When Darkness Ends by Marni Mann is now live!
You never forget your first love, even when they become just a memory.
There was before.
When we were together, when we were happy.
When we had nothing but dreams.
When not a single bad thing could ever happen because we were young and in love.
And there was after.
When the unthinkable occurs, how do you count time, knowing how precious it is?
When dreams turn to nightmares, how do you wake up every day and choose to go on?
When you have a chance to save another, how can you not?
Even if it changes everything.
Even if it destroys you.
A harrowing, heartbreaking dark contemporary romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann, the third installment in the Moments in Boston series of stand-alones that explores the darkest nights and brightest dawns of the heart. A book that will leave you aching ... and looking over your shoulder.

When Darkness Ends is the final book in the Moment In Boston Series and we were given something slightly different than we were used to from the previous books.
Going from past to present and told in multiple povs, this story was about a couple who from the very beginning had a few roadblocks set out for them but they made it on their terms. Pearl Daniels never really had it easy growing up but thanks to the love and determination of her Grandmother, her childhood became memorable. Now a College student and working to ends meet, she still has a few issues from her past and the main one is trust. When Ashe Flynn enters her world at warp speed and gives her something she never thought would have been possible for a woman like her, Pearl realizes that this man is truly one of a kind. But not everything can be smooth sailing and this couple is about to learn that painfully.
I liked that this book took on a more darker theme and were given more than one pov. Ashe was everything in this story and if I’m being completely honest, he made it more enjoyable. I sat up a little straighter when it was his turn to tell us his heartbreak and his truth and I only wished that we were given more of those moments because we needed to see them.
Even though I think that the ending was rushed and more could've been done, fans of this series will still enjoy this one. Marni Mann will take you on a journey that you will be glad you took.

I am the villain of my own story...
Jilted by my fiance.
A disappointment to my family.
Haunted by my childhood traumas.
I felt so much all my life that I resolved to feeling nothing at all.
Until I met my match.
As the most infamous mafioso of the 21st century, Dante Salvatore was madly passionate, unequivocally bad, and entirely too dangerous to know. He was everything I abhorred, yet I found myself representing him in the biggest criminal trial of the decade.
I was so focused on winning and achieving the success I deserved that I didn't notice the gorgeous black-eyed man's effect on me until it was too late. My icy heart had been held too close to his flame and now I wouldn't let Dante go down without fighting with everything I had in me.
Even if the cost of a new life with him meant the loss of my old life and everything I thought I held dear.
A Fate of Wrath & Flame by K.A. Tucker is now live!
Gifted thief Romeria has flourished from her days as a street kid pilfering wallets to survive. Now she thrives, stealing jewels from the rich under the involuntary employ of New York City's most notorious crime boss. But when an enigmatic woman secures her services at swordpoint, Romeria is plunged into a startling realm of opposing thrones, warring elven, and elemental magic she cannot begin to fathom.
Her quest is straightforward: Steal a stone from Islor's sacred garden without anyone discovering her true identity, which would earn her certain death. But the identity she has inexplicably assumed is that of the captured Ybarisan princess--an enemy to Islor after she poisoned their beloved king and queen on the day she was to marry the prince.
Her betrothed, the newly crowned King Zander, detests her with every grain of his handsome being. Fortunately for Romeria, she is more valuable to him alive than dead. Zander gives her a choice: life in a cell, or an acquittal of all charges in exchange for her help in exposing the growing plot against him.
Romeria sees no other option and embraces the tricky role of smitten queen-to-be until she can escape, a ruse that brings her far closer to the king than she anticipated and threatens more than her safety. As she digs deeper into this sacred garden and the ancient feud between Ybaris and Islor, she discovers monstrous truths that could spell ruin for all.

Well this was one heck of a journey. I'm emotionally exhausted but I feel like this had to be done. You were put in that place to have the breath knocked out of you in a sense and with that came raw emotions. Frustration, anger, sadness, resentment, loss, triumph and happiness. All of these feelings, all of these emotions, were for a story that showed you the true meaning of what it means to sacrifice something for the most important thing in your life.
Going into this story, I knew that it was going to be a bit of a tough one based on the prologue. My first thought was wanting to know right away how did it get to this point? Then the hero took us back between the past and the present and quite honestly, I wished a few times that he would've stayed in the present because going back? That was when the pain started. We saw those critical life changing moments and we knew… we knew that this was going to hurt and yet we proceeded without caution anyway.
I'm going to be honest and very vague with this review because for a story like this, it has to be done. I really loved the fact that this story was told in the hero's POV because at the end of the day, this was more of his journey. We saw exactly how he felt and the decisions he made in trying to navigate this thing called life and I loved that he did what was best for his family.
Now with that being said, some of those exact things left me frustrated as well and I just wanted to scream one word. One word and a lot could've been avoided including heartache but they don't call it angst for nothing.
If you're a fan of this author, then I think you're going to enjoy this emotional second chance romance read. But I have to warn you,have the tissues ready and the wine on chill!!

