I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. So far every book I've read by Anna has been amazing! She truly knows how to write amazing books. This is a prequel to out Blairwood University where we get to know Hayden and Callie but also the rest of the crew. This book, I'd say, is a sweet high school romance with a few twists and turns that you'll end up loving. Emmett is a sweet high school guy who once sets his eyes on a newbie named Katherine and knows right away that she's the right one, BUT will she feel the same way? This story was sweet, tempting and I'd say slow-burn? There were a few parts in the book where I sympathised with the characters so much. Especially Katherine. She doesn't have it easy. Her mother is nearly "nonexistent", her father IS nonexistent and then she has her sister, whom she loves beyond grave! They don't have an easy life, having to count on each other more than on their mother. Also can't truly trust a lot of people, because of what happened in the past. A few times I actually thought the book will lead us a different way. My mind is a twisted little thing, but I'm actually happy that Anna chose the right way. The character I have to mention is Penny! Kath's little sister. She's amazing, I love her so much! She's a sweetheart, caring and loving. Doesn't see the bad in people and loves everyone. She truly deserves her own books, because I need to know how her life will continue. The ending + the epilogue (bonus) were amazing. We got the exact ending as I would expect from such a story...to some degrees (*cough*Becky*cough*). Our high school sweethearts have to live forever and ever, because they were meant to be. Their once in a lifetime will never end!

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I've started reading this book yesterday morning and finished the say day. There was just something in this book that got me to read it so fast. Maybe it was the waiting for something to happen or the unknown of the author's work. Whatever it was, I had to read and read and read till the end. Even thought I read this book in "one sitting" I still missed something big! The book was amazing, I loved every dark second of it. I just truly needed that one "over the top" danger and make it huge! The relationship between the two main character was dark, sometimes confusion but overall nice. I loved how it involved from nearly nothing to something big and beautiful. There were dark and sinister parts to their relationship, but honestly I really liked it. As weird as it was, I was here for it. If I should judge the book by it's cover, I would say that we got probably 75% of it. I love the cover, because it's dark and ominous just like the book. The steamy parts of this book were H.O.T.!! Like fire hot!!! I can't wait to read and review the second part of this book. I don't know whether to hate or love the ending. The strongest emotion is confusion! The way she ended the book got me so confused, I was up all night thinking how or what?! Thank you for the opportunity to review this book.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. This book is my second read by the author. Both books I really liked, but for me it lacked something. As I'm going to repeat for xth time, I love a little more spice and danger in my book. That doesn't mean that this book was bad or wasn't good enough. Quite opposite! I found the book better than the first book I've read by the author. This book is kind of like a soft romance with grief. It is slow and sometimes punishable, but overall you get a happy ending. The way these characters had to get to each other was really beautiful and I'd say even real. We all have those thoughts and feelings for another person that we can't show or something even acknowledge, but after a long while you either get through them or you'll be "haunted" by them whether as a good or a bad thing. The beginning of this book was rather slow but building tension. You could definitely feel and kind of experience what the characters are going through. From the emotional point of view I like the say that this book was really really well done. You could feel how the characters were trying to get together but at the same time they were really scared of hurting each other and everyone around them. Being this kind of trapped they didn't know whether to confess their feelings or just hide them away because you never know when it is real or when it is just an imagination. To be honest I really loved the friendship in this book and how close they were. We had three friends that knew each other for a long time and I loved how V. McFarlane made the friendship so strong in this book. This book is about two people who are trying to find their way to each other but at the same time protect their hearts and their loved ones. Along the way they figure out some things and also deal with their emotions and how to correctly place them. Grief loss and love are the biggest most devastating emotions that could be out there and I have to say that the author did a really good job with representing these emotions with characters and how they perceived their feelings. No I think I end the book with saying that I loved the ending. I loved what happened at the end. It was something for me, something that I am kind of obsessed with, even though it's messed up to me but I loved it. And also I can't wait for a second book if I get the chance to read it, because I can't wait to see how Decker's life will be and if Demi will end up with Decker or if they're just going to hook up or something, so yeah. Thank you for giving me the chance to review this book.