Absolutely amazing thriller debut from Vi Keeland!!
Most readers are used to getting some romance from Vi but this time she takes outside her usual genre and delivers an edge-of-you-seat thriller that keeps readers engage from start to finish.
I enjoyed how Vi wrote this one – it’s captivating and enthralling and just when you think you know it all and have it all figured out, Vi throws us curve ball and leaves readers with their jaws hanging wide open.
I really hope Vi writes more novels in this genre in the future. She definitely nailed the suspense, mystery and thrilling vibes throughout this whole book.
Definitely a highly recommended read.

Releasing: July 23, 2024
Tall. Muscled. Tattooed. Shane King was seriously hot, and seriously not a good guy. He went by the name Ghost with his motorcycle club, and he was now their national vice president.
When Shane and his club arrived in town, they began doing favors for my family. I didn’t know why. I didn’t want to know. Favors came with strings attached. I didn’t want strings attaching me to the Red Demons.
Shane was a different beast, though. I should steer clear of him, except I couldn’t. He was everywhere, and he always looked like he wanted to tie me up in all sorts of strings.
A part of me wanted to let him. A part of me yearned to let him. But no.
Shane might act like the hero, but he wasn’t. He was the villain. And I was about to learn that the strings that came with Shane… …they would be my unraveling.
** This is a standalone motorcycle club romance.

Midnight Whispers is the third book in the Midnight Manor series. It’s a wonderful retelling of Cinderella and features Nero Voss. Even though each of these books can be read as a standalone, I HIGHLY encourage readers to start from the beginning to get the full experience of these four brothers.
Cinder is the perfect Match for Nero in so many ways. I loved how this story plays out; the pacing is perfect and how things unfold between these two suits their story well.
While this is listed as a dark romance, it’s definitely on the lighter side of dark. It has some light BDSM scenes and keeps things intriguing.
I love that each book in this series fits the brother and his mannerisms so well. P. Rayne delivers another excellent book in this series. I cannot wait for the final book, Sid’s story.
Meet P. Rayne
The darker side of USA Today Bestselling Author, Piper Rayne.

Series: Book 2 of the Psycho trilogy in the Sons of Khaos Series
Genre/Tropes: Dark MC Romance (with a twist) / Enemies to Lovers / Obsessive Alphahole / Touch her and die vibes
Psycho Love by N.O. One Author is NOW LIVE!!
Get ready for the intense second installment of the Psycho trilogy in the Sons of Khaos Series. With dark MC romance, enemies to lovers, and obsessive alphahole vibes, this book will keep you on the edge of your seat!
The world stopped spinning as I crossed the finish line. What should have been a time for celebration turned into my worst nightmare.
Nothing, not even my brothers, can stop the inevitable.
The Rebels are all going to die and I won’t stop until I fulfill that promise.
But when my past decides to pay me a little visit, it’s nearly impossible to keep my emotions in check.
Anger, happiness, disappointment, elation…Her actions have me questioning the simple principles of science.
The memory of our whispered promises, “No secrets, no lies”, keeps me awake at night, her betrayal too deep to forget. Her abandonment too cruel to forgive.
The night I finally go up against Cain in the illegal street race, after calling him out for the number one spot, marks the turning point in my life.
It’s a new day, with new rules, and this time…I’m playing to win.
I hate you both with all the love in my heart! LOL
Psycho Love starts immediately where Psycho Hate ends and takes off from there. You want action, you get it in this book. There is no slow down in book two.
Aleko and Mack were truly made for one another. Aleko is crazy protective of Mack and well Mack is just explosive in her personality. Together, these two will burn the world down to protect everyone they love.
I loved everything about this book. From Aleko and Mack to Bear and the rest of the MC. These two ladies know how to write a fast-paced, unrelenting story that is filled with unsuspecting new twists and turns. And that cliffhanger!! While it’s not as pulse-pounding as book one, it’s definitely still a doozy.
I cannot give enough praise to these two women for writing such page-turning stories that keep me on my toes and never get boring.

