I can't say goodbye yet! I'm regretting reading The Puckboys series first, because it would be more fun to see those guys again.. all grown up and in love.
West and Jasper wasn't different from the previous couples, I loved them so much.. enjoyed every moment I spent with them.
They were the most mature out of the series obviously, they have a very strong bond.. A very beautiful dynamic. You could say they are real partners.
The epilogue was so cute! every time my man (Foster Grand) mentioned I feel so proud.. like this is my boy, he made it! He found his way into the NHL and became one of the best with his cutie boyfriend.
Also Seth and Cohen Beck and Jacops.. My babies Asher and Kole.
I was so happy to read about them all, in the epilogue but more in the series as whole. I'm deep in love with this series, It felt like family and warm times.
Never will get enough from those boys! Absolutely gonna reread the Puckboys series only for them!

Now I need a man who will walks around with me wrapped around his waist.
Pavel.. my man, my sweet protective man. I had a soft spot for fighters.
I was exicted since the author's note in the beginning, I love the series theme so much.. how it mix between dark and sweet romance but I was looking forward to read something different, more darker with sensitive topics.
And this book done it's role, gave me all the heart warming emotions, delivered Asya truma and healing process so well.
Asya and Pavel relationship was beautiful, I was smiling all the way while reading.
Never get enough from them.
“Why go back to fighting after so many years?” “I hoped that if I got my head smashed enough times, I would forget about you. It didn’t work, mishka.”
He doesn’t look like a man you’d want to ask you on a date, but rather someone you’d want to have by your side when walking in a dark alley. Though, if someone asked me how a perfect man should look, I would point to the one standing before me.

Unexpectedly I enjoyed it, I thought I would hate it after the first 30% and I already put it down for a while. I'm not a person who's enjoying books with high spice level easily, especially when it begins early in the book so it wasn't a good start.
Moving on I'm a sucker for I wanna ruin our friendship, we should be lovers instead vibes, I'm in love with Kenne and Aspen friendship and chemistry.. They're so cute more like soulmates. And everything happened between them was so realistic for me.
Although some moments was insufferable, and I get bored many times while reading. But I'm glad I didn't hate it at the end, and 100% it's better than Iced out.
His hands grip the front of my shirt, curling it in his fists to pull me closer. Closer than he should ever dare. Closer than I should let him, out of self-preservation and fear alone. But how can I be afraid when everything about him screams things like safety and security and home?

My currently readings are so dark, so I need a sweet pause, and no thing is sweeter than best friends to lovers.

I would really gave it higher rate if it's not Gabi being himself.
I finished it fast, A work place romance? grumpy boss slash sunshine assistant?
My perfect cliché tropes!
But my thoughts about it at the beginning were different, it started really good.. the dynamic and the tension between Gabe and Dylan were fantastic.
After I reached half the book, I felt everything is going wrong.
From the early beginning I wasn't a fan of Gabe's relationships, especially with Dylan opposite needs. The poly romance isn't my cup of tea and I was very afraid that Gabe would manipulate Dylan to be a part of threesome or something. And with no doubt he did, not fully when it never happens but the valentine scene was the last chance for me with Gabe, I tried to appreciate him.. understand his weird and mysterious personality. But it was too much.
I respect his truma, actually I was so sad for him. Although I will never stop saying that being hurt don't give you the excuse for hurtit someone who gives you his own heart and all of his love. And Gabe's personality wasn't acceptable.. he's so unmature, what was he thinking when he Fired Dylan after being the reason of their Break up?? He have no respect for his partner, no equal feelings or effort.
So tell my why are so capturing him this way when you can't give him what he deserves!!
And after the breakup all the side characters started annoying me so fucking much.
Why are they talking about Gabe's feelings, that he loves Dylan and it's not one sided thing.
They're grown men, how they can't separate mutual feelings and one sided effort?? Which was happening between Gabe and Dylan.. the first never spent enough effort.
But I really loved Dylan, most of the time he was certain that this not a relationship and he knows well what he deserved. Maybe he would left Gabe grovelling more at the end ,and not to surrender around him easily when the physical thing started at the beginning, this my only objection about him.
I love the Christmas chapters, when they were at Dylan's home, his family is so cute and Gabe was vulnerable and more sufferable between them.
“Why? Why the fuck does he miss me, because he had me, Henry. He had all of me right in his hand, but he opened his fingers and threw me away. So why the fuck should he miss me, and why the fuck should I even be bothered?”
The quote summarized the whole book, Gabe was letting him go every time and Dylan knowing that he didn't want anything with him from the beginning but still feeling hurt....more