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. When I started reading this book I was very hopeful of the character Ivy. As give she is Ember and Vin's daughter so I hoped, she'd have their character. And it didn't disappoint. She truly represents her mother, but she's also different and herself. The story in this book is kind of ironic given to the Ember's story and to be honest I kind of really liked it. Yes, I was expecting it to be more "Ember fighting style", but we got something different. At the beginning of the book, I have to say I didn't like Ivy much, it took me a while to finally like her. I was still expecting her to be really more like her mother, but she was different and that just got me. After a while thought and after I found out her life story, I admired her! Growing up being Green or Torres, you'd think it'd give you so much protection and freedom, when actually it did the opposite. Ivy felt trapped and unable to rely on people a lot. The actual thing you get thought is love, and you'd get tons of it! What was infuriating, as I've read the first 4 books, was that Ivy couldn't tell her parents what's going on, because she thought they would judge her so much. When in fact, alone Ember has done so many crimes that I don't think she's even legitimate to judge 😂 That was honestly the only thing that got me thinking "WHAT THE HECK?!". This wasn't the exactly dark, dark book like Through the Pain, but it wasn't lighter either. It had it's ups and downs and throughout you just didn't know how to truly feel. I was waiting for something special to hit the book and in about 40 mins till the end of the book, I thought I ain't getting it...BUT after a tiny bit more reading...THERE IT WAS! BAM! A freaking *SCENE*...I loved it! I even did a happy dance in my room, I just couldn't help it. I was anxiously waiting for it, having my fingers crossed for it and C.A. Rene delivered and didn't disappoint at all!! For the characters we get glimpses of our previous love buddies, such as: Ember, Vin, Adri, Emmett, Trevor, Trent...but we also get new ones as Carmelo, Cam or Saxon and so many more. I really can't wait to see Carmelo's story in Carmelo's Malice. These kids grew up so fast and I just can't wait how their life unfold.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Truth be said. I couldn't really remember what the first book was about, because I have read it a long while ago and also in between read so many books. I did remember, that there was kidnapping, torture, pain and rape. Now when I started reading this book it kind of started whereI thought it would, but we also got a tiny bit of recapitulation of the first book which helped tremendously. (Usually I hate it but in this one, I needed it). I can pleasantly say that this book had a lot of thoughts in it. And the first thing that I truly liked was that the main characters were held in kind of like a prison, not for a few days but actually for six weeks, which usually we get rarely. Mostly the main characters or character stay in this for like a week and then they are scarred for the rest of their lives, you know. Like it kind of feels like the authors don't really want to come up with a lot of ideas as to what can happen in "Hell", but I can pleasantly say that Lili St. Germain thought of this exceptionally well. Usually I don't think I would be too interested to read characters stuck in "Hell" for so long, but she made it interesting and painful and you could truly sympathise with the characters. There were parts in the book that I liked more than the others, but they were also parts which I didn't really like, but that depends on each and everyone of us because, you know, we are different. The storyline of this book is exceptional and it is truly worth waiting such a long time for the second book. I can honestly say that Lili St. Germain had this plot in her head for so long and played with it, so that the way she wrote it was amazing. I don't know if I mentioned this in my previous review, but I loved how this was an interpretation of Romeo and Juliet in a new scary light. At least I think it was or is. Truthfully I love this version so much more. It's more our kind of century or like probably more like my style, but either way haven't read the original book. Along the way we find out or we think we found out, who that is or why and by the end of the book I was shocked to the core. I was left speechless and I am just praying that it all goes out right, like I truly hope that this book has a happy ending, because otherwise I think I will come up to Ms./Mrs. Lily and just scream my nerves at her and demand a REWRITE!!! At the end of my review, I would like to say that this book is really darker and if you're not up to it, you should read it. It gets darker than the previous one and you have to prepare yourself for it. Other than that you have to read it! The wait was 100% worth it and I'm recommending this book to everyone who can handle the dark side! Also the ENDING??? What the actual EFF???? LIKE HOW?????

