Scandalously Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 Stars

Scandalously Yours is the fifth book in the Titans of Manhattan series by Anise Storm. This is another wonderful instalment in the Titan’s series. As with the others, this is a contemporary romance with an office/workplace romance aspect, taboo relationship (he’s her boss), medical romance, chemistry, sparks, sizzle, angst, agendas, danger, scandal, tension, complexity, greed, emotion, secrets, manipulation, pain, heartache, meddling ex, and finding love unexpectedly.
After meeting Kristopher previously and not liking him much after finding out about the nasty part he played in Kenzie and Jonas’s story (in the last instalment), I went into this story with a bit of a heavy heart as I was convinced that I was never going to like Kris no matter what happened. Well, I admit now that I was wrong. He won me over, surprisingly- and I am so relieved that I don’t have to hate him, or this book lol.
As expected from Ms. Anise, the story was quite emotional and heart-wrenching at times- I really felt for both the characters and what they were going through. There were times though that I really wanted to shake them both for their lack of communication- so frustrating. Some of the subject-matter could be considered triggers for some readers, such the toxic relationship between Kris and his ex, her emotional manipulation and blackmail- using the children as pawns in trying to control Kris and the situation (I hated her with such a passion, and would have loved to have throttled her for what she did- she was such a *&^%$@$ <@~^?). There were also some intimate scenes that made me cringe a little, as all I kept thinking was that there was a huge potential for a vaginal infection (ie: I’m not against anal play, but going from backdoor to frontdoor and back again was a no from me lol… I kept thinking noooooo. But that is just my personal opinion, where I learned that you never go from the back door to the front door, as it is very unhygienic and can lead to serious infection in the lady garden- but again, that’s just my opinion. If you don’t mind then that’s fine too)…
I can’t wait for the Titans of Chicago series to arrive- so excited to see what those books will hold!
Happy reading!

Thank you, Anise Storm!
