My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Excellent excellent book. Forbidden / enemy to lover is absolutely exceptional in this book. What would you do when captured by a stunningly gorgeous man, threatened to be sexually taken as repayment for a debt your brother obtained. Struggle as you might mentally but your body is a fierce traitor. But there’s something odd underneath the fear and underneath his the need to conquer could there be more.
Page turning book that left me breathless and needing more

4.5 stars
There are warnings for trigger content so make sure to read that before reading this story.
A King So Savage is just the change of pace I needed. It is the first book in The Savage Duet. There is nothing better than a captivating dark romance that is gritty, raw, bloody, and deadly.
King is an alpha male. He is a little dark, passionate, possessive, obsessive, dangerous and knows what he likes and gets what he wants. She is nothing more than repayment or so he says but in reality, she is his and won’t let her go.
Ava is beautiful and strong, and she is nobody’s pawn. She should be scared of him but something about him draws her in.
Together they are hot, and sparks fly. I saw her. I wanted her. I took her.
It is a compelling romance tale that at times was a little predictable but with angst, drama, emotion, secrets, danger, secrets, danger, and more.
If you like an intense, dominant, possessive, utterly irresistible man who loves just as fiercely as he lives then you will love this book.

This book is a dark and intense romance story. It comes with a few trigger warnings but, if you are OK with them, the story is fantastic. I was pulled straight into this book and was consumed by Ava and King. Whether they love or have one another, their chemistry and connection is undeniable. The more I read about them, the more I wanted to read.
I loved everything about the story line as well. It didn’t shy away from the dark themes and handle them with ease. This is a brilliant story and a great start to this duet.

Ava is in a predicament due to no fault of her own. As luck will have it her brother owes King a lot of money. So King has her kidnapped to do with her whatever he pleases. Her brother is no saint so she knows she has to use her own wits to get herself out of this mess. I highly recommend this book. And can’t wait to read more from this author.

This is a fantastic story. I realize that the author is new to this genre. I think she has done a great job with this dark mafia story. Ava finds herself stuck with King because her brother is a jerk and left her with his debts. I enjoyed the chemistry and verbal foreplay as they grew into this relationship. It did have its dark moments but those sparks flew. I found the story had just the right amount of suspense. The romance, steamy and not, was off the charts. I was in it from the beginning all the way to the end. This is a book that I definitely recommend if you are a mafia romance lover.

I saw her.

I wanted her.

I took her.

The money is just an excuse. Her brother’s debt? A convenient justification for my obsession. She’s been mine since the day I laid eyes on her.

Taking her captive stirs up a storm. Her depraved brother wants her back. My own half-brother is determined to snatch my kingdom from me, and my men lust after the woman I’ve stolen. And she looks at me with reluctant, angry desire every time I touch her.

And I touch her every chance I get. She’s so bright and shiny—a pretty toy I can break and put back together again and again. She may be my prisoner, but she’s got my black heart locked up tight.

Well, I won’t need that useless lump of muscle and tissue if I lose her. I won’t need anything except the blood of our enemies dripping from my hands. I’ll rip the heart out of any man who dares hurt her and place it at her feet.

Crush~Conquer~Protect

When it comes to my wicked little lamb, my personal motto means everything.

I’m Kingston Vaughn Winter.

And Ava Bella Blue is mine.

