Review Blitz…Heartsick by Monica James

Each beat hides a secret, and his voice now replaces the music, demanding I uncover the truth.

Heart Sick, an all-new edge-of-your-seat dark romance from International Bestselling author Monica James is available now!

Piano has always been my one true love.

So when the music stops, I do whatever I can to hear it again.

But when I wake, all I hear is his heart and the memories that come with it.

This is my body.

My mind.

But not my heart.

Each beat hides a secret, and his voice now replaces the music, demanding I uncover the truth.

I’m sent to a place to get better, and that’s when I meet her.

Every artist needs a muse, and Luna allows me to hear the music again. But when her secrets soon become mine, I realize it’s because I’ve lived this life before.

Or rather, he has.

The man whose heart beats within my chest knows Luna…and everything she’s done.

A panic overcomes me as I frantically scramble to take the tubes out of his mouth and nose. 

“Ms. Huxley! Stop.”

But I will not.

The doctors and nurses don’t know my son better than me. He was born a fighter. He doesn’t die this way. 

Strong arms pull me away, but I am stronger and fight with all my might. I may be slender, but that’s never stopped me in the past. I kick, scream and bite, but in the end, I am yanked away from Misha as doctors and nurses attempt to restrain me in a brown leather chair. 

Spittle dribbles from my chin as I am a rabid momma protecting her cub. 

Dr. Sterling crouches low as I thrash wildly. “I know this is very painful for you. I can’t even begin to imagine your pain. But we have a match for Misha’s…heart. Don’t let his death be in vain. Your son can live on by saving the life of another. Please, Ms. Huxley, honor your son as I know he would want.”

His heart?

 Vomit rises and I turn my face, expelling nothing but bile onto the polished linoleum. 

“You want to take his…heart?”I ask, horrified, my voice quaking when I can construct a coherent sentence. “You monster!”

The doctor doesn’t take offense. “Only with your approval.”

I know protocol is that the hospital can proceed even over family objection, and I am objecting very damn hard. But Dr. Sterling is trying to reason with me. She wants me to see this is the right thing to do. 

But there is no right.

 Why does this person deserve to live while Misha dies? 

He walks around with the heart that is as much a part of me as it is my son’s. No, that isn’t fair. That is a cruel reminder that I will never get back the only person who I ever loved in this world. 

Think if it was me, Mom. If I had the chance to live…” Misha’s words ring loudly and I cover my ears, blocking out what I know is the truth.

 “If I do that, that means you d-die,” I whimper, squeezing my eyes shut.

 “Who are you talking to?” Joy asks, her concern clear. “I’m already gone. But I can live on. Every beat of my heart helps another live.”

Misha has always been selfless, and it seems even in death, it’s no different. 

But how do I say yes? How can I live knowing I said yes to ending my son’s life so another can live?

 “We don’t have much time,” the doctor says softly.

 “Who is it?”

“We are not at liberty to—”

“If I am giving you my son’s fucking heart, then I want to know it’s going to someone who deserves it!” I remove my hands and blink back my tears. 

The doctor peers around the room to ensure no one can hear. “It’s a young man, a little older than your son, and I can assure you…he will look after Misha’s heart.”

“What’s his n-name?”

The doctor appears torn whether to reveal this information to me, but she knows this will make all the difference. If I can humanize this match as not merely a number but a person, she knows I will say yes.

 “Dutch.”

“What sort of name is that?”I ask abruptly, sniffing away my tears. 

“It’s a unique name for a very unique man. He will honor Misha because his heart is theirs. It’s because of Misha that Dutch can live. Please.”

Peering over at Misha, I can’t help but think he would actually like Dutch’s strange name because Misha never judged. He accepted everyone.

 I watch the rise and fall of his chest and memorize every single breath. But this won’t be the last memory I have of my son.

 I come to a shaky stand and forget where I am as I climb onto the hospital bed and press my ear to Misha’s chest. I listen to the tender rhythm of his heart, the heart which was always too big for this world. 

