Death is cruel. It’s unforgiving and brutal. It robbed me of the life I wanted to live and stole what little hope I had for the future. I was supposed to be something great. I was supposed to have it all … But a single bullet changed everything. I always thought I'd go down fighting, but instead, I faded away while watching the overwhelming guilt tear through Carver faster than his bullet tore through me. Like I said—death is cruel. King. Cruz. Grayson. Carver. How am I supposed to leave this world knowing what mess I’ll be leaving behind? There’s a war brewing, and this time, it’s personal. I can’t die. Not yet. Luckily, a bitch like me doesn’t stay down for long. Boys of Winter is a Dark, Enemies to Lovers, Reverse Harem Romance. It contains explicit sexual content, graphic violence, and coarse language.

AN ASTONISHING SERIES
I'm utterly in love with this series! Winter is by far a favourite character of mine and my fondness for her grows by the book. The drama plot intensified in Deviant and I could not put the book down.

The last two chapters had me in complete and utter shock. Sheridan Anne has gained a lifetime fan with this series. Impatiently waiting for the next book!

What better way to spend a Sunday by ignoring adulting and jumping into this series which I'm completely addicted to!!

This picked up where the previous book stopped off where a wayward bullet had hit an unintentional mark placing shame on Carvers head.

Holy Shit! I haven't read or enjoyed reading as much as I have been with being absorbed, addicted with this series!! I stayed up for as long as my eyes would stay open and finished this at 2 fucking am!! That is never heard of, I love my sleep, but apparently I love this series more.

So with this one the authors definitely switched it up a notch or two, there's still people trying to take her out, bombs and twists still come at you out of nowhere, Carver and the push and pull is switched up, and that motherfucking ending did me in. I was on the verge of throwing my ipad but needed to at least carry on reading into the next book to see what the fuck was going on...

That ending had my heart racing, I didn't know weither to hate the guys or what to do. I never want this series to end, so far it's been one of my favourites!!

I don’t know how to function right now.
.
I may have possibly, for the first time ever, just maybe died from that cliffhanger. I’m speechless. Shooketh!
.
This is hands down the best series Sheridan has written. I love all her books but this one is definitely the one for me. So much action, the twists blow me away, the angst and sexual tension is unbelievable, the plot development and character development is out of this world, and so much more. This is one hell of a ride. Believe me when I say you are not ready for this instalment to this series! I can only imagine how book 4 is going to go, and knowing Sheridan, we are likely going to end up wrecked! And you know, with how this book ended, that that is a very strong possibility.
.
Ah-may-zing!!! Omg. I feel a whirlwind of emotions right now. I’m not gonna lie, winter annoyed me in the beginning, like always. I get that she’s a strong independent woman, but when she can see how negative her stubbornness effects the guys, she herself has claimed she feels strongly for, how has she still not grown enough to think about what her actions and decisions are doing? She comes across very selfish, and again I get the need she has for control and her right for revenge etc, but she seemed to not want to budge or make compromises at all. Her growth is very minimal in some ways and when I think she starts showing promise it’s like she reverts at the beginning of every book. So in that sense she annoyed me but I was glad it didn’t last long and I was able to enjoy the book.
.
The guys, awesome as always! I’m loving the journey with carver. It’s truly difficult to pick a favourite out of the guys so lucky for us it’s an RH. My heart, is no longer located where it should. That ending literally had it dropping out of my butt. How? Why? Amazing twists this round and the plot I’d riveting I’m enjoying the ride of this series and it’s truly unforgettable. I can’t wait to see how Sheridan destroys us with book 4.

WTF did I just read?!!!!!

Spoilerishhhhhh!!!!!

