4.5 stars!!!! Again I have to say that I'm loving this dark read! I'm bummed that I have to wait for the last instalment until April 7th! At least it 4.5 stars!!!! Again I have to say that I'm loving this dark read! I'm bummed that I have to wait for the last instalment until April 7th! At least it isn't a year!!!! In this instalment I have loved to see the softer side of our characters! Well....as soft as either one of them can be! I also love how they are both so extremely flawed but they overlook each other's badness and love each other regardless! I'm sure either one would whip a gun out at me for even thinking the word love around them! Lol! After all; they are too tough for that!!!
Now my waiting begins!!! And I'm so glad I picked this serial up! Keri Lake knows how to write an anti- hero the RIGHT way!!!!!

I enjoyed this book, although it took me some time to become fully invested into Gregory and his own Willow Girl. We met Gregory in the first two bookI enjoyed this book, although it took me some time to become fully invested into Gregory and his own Willow Girl. We met Gregory in the first two books by this author. I saw that this is considered a stand-alone but to be honest.. I feel you need to read; “Torn” and “Taken” to get the history of what went on between Gregory, his Brother ( Sebastian), and Helena ( Sebastian’s wife). Without having all of their history, I just can’t see how a reader would be able to fully become engaged into the story!
I did enjoy that there was a mystery thrown into the history of the house that Gregory bought for him and Amelia. It adds to the other suspense that is going on in the story. The main reason I wasn’t able to give this a five star was because I felt Gregory was not as hard as he came across in the other books. On the whole, this book wasn’t nearly as dark as the other ones, and I felt that it should have been. Gregory was such a tormented soul, and bitter... and yes... it came out a bit like that in his character... but not as much as it should have! Obviously, it could be my own expectations of what his story should have been that made me slightly disappointed... Even in saying that though, I did enjoy the story enough to give it a four star rating!!!

I found Stefan’s softer side came out way more than in the first book. This helped me like him more seeing that he wasn’t all bad. Do keep in mind he is an antihero... When he wants to be a jerk, he does it very well! I still wonder how Gabriela put up with him!!!
Secrets come out and betrayals are revealed too. For the most part I was able to guess who betrayed Stefan, but I was still interested in all that was going on!
Another enjoyable read from Natasha Knight! I have read quite a few of her books already, but can’t wait to see what she brings to the table next! She is definitely an author to check out if you like a little darkness in your stories!

I have always loved Pam Godwins dark romances! She is the Queen of being able to redeem the unredeemable!!! I honestly didn’t think she would get me to feel any compassion for our hero... but she most certainly did! As for Kate ( our heroine) she was a kick ass woman and I loved her in this book! She was fierce when she needed to be, and vulnerable at times too. I thought she was perfect for Tiago, and definitely gave him a run for his money!
As always with Ms. Godwin’s stories; readers must be warned that there is dark content within the pages. It is important to remember that the anti- hero in this book is twisted and majorly unconventional. The sex is brutal, raw, and may turn some of you off. On the flip side though... he is extreme in his love for Kate. He’s beyond alpha, possessive, and intense! I personally loved that part of him! To love that wholeheartedly and be so captivated by someone, makes me kind of envious!! ( I know in reality it would be creepy! Lol) I have always known what kind of love stories I will get when I open Pam’s books and I just eat them right up!
My only complaint, and the reason I docked a half a star is that I would have liked to know a bit more about Tiago’s past. More information about his parents and how they treated him would have been good to know. I would have also liked to have known why his certain issue came about..( I don’t want to say what it is). Other than that I loved the story and this is one of my best books of 2019!

Once again Pam Godwin captured my attention with this dark and taboo read! I always expect to think outside of the box when I read one of her stories. This whole series has brought me out of my comfort zone and yet I still loved it all! I will warn readers that these books are not to be taken lightly. There is rape, kidnapping, and major violence... but within all of that depravity, love is found and from the ashes happiness comes!
In this instalment, you can expect a ménage relationship, as well as male/ male sex. If this isn’t your thing then you definitely want to pass on it. For me, I absolutely fell in love with the relationship between Tula, Martin, and Ricky. It was sooo intense and their sexual encounters were blazing hot!!! Their story was one I devoured and just couldn’t put it down! I only had a small complaint and that was I felt the conclusion was kind of rushed. Other than that I gobbled this right up!
If you are someone that loves dark reads, then this series is one you don’t want to miss!
Thank you to my dear Buddy Reader Steph!!! Sorry I rushed ahead but I couldn’t help myself

Wow! This was a wonderful read! I’m not usually fond of the whole “Daddy theme” when it comes to lovers; but I must say that I really enjoyed this oneWow! This was a wonderful read! I’m not usually fond of the whole “Daddy theme” when it comes to lovers; but I must say that I really enjoyed this one! In fact, the second half of this book I couldn’t put down and I read it in one sitting!
This is the third book in the series and it can be read as a stand alone. In my opinion though, I think it’s better to read the first two books because the characters are all connected and it helps to really feel all of emotions from everyone! These books are dark and definitely not for everyone! Each main couple bring forbidden taboos into the relationship! It’s best to be prepared to think outside of the box when reading this series!!!
I hear there is going to be another book, and honestly… I am eager for it! I’m super happy that I gave this author a try because I love her work so far!!...more
I was so excited to see this book was now out!! It has been a long wait…. Almost too long if I am being honest!!! I wasn’t disappointed in the least! I was so excited to see this book was now out!! It has been a long wait…. Almost too long if I am being honest!!! I wasn’t disappointed in the least! Tillie Cole has once again written a brilliant dark romance story that had me on the edge of my seat more than once! I will warn readers that this isn’t for everyone. There are more than a few triggers… and some of the content could be very upsetting for some. As for me, I loved it and I am very eager for more. My fingers are crossed that we won’t have to wait another few years for the next instalment!

Finch was the perfect hero for our heroine, Chris!! Her past was extremely traumatic and because of it the likelihood of her ever finding love was very low. When she discovers Finch for a business venture... that is illegal... they just immediately clicked. Finch ends up being so patient with her, and yet he doesn’t treat her like a victim. T he ey end up on a dark journey, and on the way their trust builds, and with that their attraction blazes!
This is a stand alone, but it’s also a part of the Henchmen series and the Navesink Bank world! I would recommend reading “The Rise of Ferryn “ first, because that is where the story of Chris’s past is told. It’s not for the faint of heart either.
Originally I was going to bypass this one as I didn’t think it needed to be read to continue the Henchmen series, but I am super glad I picked this one up! Not only do we get to see some of the crew, but Finch and Chris’s story is heartbreaking, heartwarming and so entertaining! I absolutely loved it!!!...more
I was really excited for this book as it continues Ferryn’s story of when she was taken by traffickers. She was a teenager when she was taken; but becI was really excited for this book as it continues Ferryn’s story of when she was taken by traffickers. She was a teenager when she was taken; but because she had been trained by her MC family, she ended up escaping on her own. She also saved another girl who had been held captive too! When she escaped though, instead of going back to her family home; she ran away. The Henchmen series continued, and years went on with no knowledge of where Ferryn was.
This is her story!!! Of where she ended up, and what she did!!! When she finally decides to come back to her family, she finds her teenage crush has now joined her Father’s motorcycle club.. and their attraction is still there! This is their story... and it was brilliant! I really enjoyed it, and I have to say that I can’t wait for the recluse Holden’s book! It’s going to be awesome!
I am finding that with all of Jessica Gadziela’s stories of the Navesink Bank world, I am never ready to leave! Luckily there are still many to read!! I have been reading about this world for over a month, and I’m still raring to go!!!!...more
