That ending kinda killed my Ok, I picture HUNDREDS of endings, but this was... UHG!!!! I AM disappointed!!! It was going so well!!! oh my lord, WHY????
That ending kinda killed my vibe, I've been believing something, and then the author puts my world upside down, I don't know who to hate, Verity, Jeremy, Lowen, or Colleen Hoover!
That twist at the end just left me wondering so much stuff, I kinda feel incomplete now. I wanted a good closure!!! How's Lowen gonna live knowing that without losing her mind is beyond me.
Besides that ending, the rest of the book was MARVELOUS! It was so well written, it had a lot of wicked descriptions and if you are a sensible person who cannot sleep at night after watching a horror movie, you should read it during the day or skip it completely. Though it doesn't matter at what time of the day you read it, it will still leave you feeling uneasy because there are some child abuse and abortions attempts that the way they were described leaves you with the creeps
This story I felt it very human, every character had their questionable moment and there weren't heroes in here. Everyone was always looking for their own benefit and ways to not go to jail (LOL). I like to think we all have some of Verity on us, those dark thoughts had been with us at some points in our lives and it's kinda refreshing reading a character like her. I couldn't hate here at the end, because I honestly don't know what was true or not. I couldn't love Jeremy because there wasn't much to say of him, just that he loved his children and it was an exceptional fucker. On the other hand, Lowen was neutral to me, I'd empathize with her and her paranoia just because the book was written from her perspective and I DON'T KNOW HOW COLLEEN DID IT but I could feel the exact way as Lowen's was feeling when she was afraid, (in RL I will look behind my shoulders just to check that verity wasn't standing behind me! LOL!) though I couldn't share her love for Jeremy because I didn't ACTUALLY get to know him.
I couldn't put it down until I was finished, I wanted to know what was gonna happen next even though I was scared the whole freaking book. So good. Except for the end. But I still recommend it, because the way Colleen evokes certain feelings in you is so unique, and cannot get enough of her stories....more

I just can't with all the perfection this author creates. I flat-out loved this book. I savored just like any other and I just want to reread it all over again. I finished just a few days ago and I just can't stop thinking about it and going back to it to read specific scenes.
Hovard can't do anything wrong as far as I'm concerned. This is the angstiest book so far and I just had my heart broken and then pull back together with this story. A second-chance-love with a flawless and unique prose that sucks you in from the first sentences. Feelings are everywhere and I just adored it.
Maybe I should write a proper review in the future but right now I can't think clearly. Ahg, Roe, you always leave me speechless. Hate you and love you so much 😭
Goddamn it with this series. It's managed to completely destroy me and reduce me to a barely functioning human being. I'm pretty sure everyone's mad aGoddamn it with this series. It's managed to completely destroy me and reduce me to a barely functioning human being. I'm pretty sure everyone's mad at me for completely ignoring them these past few days. I couldn't put it down. I was up till 2 am reading it. Until my eyes were so tired that I couldn't read the next paragraph.
I can't believe it's finished! I'm in shock with everything that happened. I don't even know if I'm in the best state of mind to write a review. Everything is too fresh and I just want to start weeping of sadness and happiness all at once. Though, I don't think I have more tears on me. This book left me dehydrated.
I can't even think coherently right now. All I can say this was an amazing experience. A such well-written story that touched so many aspects that left me speechless. Kudos to the authors.
It's addictive. As I said, I couldn't put it down. Many times I will wake up at 6 am to keep reading. Yes, that's the only way I can voluntarily wake up at those ungodly hours.
I mean, how cannot I be obsessed if it's full of romance, soul-shattering moments, action, suspense, comedy, hotness and of course, "OMG, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT HAPPENED","PLEASE DON'T LET HIM BE DEAD" or "Fucking die already, bitch!" screams? All those factors create a mind-blowing story, impossible not to want to devour it.
I didn't know what to expect with Fade, but the whole series certainly ruined my life. I still can't shake the feeling of terror and heartache I had from the very beginning. This book is +10000 stars for me and I'd undergo all the pain of reading it again because it's totally worthy and who knows if I missed something the first time around?
I'm completely in love with these books and with Boyd, Hsin, Emilio, Zach, Ryan, Kassian, Owen, Harriet, and so on... ;)
(view spoiler)[I just can't believe Boyd lost his eye. My only comfort is to think that a pirate look might work perfectly on him. Still, as I told Vir: Es mejor tuerto, que muerto. ;P (hide spoiler)]...more

I was super excited when I saw that Jude’s book was finally out! Dylan’s story was absolutely brilliant and I knew Mrs. Morton wouldn’t disappoint me with Jude.
Jude, Asa, and Billy made this story so worthwhile. They were real, funny and the chemistry between them was natural. They made me fall in love with each one of them and made me laugh so hard more than once. Boy, oh, boy, I absolutely love Mrs. Morton’s dark and subtle humor.
Seriously, the banter was amazing! That’s one of the reasons I was so hopeless wishing for another of Morton’s book. What I like the most is that this author’s managed to write something angsty and funny without being too much.
This was me whenever Jude or Asa interacted with each other:

but then they got me like:

because their chemistry and love were off the chart.
And billy….