Now I'm the one who abandoned with dried emotions, Credit goes to Luke and London cutie healthy relationship and their butterfly kisses. I can't resist the butterfly kisses, ever!
*** “I think,” he began, “you’re the man I was dreaming about.” Another kiss, folded into my hand. “You’re the man I dreamed about all those years ago when I was struggling to find myself. You’re him. You’re the man I’ve been searching for my whole life.”
*** “I haven’t shown anyone my drawings in eleven years.” “I’m honored.” “I also haven’t drawn in eleven years.” I quirked a smile back at him before my nerves stole it away. “You brought this back for me. You brought everything back for me. You’ve given me my life back, Landon. You’ve given me my son back.”
*** “I’m head over heels for you, Landon. You came into my life and flipped my world upside down. Everything has meaning again. I can’t get you out of my head. Your smile and your laugh have become my sun and my moon. You brought color into my world.”...more
I'm a friends to lovers girl, and by that I mean I would read the most cliché cringe story ever, just because they're friends.
I had high expectationsI'm a friends to lovers girl, and by that I mean I would read the most cliché cringe story ever, just because they're friends.
I had high expectations, the tropes is my favorite, the MC'S appearance in the previous book was interesting but I ended have the same thoughts about the first book.
I really adore these two authors, they write the easiest books to read in the world but I'm sick of the smut, it's too much.. it ruining the story because it'so superficial with no emotions. So excuse me I will continue the series but I will never stop complaining about the very early sex, cuz you know it only made the relationship physical to me.
Aside from the smut I didn't hate anything, but also I didn't love anything.. the book felt flat at many times.
And Dex jumping suddenly from being straight asf to making out with Treppy without any introductions. Not the relationship development I was expecting. Plus at the beginning the both of them were really annoying then they become annoyingly horny in the rest of the book. Thank you very much.
I liked the plot though, but it would also done better because we're talking about two men almost in their thirty's, not two teenagers who decided to marry each otherjust for the marriage idea.
The series is addictive, and the vibes are really good especially the friends group.
But Dex and Tripp? They really disappointed me, I was expecting higher chemistry from them.
*** “I will accept retirement when my time comes, but one thing I won’t be able to live without is him. Hockey is my present. Dex is my future.”
*** “You deserve to bring a man to his knees,” I shout over the music. “And you do with me. Every day. You’re amazing, and I can’t believe I’m the one you chose, even when you thought that meant choosing nothing.”...more

Sorry for Mols and Seven, you're down to the second place now. Because Rush and Hunter?
They're the best, They're perfection. Can't describe how much I loved them.
The beginning was a little bit embarrassing and hilarious at the same time, I became so curious to know how they will get there revenge, turned out they simply fall in love. My favorite part obviously.
And I will say it to the hundredth time; Saxon James is the queen of the vulnerable and cute MMCs, She knows how to write men with so soft sides and unique personalities.
And she wrote Rush character her in a fantastic way. I loved him so much, related to him most of the time. He's the best.
As usual the friends group was so cute, So excited to Madden's book! And I really hope to get Xander's also.

“What the fuck is that?” He sighs happily, smiling down at me. “It’s you.” It’s a dragon. I blink at the black lines stretching over his ridged muscles and swallow. Alarm bells ring in my head but he takes my face in his hands, smiling down at me. “Because you’re my tiny fire-breathing dragon,” he murmurs. “Mine.”