Wrapping my arms around him, I sob quietly. I don’t think I’ll ever run out of tears. “I’m sorry, Misha. I’m so sorry. You don’t deserve this. You deserve to live. If I could give you my life, I would, because I am nothing without you. Please forgive me. This is my fault.”

Clutching Misha, I remember his smell, the softness of his skin. I remember that no matter what happens, in life or death, he will always, always be my son.

 “Okay,”I whisper, choking back my tears. “You can have his heart because mine is fucking broken.”

And those are the last words uttered as I succumb to the darkness, wishing to never see the light again.

Ok

BRAVO MONICA!!! WOW!!!

I am fairly new to reading Monica’s books but I can tell you, I have quickly become a HUGE fan of her writing.

Heart Sick is like nothing I have ever read before and I have read a lot of dark romance. There were so many twists and WTF moments, that my jaw practically became unhinged from how many times it dropped.

I could not stop reading this book once I started. It’s a wild, f*cked up ride and I was there for every moment of it. I had no idea what was going to happen next and I love that about this book. It was thrilling and filled with so much suspense. I love how she dribbled the romance aspects in and while the plot hints at that, it’s not all about that.

I want to say so much, but I can’t for fear of giving something important away. My only gripe was that the ending felt a bit rushed compared to the rest of the book. I wanted a bit more details on certain things, but maybe we’ll get those in the next book. Yes, this is a duet and continues on in the next book.

Monica – I applaud you for your raw and unique storyline and characters.

Readers – if you love a dark and twisted romance – grab this one now.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Dirty Crazy Bad Two by Siobhan Davis

In the secret society of The Luminaries, no sin will go unpunished…

Dirty Crazy Bad 2, the addictive and jaw-dropping conclusion to the dark reverse-harem Dirty Crazy Bad Duet from USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Siobhan Davis is live now!

The Greed & Gluttony Luminary has trapped us into executing his evil plans, and it seems we have little option but to agree. Carter has orchestrated Chad’s kidnapping, and he holds my mom’s life in his hands.

Then he drops a game-changer

We must play our parts—or at least look like we are—because the fate of our loved ones, and the world at large, depends upon it. There is no choice.

It’s a delicate balancing act, with many obstacles and no guarantee of success. Carter has spent years planning his takeover and knowing who to trust is impossible.

Teamwork is the only way we can defeat him. But that is challenging when relationships are fractured, the guys are sworn enemies, and loyalties have been pushed to their limits.

It’s up to me to make this work, so I will push my grief aside to be there for Ares, Jase, and Chad.

Rhett Carter cannot become Lord of the Luminaries and we’re the only ones that can stop him.

I don’t even know what to say.

DCB2 is even more tantalizing, jaw dropping and suspenseful as DCB1.

Siobhan holds nothing back as she takes readers on an intense & dangerous ride with twists you can’t imagine to deliver a superb ending.

This book (whole duet) is not for the faint of heart as there are some depraved scenes that have your heart breaking. The secret society is more cruel and twisted than you’ll ever envision – they are the law.

Let’s not forget that woven into all that mayhem, is some swoon-worthy and very hot harem romance.  Chad, Jase & Ares do not let our girl down in so many ways.

DCB2 is a suspenseful thriller that will keep you guessing til the end.  Siobhan packs a heavy story with amazing characters and delivers an epic ending.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Poet by Lisa Renee Jones

Title: The Poet

Series: Samantha Jazz Series #1

Author: Lisa Renee Jones

Release Date: March 9, 2021

THE POET

New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones brings a fresh, modern take to the thriller genre that will keep you guessing until the very end.

“The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth.” -Jean Cocteau 

Some call him friend or boss. 

Some call him husband or dad. 

Some call him son, even a favorite son.

But the only title that matters to him is the one the media has given him: The Poet. 

A name he earned from the written words he leaves behind after he kills that are as dark and mysterious as the reason he chooses his victims. 

