5 Plus Stars Gianna's life so far has not been about hearts and roses or love. Contracted into a marriage to a man old enough to be her father she has put up this shield and gives everyone a façade of the real girl underneath the crazy clothes and outrageous behaviour. Christian Allister see's beneath that front she puts on, he knows everything about Gianna. But this is game for him a game for her, he doesn't do relationships and she's not even his type. And for Gianna she's married. But Christian can't stop, he's obsessed and he's totally unprepared.
Love love love. Couldn’t put this down. Who is this author? Danielle Lori I love her characters, the women are quick witted and the men just oozing with alpha testosterone.
Kimberley Chambers is one of those unique writers that can make dysfunctional families addictive reading. Then to put not one but two families into one story was always going to be very interesting to say the least but wow did she pull it off.
Backstabber is the Mitchells and the Butlers story. It pretty much follows through from Tainted Love, which was a big 6 Star read last year for me. Vinny Butler and Eddie Mitchell have now gone into business together. When strange packages start turning up neither are sure which one of them they are meant for. But one thing is for sure the past is about to catch up with them.
Vinny oh Vinny ....... is over the moon to be working alongside Eddie. Vinny is now aged 56 and life is looking good and certainly on the up, new club and at last he has met the one woman who might just be someone he wants to settle down with.

Eddie Mitchell After his feud with the O'Hara's and his grandchildren safety home, life is looking up for him too, but could his partnership with Vinny put all that in jeopardy.
Michael Butler is Vinny's younger brother. Family is everything to the Butlers and Mitchells and Michael knows this. But he is starting to take another look at his life but then he witnesses something that will change everything regarding the family.
[image]
There are so many fantastic characters in this book all playing a huge part to bring this story to a conclusion and believe me I was on the edge of my seat trying to catch my breath at times. Twist after twist, each chapter leaving you unable to put the book down. It does have a darker tone coming through at times and I did cringe at one part but I totally understand why, as we need to be reminded how dangerous these men are.
[image]
But there were still laugh out loud moments and by the way Queenie has a new friend.
[image]
Can this be read as a standalone? She does recap on the other books throughout this book but I do believe you should read the series of the Butlers and the Mitchells to really enjoy the climax.
The Butlers The Trap Payback The Wronged Tainted Love
The Mitchells The Feud The Traitor The Victim
As for the series of both the Mitchells and the Butlers it's been one of the best series I have read. And as this series now comes to the end I can't wait to see what her next book will bring.
Any TV producers out there, pick this up asap please.
Where do I start, fans of Kimberley Chambers will love this and I firmly believe this could be her best book yet. You do need to read the first 3 in this series in my opinion to fully experience this story..
The Trap Payback The Wronged
Vinnie Butler psychopath, sexy but scary as hell, his brother and family are everything to him.
Michael Butler is happy but how long until the truth is revealed.

"‘Is my daddy famous, Nan?’ Ava enquired innocently. Queenie couldn’t help but smile. ‘Yes, darlin’. Your daddy is a legend.’"
Queenie and Viv would have me laughing out loud.. "‘Any man who tried to put his todger near me would get it hacked off immediately. Unless it was Eddie Mitchell "
[image]
Yes Eddie Mitchell fans he's back
The Butlers are crazy, I mean crazy and as I've said previously they really have no redeeming qualities but I love the way the author tells their story. This must be made into a tv series one day. Most of the book I was like ....

I’m so happy MS is writing again and ZZ story is on its way.
I've waited to try and put a few lines together as this book has been on my mind all day. Along with many others I've waited patiently for Damon Preachers Fox story. And it didn't disappoint, in fact it totally consumed me from start to finish. I wasn't surprised, this author can write. Even with a different feel than her others in the Undeniable series it was up there once again but taking it to a new level.
There aren't alot of books that leave me with this feeling of being swallowed up and taken in by a story of a love between two people. Preachers and Debbies story was a story to be told and by God did Madeline Sheehan tell it. And the tears fell..... but I could still also feel this tremendous warm feeling as the story unfolded. Eva, Deuce and many others play a part but the stars were a couple whose love slowly unfolded and stayed till the end.
I'd admired her from a distance, never speaking or doing anything to draw attention to myself.
Each day that I spent watching her in this room, I noticed how her eyes would flick up to me. She was weary of me - frightened - and she had reason to be.
Allow me to introduce myself…
My name is Holland Strong and at 21 years old, I'm the youngest Master within a society of wealthy and influential men.
Claire Elliot is my psychology professor in college - that is, at least, until I make her my first courtesan.
She believes she knows everything about how the mind works…
…and I believe I can prove her wrong
My Thoughts Where do I start?
First of all in my opinion you do need to read Her Masters Courtesan as characters from the first book play a major role in this story,
I honestly loved Holland we try and delve into his mind to see what makes him tick, what he's really about, who he is... Don't be taken in by his smile, his boyish charm...
Claire is fantastic, maybe this time the Masters have bitten off more than they can chew...
As most of us who have read or know of Lily Whites books, they are dark.... engrossing and with this particular one I felt apprehensive and intrigued at the same time. They don't always end with a HEA this one certainly blew me away....
I just hope there are more still to come from this series and we get to meet more Masters sometime in the future..
This book hit me hard...Beautiful, emotional this is Kristen Ashley back to her best. There are so many amazing reviews out there for this story so I will just give you my thoughts best I can.
Almost from the first page I was consumed by this wonderful story. Sometimes when you read a book it gives such a feeling that its almost too hard to put into words.
Josie returns home to attend her Grandmothers funeral. She stands alone but she feels the presence of a man watching her. Jake is there with his children..
Later Josie attends the reading of her Grandmothers will, the only real family she had left. And her grandmother has made a very special request.
Yes Josie's grandmother has bequeath Jake to her.
“My most precious possession, the thing I treasure above anything else in this world, that being my granddaughter, Josephine Diana Malone, I hereby bequeath to James Markham Spear
She gives off the sweetest light that will ever shine on you. I’m trusting you, my Jake, in my absence, to take good care of her. But even saying that, I know you will…
The Will is up there with the best of KA. Josie was different, the way she acted the way she spoke. I liked that, even though it did take a while to get used to her. The letters she wrote to her Grandmother were so heartfelt and emotional but it explains as why she is like she is.
Jake, he really is a true gentlemen, in true KA style alpha and perfect...I loved him
His children brought another element to the story which to me made it all the more perfect.
And Lavender House....how I would love to live there..
This is a book I will read again, it will stay with me for a long time and thats why I'm giving a well deserved 6 Stars...