Fun fact about me, I can't resist a scarred man.
So this book was a big smash for me, the first one was good.. enjoyable but didn't reach the level of Broken Whispers, Mikhail and Bianca were everything, Their love story was so beautiful.
I really adored Mikhail character, How can he be so terrifying but like a cinnamon roll at the end of the day with Bianca and Lena?
He's so fine, very considerate and my man do no wrong.
I'm not into Insta love in general, but this series is growing on me.. forcing me to be excited for the next book and enjoy the current reading one.

I'm not ready to say goodbye yet!
Will and Way take their own place inside my heart and in my head.
This book was better than the first one, all the things I hated was fixed here, and it's incredible.
Way character development really affected me, his relationship with Will and how it's so realistic, was built step by step.. They both suffered alot, They deserve all the happiness and the good things in the world.
Will and Way story touched my heart, Changed my vision toward many things in my life.. reminderd me to be more grateful toward my own life even if it's miserable sometimes, showed me honest.. true love story. Story written with pain, tears and butterflies kiss.
I loved how much this duo hold many emotions and messages. A long healing journey I really enjoyed, even if I had tinny objections about it.
The lost boys will find their way to the sun, to a new start. And I will be more than happy to read about their own stories.
“I’m your trigger.” I blink at him. He gestures to my chest and smiles grimly. “And you’re mine.”
***
“Every day,” he whispers against my lips a second later. “I’ll prove to you every day I’m not going anywhere. Even… even if it gets to be too much sometimes, I’ll always, always find my way back to you.”
***
That stubborn, reckless heart of his, beating heavily against my chest. Way and Will, Will and Way… Two halves of a fucking whole. Always.
*** There might be a lot I wish I could change right now—so many things I wish I could go back and do differently, just to have a little more time. But I don’t regret him. Will. Never Will. And that’s all that matters. I don’t regret a second of our story—what led up to this—because it’s ours. And regretting any of it would just give my dad more than he’s already taken. Even if all we have is the little time we had together, I wouldn’t trade it for anything in this godforsaken world.

This series is just addiction, I wasn't excited to Keller and Will story, but somehow I really enjoyed it like the rest of the series and couldn't put it down.
I love Keller and Will together, They were so cute and lovely.. I was intending to give the book higher rate but the emotional part sucks at some point in the story, and the smut was mehh. I really hate it and skipped most of it. Also the confessing scene, it didn't show Will feelings as strong as it was in his own mind, and I was waiting for this scene for so long to just see how Keller will react, but it turns out like it's not a new information, and the guy having a crush on him for years is a normal affair. So it disappointed me so much.
The many times that Molly was mentioned at didn't bother me as I was expected, He had a role in their relationship without being their because they both care too much about him. So even if I hate Molly in the others book I think I will start to changing my mind, especially after readingThe husband hoax and falling for Seven, I bet they will be a hilarious couple.
“He’s the most sexy man I’ve ever met, but when Keller looks at me, with complete, one hundred percent attention, it’s not even about appearance. It’s just him. And the way he doesn’t even realize he’s my whole world.”...more

Book one was a real let down, but this one? Rina literally ate!
Throne of power was an empty book with dozen of unnecessary smut scenes, I wasn't excited to Throne of vengeance and now I'm regretting it.
You know the type of books that hooks you from the beginning to the end? Makes you smile and cry.. leaving you empty after finishing it? It's this book.
I read it in one sitting, highlighting half of the lines, fall in love with Kyle and Rai and their beautiful love story.
Honestly I wasn't expected it to be enjoyable this much, especially with me didn't like Kyle in the first book.. Thank you Rina for unlocking me a new crush, now I wanna reread all of his scenes in God of fury and God of ruin to love him more.. the man is so good, and his wife is much better. My lovely cutie couple.
And the letter Kyle left for Rai? Excuse me? I couldn't hold my tears, it was so beautiful.. I bet she will cherish it forever.
“Don’t look for me. You won’t find me. Thank you for making me feel like a man, not a shadow, even if you were forced into marrying me.”
“Stop being jealous, you idiot.” She leans over and brushes her lips to mine, softly, carefully, away from my cut. “None of them is my husband.”...more

It's all for Christian, Saxon James knows how to write a sweet vulnerable MMC and it's so cute! Many people would see him as an idiot but not me, I loved him so much.
The story tho was just okay, I was expecting them to be married at the beginning of the book not at the last chapters.. because I thought it was a marriage for convenience with actual marriage not just fake engagement.
Over all I enjoyed it, The two MMC were cute together, The friends group was halirous and I'm excited to read all of their books.
“In a choice between screwing up my performance for Josie, or for him, I’m glad it happened the way it did, because … I think I care more about his opinion than any of my so-called family.”