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. This series is beyond amazing! I tremendously love and adore C.A. Rene and I need every single book she ever wrote if they're like this, because c'mon! It's just beyond powerfully amazing! First I need to say that I have two new favourite songs!! One is Bodies and the other is Monster and I freaking love them! Thank you for that! This book? Uh! It's perfect! Every detail about this book is per-fect! You will feel every emotion and every page you turn you'll be devastated that this series is ending. That's also why it took me so long to finish this whole series, because I freaking loved it so much! This book gets progressively more haunting and bloody, but that's my type of tea exactly. Also you'll uncover so many things you didn't even know you needed answers to, but will make a perfect sense once you know them. Truthfully I don't know how to properly review this book because it just wouldn't do it justice. C.A. Rene definitely knows every in and out of my heart and mind. She captured me the moment I met Ember until the very end. This journey with her was spectacular. Sometimes I wish I were as strong and "untouchable" like Ember. I loved the way she loves everyone and would lay her life down for them. I loved the way she fought! Even though sometimes it wasn't fair or something went wrong, she never backed down and took it like a PRO! Ember is going to be my probably 2nd or 3rd favourite female character ever! She is a BADASS woman!!! Although this book gets a little overwhelming with new facts and problems, I quickly figured (that's to everyone in the book) the way to keep up. They were are truly supporting and helped each other so much. They cared a lot about the other and if someone messed with one of them, they rained HELL upon them together! This series showed me a lot too! How our society turns a blind eye when it's good for them. How some people need help but are unable to ask for it. How many of us judge quicker than it is necessary. But also! How we are accepting of people around us. How we can truly love if we are loved back. How we support each other no matter what. How even if our life was in danger, we would still try to save the person we care for! This was truly a rollercoaster of a huge proportion, but I wouldn't change it at all! Every single thing that happened, happened for a reason and I loved it. I can't wait to read Ivy's Venom. I want to see how the next generation goes and what will happen to our lovely people. Thank you for this book Mrs. Rene! It was everything I needed and much more! Truly thank you.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I don't know where to start with this review or how to write it. Let me probably start with saying that this book is like a re-telling of Beaty And The Beast and it this ain't one of those hot once, then I don't know what is, haha. So firstly when the story started I was super upset and every way understanding why Royal felt the way she did. Honestly, I hated the beast myself! Also wasn't helping when he said that's it's her fault he's like that, since they barely ever met. There are a few secrets as to why Royal ended up being with Xavier and why he's like this. It is beautifully written and even the revealing parts are amazing but gut wrenching. Both times it will leave you angry, mad and sad. I think this is my second book by Ashlee Rose and probably my favourite, because it had what I'm looking for. My needs were satisfied and I wouldn't trade it for anything. This book had tons of steamy scenes and I was here for it! I love every part, to be honest. (You will too and if you say you won't - you lying'!!!) The ending of the book was literally the best ever. It got me crying, laughing, smiling, angry, sad...all the feels. You'll "see" why. I got to admit that parts of Xavier were a little rougher sometimes, meaning as he was too harsh sometimes for his own good. It's not in a bad way thought. It was maybe on the scale of 1-10 a barely 6? But it was so good. I truly loved this book and the story it contained. Yes, the ending was unpredictable (which I loved), but so sad. My heart broke for Royal and I thought I won't be able to handle it. Overall you have to read this retelling because it is so so so good! I mean, look at the author, name of the book and that damn cover photo??? Who would say NO???

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Where do I start now? This is the third book in the series and so far all three of them have been amazing, although I have to say that I love mostly Ember's POV. Could be probably because I rarely read a book from male's POV so... Regardless, this story was amazing, twisted, regretful and telling. The worst thing probably? The way that what C.E. Rene is writing about could pretty much be also real somewhere in the world and that's not great. Which this is not bad for the book, it's just that I'm always comparing books to real life. In this story we get a behind look on Travis and what his life growing up looked like. If you think his light was easy-breezy, you'd be mistaken. His light was anything BUT! His story was, may I dare to say, horrendous but truly strong. In some way Ember and Travis are the same. Neither of them had a pretty childhood and both of them had to deal some way with it. What I have to admit is that I have "fast read" some parts in this book, because I just couldn't read it. It's not that it was written poorly or something, no. It was just too real for me and, let me say it because otherwise it wouldn't make sense - it was about kids. And as I have discovered that topic is a taboo for me. Parts of this book I thought I'd scream at the author for what she did to me emotionally! I truly liked this book a lot. It wasn't my 5 star read, hence the 4 stars, but still a truly awesome one. There is so much more I'd say about the book, but as I'm still processing it I'm not remembering it all. Also what I'd love to talk about would probably be a spoiler and that's a no-no for me. If you'd like to know more thought, please don't hesitate to message me.