Fallen Jester by Devney Perry is now live!
Leo Winter loves his life. He works when he needs money. He rides when he craves freedom. He frequents the local bar when he wants a good time. The Tin Gypsies might be a memory, but the bachelor life he lived with his motorcycle club still suits him fine. So when a one-night stand surprises him at a family barbecue and claims she's pregnant with his child, he's certain he's died and gone to hell.
Cassandra Cline took one night off from her structured life. One. And now her wild fling with the local bad boy has turned her life sideways. Her dreams and academic career are circling the drain, and none of it would have happened if she'd stayed far, far away from Leo.
Except avoiding him is impossible, especially when she's forced to move home to Clifton Forge, Montana. And he refuses to leave her side when a series of strange accidents put her and their baby at risk. But are they accidents? Or is she standing in the middle of a battlefield she doesn't understand?
Her only allies are people she barely knows. And a man who has the potential to steal her heart.
If only he'd stop playing the fool.

Getting to read this series has been one of the highlights and joys of being a reviewer and reader. With each new installment, the stakes get higher, the risks more deadlier, and the bond that all of these characters have with each other, has only solidified. This series just keeps getting better and better and I for one am here for the ride.
Twenty Four year old Cassandra Cline has always lived life by the book. Hard working student, respectful daughter, loyal friend, you name it and she’s the epitome of a “good girl”. Deciding to let her hair down for one night and indulge with the well known local playboy and ex biker Leo Winters, she gets way more than she could have possibly asked for. What happens when one night changes the entire course of your life?
Playboy, rebel, lawless, loner in his own right, are some of the words that Leo has been called and if you asked him, he’s ok with it to some extent. When his eyes land on a fiery redhead that challenges him, he knows that for one night this woman is going to be different than anything else he’s ever experienced. Well you know what? he was right.
I have been going back and forth a little bit trying to decide out of all of the male and female heroes that this author has put out in this series, who are my favorite. I cannot choose!! But I really don't need to and that’s what I love. Every couple was different and they brought something unique to this tight knit group of friends and family. Cass and Leo were the complete opposites of each other but they fit so perfectly well. He was rough around the edges but his heart and his driving force to be a protector is what made Leo, LEO WINTERS.
I cannot say this enough and I don't think I ever will. If you have not read this series, please stop procrastinating and get to it!! I promise that you won't be disappointed if you do.

He doesn't believe there are exceptions to breaking the law. That's where we differ.
They once silenced me and countless others, but now I've reversed our roles.
Because, this time, it's my turn to be the silencer.

"Sometimes, it takes becoming a monster in order to kill one".
R.C Boldt never ceases to amaze me when it comes to the depth of her writing. Every detail, every plot is well thought out in her eyes and then she gives it to her readers so we can indulge. The Silencer takes on a more darker and sensitive theme than her previous stories and even though this wasn't my all time favorite read from this author, I still loved that she took on a story like this and made us listen.
Dr. Kennedy Alexandre is the best at what she does in her line of work. With a 87% conviction rating, this woman does not rest until justice is served whether judicially or her own way. Every case is personal for her and even though it makes her want to crawl out of her own skin sometimes, she never stops fighting for the victims. When she gets a high profile case with one of the top FBI's agent, Kennedy knows that from here on out, things are going to get even more complicated and even deadlier.
This story is not for the faint of heart and I'll be honest, I felt like my heart was tore open a few times at the mention of certain things but this author did a wonderful job with portraying this sensitive subject matter. I loved the fact that the heroine was a warrior in her own right. She never wavered when it came to dishing out her own type of punishment and she tried her best to prevent anyone else from having permanent scars that time nor distance wouldn't heal.
Now even though I really liked certain things when it came to this story, a lot of other things quite frankly just didn't work for me sadly. I enjoyed the first half of the book but for some reason when that mark came, everything slowed down and became predictable. There was no element of surprise and suspense and that alone left me feeling disappointed. I was expecting a lot more when it came to the execution of the story and sadly I didn't get that.
I think that if you've read this author's work in the past, then you're still going to enjoy this story but keep in mind that this deals with some heavy subject matter. If you're looking for semi dark mystery romance, then this one might be for you.

The door slamming makes me squeal in fright as Kane steps closer to me.
“Scared, Princess?”
“Of you?” I ask with a smirk. Leaning in, I stop right before our noses touch. “Never.”
“Wrong fucking answer, baby.”
His fingers tighten a beat before his lips slam down on mine.
My fingers claw at the hand that’s still holding me around the throat as I keep my lips together, refusing to give into him. We need to talk. We need to act like grown-ups, not sex-crazed teenagers.
“Open your fucking mouth, Princess,” he demands, his lips brush mine and make my mouth water for a taste of him.
Keeping my lips firmly closed, I shake my head.
A growl rumbles deep in his throat causing a surge of heat to flood my core. “Where’s my dirty little whore, huh?”
His hand skims my waist before cupping my breast and pinching my nipple hard.
Exactly as he intended, I gasp and he plunges his tongue into my mouth.
I still resist but it’s futile because we both know I’m not going to be able to keep it up.
“Fight all you like, Princess. You know how hard it gets me.” He grinds his cock into my stomach and my body sags against the wall.
“Yeah, baby. I’ve missed you too.”
His lips kiss and his teeth nip down my jaw, his hand releases my throat, instead wrapping around one side and holding me tight with his fingers in my hair.
“You smell like sin, Princess.”
“Funny, because I was thinking that’s just how you taste.”
“Match made in hell, Princess. I thought you already knew this.”
Kane Legend.