Definitely, Billy is one of the best kids I’ve read till now. He felt like an actual kid to me. This is a sore point for me. I usually hate reading books with kids involved because authors always manage to let me down. They write a kid that isn’t a kid. A kid who’s more mature than the MCs and that doesn’t feel real, at all.
Deal Maker nailed it with the characters personalities. Everything was perfect. Well, almost.
I only have one little niggle and it’s one of the reasons why I can’t give it 5 stars. The end was kind of “rinse and repeat” stuff. Or at least, that’s how I perceived it. It was too damn similar to the first book and that was a bummer for me. It seems that Mrs. Morton’s trademark is to have one of the MCs buy a house in the country for his lover. Uhmm, nope, please. Like Jude said, Gabe it’s certainly establishing a trend.
Nevertheless, I enjoyed the epilogue. I almost cry, it was beautiful.
God, I loved this book. This is a witty, heartbreaking and memorable story that I decidedly recommend.
P.S. Whenever the author described Asa I couldn’t help but imagine Jason Momoa. What incredible visuals I had during the sex scene imagining this man.
The beginning was really good, I wish the rest would've been like that for me. Troy's character sucked me into the story immediately.
Troy's is one of The beginning was really good, I wish the rest would've been like that for me. Troy's character sucked me into the story immediately.
Troy's is one of the members of the most famous boy band. His brother Tyson is the star and he has always taken care of him and his whole family. After he discovers that Ty is taking drugs and partying more than ever he quits and decides to book a private fly to LA from Sydney to look for her mom and to ask her to help him out with his little brother.
Brian is the first officer of the private plane that Troy hired, he lived atraumatic experience that doesn't let him being captain without panicking. These two bond after the crash and was somehow interested see them interact with each other.
Both were really great characters but I struggled a lot with the story. After the accident I got bored. This story gave me flashbacks of my teenage-self playing Sims Castaway and being bored as hell during the process (God, I prefer classical Sims.)
This felt more like a survival guide than a romance book. Besides I didn't feel their connection. Not even the "a hot available body" made me feel the spark between them... I was really excited because Keira is one of my fav authors, so it's a shame I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would.
Though, kudos to Keira for writing such interesting characters even though I didn't feel they were meant to be together.

Sebastian Cruz is the hot and scowly professor that had my heart at full speed. Tristan Holt is a professional hockey player that decided to go back to school to have a backup plan in case things go south with hockey.
From the first pages, I was hooked. I don't know if it was because this was partly Avon's work or what, but I loved every second of it. The dialogues were witty and the plot was fast-paced. I never got bored. I sighed, laughed, blushed and swooned almost the whole book.
I haven't read Piper's work so I wouldn't know how she added her magic here but I think these two meshed their writings and ideas pretty well.
I flat-out love how Tristan went back to his study even though he knew it was going to be difficult because of his hockey stuff and I love he wasn’t discouraged because of his hockey mates who didn’t understand why he bothered. He’s brave and hard working and you have no idea how I adore those kinds of people.
And oh my god, KINKY SEX ALERT!!!
The sex was hot af. It was bossy and dirty, though this kinky stuff of humiliating someone during the sex isn't my cup of tea I have to admit it was hot as hell and I could stand it because I *cough* love bossy men in bed *cough*
I enjoy the way the relationship developed: it was smooth and real -just like the characters -and I must say the UST at the beginning was the best part for me. I always love slow build-ups. aaaaaaand just like every couple they obviously had issues. The way these two authors kicked those problems out of the picture was perfect. No unnecessary drama or rash conclusion.
Another fantastic hit on the sports romance department. Highly recommended.

I love this series. They are full of action, hot sex with fangs and claws and great characters that won't let you sleep until you finish it.
The only tI love this series. They are full of action, hot sex with fangs and claws and great characters that won't let you sleep until you finish it.
The only thing that bothered me were the dialogues. They didn't completely work for me in this book, and Mark sometimes felt like he was 16 instead of 24, though I enjoyed it more than Tim and Seb's book.
Alec and Mark's chemistry was off the chart, unlike Tim and Seb that they bored the hell out of me. And the main problem in the plot hooked me from the begging. Falling for someone in the rival pack? Big and bullying Alpha that will make your life impossible and will add the perfect amount of angst to the storyline? Yes, please.
The story picks up just were Bitten by Design left it, so I advise you to read this series in order or it won't work. Besides, Nathan and Jared are worth to be read first. They are hot AF too.
4 stars. Recommended to those shifter lovers....more

K.A. Merikan did it again. This new installment is so dark, bloody, and violent which makes it an amazing book.
Besides, I adore that Kat and Agnes know how to write a dark story without being too much. They add the perfect amount of humor and sweetness to melt my heart.
As always, you’ll find unconventional characters between these pages. Kat and Agnes created two opposite men who complement each other so perfectly.
Robert.- he’s the definition of tall, dark and broody. His choice of work has him surrounded by violence and blood. He has hurt so many people and he thinks he can’t live with his actions anymore until one night he sees the perfect opportunity to make something right.
Nathan.- he’s funny, full of life and smiles. He’s an escort and he had his life planned: find a sugar daddy, save up, and open a hotel. Sadly for him, he can’t carry out those plans because his life turns upside down when he sleeps with the wrong guy.
The story was absolutely brilliant. The ‘what’s going to happen next’ kept me on the edge of my seat. I know Agnes and Kate don’t hesitate to make harsh decisions for their characters (a thing I love) and because of that I was so worried and scared for my babies. They went through too much already and through the whole book, the pain and suffering almost never stop.
But I promise you there are some beautiful and hot moments too! Robert and Nathan were incredible hot together, the UST was so intense and the sex so hot that my kindle was going to burn! And the things they said to each other!! Oh, my gash… I was swooning and sighing constantly.
The writing was exquisite as always, but it had some typos and missing commas. Nothing that a good editing can’t fix and I hope they will fix it for the release day.
Overall, this was an excellent story and it goes directly to my favorite bookshelf. I laughed, I cried, I gasped, I sighed. Everything!
We Met in Death is a journey of redemption, acceptance and healing that I totally recommend!
