Double the Thrills: A Two-Book Special in My Book Recommendation of the Week!

Hey there, fellow book revelers!🤩 We are back, and we welcome you to come along on this thrilling journey as we unveil the newest edition of our “Book Recommendation of the Week.” If you’re ready to dive into a world where passion, danger, and love intertwine, let the journey begin!♥♥♥ But wait, there is a twist this week as we recommend two books rather than one! OH JOY!😁😁😁 So the book recommendations of the week are…✨✨✨✨ The Predator and The Reaper (Dark verse series) By RuNyx Blurb In the dark underbelly of the mob, Tristan Caine has been an anomaly. As the only non-blooded member in the high circle of the Tenebrae Outfit, he is an enigma to all – his skills unparalleled, his morality questionable, and his motives unknown. He is lethal and he knows it. As does Morana Vitalio, the genius extraordinaire daughter of the rival family. What Caine does with weapons, Morana does with computers. When a twenty-year-old mystery resurfaces, Morana infiltrates Caine’s house, intent on killing him, unaware of a tie that binds them together. Hate, heat, and history clash together with unexpected sparks. But something bigger, something worse is happening in their world. And despite their animosity, only they can fight it down. Blurb What happens when the untamable wind and the endless sea collide in the dark of the night?Tristan ‘The Predator’ Caine had been unprepared for Morana Vitalio. After spending his entire life with a vow he broke on a rainy night, he finds himself torn in a battle between his painful past and an uncertain future. The only thing he knows? Her life still belongs to him.For Morana, the line between enemies and allies has blurred. Everything she once held dear to her has disintegrated and the unknown gapes at her, leaving her with both her freedom and life on the line in enemy territory. The only thing she knows? His life has always belonged to her.With twenty years of history tying them to each other, Tristan and Morana begin their hunt for the truth together. And they realize that the mystery of the missing girls is just the tip of the iceberg.Skeletons are uncovered. Dominoes begin to fall.A storm is born. Oh, my goodness! I’m obsessed with this series! What a great series by RuNyx! The Predator and The Reaper are book 1 and 2 in the Dark Verse series. The plot and the characters—oh, everything was just so perfect. Tristan and Morana are my babies; they are definitely one of my favorite couples. There were so many instances where I couldn’t predict the characters’ next moves, and that’s something I absolutely loved, and you will as well. There wasn’t much sparkle in the romance department in The Predator, but that’s part of the story, so no complaints there because romance was romancing in The Reaper. Tristan’s character was very complex. Oh, let me spill the tea on this guy! Life had thrown everything but the kitchen sink at him. Reading about his past will take you on a rollercoaster of emotions and will have you bawling your eyes out. He found his match in Morana. She’s not just any girl; she’s the one who brought him back to life after he’d been in zombie mode for more than two decades. Morana’s character was so mature, and you will find it refreshing. She definitely doesn’t mess around and is a woman on a mission. She’s the whole package—smart, passionate, strong, fierce, and as independent as they come. All she ever wanted was freedom, love, and a couple of good pals. And guess what, She got exactly that. And picture this: their chemistry is off the charts, like fireworks in the night sky 🔥 These two are so on fire, you could practically roast marshmallows off their heat. The way they sizzle together is just, whoa, and it’s making everyone else look like they need to turn up the thermostat or something! Caution These books have trigger warnings, and if you do not like dark romance themes, I would suggest not reading these books.

A Blogger’s View: My Obsession with Rina Kent’s Deviant King!