My man is going to be strong and tall and handsome and smart and protective and fierce, so very FIERCE, and wonderful and he’s going to adore me.

My Thoughts I thought it was nothing short of brilliant..loved all the characters. It sucked me in from the very start to the last page and at times I was literally holding my breath and not even realising I was doing so.

I loved how the story got darker the more the truth came out..

Phil Martin is a new author and I have to say that this trilogy of books is up there with my favourites and I look forward to reading more from this talented author..
Warning!!! This book may not be for everyone If you are easily offended by cutting, heavy drug use, then this may not be for you..

I have to say this was for me the most intense book I have read to date. It tells the story of Bella and Edward and their friends Jasper and Alice. How things that happen in your life can change the course that you decide to take.
Bella and Edward are school sweethearts both from privileged backgrounds, along with Jasper, they all have an incredible bond. Alice is Bella's best friend and and has the love of Jasper. They all have family issues, some worse than others that effect them deeply.
Edwards relationship with Bella is claustrophobic... "I live for her and I love her, breathe for her, I die slowly every single fucking day for her" He feels suffocated by it. He loves Bella so much that he will never leave her...
Bella can't let him leave with her own insecurity she uses her own addiction to keep him." The labels are written all over me. Attention seeker, user, manipulator, and pathetic. Crazy fucking bitch should be added too"
Jasper...beautiful Jasper , so very broken but so likeable, his story affected me the most.... His POV gave me one of the most heartfelt emotions ever. And Alice loves him so much... but he struggles to tell her how much he loves her too.
This story is about addictions of all kinds but its so much more. What I write here can never do this story the justice it deserves. The writing is so real, so heartbreaking, there is no Disney here.
But it is also beautiful, uplifting and it has helped me understand the subject more.

This amazing written story is about 2 young people and their friends. Its about LOVE Consuming, addictive love, secret love... Its about Isabella and Edwards love... "Tell me a secret I whisper in his ear"...."I LOVE YOU" he says
Love?
Love is so fucking corrupt.
Love is lying and tricking. Love is hard work. Love is suffocating and using. It’s head-fucking and soul-ruining. It’s apprehensive and back-stabbing. It’s passionate. It’s chilling. It’s smile-giving, but neck-breaking. It’s not worth it. It’s so fucking worth it. It’s everything I thought it was, and everything I thought it wasn’t.
Love is guilty. Love is escaping. Love is sunny-side eggs and candy-corn. It’s late night phone calls and stealing time. It’s keeping calm. It’s livid. Love is unresisting. Love is in the little girl with the yellow popsicle. Love is watching the fireworks in her eyes. Love is holding hands under the blankets and having something to look forward to. Love is belonging. Love is no longer belonging to yourself. Love is fighting a losing battle. Love is a secret. Love is untruth. Love is two years younger, but a million times older.
Love is at my house, ignoring my unease.
Love has ruined everything, but made it so much better.
Love is a blissful wonder.
Love is a strawberry-blonde, liar, tease-baby, princess-girl, torture. She has it all wrong. She should have picked up. If she cared, she would have. Love would have answered.
Love has the best of me.
Love is always supposed to understand.
Love is supposed to be effortless.
Love is supposed to be loyal.
Love is always supposed to answer.
But Love is love’s traitor.
When Isabella's family move to a new town and she starts a new school, she meets Alice who becomes her new very best friend. Alice has an older brother Edward he's 13 and whilst Bella is 11 she is captivated by him. As the years go by, Bella becomes more involved with Alice's family. Her parents are protective, suffocating where Alice's are open, more care free. Whilst staying one night at Alice's she sees Edward is still awake watching TV in his bedroom, she asks if she can join him..here on.. things will never be the same. "My age may be thirteen but my heart is one hundred years old. From this I will never recover. Ever. I just grew up."

But love is never that simple...... Its passionate and raw, heartbreaking and exhausting

Nothing I write can do this story the justice it deserves. The authors writing is brilliant almost poetic at times. It is fanfiction. I don't care. The writing says it all. The names Bella and Edward, Dusty and Bliss they are just names it could be anyone. It reminds me of how painful first love can be.

Well this was one of them. There was so much going on in this story that I struggled to put it down. It was a fun and sexy with a plot line that kept you guessing till the end
I'm keeping this review short and sweet Ally I just loved her, she had a smart mouth and was funny, sexy and had me laughing out aloud with her quirky personality. Casper He gave me some of the hottest sex scenes I'd read for a while. Casper had been down on his luck but meeting Ally was going to change that.
With all the books around at the moment with the same stories and plots, this made a welcome change
