Hero (Alpha Mountain #1)Hero by Renee Rose
Description:
Welcome to Alpha Mountain, the powerful new series by USA Today bestselling authors Vanessa Vale and Renee Rose. Where strong, alpha men will move mountains to protect and claim their women
Our Thoughts 💭:
"We men do this not because you are weak but because you're important "
Best line ever!!!
Ford lost his best friend under suspicious circumstances. After trying to uncover the truth he finds himself with a dishonorable discharge - except he didn't go as quietly as they believed
Now he was tasked with fulfilling Buck's final request
Watching over his little sister
Only she's not so little anymore and she's not about to be "brothered"
These two were hades hot 🔥 together
The tension - the failed attempts at disinterest
Ford was quite literally the definition of steel - battle proven -
Both a sword and a shield - whichever was needed of him
Solid
Yet, still able to bend when necessary and he owned up to his mistakes
And he knew when he was beat
This has heat
All kinds of smexy moments
Mystery
A bit of angst
Suspense
And a HEA that left me wanting more!

Taming The Dragon (Sparks Of Desire #5)Taming The Dragon by Valerie Twombly
Description:
His past broke him.
She can heal him.
Our Thoughts 💭:
Kadin has no intentions of mating - especially with a human who is physically weaker than a shifter. Seems his dragon does not agree and is going to make Ava his mate even if he has to wait out Kadin.
Ava has a bit of trouble when it comes to standing up to her family, and staying positive about her body.
But sometimes the heart knows what it wants and thankfully it has more control than the brain.
Kadin, what is it with the whole caveman mentality?
I understand they are your younger siblings and you believe you know best - Experience and all that (insert eye roll here)
However - you are letting your past experiences jade your views
Let go and give them a chance to fly
Avery do not listen to them. You are smart, funny, sexy, and have the skills to go all the way. And might I strongly suggest clubbing that stubborn yet scrumpdillyicious dragon over the head and dragging him back to your cave ;)
Yes, I jumped into the middle of this series without reading the previous books - Not sure how as I enjoy Twombly's writing style and own a lot of her work.
Despite not having read the previous books I had no problem following along and understanding the backstories - you know I will be going back to the beginning because this was filled with twists, OMG moments, smexy moments, and an outstanding cast of supporting characters

Isle of Sin (The Sinful 8, #2)Isle of Sin by S. Firecox
Description:
Welcome to Sinners Isle.
Where dark fantasies come alive.
Allow me to be your guide…
This is a standalone dark romance featuring a sadist who loves to play with knives and a feisty innocent who isn’t afraid to bleed
Our Thoughts 💭:
Dreams...
Asher Sinner - da m m mmm does that man live up to his name
The tension between him and Adalyn 🔥
That burn of desire that simmered just beneath the surface
Adalyn was a "bride in training" - a commodity for her father to wield like coin
She was fighting so hard not to become a shell of who she was
To escape the life of servitude to vile men who took pleasure in her defilement
When the opportunity arose to escape
She took it
Out of all the scenarios she foresaw
Asher was not one of them
Can she trust his actions?
His words?
Can he do the impossible?
This was such an emotional journey - yes there are some dark elements but the connection between Ash and Adalyn
The way Asher took care of her *licked him he is mine*
Her inner struggle to believe in him
The patience he showed while she tested the waters, found her footing in this new reality
🤗😍

Gossamer in the Darkness (Fantasyland, #5.5)Gossamer in the Darkness by Kristen Ashley
Description:
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Ashley brings a new story in her Fantasyland series…
When all seems lost, the Count finds his miracle: There’s a parallel universe where his daughter has a twin. He must find her, bring her to his world and force her to make the Marquess fall in love with her.
Our Thoughts 💭:
My cheeks hurt from grinning so much
Seriously though - this is worth a week of "fancy" coffees ☕️
Maxine our take no 'misogynistic bull puckery' heroine
and her 'take control with aplomb' mom have been kidnapped
Not just from their home but from their world
Now to save her mom Maxine must marry a stranger and bear him a child
Let's just say it does not go as well as the captor intended or the groom for that matter
I fell in love with these characters from the first meet and greet
Did not want to close that final page and say goodbye
The world-building was so vivid and the story just flowed from the pages
I am flabbergasted that I missed this author/series
You can rest assured I will be rectifying that blunder at once
This is one of the reasons I am so fond of the 1001 Dark Night Novellas
I always seem to find new authors and/or series
This one?
Lightly angsty, a bit of mystery and suspense, a touch of wonder and romance, and a whole lot of mischievous fun

AntichristAntichrist by Amo Jones
Description:
When the president of the New York chapter of the Seven Knights MC dies, he passes the gavel down to Niko… but unknown to anyone else, that’s not the only thing he left him.
It started with a bond that destroyed everyone around them…
…it ends with blood.
this is a DARK ROMANCE. Please check triggers
Our Thoughts 💭:
The Gravitron...
No way - now I have questions
This was a wild ride - a bit like the gravitron at the carnival -
Everything is happening so fast, you are struggling to make sense of events when you think you got it
BAM!
The floor drops out from under you and all you can do is silently scream ( no oxygen because you are frozen in fear) and pray this he ll ends soon
NO peeking ahead!!!
The storyline jumps from now to then and back again and at times in between the past and the present (don't try to rationalize)
There are lots of crimson splatters
Some spine-tingling Holy Hades moments
Betrayals and twists you don't see until it's too late
This is for those who bathe in the deep end of the dark and slightly deranged genre pool

Remi's War (Four Dark Horsemen #2)Remi's War by V.F. Mason
Description:
Power. Money. Status.
I clawed my way to the top.
And if someone dares to go against me?
I viciously destroy them.
Every monster knows one rule:
To win a war you have to dethrone the king.
And for that, I have to have her.
Our Thoughts 💭:
"Sometimes the monsters are the only salvation against the poison polluting this earth"
Remi has always held a special place in my heart. He is the only horseman that does not have the backing of a family empire.
Blood - not chosen family
Penelope our sweet little dreamer who decides it is time to find her sister...
I got to give it to her she has some seriously big ovaries!
She gave as good as she got - even when her heart was cracking wide open
"I'll drag her right along with me so we can both burn together"
Remi was drawn to her light from the moment they bumped into each other -
This has all the horseman - some cameo's from Lachan and his group - Not as much crimson splatter but there is some - an " arranged marriage" - a very feral Alpha - and...
OH MY GOODNESS wait for the twists and reveals