The Accardi Twins Duet, an all-new dark mafia romance duet from USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Siobhan Davis, is now available!
Cold King of New York, Book 1
Seducing the enemy was the goal—not falling for my mafia boss.
As a rookie spy, my first mission is to seduce the Irish mafia boss’s brother and prove he is behind the threat to the mafioso in The Big Apple.
It’s a dream job.
Except my new boss is sucking all the joy from my life. Don Joshua Accardi seems way too invested in my personal safety, and he’s constantly scolding me for taking too many risks.
Gone is the friendly older guy I knew growing up. His ex’s betrayal changed him. Now, Joshua is a cold, controlling man living his life by a rigid set of self-imposed rules.
He thinks he can push me around and I’ll do his bidding like every other woman in the city.
But I enjoy pushing back and seeing him lose his cool is the ultimate high.
Sparks constantly fly, and it’s not long before we cave to our insane chemistry.
Joshua has wormed his way into my heart, but the downside of loving a powerful man is getting noticed by his enemies.
Now, I’m a target and my mission just got a lot more dangerous.
YES! YES! YES!
Siobhan holds nothing back in Cold King of New York. This is a phenomenal start for the Accardi twins.
Cold King of New York sets the stage and pace for this heart-pounding duet. From the very start, this story grips you and never lets go.
Siobhan truly knows how to create depth to her stories with her uncanny writing style. Her characters are multifaceted, and it becomes so easy to see things from their POV.
This story just flows perfectly as everything unfolds but also adding more twists and turns at the same time. Siobhan blends the romance in perfectly but never pulling away from the true plot of the story.
Cold King of New York is high intensity the entire time and keeps you right in the thick of everything.
I cannot wait to see how this all plays out in Cruel King of New York.
Cruel King of New York, Book 2
The boy I grew up loving is now the made man who broke my heart.
I had one primary goal in life: to marry Don Caleb Accardi, give him lots of babies, and live happily ever after.
Until he shattered my fantasy and destroyed my belief in love.
His playboy status isn’t the issue. I learned to live with his womanizing while patiently waiting on the sideline for him to truly notice me.
But he never has. Not the way I want him to.
One promise. That’s all I asked of him, and he couldn’t even keep it.
Something inside me dies when I learn the truth, and I reach my breaking point.
This is the last time he hurts me.
I’m not saving myself for him anymore.
So, I cut him out of my life and begin dating.
Caleb sure doesn’t like that, and a switch has flipped in his brain.
Now, he wants me. And he’s pulling out all the stops to win back my heart.
Too bad it’s too late—for him and for me.
Because Caleb has powerful enemies who are aware he loves me, and now I’m fair game.
Cruel King of New York is a great ending for this duet (you must read Cold King of New York first).
This book is more romance than suspense than the first book, but don’t let that deter you. This storyline fits the characters and who they are.
Siobhan’s writing allows readers to visualize the changes in Caleb along with the hesitancy in Lili. I love that we see growth in both of them, not only as individuals but together.
Yes, this review is very short and speaks very little of what happens but that’s because the smallest bit of details will give you too much information that you need to discover yourself as you read.
The Accardi Twins duet is a great addition to the mafia world Siobhan has created and brought all of it full circle wonderfully.
BB Easton has revealed the covers for The Devil Himself!
Releasing: August 29, 2024
Discreet Cover Design: Emily Wittig Designs
Model Cover: Damonza.com