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I think this is kind of becoming my thing and I hate it - reviewing books super late AND taking me waaaay too long to read! I gotta confess two things: 1) For the first nearly half of the book I didn't really know what story I'm reading (I'll explain later) 2) After my confusion ended - this book was so good! I'll explain why I was so confused... I've read a few similar books to this book, but especially one that stood up to me (I won't write which, but if you'd like to know comment or shoot me a message). So I was kind of mixing those two books together and it took me a while to figure out which is which. Luckily after a few more chapters there was a scene I specifically remembered from this book and I jumped the ship and just sailed. Haha The story now. Amazing, well thought out and a little unpredictable at a certain point, I must admit. We have the perfect christian girl named Willa and a bad boy named Lars. Willa was "not-so-secretly" in love with Lars throughout the years of school and beyond. The whole school obviously knew and what Lars' friends wouldn't do for a good dare, right? So now we had a dare that our bad boy Lars had to "make out" with Willa...unfortunately the dice rolls and the story goes on, BUT is it the way everyone sees it or is it something else? We have to figure that out. To be honest I don't know whether I love or hate their interaction. On one side I was all in for them, after-all a bad boy and a good girl together? We all want that, right? But on the other side after what happened, I don't know if I'd want to be with a guy like him. Everything can change so... The plot line of the book was maybe, probably better than the characters, haha. It was interesting, keeping me on my toes and unpredictable. I loved it! I was so on edge that I couldn't read the pages fast enough! I was heart-broken and sad at times. Happy at other times. This book was really so good! I would definitely recommend this one after the first book. It is a need and also you'd need to know how everyone else's story ends! Thank you for letting me review this and I hope you liked my review. I'd love to talk to anyone about this book, so let me know if you are interested.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I got to specify one thing thought. The 5 star mark I usually give to books that have left me speechless ,but also gave me a sense of danger and love and just a twisted story. This book kind of had it, but because it was so different, I truly had to give it those stars! Okay, so...I take back my previous small review I had at about 40% of the book! For those who didn't read it: "So currently the book so so so good!! This is also the first time ever I'm wishing for the woman to die at the end of the book. I don't know why, maybe because of what happened and is happening to her? I can't wait to see how it ends, if the ending would be like I want it to or different." When I went into this book and saw how "long" it was I thought it'd get dragged and I would be bored with it, because recently the longer the book I read the more boring it was. BUT...BUT...BUT!!! This book was phenomenal! Only once before have I read a book similar to this one in theme, and I loved it! To be completely honest I didn't expect it, which is amazing because it rarely happens! The plot of the book was very well thought out! Like from the beginning until the end, you didn't know what was gonna happen or how the book will end! I loved it! Killian and Julianna are an amazingly hateful characters, haha. They are both intriguing and fascinating at the same time. They are the worst and the best for each other...you'll get what I mean by the end. *smirk* Truthfully I got their situation understood by the end of the book. It wasn't hard to understand, but since we got to know a lot of things and I also got super invested into the story, I needed time to process it just like they did. I felt heartbreak when they felt it. I felt love when they felt it. I felt fear and hate when they felt it, but I also felt admiration and a strong will. This book was truly different from a lot of books I read. In a good way 100%! I can't wait to read another books by Lylah James, because this one was a devastation in the best way possible! Thank you

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I'm rating this book with 3 stars. For me this means the book was really good, but it didn't have all the aspects I'm looking for. Also since this is a short story, it's I think a great rating. As you could probably tell, I'm way too late for this "Christmas" short book. Luckily, we still have some snow here left. The story was definitely so much different to any Christmas stories I've read. This book had darker theme. Since it was different and new to me, it was an easy read. Definitely worth it though. There was this one point at the end of the book that totally got me crying! I didn't expect it at all! That's a good and a bad thing, haha. I think I can definitely see myself reading a full book by C.E. Lashua, as if this is the glimpse that I got...it was really awesome.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Beware, this gets darker than the last book. If you are in, as I was, then buckle up and take the west ride! This books truly is darker and better than the first one. Yes, it took me longer to read, but it was only because I was super hyped about it and then I didn't want to ruin the hype, so I slowed down. I slowed down to the point when I couldn't read, but then I picked it back up and boom! I'm finished! So this book is 100% worth the read! C.A. Rene truly knows how to keep the storyline going and interesting. I was worried that the hype I felt won't be give in this book, but the truth is I got so much more. Ember is truly dark, not just by the type of clothing she wears, but her soul is dark. Somewhere along there I can sympathise with her, but no blood for me. I love the way she has confidence and strength + a huge bonus is = she knows how to protect herself & her family...she doesn't need anyone doing it for her. Yes, Ember is our dark spirit. This book points out how exactly our lives could be if we haven't got lucky to live a better life. Honestly? There's a lot about this book that I loved. Yes, for me it was mostly the darkness and the steamy scenes, you know. But after all I loved seeing a "different" side of the life. We don't always choose where we are born or to whom, but we can always come out as a fighter and stronger! I've got much more to add here, but I won't. It wouldn't truly be related to the book's storyline, more to the feelings and depth of it. One thing is for damn sure! This second book is worth the read! I can't wait torrid the 3rd, which I think is Travis's book.