Hey, fellow book revelers! 📚Let me dish on something real with you—I’ve been diving into bully romances for a hot minute now, and let’s be real, not many have managed to steal my heart. Most of them just end up feeling like a bad rerun, with the hero acting like a jerk and the heroine pretending to be tough when she’s a doormat. Ugh, so not my vibe. But then, oh boy, along came “Deviant King” by Rina Kent, and I was like, “Hold up, this is the dark hero goodness I’ve been waiting for!” Yep, sign me up!😁 Caution: Deviant King is a dark romance book by Rina Kent that contains dubious moments and follows a dark theme with trigger warnings, which could upset some readers. If you do not like dark romance themes, I suggest not reading this book. Deviant King by Rina Kent Buy here Buy here (UK) Blurb The villain isn’t supposed to be king. I have a simple plan. Finish Royal Elite School and get into my dream university. One glance from the school’s king blows my plan up in smoke. One glance and he suffocates my air. One glance and he issues his death sentence. His first words spiral my life into irreparable chaos. “I will destroy you.” Everything about Aiden King is black. Black mind. Black heart. Black soul. I should’ve remained quiet and endured the time I have left. I didn’t. I made the irrevocable mistake of provoking the king on his throne. The devil in his hell. And now, I’ll pay the price. Being hated by Aiden King is dangerous. But being wanted by him is lethal. My Rating: Overall: 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plot: 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hero: 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heroine: 4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Romance: 4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ First, let’s take a moment to appreciate the sheer brilliance of Rina Kent’s storytelling. I ABSOLUTELY love Rina’s books. So, “Deviant King“ was my first foray into Rina’s world. Let me tell you, it shot straight to the top of my favorites list (and the whole trilogy? Don’t even get me started—it’s basically my literary soulmate). Deviant King isn’t just your run-of-the-mill bully romance. From the get-go, I was hooked, line and sinker. Deviant King throws you headfirst into the Royal Elite School (RES), where power plays and hidden secrets rule the roost. Elsa Quinn, our fearless heroine labelled “Frozen” for her icy cool demeanor, gets caught up in a wild ride when Aiden King, the brooding bad boy, decides he’s gonna “destroy” her. Talk about drama! This book is like the ultimate trifecta of tension, angst, and darkness, and I am so here for it.😀 Let’s talk about the MMC and FMC. Aiden King? Oh boy, where do I even start? He’s the bad boy you love to hate, with a past as murky as the deep end of the ocean. But trust me, you’ll find yourself drawn to him like a moth to a flame. And can we talk about Elsa Quinn? She’s not just another damsel in distress. The girl’s got layers! Her journey through conflicts, a forgotten past, and a pesky heart condition add depth to her character, making her a badass leading lady. Aiden King and Elsa Quinn as a couple? They are indeed a power couple!🌟✨🎇 Rina’s writing? Chef’s kiss. It’s like a literary seduction. Rina sprinkles magic dust on every page, drawing you deeper into the story with every word. And don’t even get me started on the world-building—it’s like you’re right there in the halls of Royal Elite School, soaking up every juicy detail.  Rina deserves all the snaps for this masterpiece. The storytelling, the characters, and that cliffhanger ending – it’s the dark romance dreams are made of! 🌌 For me, “Deviant King” isn’t just a book—it’s an experience. So, this series is a must-read if you’re into brooding anti-heroes and steamy romances and their swoon-worthy obsessions. I’m waving my bookish wand and wholeheartedly recommend it for a thrilling and seductive literary escape. So, do yourself a favor and dive headfirst into this series. Trust me, you won’t regret it! 🖤✨ 📖 About the author: Rina Kent is a USA Today, international, and #1 Amazon bestselling author of everything enemies to lovers romance.She’s known to write unapologetic anti-heroes and villains because she often fell in love with men no one roots for.

Together, they have to find a way to end the war in a world governed by draconian laws. “Draconian” by the amazing Noelle N is another fanfic gem I love. This fanfic has more unexpected pairings, plot twists, and emotions than a box of Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans!

After the Hogwarts battle craziness, Hermione goes MIA, and guess who’s on a solo mission to rescue her memory-less self? The one and only Draco Malfoy!

