I enjoyed reading Lainey Delaroque‘s Club Lavender Duet and the subsequent Dark Things series so I was curious to see how her first reverse harem novel would compare. The blurb didn’t give too much away so I was reading with little impression of what the book would be about. Unfortunately, things didn’t become much clearer throughout the book and I was left with several unanswered […]

I wanted to love Ruthless Monsters; it had so much potential and I tried so hard, but there were too many reasons that I couldn’t. Let’s start with the length: this was a lot of book to read. Usually, when a book packs a lot of story into its pages I see it as a good thing, but those books are often a good 200

Anybody who’s ever read a Saint View book will know that there’s always more going on than meets the eye. Every time Elle Thorpe pulls out more twists and turns than Bolivia’s Death Road. With Rebel Heart she’s gone one better and pulled off probably the most complex plot I’ve read from her yet. When we left Rebel in Rebel Obsessession Caleb and Hugh had

Having loved the other two books in The Cleanup series I was looking forward to getting dragged back into Olivia and Ellie’s world for The Payback. Technically you can read this book as a standalone, but it’s richer for reading the other books in the series. It’s much more fun when you understand Ellie’s friendship with Olivia, the things she went through with Nik, and

Remember back in Locked Up Liars, Mae had a sister Jayela, who was partnered up on the police force with a guy named Boston? What about when Liam took Mae to a strip club owned by Eve right before the place got shot up? Evil Enemy takes us straight back to that time and the protagonists in this book are the very same Eve and

Let me start by saying that picking this book up the day after gynae surgery was not a smart plan. The brain may have been willing but what’s left of my reproductive organs could not cope with all that Rebel Obsession had to offer. Sure, some of the book gets a little steamy, but other parts are pure filth. Now I’m going to have to

Going into this book I knew what to expect. Leelah Renn is skilled at breaking the reader and subsequently building them back up again while she takes them on a journey through Aria’s world. She did it in Morocco with Becoming Aria and carried on the trend as the group moved into Spain with Loving Aria. In the same vein as my review of Loving

While still a serial killer romance Pretty Little Tease is a shift from AJ Merlin’s previous books. Despite the FMC, Blair, naming her cam-watching alter-ego finalistgirl she’s nowhere near as much of a final girl as most of Merlin’s other FMCs. Although there’s killing in the backdrop of the story and the two MMCs are killers it takes a while for this to become apparent

The cliffhanger queen is back and you’re going to love this one. Or hate it. Or love to hate it. One of the above, anyway. But first, let’s go back to that other cliffhanger, the extra one we were left with in It Ends With Violence. Rebel’s story picks up a week after the events of that night, with her dealing with the aftermath of

Dark Pills was the Lainey Delaroque story I’ve been waiting for, ever since Lu-Na’s introduction into the Lavender world. They were a curious character, one you were never entirely sure what to make of, but as they reappeared through the Dark Things series I picked up on a few characteristics that would turn out to make a lot of sense once I started reading this

A campground at night, a lecherous creep, a final girl, and a serial killer. Brutal sounds like the perfect recipe for an AJ Merlin novel. Throughout her summer as a counsellor at Camp Clearwater, Hazel has been too interested in the perfect placement of fairy lights and avoiding Brett, the camp creep, to realise that she has a stalker. That is until Brett lures her

I’m still eagerly awaiting the conclusion of the Vox Tenor story but in the meantime, Leelah Renn is treating us to more of the delectable trio, this time in the form of their backstory. In the first two books, the guys make mention of a woman, Giselle, who was involved with all three of them and wrecked them when she left them. This book tells