One word, two, three, a story in a poem, a secret that only Detective Samantha Jazz can solve. Because he’s writing this story for her. 

She just doesn’t know it yet. 

This title is a standalone that follows a single case. There is no cliffhanger. But the world of Samantha Jazz will continue with The Girl Who Forgot!

EXCERPT

I move on to what I know. “The Poet, an organized killer, a planner. Highly intelligent. Well employed. These types like to appear stable and we’re most likely looking at someone in a circle of family to shelter himself, even convince himself he’s normal. None of this is on paper. And I don’t feel like I have room for error on this one.”

“The Poet?”

“That’s what I’m calling him.” 

“Whatever you call him, do you really think he’s a serial killer?”

“I know he’s a serial killer. We just have to find his victims.”

“I’ll get you your profile for peace of mind.”

“Thank you, Wade,” I say, gratitude in my voice.

“Thank me by being careful. If this asshole came after Roberts, you could be next.”

“If Roberts was his type, I am not.”

Be careful, Detective Jazz,” he says, and this time he uses his best Special Agent Wade Miller voice, the detective title meant to make the “I’m serious” point. 

I am. I called you for a reason. I’m going to get him before he ever has the chance to get me.”

We disconnect a few seconds later and I pull up the poem compilation Chuck put together for me on my MacBook. I gravitate toward the poem The Poet left called “Fate, The Jester. His message could be in those few lines or in another verse inside the full poem. I read it all slowly, all eight paragraphs, dissecting each one, but I return to the three lines he left in Summer’s mouth:

Who laugh in the teeth of disaster,

Yet hope through the darkness to find

A road past the stars to a Master

A master, a statement that seems to reference superiority and drives home my earlier thoughts. The Poet judged Summer beneath him. Perhaps he judges us all beneath him. He believes he’s above the law, and that’s dangerous to those who come into contact with him.

That means I need to become dangerous to him, and quickly.

The Poet grabbed my attention with the cover and the blurb. The blurb had set my expectations for a suspenseful and twisty thriller, but in turn, it was more of police procedural than anything else. It was not bad, just not what I had anticipated.

A serial killer, nicknamed “The Poet,” is on the loose and leaves behind poems as his signature. Detective Samantha Jazz is called in to take over the case as she has a bit of a background in poems from her college years.

The books flips back and forth between views from both Sam and The Poet. It was interesting to see how Sam takes this case on, digs into things, and tries to figure out who it is. Her “spidey sense” and her process of going through the case file are quite detailed and you can tell that the author did a lot of research in this area to make it more authentic and true to life.

While I enjoyed the book, it was bit a slow, with very little suspense in terms of a thriller. I enjoyed walking through the aspects of how a detective works a case, their nuances and how they piece everything together. There isn’t a lot of action but again – this book was definitely more police procedure and not focused on the killer and his actions.

Overall, it’s a good read and one I enjoyed reading, despite wanting more thriller aspects added in. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.

THE SERIES CONTINUES WITH THE GIRL WHO FORGOT!

Blurb:
He was my foster brother.
He swore to protect me.
He failed.
They all failed.
I’m an open box of passé photographs, snapped in chaste daylight, but filtered in sepia. I’m the past that he tried to forget, and he was the future I needed. When he left six years ago, I screamed for him every night. But then it all stopped. My screams were suddenly muffled by cruelty, and further coaxed by pain.
But he has come back. He’s not the cute big brother I had a furtive crush on, or the bad boy, rich brat that I hated to love.
He’s the ruthless vice president of Wolf Pack MC, and he doesn’t answer to Royce Kane anymore.
He answers to Sicko.


First off, Amo – I am taking you up on that drink when we meet. WOW!!!

Second, you may have outdone yourself with this one. BRAVO!!

Third, this book will not be for everyone (but I highly urge everyone to read it). It is dark and twisted and a lot to digest. But it’s a fucking amazing book. I am blown away by how this story played out.