💗💗💗 ➹ BOOK SPOTLIGHT SHOWCASE ➹💗💗💗
Whispered Surrender (Sinful Duets Book 1) by Via Mari
Genre – Dark Romance
Page Count – 402
Cover Designer – Silla Webb
Synopsis –
Jay and Sasha:
I’ve never once protected someone outside of the job, or felt compelled to do anything of the kind, until Sasha.
Those beautiful hazy-filled eyes watch me with interest, suspicion, and longing, but something else too. An emotion that stirs a deep-seated need to control as though she were put on earth just for me.
The hot-headed Russian may be graceful for the public but is sharp-edged and deliciously sinful when not on stage.
When Sasha falls on the wrong side of the mafia, keeping her safe is not a question, but there’s much more at stake than danger in this power game we play.
I want to peel away the older layers she uses to protect her heart and replace it with a fiery ring that will protect her from anything and everything in this forbidden game of love and war.
My reputation and name are whispered on the lips of our enemies for a reason. I dare anyone, even the most notorious of crime families, to stand in the way of me claiming my wayward angel.
Matt and Marenah:
The last thing I expect to find when on an undercover assignment is an innocent blonde with sky blue eyes who makes my heart pound with excitement and blood race with an intensity that I’ve never felt before.
But the granddaughter of the head of the Russian Bratva is not who she appears to be. Not even her family knows her life’s passion, where she goes when she’s not with them, or the secrets that she keeps.
I’ve earned the reputation of one of the most fearless and ruthless protectors in the business for a reason. I’m not about to let any crime family come between me and the woman I want.
When secrets are revealed, I will protect, tame, and make the innocent and off limit mafia princess mine.
Even if the fearless beauty’s good intentions may be the demise of us all.
Whispered Surrender is the bundled collection of Wayward and Undercover. It is the first in a sinfully delicious collection of duets by International Best-Selling Author Via Mari. You will fall in love with these two fearless women who capture the hearts of the men who will do anything to protect them, even from themselves.
You will love these novels where the passion is fiery, the loyalty is fierce, and the stakes are high. Each story and couple have a guaranteed happily ever after.
Via Mari is a contemporary romantic suspense author who likes to keep her readers on the edge of their seats one minute and fanning themselves as the heat rises in the next.

Sea of Demons (Blood and Sand Book 3) by Heidi Stark is a great dark romance series

This was not how he had anticipated his life to unfold. Yet, he is now surrounded by the four guys of his fantasies. However, there’s a menace that is drawing nearer. He’d nearly killed him once. Angel’s crazed stalker has vanished. However, their existence is now much more threatened. He’s powerful. He is lethal. However, they are also.

Every page had you hanging on every sentence and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. It is a very unique story with even compelling people. The story really transports you into this world. I couldn’t put the book down

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I fell in love with this book quickly and never looked back. Although I started with this book because I didn’t pay attention to the fact that it was a series, I HIGHLY recommend reading from the beginning. It took me a little while to get into the groove because I didn’t have the proper backstory which is my own fault. I’ve picked up the previous books now and fully intend to read in the correct order. With that mistake aside, this was an absolutely riveting read! It is dark but addicting, and the author put trigger warnings so that readers may go in without walking on eggshells, so to speak. There are also plenty of scenes that are dangerous, intense, and very steamy as it is a spicy reverse harem. I really enjoy that there is a great amount of sultry scenes throughout this book, but the author has created a marvelous storyline that doesn’t rely on the sensuality alone. Reading about Angel, Devon, the snakes, and the Brixton guys will have you at the edge of your seat for a myriad of reasons, so don’t pass this one up!

Man this author can write one heck of a reverse harem that has you on the edge of your seat and not just because of the steam!
So many reverse harems lose their characters and the plot too busy with sexy time but she balances this so well and it’s so engaging.

Two reverse harem relationships go from enemies to Allies while taking out an extremely dark mutual enemy related to Devon.

I don’t want to spoil what happens for you but this book will have your heart pounding (for multiple reasons ;)) and you laughing at witty banter and marveling at the way human nature can be shaped and changed so quickly.

Absolute 5 stars and a can’t miss! I do reccomend the other books first and PLEASE read the trigger warnings if there are topics you are sensitive about she is quite open about the topics in the book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sea of Demons is Book Three in the Blood and Sand Series. This would be the Fifth Book in the series because the Second Book in the series was previously sold separately under three different titles but has since been combined and released under one single title. Sea of Demons is a dark romance with drama, suspense, intrigue, action, danger, murder, mayhem, violence, passion, chemistry, and complicated family dynamics. As the first book that I have read in this series I wish that I had started with the previous books to gain a better understanding of the characters and their backstories. The storyline focuses on the character of Devon who is confronting her abusive father who sold her to pay off debts he had incurred. She was rescued by four brothers who would do anything for her and will go to great lengths to protect her. Each brother is deeply in love with Devon, and she is in a unique relationship with each of the four brothers. After exacting revenge on her father for his atrocities they decide to deal with the man that bought Devon. However, things do not go as planned and their lives are in danger at every turn. This book was action packed and full of twists and turns that kept me hooked until the end. The characters were intriguing, unique, and engaging. Each was smart, tough, brave, and not afraid to confront danger as it came at them. The reverse harem aspect with Devon and the four brothers was unique and it was interesting to read the dynamics between her and each of the brothers. Overall, a great read with some spicy scenes, tense moments, an intriguing storyline.

