Review of Violent Ends (White Monarch Book 2) by Jessica Hawkins


VIOLENT ENDS (WHITE MONARCH BOOK 2)


HOLY MOTHER F-IN!! That cliffhanger is a clusterfuck of a doozy. Damn...

OK, now that I've gotten that out of the way, I'll get to my brief review. I am going brief on this one because I really don't want to give anything away. I'll just say that this second part of The White Monarch series was not what I expected. I expected more of what I got in book 1 - lots of action, more of Natalia hating Cristiano and pining over Diego, and her plotting on how to get back to him. What actually happened was a bit more emotional, more slow burn, but even more delicious, and this time I FELL IN LOVE WITH CRISTIANO!!


And then of course, that freakin cliffhanger, and now I'm even more anxious than I was after the end of Violent Delights. I LOVE this second part of Natalia and Cristiano's story. She grows quite a bit, starts questioning things she had believed most of her life, she starts thinking of her husband in a way she had never allowed herself to before, and I definitely liked her a lot more. And Cristiano - whew, he was an alpha at his best! Strong, commanding, and possessive of his woman. I cannot wait fore Violent Triumphs so I can finally get more of these two as a happily-in-love, united couple. At least, I HOPE that's what will happen!

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
