This was full of a lot of things but mostly heart. It was slow burn, kinda forbidden and a great case of a found family. Two NYC transplants finding each other even despite working on opposite sides of a job. The friendship group was so much fun and even though this was kinda low angst, I was rooting for Rocco and Julia all the way.

Excitement! Jayna and Kiran's story had. it. all. My first read by this author and I'm honestly blown away. I had no idea what to expect and I was thrown in the deep end with so much heartbreak and sorrow. This hit me in the feels almost the entire way through and i appreciated how it touched on race, society and social standing in certain communities and what lengths people in power will go to to stay there. What got me the most was despite what had torn them apart, Jayna and Kiran never stopped longing and loving each other. I volunteered to listen and review a complimentary copy of this. All opinions are my own.

The chemistry between Maven and Auden was immediate, red hot and dragged you right in to their story. I'm not going to give the twists away but needless to say they were such that I had a great deal of difficulty putting this down and now I'm gonna be slumpy until the next release. 4.5 stars...more

This forced proximity dark romance had everything I wanted and more Mia might be naive about certain things but she wasn't any less of a badass. Bones is the classic OTT J/P hero and I was here for all of it. If you've read any of the Dark Kingdom then you know good and well what Bones is about and how dark it could get. But if you don't have any triggers or you know this author, I'd encourage you to go into this blind and enjoy the ride. I sure did I volunteered to read and review an early copy of this.

I've longed for a while to know more about Drew and this delivered and then some. His HEA comes in the shape of someone who fits him so perfectly it simply had to be them.

We see more of the side characters in this saga in this instalment. Emmett, Travis and Adrianna are the focus here, but it doesn't entirely veer away from the main plot as we still see Ember and Vin here, they just aren't the focus. My heart broke for each of the MC's in this book. Travis has baggage upon baggage and Emmett and Adri don't exactly get off dirt free. I like that we see more of Adri and how she's not as innocent as one might imagine her to be. I love this series a lot I can't wait to see what else Ember and the crew have to do. ...more

This was so good and I loved it ever so slightly more than book 1. And that's mostly because Ember is being Ember and Vin is obsessed and we love to see that. Be warned though this is dark and not for the faint of heart so check your TW's and read with care....more

Charlie got 4 stars from me. This enemies to lovers workplace romance had plenty of back and forth as well a bit of tenderness. Charlie and Demi were perfect for each other.
Jackson for 4.5 stars and I'm just gonna say that the writing in this is so immersive. The characters are so flawed, yet loveable in their flaws. I'm already obsessed with the side characters (I see you Charlie and Sawyer) and this doesn't pull any punches, much like she doesn't in some of her other books.
Sawyer is one of my favourite books by this author getting 4.5 stars from me.that this was everything I was hoping it would be and more. It gave me so many emotions, angst, darkness, action, grit, found family and beautiful writing. Wonderful characters and so much excitement for what's still to come from this series....more

Still Falling For You 5 stars Angsty, second chance romances, you say? Written by one of your favourite authors? With stunning characters, plot and atmosphere that kicks you in the feels and barely lets you up for air? Then this is the book for you. The journey Zeta and Ryder go on is intense. But if you know this author, then you know to trust the process and feel the emotions because once again, they've proven that they are worth it. I felt all the emotions reading this and I don't regret a single one. I laughed, I cried, I got a little mad...but it was all for that ending Always Meant To Be 4.5 stars
Not going to beat around the bush here, this review will be short, mostly because I want; nae I NEED you to go in as blind as possible to this one and experience the angst just like I did. This might not be for everyone, but if you like an age-gap, taboo, angst ridden story of deep, soul connecting love, where you really have to watch two souls battle for their HEA, then AMTB will be the story for you. Vander and Kendall will rip your heart out but you'll thank Ms. Davis for the pleasure. I know I will

Incogneto 4 stars Once I started reading this I could barely put it down. This is one of the few Siobhan Davis books I hadn't read and it blew me away Seth and Dakota were incredible together and seeing their connection grow warmed my heart. It pulls at the heart strings and it did make me a little mad in spots but overall I'd recommend this without a doubt....more
