i want you to want me: Adam by Mary Ann Marlowe (Most Wanted #1)

It has all the right elements that make up a great rock star romance, but this one fell flat for me. I like the chemistry between them and the setup, so the first third of the book, but the rest... didn't do much for me.  She is a biochemist, working for a company that is developing an experimental perfume. She has a stable-ish life but is not happy. Her brother on the other hand is running after his dream. She is with him one night, as he has a performance, and starts talking to a guy. He doesn't seem like much, but there is something very attractive about him.  They spend the night together. The next morning, when she talks to her girlfriend, she realizes who he is.  I had high hopes for the MCs, but I had trouble connecting with the FMC, she comes across as very judge-y and she looks down on others. Her actions made me dislike her very much.   Adam on the other hand I liked from the start. He seems to be struggling with all the things that come from a life in...

Meat Eaters by Mededith McClaren

A normal hardworking girl wakes up one day to find that she doesn't have a heartbeat anymore. She also doesn't remember dying, even though that sounds like something that would stay in one's memory. :) She has a new craving for meat that scares her. All she wants is to be hidden from the world, but slowly she is dragged into a world that is unlike ours. The ghouls, werewolves, and vampires, live in the same world, just underneath the surface. She makes friends, gets tangled in all sorts of stuff, and discovers more about this new world and herself each time. The artwork is beautiful, and I was immediately hooked by the art. The storyline was interesting, but I was a bit lost at times, not knowing what was going on. Still, I can't wait to read another one, there is just something about this story, that pulls you in. rating ❤❤❤❤❤ cover ❤❤❤❤❤ GoodReads || Amazon happy reading, anie

However, he has a huge problem with ED. He is so embarrassed that he doesn't even go on dates anymore. That all changes one night when a young Hiwatari spends the evening with him. Mr. Takanashi revealed more about himself, that he wants to and Hiwatari somehow fixes his problem. They slowly become closer and they slooowly start to open up. An office romance, with a slow burn, lots of humor, and a pretty guys. Highly recommend it rating ❤❤❤❤❤ cover ❤❤❤❤❤ GoodReads || Amazon happy reading, anie

Unholy Obsession by Stasia Black

After reading the first page, I was hooked.  I'm a monster, but as so often happens with monsters, I've got everyone snowed into thinking I'm a good man from the outside.  The priest's collar around my neck helps. No one knows about the shattered glass and spilled blood. No one knows about the floggers and leather and the countless women I've put on their knees and ordered to call me Lord- It's a very sexy story, with two deeply flawed characters who somehow make each other better.   Moira is a sex addict and her life is spinning out of control. Bane took 180 from how he grew up and became a priest. His life is about to fall apart. He is still plagued by his father's upbringing and even though he did about everything to not turn out like him, he is plagued by it nonetheless. He is massively torn between what he knows is right and what he desires. And the thing he desires the most is Moira. But that lifestyle he so craves doesn't mesh well, with being a p...

A Gentleman's Offer by Emma Orchard

The story has all the elements of a great book—a Regency-era romance about an arranged marriage with a twin twist—but I couldn't get into it. Although the premise is quite interesting, it fell flat for me. Also, the writing style is not a good fit for me.      rating ❤❤ cover ❤❤ Goodreads  ||  Amazon happy reading, anie