I won’t lie that starting this book without reading the previous ones was a bit hard. As you don’t know much about Devon or Angel and the other characters. I did find it hard to put down and thrilling. I was looking forward to reading the next one and will be reading the previous ones just so I can learn more about the characters before I finish the series. I definitely recommend to those who love the type of book that keeps you on the edge of your seat and ready for more!

First up I have to say that I messed up! This book is later in the series and while I did really enj0y this book, I do feel my reading experience was hampered a little by my silliness of not starting at the very beginning. I will definitely be going back to the very start to read the whole series. Don’t make my mistake!
Another reason for being sure to read all that you can of this Mafia dark romance series is the Amazing authors talented writing and ability to draw you into the lives of the people she has created. You will be completely captivated from start to finish! It is filled with action, danger, violence and plenty of twists and turns. Be very sure to read warnings before starting as some readers may be triggered by some content. This author is now on my must read list for sure!!

This is book 5 of the Blood and Sand series. I wasn’t aware of this before I started reading so I was a little disappointed, however the author recaps quite well so the story still flows and is understandable. That being said i will be heading back to the beginning and reading the series from the start because I loved this story so much. This book had everything I love from a dark Mafia Romance. It had the hot, protective, dangerous men who will stop at nothing to protect the woman they love, danger around every corner and the constant fight to protect what is theirs.
Once thing I will just say which the author makes you aware of at the start of the story is there are some topics which may trigger some readers and also the fact that some steamy scenes and violence scenes are written in graphic detail. For me personally this wasn’t an issue and made me feel more like i was present at the time of these occurrences however for some reader they maybe too graphic or triggering.
This is a reverse harem story around Devon and her men and Angel and her men. With Devon’s father taken care of Devon hope she can move on with her life with the support of her men. However that isn’t going to be so easy. As they plan to take revenge against the man who brought Devon (full story in pervious books) things don’t go the plan and it puts her in more danger than she was before.
Angel and her guys feel they are finally free of the stalker that was a risk to Angel( previous book), but now with joining forced with Devon and her guys they have found themselves with a new enemy.
This story is full of Suspense, danger, emotion, intensity, love and passion. I couldn’t put this book down and i fell in love with every character. I can’t wait to head to the beginning of this series and get to know every character in a more complete way.

Sea of Demons (Blood and Sand Book 5) by Heidi Stark. This is the 5th book in the Blood and Sand Book series and I highly recommend reading them in order. I did not and I was a little bit confused. Its a reverse harem with Devon being the female who seems to be living the dream. Devon has a crazy stalker and she knows that he is gone for now but will be back soon. She decides that she will take him down before he gets to her. Will they be able to get to Tane before he gets to her. I enjoyed this book very much but will go back and read the others. Its a fast paced read that will make you not want to put it down. It does have some trigger storylines so beware. This is a mafia/gang story with rough sex, violence and danger.

This is the first time I’m picking up a book by this author, Heidi Stark. I gotta say even though i was slightly confused with the characters ( because i picked it up on this book not the first ones lol oops 😂 I would definitely follow her warning at the beginning of the synopsis. Where she said that you should read the previous books in the series to get to know Devon, Angel, the snakes and the Brixton guys better to understand this one) but it was still an extremely good read. Having gotten into reading mafia books lately, I found this super intriguing. This book does contain DARK CONTENT( such as graphic violence, sex scenes and references to abuse/assault) which can trigger some readers. The suspense in this book will have you on the edge of your seat. It also has some steamy scenes too 😉.I will be going back and read them now i gotta know how it started 🥰
I really recommend reading this book ( if you like dark romance book)
Ps It is also reverse harem 🥰

*TRIGGER WARNING* BOOK CONTAINS DARK CONTENT: references to abuse/assault and graphic violence and sex scenes
Now, if trigger warnings don’t concern you, then grad this book RIGHT NOW! But only if you’ve read the other 4 that come before it. This is not a standalone and you will need to read the other books in the series to fully understand and appreciate the characters and plot line. This is a reverse harem, mafia/gang, dark romance, suspense book. It’s action packed (in more ways that one ;)) and will have you on the edge of your seat. I absolutely loved Angel and her men and the dark, twisted situations they get into. Stark has outdone herself with this one!

