Love & Asylums
The Fabric of Our Souls very literally destroyed me and my masochistic little heart ate it up and begged for more. This book isn’t intended for those for the faint of heart. This read left my heart hurting, my eyes wet, and a yearning for a love like these three had.

Spain & The Slowest Burn
A Spanish Love Deception was most definitely another BookTok deception. I feel betrayed, bamboozled, and hoodwinked. I don’t mind a fluffy cozy romance, but for the love of all things good and sinful, THIS IS NOT A SPICY NOVEL TF. If I wasn’t misled, I’d have given a better rating.

Sea Captains & Denounced Heiresses
I feel as if no one on BookTok has actually read a spicy novel because this WASN’T SPICY! Stop staying these cozy ass books (I’m talking to you, Icebreaker) are spicy. It’s like recommending How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days and saying it’s like Fifty Shades of Grey.

Luxury Trips & An Unwanted Stalker
Twisted Lies was a great conclusion to the series and a great intro to Huang’s new series, Kings of Sin. Christian and Stella’s love story was a great read. I enjoyed learning about their traumas and how they overcame everything for one another. Can’t wait to read King of Wrath!
-

Hate & Theft
I enjoyed Twisted Hate. The spicy scenes were top-tier. I also enjoyed that Huang didn’t end the book with the heroine and the hero getting married. They were together, but they both decided to take it slow. It was a nice change. 5/5 would recommend to those who love enemies-to-lovers.

Dark Fantasies & Masked Men
Since this was only a 122-page book, Scream For Us didn’t have a tremendous amount of character development. We get a little more background on Quinn and her past, mainly because we’re in her head, but almost nothing about the guys. The plot was pretty much straight smut. 5/5 recommend.
-

Icy Banter & Liquid Courage
I enjoyed Hannah Grace’s Icebreaker. Very fluffy. The one issue I had was that this book definitely could’ve been 100 pages shorter. There were quite a few filler chapters and scenes that didn’t contribute much to the plot. Maybe a little too much on the character development. 4/5 would recommend.

Love & Second Chances
Molly O’Keefe’s The Tycoon follows Veronica King, a twenty-eight-year-old woman, whose father just passed away, leaving her with nothing. Daughter of the CEO of King Industries, Veronica was engaged to be married five years prior, until the night before her wedding, when she discovered her fiancé was only marrying her for money.

All Bruises, Covered in Makeup
Aleatha Romig’s book, Consequences, followed a twenty-six-year-old woman named Claire who recently lost her job as a meteorologist and was struggling with debt. After she found work as a bartender, she met a mysterious man named Anthony, who coaxed her into joining him for dinner after her shift.

Is Too Much Sex Ever Too Much?
I rarely rate books less than 4 stars, so this is an anomaly for me. Loving anything that is based on Beauty and the Beast, I was disappointed with the way things turned out in this book. There were a lot of plot holes, and the book was very rushed.