Intense. Hauntingly disturbing. Thrilling in multiple ways. Unimaginable. All-encompassing.

Those are just a few of the words that describe this book for me I have read a lot of dark and sinister books in my life. However, this is one that will stand out amongst all the others because of how well developed and well written this book is.

I really have no idea where to begin. I finished this book yesterday and I still can’t stop thinking about this book. Amo – you have left me speechless with this one. This book was so much more than I have ever anticipated.

This book is not for the faint of heart, but it will make you feel empowered by the time you finish it. There was so much that I had not anticipated when I read this book; the emotions, the unexpected ah-ha moments and the plot – WOW!! This book is a journey!! I will not give you one iota of details because you must experience this book without any prior knowledge of what happens.

Royce, AKA Sicko and Jade, AKA Duchess will notch themselves into your heart and soul. Their story is one for the books. It will stay with you long after you finish it and have you feeling as though you truly walked the path of these characters.

This book is edgy, thrilling and sexy all mixed into one dark thriller. You truly do not want to miss out on this one.

About the Author:
Amo Jones is a USA Today & Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author, totally winging this author thing (she’s probably doing it all wrong). She likes cake, loves wine, and her religion is magic (Slytherin). She’s a profound work-a-holic, but when she’s not writing, you can find her chilling with her kids & Husband at the nearest beach, with a cocktail in her hand.
New Zealand is not a state of Australia and rugby is the best sport ever played.

Release Day Blitz…Dead Pretty by Samantha Towle

From New York Times bestselling author Samantha Towle comes a gripping psychological thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat.

I’d once believed that nothing would equal the pain of losing my parents. 

I was wrong.

I had barely even begun to process their deaths when it started.

The love notes, flowers, gifts … all anonymously left on my porch.

Then, I opened my door to a dead bird.

At first, I thought it had died naturally.

I knew that wasn’t the case when I found my neighbor’s cat the next day.

Then, the murders started. 

The victims … women who looked eerily similar to me.

I had a stalker. A murderous one.

And I had no clue who he was. 

He never showed me his face. 

Not even when he carved his final message into me.

I survived that night. But my life was over. It had ended the moment Tobias Ripley’s infatuation with me began.

So, I changed my name and moved away.

Now, I live a life of solitude. I don’t make connections with anyone. 

Until Jack Canti walks into my life with his sharp eyes and easy smiles.

Only Jack isn’t the man he says he is. 

And when the murders start again, I’m left wondering if it’s a copycat. 

Or worse … 

What if Tobias wasn’t the real killer after all … and the murderer has been right here with me all along?

The Wife Stalker by Liv Constantine…ARC Review

The Wife Stalker is here May 19th and is available for pre-order now:

Amazon | B&N | iBooks | Google Play | Goodreads

Synopsis:

Breezing into the tony seaside paradise of Westport, Connecticut, gorgeous thirtysomething Piper Reynard sets down roots, opening a rehab and wellness space and joining a local yacht club. When she meets Leo Drakos, a handsome, successful lawyer, the wedding ring on his finger is the only thing she doesn’t like about him. Yet as Piper well knows, no marriage is permanent.

Meanwhile, Joanna has been waiting patiently for Leo, the charismatic man she fell in love with all those years ago, to re-emerge from the severe depression that has engulfed him. Though she’s thankful when Leo returns to his charming, energetic self, paying attention again to Evie and Stelli, the children they both love beyond measure, Joanna is shocked to discover that it’s not her loving support that’s sparked his renewed happiness—it’s something else.

Piper. Leo has fallen head over heels for the flaky, New Age-y newcomer, and unrepentant and resolute, he’s more than willing to leave Joanna behind, along with everything they’ve built. Of course, he assures her, she can still see the children.

Joanna is devastated—and determined to find something, anything, to use against this woman who has stolen her life and her true love. As she digs deeper into Piper’s past, Joanna begins to unearth disturbing secrets . . . but when she confides to her therapist that she fears for the lives of her ex-husband and children, her concerns are dismissed as paranoia. Can she find the proof she needs in time to save them? 