Sheridan, girl!!! Come on now! We are going into book 4 and I don’t see an end in site. That ending tore me
to shreds. I don’t see how Winter can come back from that. I mean how can you spin that? really! What a cluster fuck. Look Winter has been super dependent on these guys for three whole books. Yeah she’s a bad ass bitch, but mostly she’s rather nieve and depends on the guys way too much. After that ending I NEED for Winter to come back guns blazing! Maybe a little time jump too- Where she was training hard so that she can take Dynasty back and shit on everyone, yes even the guys! There’s no way you can let Winter forgive them so easily no matter what. I just don’t see it. Not to mention all the lies and secrets they’ve kept from her only to have her forgive them way too easily. I loved this book so much- but there was some things I was majorly pissed about! Mainly that god awful ending! Jeez, that was some bullshit. How the hell does she come back from that?! There’s literally no one to help her come back from that! Please, Sheridan help us see reason!!! Two, her ability to brush off the lies and secrets the guys keep from her is ridiculous! she’s suppose to be the leader of dynasty and I found Winter’s backbone lacking in this book. I want Winter coming back swinging! There is absolutely no way I can see what reasoning theses men would have for what they just did to her. I mean at this point give her a new harem because I don’t think I can ever truly forgive that shit. Winter has to come back a bad ass bitch- after some time away getting her shit together. I don’t know how you’re going to spin it but something has to give and also I would LOVE to see this final book in a multi POV. These men have way too strong a presence to not see things from their POV. How amazing would that be! Maybe then if we saw things from their POV we can understand their actions better because right now they can eat a dick!!!

Ember just smiles and my blood runs cold. “At first maybe,” she tells me, “but your endless whining and tough girl act quickly got boring.

I could not have said it better.

I thought I could only hate Bella Swan this much...but nope. Winter is the most annoying, stupid, irrational, narcissistic, and weak heroine of any book I've read. She swears she's a hardcore badass, but she's a whimpering idiot each and everytime she gets caught. She always run in to danger and ask why didn't someone stop her?! Grrrrrrrrrrr This is a good story, but crap I curse her out every other page.

Well- that was unexpected. This series gets more dramatic and more complicated with every page. This books in particular is just plot and twist dense- normally a good thing and here hugely entertaining, but there is just a lot going on and at times I think this third book relied more on that soap operating drama more than some of its central heart, the relationships and character growth- of course Sheridan Anne leaves us with a shocking and radically devastating cliffhanger than hints at the finale recentering on the aspect of Sheridan’s writing and this story that I found the most interesting - the connections. The penultimate books in a series are normally a challenge for me just because it’s hard to balance revealing enough to progress the plot while leaving enough content for the finale. Most of this story felt like digging deeper vs forward momentum- but oh did that finale reshape the whole game. What?!!!

Our central heroine continues to confound me- at moments I adore her, others I’m perplexed or frustrated. But, she’s a young adult put in a particularly challenging situation while weighed down by heaps of baggage- I get it. I just hope to see her mature and settle into herself in the finale- lord knows she has a lot to face and figure out!

Curious how it will end!

Okay... firstly I am not alright. Like WTF did I just read ? I’m going to need a lot of therapy after that ending.

Book Three picks up right where Book Two left of with THAT ending. And if you think that was bad then be prepared because the ending of Deviant makes that look like a tea party.

This book is full of more secrets and countless betrayals. Our poor girl Winter cannot catch a break and the enemies just keep on coming. There are so many twists and turns, and I did not see most of it coming. There were points in this book where I was too scared to turn the page because I just didn’t think anything else could happen and then “bam” - another plot twist.

I adore King, Cruz and Grayson - but I am totally here for Carver and I saw the heavens in this book.... like they opened and I heard the gods singing and everything.

This book will consume you. Be prepared to do nothing but inhale this book because once you start you won’t be able to stop.

I love seeing the many depths of Winter. She’s suck a kick ass heroine but at the same time she is likeable and vulnerable and the hits just keep on coming.

Now let’s talk about that ending... I’m telling you now you are going to throw something. It’s unavoidable. It’s been a few hours and I’m still in shock by that cliffhanger. @sheridan.anne.author you have one book to fix this. August cannot come quick enough.

It’s hard to read this series and believe this is SA’s first reverse harem series. She has totally nailed it. You really feel the struggles of the boys and Winter as they work through their group and individual relationships.

Have you ever gotten caught in a sink hole?

I’ll explain my question momentarily, first I’d like to address Sheridan Anne.

$@&-!:$:92@/!:);&@//&.):&/@-&:!,!@@-&!