Oh, the feels, peeps, because “Draconian” ain’t just about battles and war. It’s a rollercoaster of friendship (major squad goals with Blaise, Pansy, Theo, Draco, and the newest member, Hermione), redemption, hardships, and those emotional journeys that’ll make your heart do the cha-cha. Listen up! “Draconian” is a five-star wonder that’s basically in a league of its own. Jump into Draco’s mind, savor those quirky friendships, and brace yourself for a journey that’s gonna yank at your heartstrings. Accio tissues! 📚✨ The Fallout by Everythursday Blurb When does redemption begin? She likes to believe it is at the top of a tower, when a boy lowers his wand, his power, his control, his future in the ranks he had been promised and walks away to never be the same again. The question for Draco Malfoy, of course, was when it ended. OMG, guys, hold onto your broomsticks because “The Fallout” by everythursday is legit a rollercoaster ride through the wizarding world, and I am shaking! 🧙‍♂️✨ Holy hippogriffs, this slow-burn romance is so slow it’s like waiting for a Snail Mail curse to arrive, but guess what? I’m here for it, and I ain’t even mad. At first, I asked, “What in Merlin’s beard is happening?” But then it takes you on this wild frustration spree. Let me tell you, the payoff is as satisfying as snagging the last Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Bean – if you’re still breathing by the end, that is. Let’s talk character growth, my friends. It’s off the charts. The slow burn? Slower than a Thestral ride in slow motion. I’ve practically got this story on repeat, and it still twists my heart like a kneazle in a knot. It’s not just a romance; it’s like a freaking philosophical masterpiece. These characters are all grown up, dealing with angst, war-imposed PTSD (well, it’s still

But now, this chief of police is recovering from being shot and his Southern charm has been overshadowed by panic attacks and nightmares. He feels like a broody shell of the man he once was. Nash isn’t about to let anyone in his life know he’s struggling. But his new next-door neighbor, smart and sexy Lina, sees his shadows. As a rule, she’s not a fan of physical contact unless she initiates it, but for some reason Nash’s touch is different. He feels it too. The physical connection between them is incendiary, grounding him and making her wonder if exploring it is worth the risk. Too bad Lina’s got secrets of her own, and if Nash finds out the real reason she’s in town, he’ll never forgive her. Besides, she doesn’t do relationships. Ever. A hot, short-term fling with a local cop? Absolutely. Sign her up. A relationship with a man who expects her to plant roots? No freaking way. Once she gets what she’s after, she has no intention of sticking around. But Knockemout has a way of getting under people’s skin. And once Nash decides to make Lina his, he’s not about to be dissuaded…even if it means facing the danger that nearly killed him.

She’s messy, emotional, and way too tempting.But when the team’s General Manager vocalizes his blatant disapproval of my promotion to Captain, referring to me as an unapproachable lone wolf with no work-life balance, I can’t think of a better way to convince him otherwise than pretending to date my outgoing roommate.The only problem? Faking it feels far too natural.Having a fake girlfriend wasn’t supposed to be messy but having Indy under my roof and in my bed is complicated, especially when she wants all the romantic parts of life that I could never give her.INDYI never imagined I’d be living with my best friend’s brother, NBA superstar Ryan Shay. Even more unbelievable? He needs me to act as his loving girlfriend who’s suddenly changed him into a friendly and approachable guy. Because, well…he’s not. He’s controlling of his space and untrusting of others.Our arrangement isn’t one-sided, though. I’m in a wedding coming up, one where every one of my childhood friends, including my ex-boyfriend, will be in attendance, and there’s no better date than my ex’s celebrity hero. Blurred lines make it almost impossible to separate real from fake. Falling for my roommate was never part of the deal, especially when Ryan is quick to remind me that he doesn’t believe in love.I’m a romantic and can’t help fantasizing that he’ll change, but soon enough, I find myself questioning if sharing a roof with my best friend’s brother was the right move after all. This is Book 2 of Windy City Series, which was published on February 7, 2023. The Devine Doughnut Shop by Carolyn Brown Buy here Buy here (UK) Blurb Three women are torn between traditions of the past and unexpected new beginnings in a warmhearted novel by Carolyn Brown about family, romance, and the best pastries in Texas.