This is not the first book in the series and it does continue on from book to book. I highly suggest reading the first couple books in the series, as it will bring more depth into this book. I didn’t read the other books first and I am wishing that I did. I will go back and read them now because I need to understand the character development and the depth of the story line. This is a dark romance and it does not let you down in that genre. It is also reverse harem with many twists and turns. If you haven’t read the first couple books, y0u will be able to keep up with this but there are already relationships that have been formed that I feel have been covered with their stories in the previous books. That said, I was not lost reading this book and it was an amazing read. It as quick because I couldn’t put it down. There is depth to the plot line that sometimes doesn’t happen with reverse harems because the emphasis is put more on the steam. This book has plenty of steam but it isn’t the driving factor of this book. Well, it wasn’t for me. I highly suggest reading this book and the whole series because if the other books are like this one, I know I won’t be disappointed at all.

She finally can get her chance at revenge on the guy her dad sold her to, but she has to stay on the down low. If they caught her she would never make it out of that world again.

This was a good 4 star read. Reverse harem is a favorite genre of mine and this series definitely fills that bucket for me. This is the 5th book in the series. We get action, hot sexy scenes, violence and so much more. I like the multiple POV so you can see what others are thinking. I really like all the characters, they add a great element to the story. There were many twists and turns that had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was next. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. You can read as a stand alone but I suggest starting from the beginning. I will warn that there are some things that could be triggers for some. If you are looking for a good dark, reverse harem this is the series for you. I look forward to reading more from this author and series. 1-click and get started today.

This is a reverse harem book featuring Devon and her men, Angel and her men. Devon’s come to terms with what her father has done, her boyfriends have her back in every way but they are also concerned on how she will handle him being gone. Now the plan is to exact revenge on the man who bought her. Everything does not go according to plans though and they are in more danger than ever.

This story vacillates from the different POV of many of the characters. This is number five in the series and I had not read the previous books. The relationships for Devon and Angel are established already but I felt like there was enough of a recap to get a full idea of what happened before with the two main characters. Dark romance that pulled me in, I will definitely be going back to read the other stories.

Another great book by Heidi Stark. Warning: this book includes graphic violence and sex scenes, and references of abuse/assault that some readers may experience as triggering.
I do recommend reading the other books prior to this one just to clarify some of the back story line. This is another dark romantic book complete with suspense… with danger, dramatic developments, tension, raw and gritty details, violence, murder, action, chemistry, sexiness, emotion, and intensity. Angel and her gang are back for another suspense story. Once you start it you can’t put it down because you need to know how it’s going to end, one of the best books I’ve read in this series so far.

First things first I would like to say that this is the 5th book in the Blood and Sand series and it shows. The synopsis did make it seem like you would be ok to read this as a standalone but I feel like I would have been better informed to what is going on and better introduced to the characters if I had read the previous books. I suggest reading the previous books before you read this one.

The book starts off with Devon confronting her father for how he treated her when she was younger. Now that she is in a loving relationship with her 4 boyfriends, she feels strong enough to be able to do this. Her father sold her like she was nothing.

Now Devon and the crowd have a chance to get revenge on the man her father sold her to, she just had to play it safe and get intel without getting caught. If she is caught, no way would she make it out alive this time.

The book alternates between different characters point of view which made it really difficult for me to follow along since this was the first book in the series which I have read. From what I did read though, I liked the plot. I also liked how even though both sets of groups were a relationship of 5, each had their own personality and their own relationship with the woman. Sometimes it was one on one, sometimes more. The men had depth to them which was nice instead of the same old stock characters a lot of reverse harem books take on. The only thing I did not like though was for a reverse harem, I would have expected more romance and less vulgar talking. To each their own.

It will definitely keep you engaged if you are interested in dark romance books. I found that it has a couple of triggers so please read book overview before committing to reading it. I personally enjoyed reading the story and recommend this saga to anybody who will not be affected by the triggers.