Ok, now that I got that off my chest let’s dive in to the latest and greatest from The Boys Of Winter.

The sink hole, quick sand, here’s how it works.

You step on the sand and you don’t realize you’re sinking, until it has you deep in its hold and it won’t let you go. That’s what this book did.

It’s non stop action and heart wrenching, soul crashing emotions out the gate. Ten pages in and I had tears running down my face, I have never cried over reading before but there it is.

The revelations and the twists this book took was so much to process yet you can’t put it down. You have to know and you have to keep going. You’re soul demands it.

Good God the betrayal that takes place YOU WILL NEVER SEE THE SHIZ COMING. My God it’s hard. I can’t honestly think right now cause the head mush game that was played was BURTAL!

I’m so invested in this series so I’m loving this kind of hurt. I have a new title for SA now, The soul crusher. Take that crown girl and WEAR IT!

WHAT!!!!!! WHAT!!!! WHAT!!!!!! I.. NEED.. BOOK.. #4!!!

This is the third book in this series Boys of Winter #2 and I didn't see that ending coming, guys come on don't do this to us. This is the best series I have ever read and I recommend that everyone read it, but oh my, this book will also have you at edge of my seat read as it ends of a cliffhanger too a huge cliffy. I couldn't put it down all the way through and the way that this author totally knocked it out the park with this one.

Winter is not having a good time of it at the moment and all the people she once thought she could trust or call a friend is no more, this bad ass woman can only rely on herself in this dark world of Dynasty. I really feel for her and how alone she really is and I hope she gets back in a bad ass way, come on girl, take, it, back!!!
Carver, King, Grayson and Cruz seem to be on there own mission in this world so is all as it seems?

I really love how this author writes she completely captivates me totally and once I start reading her books I can stop at all. I really enjoyed reading this book it is a RH, it is hot and steamy and has a lot of suspense and nail biting moments and this author has written it fantastically. I loved how she has written the characters and how they pull the reader into the lives and be hooked on everything about them inside and out. This book is amazing and had my emotions all over the place, it has drama, twists, and some whopping shocks that you wont see coming. I couldn't put it down and the way that this book ended, noooo I'm in shock. This book will completely blow your mind and it deserves 5 million stars. This author has written an absolutely fantastic series.

This... it isn’t real, right? The end? Please someone tell me this was all just a fever dream brought on by my Covid vax and that I didn’t read what I think I just read. There has to be more to it. Has to be. Like they were faking it so Paris would think she was dead or something. Right? I can’t believe that this whole reverse harem romance has been nothing more than a lie. And after Ember? I just cannot. I feel ill.

The way I see it, this can go one of three ways.

A) the boys really did betray her and try to kill her and she’s totally on her own now. I think this is the least likely option.

B) the boys came up with this plan and enacted it while leaving her in the dark, in which case they’ll find her again and grovel. She’ll of course forgive them, even though I personally think this is one of those unforgivable deal breakers and she should cut her losses and move on if that’s the case. Tbh with the amount they’ve been lying to her, she should have been questioning the relationships regardless.

C) winter is in on the plan and it was all an act for Paris/ember who we can assume are watching/have bugged the cabin. So now they think she’s dead and she has the element of surprise/ a huge advantage.

I’ll be starting a Boys of Winter support group for those who feel traumatized by that ending.

OMG!! I didn't think it was possible for a book to captivate me as much as this book did!
Never has a book series made me feel the way this has, this is a story that will leave you questioning everyone and everything...nothing is at is seems and i just cant fathom what 'Winter' will do next!?

This book has it all, suspense, twists and an emotional rollercoaster i did not want to end! My heart was in my mouth so many times, i honestly cannot get enough of these guys and their love for Winter!

That cliffhanger was probably the best i have ever read, i think i went back and read it about ten times to try and wrap my head and heart around it, because Sheridan you have left me heart broken and i just don't want to accept that the guys did that....August seems like a lifetime away and i just cant stop thinking about the characters, this story and that ending!!

I cannot recommend a book and author more highly! If you are a fan of dark twisted, suspense filled RH romance then this should be top of your list!!