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. This book gets like 50 out of 10 stars!! It's freaking amazing!!! What the hell just happened? I have finished the book and the ending??? Like what the hell??? This is my very first book by the author and I can tell you she scored! This book is everything I need! I loved the main character Ember. She's strong, independent, resilient, loving, caring and an MMA fighter!!! Omg...I'm so in love! I love how fast-paced, but also not exactly completely fast-paced this story is. At one point I thought that the storyline is going too quick, but then I thought that maybe I just read slow books. This was perfect! I got everything I wanted and even more! Last book I loved this much was Pretty Little Savage, because it has this darkness and heroine (the main girl) is a fighter and fights. These two books are really similar and just beyond perfect! In this book the main girl (Ember) has been living without her father, never knowing who he was. Only her mother and she, until one day there's a fire in their home and her mother dies, nearly taking Em along with her. Our girl is moved away and "starting" (very freely used word) new life and finding new friends. MMA fights took at least away the tiny bit of darkness that her mom knew how to take. Now she needs to figure out another way to get rid of off it. This story is so much more than just what I'm writing about! It's dark, it's steamy, it's vengeful, it's painful, it's bloody, dangerous and I loved every little freaking second of it! I loved how the relationship between the two main characters started and took off. It wasn't rushed (even though it felt like it at some points), but the wait they fit and knew a lot about each others's darkness and pain...I knew why they ended up together right there. Honestly, I'm glad that our girl had someone by her side. I loved her best friend and the way they were calling each other? Hilarious!!! Haha (insert cry-laughing emoji). There is so much to discuss, but just know you HAVE TO read this book!!!

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Another 5 ⭐️ read on my part! Now...another amazing series come to an end. Sebastian and Yelena's story is the last book of Brutal Birthright series and I was dragging to end it. It took me 6 days to finish. When I got the chance to read and review the first book Brutal Prince I was so excited and I couldn't wait. Back then I didn't know that it's a new series and that I'd get a ton more of people I'll end up loving. I wouldn't trade it though, because each person taught me something valuable. Now Seb's story was something I truly couldn't wait to sink my teeth into. I knew from the second I finished the first book that I needed to know what will happen to him, if he's happy, sad or just going through fazes in his life. When I started reading this book and I found out what the story is going to be about (not meaning Seb and Yelena, but more behind it) I was thinking of putting the book down. I just couldn't think of one thing why Sophie (the Author) would do such a thing to our lovely Sebastian. In the end I understood and am beyond grateful that I continued and finished. The story of this book was beautiful, enigmatic in a good way, charging with energy, but also left you desperate, needy and brutally mad. Oh, and also haunting! I was glad to see so many characters return back and see how they are doing with their life. I loved Aida and Cal, Mikolaj and Nessa, Nero and Camille and Dante and Simone...yes I loved everyone, haha. Most special to me was Nero and Camille's story as well as Raylan and Riona's story and now this story adds to it! I don't know why, but these stories were the most meaningful to me. Even if the whole series started with Aida and Callum. I know I'm babbling about everything, but it's the last book and I need to get everything out! Haha... Now to the story: There was a part when I was conflicted inside...not knowing wether to agree with the way Yelena did things or disagree. Sometimes I know I wished Seb knew more, sometimes I wish less. As the story progressed and we got more into the family business as well as into their relationship, I was so sure they were made for each other! They were perfect. There are, I think, two or three parts in this book hat I also-freaking-lutely loved, but I won't tell which because it'd be considered spoiler and I don't do that, unless I point it out. However, the ending of this book was exactly, or hold on! maybe not exactly what I imagined. It was so much more! We get to have more of everyone...maybe a little differently, but I'll take anything! Sophie Lark truly knows how to get and hold your attention until not you, but SHE'S ready to give it back! She also knows how to end a series with a *thump* and *boom*. Also how to make you super excited and anxious for the next thing she has coming! BEWARE this series is as a dr*g! You won't stop no matter what! BUT go ahead and dip your toes in, because well...you won't regret it! Thank you Sophie for writing this one! It truly is special and has a very meaningful place in my heart! Love you!