My review:

A new book from two of my favorite authors? YES, PLEASE!

From the very first chapter of The Wife Stalker, I knew the dynamic writing duo of Liv Constantine had done it again. As soon as I dove into this story, I was on the edge of my seat. The push and pull in emotion I felt between the two central women in the story, Piper and Joanna, didn’t let up and I wasn’t sure who I was pulling for to “get the guy” right up until the very end. But when we finally reached that end? What a doozy it was! One I never saw coming and had me reading the final chapter mouth agape. Talk about a twist! This is a book I will be recommending every chance I can get along with Liv Constantine’s previous two releases.

With twists at every turn and a cast of characters sure to keep you guessing until the very end, this is a must read for fans of any genre!

Thank you, Lynne and Valerie, for another stellar read!

Cover Reveal…Kings of Carrion by Keri Lake

Title: Kings of Carrion

Author: Keri Lake

Cover Design: Okay Creations

Photographer: Andrei Vishnyakov

Release Date: December 3, 2019

Decades have passed since our world was decimated by the Dredge. Some say it was an act of God. Others believe the devil himself breached the gates of hell and turned the masses into the mindless infected with an appetite for carnage.

Those of us who’ve survived the Calico experiments know the only thing more terrifying than the monsters that seek to ravage what’s left of us, are the men who created them. Ones too capable of hiding their true form, and burying their darkest secrets.

Somewhere beneath the facility lies the answers, a cure for our suffering. To reach it, we’ll have to open the haunting tomb, where man’s deadliest mistakes, the most violent mutations, lie trapped within its tunnels, waiting to be set free. 

Our only hope in surviving them are the very Alphas who were designed to hunt us down. The titans forged by cruelty and pain. 

Kings of carrion.

We taught them to love, and in turn, they vow to protect us. To deliver the cure for humanity’s sake. Except this world doesn’t give without taking, and any chance of saving us will require the greatest sacrifice of all.

Review…Revenge (Red Ledger 7-9) by Meredith Wild

Revenge: The Red Ledger Series (Vol 3)

by Meredith Wild 
Release Date: 3rd September
Genre: Suspense/thriller
 

The Red Ledger, a binge-worthy suspense/thriller series with Wild’s
signature erotic twist

Thrilling, suspenseful and heart-stopping!” ~NYT Bestseller Alessandra Torre


A seamlessly woven story of renewed love, faith restored, and redefining oneself without a past for perspective.” ~Angel Payne, USA Today Bestselling Author


Synopsis

This could be our last chance…

Time is running out to right this wrong. With Tristan gone, everything is out of place. My family is fractured. My freedom is in question. Our future has never been more perilous. The only way back together is to find the man who’s set us on this path. The mastermind. The heartless architect of a plan so elaborate and diabolical, even Tristan couldn’t look the other way.

We’ve come too far to turn back now. We’ve lost too much to give up this fight.

But in our quest for justice, Tristan’s heart seems set on revenge. When it comes to a mission, he’s always focused. Always ready. This is different. His thirst for Simon’s demise threatens to cloud the instincts that have kept us alive all this time. And this could be our last chance…

Revenge (Parts 7 thru 9) are definitely more plot and suspense building than action but it’s just as gripping as the rest of the story.

We see Tristan and Isabel go from Boston to Paris, France back to Washington, D.C. in these three parts. They are slowly piecing together bits and pieces of information they are given. And each time when they think they are finally getting somewhere, there is another twist throw into the mix.

As much as I wanted more action, I truly enjoyed the intensity of this plot. I was completely drawn into all the ins and outs of who was in the Company, who was behind everything along with how they were able to have their hands into so many things and get away with so much.

I won’t say much more. I have thoroughly enjoyed this series and really, really hope there is more to come (that ending truly left it open for more).

Bravo, Meredith. This series will definitely pull romance lovers over to romantic suspense.