I received an ARC from the author and this is my honest review.

Deviant Boys of Winter Book 3 by Sheridan Anne

My damn mind has been blown🤯 This book is a complete mind f**k. I’m not okay, I repeat, I’m not okay! I started holding my breath around 50% so by the time I was done, I was dead💀 It hurts so bad but it’s one of those good types of bad. I will be patiently waiting for the next book in this series. It’s really hard to explain this book without giving any spoilers away. All I can say is, READ THE BOOK!!!

Forget 5 stars, this book is more like 20 stars with a high level of steam!

Woah, that ending! Thank goodness I already have the last book in this series, because if I had had to wait, it would have driven me insane!
The drama and intrigue just continues getting messier in this book. I am glad that we're not dealing with Mommy Issues, I've read that trope a few too many times. Winter is sometimes so stupid, acting before thinking further than her nose, that I really want to slap her around the head. Yes, King is still my favourite; although, I can tell that the author's favourite is Carver. The fact that Winter told King first out of all the guys that she loves him, had me all kinds of happy.
In any case, I'm off to read the final book, there has to be a good reason for what went down in the end of this book because I seriously doubt if it is betrayal by the guys.

In this world of danger, desire, and secrets, we have a front-row seat to Winter’s chaotically disturbing life! Fierce and defiant, she isn’t afraid to challenge the status quo, making her journey through a world filled with powerful enemies and twisted relationships both riveting and intense.

The tension between the leads is palpable, with a mix of fiery passion and underlying darkness that keeps the pages turning. The plot is full of twists and turns, blending suspense and romance in a way that’s both gripping and satisfying.

I love this series! I’m so emotionally invested - the betrayal in this one hit me hard!

First off Sheridan Anne blows my whole da*n mind with every story she writes and each one of the of these books in the Boys of Winter series gets better and freaking better. Just when I think it can’t get any crazier and have any more bombs dropped…. That all blows up in my face! Let’s just say this one starts off and the crazy train has already jumped the tracks. This was nonstop drama, mystery, suspense and STEAM!!! Hold onto ur panties ladies because Winter and her her boys are freaking HOT AF!!! Winter no matter all the BS getting thrown her way is still a complete bada** and keeps it pushin. You are literally going to run through a train wreck of emotions and it will leave you with ur jaw on the floor!!! This is one of those books that will leave you with a hangover for days heck even weeks after you have finished and have you dying for the next one!!! I can’t wait!!!!

I’m shook. Have you ever read a book, and you know it’s going to just wreck you? Heart beating fast, stomach sinking, nerves twisting ? That’s what it’s like to read this book.

Winter is living in a pit filled with snakes. She can’t trust anyone that’s sitting at the table with her, her home is constantly being broken into, and every “fun” night she’s ever had has been tainted by death or a truth bomb. There’s unknown enemies all around her, including her mother who is trying to kill her. The boys are trying to keep her safe, but are also keeping things from her.

Her boys are lying to her, the board is lying to her, and her entire life may be a lie. Where the hell does she go from here ? My heart is pounding, and I don’t know what to think after reading this book. I am going to tell you that Sheridan is a master at what she does, and will have you questioning everything that you thought you knew about the Boys of Winter. I am completely shook.

I was supposed to have surgery Wednesday morning. Arcs came out the night before. I told myself not to start until my surgery was over. Of course I have no self control and started reading it that night. Next morning I had gotten a call from my surgeon saying it was postponed, I was ecstatic thanking the good lord that nothing will stop me from reading this book now !!!
Wow this series continues to blow my mind. 3 book in, its Darker , more thrilling , and amazing. Once again I’m left speechless. My mind is right now is that curser at the start of a page that continuously blinks but no words are being typed. *blink* *blink* *blink*
Everything that happens in this books weighs you down, all the new revelations, the secrets the lies, it consumes you its all you can think about. Im still struggling to digest it. WTF…
DEVIANT has to be the most emotional book of this series. The past 2 books were all about Winter and the boys. It wasn’t like that with this one. Winter was the star of this show and I found the boys to be an after thought ( except my boy carver. I will die for him )
We know that winter is badA$$
and hardcore and will do everything and anything to protect herself and the boys that are slowly becoming her world ( 👀 ) Winter was different in this one you. Everything she’s going through and feeling is finally coming to a head. She a ticking time bomb waiting to go off and when she does look the hell out. You get to see 2 sides of her in this book you see her become darker and more unpredictable but you also see her more emotional., which has her reacting on those feeling she not used. Which added to the intensity of this book. Every twist and turn was a blind one. You had know Idea what was going to happen. I think she really knows and understands now that it really is kill or be killed and she’s ready to finish this war without or without her boys She’s Done with this sh*t show and now knows the only person she can trust is herself.
But the cliffhanger ! SHERIDAN !!! WHAT THE EVER LOVING F*** !! Lol !!
August needs to come fast. Im already impatient for #DEITY

