BOOK REVIEW- It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover

It Ends with UsIt Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It Ends with Us is truly Colleen Hoover‘s best book to date! Powerful and captivating. Do yourself a favor and start reading it immediately. My only complaint is that the last scene seems rushed. I feel that Colleen could have explored that development/relationship further before ending the book.

BONUS- The stethoscope scene is out of this world sexy. Holy guacamole… I NEED to find myself a sexy doctor pronto!

BOOK REVIEW- Reaper’s Property by Joanna Wylde

Reaper's Property (Reapers MC, #1)Reaper’s Property by Joanna Wylde
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wowzers. Probably not the best intro for such a gritty biker novel but it’s my first reaction. Bang bang- welcome to the world of motorcycle gangs…correction motorcycle club. 😉

Horse is a member of the Reapers Motorcycle Club- a world that’s completely foreign to Marie. Marie’s recently escaped an abusive marriage and is living in a dilapidated mobile home with her loser brother. Her brother- in addition to being a druggie also happens to have quite the knack for computer hacking. The motorcycle game enters Marie’s life when her brother starts working for the gang. Her brother being the loser that he is, starts skimming Reaper money for himself Horse and his brothers step in to “work things out”.

Be warned – this isn’t a fairytale romance! There’s violence, drug use, club whores and murder…just to name a few things. All things considered I really enjoyed this book. Admittedly I’m not too familiar with the inner workings of a motorcycle club but based on the author’s forward it sounds like she’s done a fair bit of research that really enhanced my reading experience.

BOOK REVIEW- Reaper’s Fall by Joanna Wylde

Reaper's Fall (Reapers MC, #5)Reaper’s Fall by Joanna Wylde
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Definitely love me some Reapers MC!

Book 5 of the Reapers MC series featured man whore-extraordinaire Painter and sweetie-pie Melanie. After reading some negative reviews I wasn’t as excited to dive into their story as previous installments. Nevertheless, as a true book hero I forged on despite my hesitation. What did I find?

A whole lot of angst (love me some angsty romance novels!) and some pretty steamy scenes. While this book had less “shoot em up” violent scenes compared to it’s predecessors it still captivated my interest and held the same gritty biker drama that I was in the mood for.

Solid 4 out of 5 from me!

BOOK REVIEW- Crow’s Row by Julie Hockley

Crow's Row (Crow's Row, #1)Crow’s Row by Julie Hockley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Can you believe I’ve neglected this fantastic book for months? The poor little darling has sat on my “Want to Read” list since February 5th!!! Finally on November 27th I finally dove in head-first and within 2 days devoured every last sentence!

FAIR WARNING-
I’m going to highly recommend that you read this book but you should know going into the series that it’s INCOMPLETE! That’s right. The second installment came out back in 2014 and the 3rd book is still listed as “Untitled”. You’ve been warned.

Cameron is the top, top boss of THE underground crime ring in the US with influence in other countries. He’s cunning and every decision he makes is calculated and controlled. Cameron is described as handsome with an edge. Oh, and he’s also filthy rich from the dirty money he generates through is various illegal ventures. Emily Sheppherd…not sure how to describe her. According to the character herself she has shockingly bright red hair (natural), skinny to the point of being unattractive and lacking curves. She’s got ruddy skin that’s pale and speckled with freckles. Born into wealth she’s abandoned that life and lives in dingy group housing for college students while attending school on a merit-based scholarship. Throughout the book other characters describe Emily as strikingly gorgeous and eye-catching. Emily is a self-imposed loner and a virgin who abandons relationships the moment things get serious.

Without Cameron and the other supporting characters this book would have been a bust for me. Emily’s personality did not resonate with me and she retreats within herself whenever things get difficult.

The plot explores both the grotesque opulence of the wealthy and the desolate circumstances of the poor. Rivety tale of two individuals born into opposite worlds who find solice in each other.

Highly recommend. Dive in and enjoy this book!
