Mafia Heiress by Angela Agnello


Think great set up.

Reading this I felt was more slow burn was later that realised this was to be a series. Was then appreciated it more as the book really seemed to set up for what could come.

It's great world building and you get proper chance to see the dynamics between the characters. Can't wait to see what is going to happen next.

Gian by Natalia Lourose


Perfect end to the Delgado Trilogy. 

The writing is fantastic just like the others  and had me gripped through it and I just loved the characters. Mafia of course often have arranged marriage so was good to fit this in here as Gian really never seemed to want to fall for someone and settle. 

I look forward to seeing more from the siblings so hope they will still be involved in other stories or novellas that are released but I found Gian's story ended the Trilogy so well.

Filthy Hot by Serena Akeroyd


Stole my heart.

This book was such an emotional rollercoaster for me and couldn't have asked for more. Well except the next installment which I will wait for impatiently.  

The writing was on top form and i just couldn't even think of stopping until got to the end. I find these are getting harder and harder to write reviews for so I don't spoil anything but is still one of my favourite series. 

This is one that I can't recommend enough and will reread myself as well. Hard topics are raised in the book so double check trigger warnings if have any.

Finley's Claim by Atlas Rose and Raven Scott


College Mafia Romance definitely needed this in my life.

So with this I have seen comments about this being far fetched and well yeh this might be the case but it was definitely what I needed to escape from reality. I couldn't put it down and finished this im one sitting.

Anna has been helping her father money launder and they are desperate to get out of the life. However, Anna goes to a Mafia type college on there own island and gets dragged even further in when she gets even closer to Finley, her boss' son and heir.

Finley's use to having his own way and yes their arre bits where alphaholeness slips out and bullies Anna to try and get his own way however she also has habit of fighting back too, even as she falls for him. 

Triggers warnings best be checked but honestly if you like Mafia romance and Bully college romance then this is the perfect combo. Definitely look forward to what else will happen with this series.

Xander by Aviana West


Such a great if emotional read.

I'm a huge fan of MC reads and so when saw this was releasing it went straight on to my to be read pile. I wasn't sure what I would get as have never tried the author before but it did not disappoint. 

The writing kept me interested and I did not want to put it down. The characters were done well so that through it I really felt for them. Jen has ran from her uncle and the mc she was raised with but Xander seems to be just what she needs.

There is parts some may find triggers them so I would check any warnings if there is something you find distressing or don't enjoy reading. This will be one I will recommend to other MC Romance readers and I look forward to seeing more from the Black Stallions MC and the author I the future.

Sweet Adeline by K.L Ramsey


Another awesome read. 

I am just loving this series that gives more of the law enforcement FBI side and this introduces us to Adeline, Ander's sister-in-law. 

This looks very closely to human trafficking and could be triggers so definitely one to watch out for but I found it very well wrote and couldn't put it down.

Was nice to see Anders again too but really that was an extra I loved Adeline and Landry in there own right. 

This is a must read for so many readers that I know I will be recommending any chance I get. I can't wait for more of both the series and the author in general.

Scarred by Eva Winners

Oh my god it just gets better.

Marked hooked me on this series of the Russian Sinners and Scarred has kept me just as enthralled. This looks at Oliva and Nikolai and it was so well done.

From Anastasia we know Olivia is in an arranged marriage and in trouble but this book gives us a much clearer picture of her as a whole and just how strong she is. 

Nikolai might not be the leader of the group but he was very much a dominant alpha male. There interactions right from the beginning had me unable to put this down. 

Can honestly not wait to see what happens next in the final book in the series or more from the author.

Golden Chaos by Colette Rhodes


This is the most awesome goldilocks inspired read I could have ever hoped for.

This is the finishing part to the three bears duet and I honestly didn't think could have been any better than the first but it really was.

The writing was so good with both tragic and  upsetting situations but also great humor and amazing characters I know this will get and read again. 

I devoured the two books one after the other and have been discussing and recommding wherever I can. Those who love some shifters with their romance need to check these bears out. Look forward to reading more of the authors work too.

If The Wand Sparkles by Sinclair Kelly


Have been waiting so long for this.

Or at least feels that way as been dying for it since the first installment. Author certainly hasn't let's me down I still had myself enjoying every second of it. Well until the end as now I need to wait again. 

I love the characters and having them in Fairytale city and not able to swear out loud had me laughing at the creative word choices. Get to see bit more about them all as well as finding them working through some of their difficulties.

Prince Charming is a great addition to have the guys show their jealous and possessive sides. 

I definitely recommend to those who enjoy MFM romances with a Paranormal twist. I will wait (probably impatiently) for the next and final novel of the series. I can't wait to see what comes next.

Monk by Winter Travers


Short but sweet.

For me this book was a great quick read which was exactly what I needed.  I finished this in one sitting and wanted more.

This book I been anticipating this since reading Six-Gun and it didn't disappoint.  I found myself engrossed with the writing and even found myself laughing out loud. 

Can't wait for more.