When I read about two mature, really mature characters something inside me blooms.
Elliott and Catherine were the perfect couple, the greenest flags ever!
The two knew how to communicate well, to solve problems in adults way, to build a real happy family together, to be a good parents. I really envy Joey; the girl gets a perfect hot daddy and a cool lovely mommy. Lucky her.
I can't talk about all the things that I loved because I'm gonna write down the whole book.
So lets just admiring their exploding chemistry and the sweet physical touch.. I'm a goner for two clingy partners. And don't forget the Lactation kink cuz yeah I saw many hate toward it in the reviews but man! It's so hot and kinky for me.
Elliott and what he did for Catherine all along the book, he loved her.. respected her.. treated her in they way she deserved, and knowing that he's a tiddy cuddling bear was just adorable. I would give my soul for a man like him. No more to say.
“Hi, sweetheart.” “Hi, Elliot.” “You’re a sight for sore eyes.”...more

This is the best Saxon James book so far.
It's warm.. emotional.. funny.. hot.
I loved everything about Molly and Seven, and as a Molly's hater from The divorced men club series I'm really impressed, I never expected to love him that much, he's personality was so interesting here, the opposite from the dull one from the other books.
The development of their characters was really enjoyable to read about. The small details between them warmed my heart literally. The hugs, The dates.. The tattoo.. The comic.. The vegetables pie. Every thing was perfect.
I really loved this book, and Xander!! OMG I need a book about him please. Plus all the boys they're really cute. I adore their relationship together.
Keller appearance made me smile hardly, I love the man.

As much as I’m starting to feel things for him, there’s no way I’m going to drag someone this amazing into a relationship with someone as damaged as me. If people think I’m protective of Xander, that’s nothing to how I’d be with someone like Molly. Someone so sweet, and pure, and innocent. I’d suffocate him....more

But I think this is the speciaThis was literally a whole mess.. a very good mess though, I don't know what I liked and what I don't about it anymore. But I think this is the special thing about this book; it makes me feel angry and heart warming, sad and happy, hating the characters and falling in love with them. All at the same time.
The writing was so good, some quotes had punched my heart literally.
“Everywhere I turn... I breathe you in and bleed you out. ”
It wasn't perfect, and at some points Lennon and Phoenix really pissed me off, very hard! and I done nothing except continue reading. Cuz it's an addiction.. no thing more to say.
“It’s all coming together. But inside I’m unraveling. Every time I sing the song I want to puke, because they aren’t my words. They’re yours. Everything I have is yours. Including the fucked-up thing in my chest. I don’t know how I’m supposed to enjoy any of this without you. I’m still lying here... In the mess I made.”...more

I started this book blindly after watching a TikTok video (Thank you very much booktok!), because I had a reading block and was searching for something will make me crazy until I finish it. And this book made me crazy, not in a good way though.
Like I said I hate it because of my own taste, I don't like the over submissive bottom, and Xavie take it so far, it becomes more humiliating to read his pov, his hopeless obsession with Nate, accepting all the punches.. the insults.. the pain.. the hurt.
He didn't deserve all of this! And I was waiting for Nate to grovel for forgiveness, he never did.
I hated Nate, sorry for your truma boy you still a judgmental asshole.
I felt the angst, the pain, but the book only hurted me.. never gave me the comfort I was expecting and looking for.
And don't let me start about the book title. Seriously? This is the real meaning? Fuck me like you hate me? Where's the depth beneath it?
And I will not be convinced that it mean something else, because I read 400 pages of hate sex and pain. Nothing else.
P.s: I DNF dirty love months ago, because of the same dynamic; Exaggeratedly dom top × humiliating sub bottom, so sadly I think the author work not form me, I loved her writing style despite of everything....more