So I just finished the book and the shock is still fresh! First of all Sheridan Anne is an evil genius!! And I also want to throw my kindle at her and make her pay for the therapy I may need!! Read this series ASAP!!!!!!

Ok so let’s get to it.... I absolutely love that each guy has their own personality, even though they come from a similar background, they each give Winter something she needs and create an amazing unit. And I feel like each relationship is a little different from the others, not more or less just different, which is amazing bc some other RH I have read didn’t have that aspect and I love it. We finally get some emotion from Carver this book!! I���ve always liked his dark broody character, but we get to see more of him this time and I’m liking him more and more. I feel like we did get some answers in this book, but with the freakin twists and turns and that ending? 😱😱😱 I’m left with so many more questions and also a broken heart and brain 💔💔 now I must return to regular society and function and a normal adult and wait for the next one to put me out of my misery!!! Wishing there were more than five stars because this rollercoaster of a book had me feeling every single emotion and left me begging for more!!!

After reading both book 1 & 2 in this series I couldn't wait to read this book! It didn't disappoint one bit, I couldn't put it down until the end and then I wanted to throw my kindle across the room, lol. This book is full of crazy moments, laughs, all kinds of feels, and plenty of Steamy times. Winter keeps trying to find where she belongs and there's always things happening that she has to deal with. We get to see more of the relationship Winter and the boys have even if the the society keeps trying to ruin it for them. In the end Sheridan kills us with a cliffhanger of all cliffhangers. I can't wait for the next book!!!

So remember in my review of book one I said Sheridan knocked her first rh out of the park well., she went and made a whole new park.. this series is sexy, dangerous and seriously devious.. just when I think I know what’s happening I’m thrown completely out of the field ..
Her writing is brilliant and soul sucking to say it mildly.. I was on the edge of my seat throughout this book.. everything the characters were feeling I felt and then some... I am not sure how I will survive til the next book comes out but I know somehow Sheridan will make it all worth while..
The cliffhanger just about broke me because no freaking way was I expecting that.. but that how she always does me and somehow I keep coming back for more ,, that’s what I love about her to be honest .. she is seriously one of my favorite authors and she has to know by now that I’m a super fan and I can only hope that rh is her new jam..
I know this isn’t the review you wanted for the book but I can’t tell you anything without giving away anything and that’s just not fair to you... just trust me.. you don’t want to miss a single word.. it’s that good.,

DESTROYED!!!!

I loved ever second of this book until the last two pages. I’m destroyed, there’s no other way to explain how I’m feeling! The steam with the guys is definitely amped up in the book. I spent the first 20% of the book either crying or laughing, and sometimes laughing while crying. I absolutely adored all the feelings Winter, Grayson, Carver, Cruz, and King shared. The hot tub scene was 🔥, Some dark and twisty turns, and plenty of backstabbing. I’m still thinking none of that matters, after the cliffhanger. What the actual 🤬 happened? 😱 😭😭😭😭 I need a hug, my heart hurts. 💔

How does this series continue to get better and better the more I read?! The spice in this book is so good! The twists and turns had me audibly gasping because there’s no way in heck I saw some of them coming from a mile away. Lastly that dang cliffhanger!! Thank goodness I waited to read this until the series was complete because otherwise I would be losing my mind.
