It has an arranged marriage, some enemy to lover tension, lots of family betrayal and trauma, and some fun spice in this futuristic fantasy. I didn't feel there was much worldbuilding though, and the events unfold quite quickly so it was hard to get too invested in the characters and their romance. I did like his possessive and protective nature though especially when his dragon tried to come through.

I loved it from start to finish, with all the political intrigue, the gothic atmosphere, the slow burn tension, and the Empress's keen wit, intelligence, command and compassion. I adored the bond between Luca and Arabella, and how their unexpected circumstances drew their fates together. Their slow burn romance is filled with curiosity, desire, hostility and passion. I enjoyed his seductive nature, v's Arabella's fierce and no nonsense attitude. They are the perfect pairing. I liked the suspense and danger from their secret relationship, and learning about Luca's past including his sire. There are several characters that are lovable, and several that are easy to hate, so it keeps you on edge guessing their schemes throughout. I thought it was heading for a nice resolution then that ending hit so hard. Will 100% be reading book 2.
✨ "He wasn't a demon. He was something. Much darker than that"
✨ "I am no one's property...least of all a vampire's!"
✨ "We were not empress and enigma. We were simply Arabella and Luca- surrendering to a passion that transcended time, duty and mortality itself"...more

Sariel, a demon prince is on a quest to find his soulbound, but when he uses his family's relic to portal to earth he ends up being captured and held prisoner. Elowen has dreamed about a demon for months, and now she's face to face with him locked in a cell and forced to care for him and retrieve DNA samples for her master. Their chemistry is instant and undeniable, he only wants to please his mate, she cares for him and makes him beg, and their forced proximity only brings their bond closer.
It's a layered plot of fated mates, dom/sub dynamics, sexual exploration, and trying to escape their prison. There is also mystery, drama, banter, lots of lust and portal travel. One to read if you love spicy monster romances. Can't wait for more of this series.

So much pain, sacrifice and devastation, but balanced so well against the tension, wit, snarky banter and cast of entertaining and lovable characters. Oh my this is definitely full of surprises, drama, twists and heartache. I loved seeing more of Tye as he battles with his wolf and tries to fight his protective instincts. His forced proximity with Kaiya is full of steamy tension and some delicious scenes including the woods and cooking! There is so much mystery with spicy and cryptic dreams, escape plots, a hooded stranger, corruptive bonds and missing allies, this definitely leaves an impact, and the ending was another level! I absolutely love the characters in this story, the bonds they are forging, the distinct personalities, and the balance of light and dark. Can't wait for more of this epic series....more

This is Roxie's second book, and it was an emotional and suspenseful ride, with romance, drama, spice and shocking reveals.
Zoey is a successful business woman, caring and compassionate, but hiding a haunting past and vulnerability behind her confident facade. Aiden is a dedicated bodyguard, protective and loving, but ruined by his emotional baggage.
The plot skillfully navigates a suspenseful mystery threat on Zoey's life with multiple suspects and escalating events, estranged friends reluctantly working together in close proximity, and uncovering the secrets of the past and the causes of heartache. The flashbacks add depth to the characters seeing their past unfold, and experiencing their ups, downs and tragedies, as the pieces come together to shape their turbulent history. This is a love story with complex and wounded characters, passion and sacrifice, and a dangerous threat that lurks in the shadows.

What starts a rescue mission in the post apocalypse world filled with dangerous alien monsters, quickly becomes an intense lust filled conquest between Roxy and the enticing shifters that have joined the mission. These shifters are driving Roxy wild and it doesn't take long till she embraces her cravings and their little group of rogues becomes a heated polycule. Throw in some drama from Wolf's past, an innocent but curious new female addition, and a LOT of exploring, and the steam is bouncing off the pages. The multiple POV helps give insight into the large cast, so you get a better understanding of where everyone's desires lie. If you want something full of spice, with a fierce and compassionate FMC, shifter lust, and heaps of passion, grab yourself a copy....more

This is an angsty beauty and the beast retelling, with an amazing slow burn build up, steamy encounters, and enemy to lover feels. Thea's attitude is everything, and I love that she rebels against him, even though she is secretly intrigued, It explores her conflicted desires so well. And Alaric is definitely more than he seems, with his cruelty and caring sides in balance.

Mina is a true survivor, but she is far from safe from the serial killer and her psychotic family. As the 7 men all rally to protect her, they are racked with guilt over their failings, and desperate to show they all love her and grovel for forgiveness. They each have their own personalities, nicknames, and ways of helping Mina, this was sweet to see and Hella spicy when they advanced their relationship. I liked that Mina found her voice, gained her confidence and freedom, and found comfort in her new family. Also the twists were fantastic, as they've been tracking the serial killer, it exposes Mina's past, disturbing secrets come to light, and they discover dangerous and toxic obsessions. It's a good mix of spice, transformation, revenge, trauma and healing, with some truly psycho characters.

Following two POV you are emersed into two gripping journeys, filled with secrets, growing romances and dire stakes. I loved seeing the character growth, delightful banter and the ease at which they fall. I liked the added drama of the intense sibling rivalry, arranged marriages, waring factions and battles over resources. Ava and Kush are fascinating to see and I loved the hidden identities, and Maria and Elex are so swoony together! Excited to read the next books adventures....more

Nym is obsessive, controlling and complex, he's set his sights on Pearl, and has dark plans to gain her submission whether she wants it or not. Stalked, blackmailed, kidnapped and caged, Pearl is pushed to her limits by the masked stranger, yet curiously drawn to figuring him out too. Nym can come across as arrogant and it took me a while to like him as a character, but when his barriers come down and you see his vulnerability it opens up whole new layers to him. I like that they challenged each other, and unknowingly provide healing and comfort for their own traumas. I also enjoyed the added layers of mystery, drama, intrigue, and secrets.

Her background is tragic, her pain raw, and she is determined to let her rage fuel her ambitions as the 7 sins killer, until her plans come crashing down from unexpected desires. This is fast paced, spicy, a perfect tale of revenge and secrets, with a stabby FMC out for revenge, and her good boy. The ending sets the scene nicely for more to come in the series, and more intriguing characters that will be fun to see in action.

Alard is a prince from the fairy realm essentially on an extended vacation to earth before returning to his mandatory responsibilities to his family and Kingdom. Raz is a human who stumbles into Alard repeatedly, sparking their instant connection and entangling them on an unexpected but powerful journey. With threats of war, coming to terms with new realms, and trying to break a bond, it's an entertaining plot of trying to untangle accidental unions, whilst inexplicably falling in love. I loved the magical realm and creatures, the sweet characters, and the inclusivity.

It follows on from the events in Red (a spicy red riding hood retelling) and the main couple Julia and Alex. They are now a bonded pair as fated mates, as well as King and Queen, but that doesn't mean they are away from danger and threats. As Alex grows more protective of his mate, Julia is struggling with her new life and lack of purpose, whilst constantly craving Alex's presence thanks to her increased heat. This is packed full of spice and kinky content (primal, biting, breeding, somno...), but I also loved the worldbuilding and the increased focus on the world of paranormal creatures. It's got action, drama, a grumpy gargoyle bodyguard who doesn't understand boundaries, and a found family bunch of sarcastic monsters who will do anything for each other. I loved the elements of ancient supernaturals too including Lucifer and Lillith, and all the hints it's dropping of events to come. This is a fab monster romance series and gives Alex and Julia their moment to shine. Can't wait for more of the other characters journeys.