Growing up, there wasn’t a night that went by that my mother didn’t read to me from the Legend Has It series by Darby Donovan. It was her favorite—a collection of spooky folktales about a town called Glenshire and the lonely, gray-eyed fairy prince who haunted the woods there. I knew that they were just stories, but when my mother died and left me in the care of my cold, abusive father, that fictional fairy prince suddenly became very, very real to me. It was as if he was always there, hiding in the shadows, offering me his silent comfort. I created an imaginary friend when I needed one most.
And thirteen years later, I’m doing it again.
When my coastal Irish village is bombed by the new Russian president, Alexei Abramov, a Bratva leader seeking revenge on the United Irish Brotherhood, those missiles destroy everything I’ve ever known—my home, my family, and evidently, my sanity—because when I pull an injured Russian Naval officer out of the sea, a man who is the embodiment of evil, I can’t bring myself to let him die.
Secluded together in my secret hiding spot, we’re safe from the mafia war raging outside, but the overwhelming connection I feel to this stranger is a battle I fight every single day. I hate him with everything that I am, but when he looks at me with those smoky gray eyes, all I see is my friend. When he touches me, all I feel is a buzzing, electric desire. And when he wraps his lips around the sustenance that I offer him, all I want is to feel them pressed against mine, loving me, putting me back together.
But no one can live in a fantasy world forever, and when reality finally comes crashing down around us, the truth about him is even worse than I could have imagined.
BB Easton is the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 44 CHAPTERS ABOUT 4 MEN, the hilarious, steamy, tell-all memoir that inspired the Netflix Original Series, SEX/LIFE. Within the first month, SEX/LIFE was viewed by 67 million households worldwide, making it the 3rd Most-Watched Netflix Original Series of all time.
BB was a stressed-out school psychologist and mother of two when the inspiration to write 44 CHAPTERS ABOUT 4 MEN struck. Through that process, she rediscovered her passion for writing, became dangerously sleep-deprived, and finally mustered enough courage to quit her job and become a full-time author.
BB went on to publish four more wickedly funny, shockingly steamy, and heartwarmingly autobiographical books in the 44 CHAPTERS series: SKIN, SPEED, STAR, and SUIT. Since then, she’s been hard at work writing fictional stories that appeal to her love for us-against-the-world romance, including a suspenseful dystopian trilogy (BAD BOYS DON’T DIE), a psychologist-client romantic comedy (GROUP THERAPY), and a dark Irish mafia romance (DEVIL OF DUBLIN).
Every moment with him unshackles a little more of my fears, cracks another layer of ice.
My Heart Still Beats, an all-new must read, emotional, dark romance from New York Times bestselling author Helen Hardt is now available!
Some days I can almost see the person I used to be. See the version of myself that felt joy, even passion. But she’s gone…just out of reach.
Life moves on for everyone else, though, and as my best friend’s maid-of-honor, I have a bachelorette party to plan—in Jamaica, no less. And that means working side by side with the best man: Benjamin Black.
Billionaire. Workaholic. Ultimate bachelor. The perfect catch for any woman—unless she’s lost her sense of self.
Apparently my body hasn’t gotten the memo. Because from the second we meet, something begins stirring, warming my blood.
And when our hands touch, it’s a heady reminder that even if I feel numb, my heart still beats.
He’s nothing like I thought. Every moment with him unshackles a little more of my fears, cracks another layer of ice.
But I should be afraid—and so should he. Because the past never lets go so easily.
I will be quick with this one because well, I don’t have too much to say on this one.
My Heart Still Beats was right down the middle for me. With the trigger warning, I was expecting it be darker, and while for some this will be triggering, for me, it was just down the middle.
This book is perfect for those wanting to dip their toes into dark, emotional romance. There isn’t alot of depth to the darkness (sort of closed-door) that gives you and idea but never very detailed. Alot of this book is very surface level, never getting too descriptive. And for many, that’s what they want.
Helen definitely focused more on Tessa than Ben and I think that may hurt this story a bit. The plot was ok, but definitely had the potential to be more. The ending was probably the best part but still felt rushed.
Overall, it was right down the middle for me. But again, I think those looking to try out a darkish romance would enjoy this one.

When a single dad moves to a small town and becomes obsessed with a potential client—a beautiful woman haunted by her tragic past.
For years, tales of the Firefly Man were nothing more than elaborate rumors spread by residents of the Appalachian Mountains.
Until the night Evelyn Vaughn stumbled upon a dead body in the woods.
Fear gripped her, and silence stole her voice.
All while she watched the boy she was with that night take the fall.
Fourteen years later, Evelyn is nothing more than a shell of her former self.
Her life moves like a clock from one moment to the next, never a surprise.
Gone are the days of chasing fireflies through the woods.
Until her therapist goes missing, and he’s replaced with someone new.
Dr. Lincoln Reed, a devastatingly handsome single dad with an intensity behind his evergreen eyes that jolts her back to life.
Or does it?
Evelyn is quickly losing grip of the suppressed reality she’s worked so hard to maintain.
With every new session on Dr. Reed’s couch comes a startling new revelation that has her past awakening like the sparkles of light she used to chase through the nighttime woods.
The Firefly Man was supposed to be a rumor, a fable, a spooky tale.
I could not put this book down and I did not want to. I have read many sweet and swoony stories by Ms. Allen but this romantic suspense and mystery has topped all her other books for me.
I want to say so much but won’t because this story needs to be experienced without any knowledge (minus the blurb). Hell, going in blind, like myself, was perfection.
Ms. Allen truly knows how to write a story line that is multi-layered and keeps you guessing the whole time but also has you loving the blend of romance sprinkled in. And her characters – OMG! They are perfection and I could not get enough of them.
My review is purposely very limited because I am so afraid that I am going to spoil something. Plus, I am still reeling from this one and just absolutely love how this story unfolded. K.K. blended the mystery and suspense with the romance beautifully and it was just sheer perfection.
Firefly Effect was everything I needed and didn’t know it. K.K. delivers a story that you won’t be able to put down once you start and will stay with you long after you finish.
