the better. With a new purpose and responsibility, she’s determined to forget about Keir and move on with her life as best as she can. But that’s easier said than done because with a man like that, there’s no forgetting. EVER.
It’s been months since Sailor walked away from Keir but for him it feels like yesterday. Knowing it was for the best so he can have a clear head and fulfill his other responsibilities, Keir is still not a happy man. But what happens when he decides to risk it all for her? Will his empire crumble or will the King finally get his true Queen?
If I had to sum up this duet in a few words it would be something like this: A sexy forbidden trainwreck that will make you wish these characters were real. Part of you will want to knock some sense into them and the other half will want to be in a front row seat of all the high action drama.
If you’re looking for a quick sexy duet with some dark themes, then this one is for you.
I was a nanny in need of a job.
He was darkness personified.
I had little to call my own.
He was filthy rich, powerful, and dangerous.
The assignment was simple, and my goal was too.
Take care of his son. Keep my head down. When he least expects it, destroy him.
It should have been easy. I thought it would be until I looked into his stark blue eyes.
Kissing the enemy is a bad idea, but so is falling in love with him.
He doesn’t know my crumbling foundation is built on lies.
When he discovers the truth, I’ll find out if he’s as brutal as I believe.
I came here to steal his life.
I didn’t count on him stealing my heart.
Dangerous Temptation by Giana Darling is now live!
He arrives all dressed in black. Diamond cufflinks. A watch on his tanned wrist that cost more than we would ever see in a lifetime of work. He carries a single red rose for my mother.
Months later, Tiernan Morelli lays red roses on my mother's grave. That same day, he tells me that he is my new guardian.
I should have known from the very start that he had more in common with the thorns than the rose. Now I know the truth: I'm a pawn in his dangerous game of revenge. I was too young and naive. Now it's too late to save myself from his clutches.
I belong to him.

We were desperate for it and we finally got it with Dangerous Temptation. Giana Darling always knows how to toy with the edge of danger and forbidden and this story was no different. When your whole world implodes in one single moment and you’re forced to see things in a different light, how do you go forward knowing that you now belong to the devil himself?
Seventeen year old Bianca now has to come to terms with the fact that she’s alone. Taking care of her little brother has always been her number one priority and she will do just about anything to make sure that he’s safe and happy. But when she learns of the person that will now be her guardian until she’s eighteen, she quickly realizes that keeping herself safe is going to be the least of her problems. Temptation comes in many forms and there’s no escaping a man like Tiernan.
I have to admit that I’m new to the Midnight Dynasty saga with the different feuding families and I was under the impression that this was going to be one book. I quickly learned that it’s not and even though I’m really looking forward to see how Bianca and Tiernan’s story is going to end, I can't help but wonder what’s next for the other family. I wanted to see just how far things can be taken because as much as I love a forbidden romance, I love a dark one even more.
When it came to the characters interactions and their connections with each other, I think that the author did a good job portraying their feelings and I loved that this story was told in dual pov’s. My only issue with this one was that I needed to know more about the hero and I feel like even though he had his own pov, he still felt like a stranger. Seeing that this is the first book in the duet, I’m hoping that will change and we can see exactly the type of man that he is.
If you’re looking to start a new duet and you want a dark forbidden romance, then this one might be for you.