I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I'm giving this book 4 stars. My preference to books have shifted into "the darker, the better" and this book is not dark, which is FINE! it's just my preference. Either way, I loved this book as much as I loved the previous two! Okay, so...our Monroe doesn't exactly cook, but she does have a fridge full of food, haha. (reference to my review of Peacekeeper). This book is an enemies-to-lovers + office romance type of book and I'm here for it! I love enemies-to-lovers and recently I'm starting to like office romance more too, in this care the author did an amazing job or putting this too together. I couldn't wait to read Jack's story as he's a player. I knew there had to be more about him and what we couldn't see previously and you can bet your ass there is! I loved Monroe! So far Laura (author) knows how to create a very likeable, strong, independent woman that you'll just fall in love with! We started with Harley, then Laney and now Monroe. All three of them are special and so worth it! She's had a tough life. Her mother died while giving birth and because of that she never allowed herself to be or feel happy! On top of this, she hates Jack and he just doesn't understand how she can hate him. Everyone loves him! Our Monroe ended up working for Montgomery Media where Jack Montgomery along with his two older brothers (but mostly Jack) are her bosses. She's a brilliant reporter and works very hard to achieve her dreams. Also the way this story ends and along the previous book characters with it, will make it worth all the time! I'm seriously so happy I got the chance to read this series, because it was top notch! As I said maybe too much, you should read this book! Enemies + Office romance? I mean what else do you need??? Hurry up! And while you're at it, read the previous two! They are AH-MAZING!!

This book holds so many emotions! Let me tell you why I gave 4 stars and not 5. So, I really loved the book! I loved it so much, it was unique and amazing. This one was emotional and although emotions are great, the 5 star reads for me have more of a less emotion kind of style? I love books that are super dark to the brink of death...I'm weird, I know. Now however, this book would deserve a 5 star from anyone who's not as messed up as I am, haha. The story is awesome. The books sucks you in and won't let you leave, not until you are at the end and sobbing! I thought this was gonna be another rival book between two "gangs" (very loosely that word), but it wasn't. It was so much more. We got Wes and Serena. Wes is a "member" of Satan's Outlaws who's helping his cousin Rip figure out what is happening and how to put a stop to a certain thing. Serena is a florist who's trying to get on with her life after her mom and brother die in a bad car crash. These two words collide and they have to navigate through their love and battlefield. It won't be as easy as it looks. It never is, but we will see if they'll get out of it stronger or weaker. Now to the emotional part...I was a crying wreck! This book left me crying 4 times in a matter of 2-3 chapters! Or maybe even pages! L.G. Campbell definitely knows how to get your emotions to the surface, even if you don't want to! This was my second book by the author that got me crying! First one was Tiers of Joy and I cried there too, just a little less. I loved this book! I think it has become one of my emotional books that I won't ever forget! I would definitely recommend this book! After you are done though, come and tell me how you feel. I'd love to talk with anyone about it.

I gave this book 5 ⭐️ I still don't get how I could nearly hate the first book?! This is the 3rd book in the series and I thought it's the last one as well, but thank God, it's not! We have at least one more book coming. I can't wait to read it, but at the same time I don't want to. I'm not ready for the series to end! As our story continues this one gets better and better! We are still against the council here, but we have to be careful. Our Luna is getting tired,, but determined to help anyone she and her "harem" can! I gotta say that I feel like maybe I love this one the most, but that probably wouldn't be true, because the second book was amazing as well! In this book we get more of behind the scenes of how the pack, Alphas, Luna and everyone around them have to work together to be able to accomplish something in their world. We also get more insights into Luna's relationship with her mates, which I love. Wee get more love and something that could help with their love. *wink, wink* I love Lottie! I love how she is the most dominant, but she's also understanding. When she hates something, she WILL let you know! If you disrespect her, she'll make you submit. If you're friendly, she shows you love. We get an unknown threat that continues to show up, no matter how hard the Alphas try to protect Lottie. They don't give up. I love Katie and Lexie's or Kitty and Rex's relationship with Lottie and everyone else. It's funny to watch! Sometimes they have to tone it down a bit, but otherwise I laughed a lot! When I finished the book yesterday, I couldn't believe the ending we got! I could't stop thinking how it could continue. I have maybe like 3-4 theories of how the forth book could start, but either way I can't wait to see what Letty has in mind! To be honest, I'm really hoping that the forth book won't be the last one! There is still so much we need to accomplish and understand. I need more than just 1 or 2 more books! I need at least 3-4, haha.
