Review: Iron Crowne by CD Reiss


IRON CROWNE
Olivia Monroe really, really dislikes Byron Crowne. And why shouldn't she? He's the epitome of everything she despises, using his wealth and charm to steamroll past environmental and city regulations just so he can own everything in sight. She didn't count on her body reacting so viscerally to him in person, though, and it's a problem. She can't be attracted to the man she's suing, can she?

When it becomes obvious that she simply can't resist the gorgeous asshole, though, and he can be a means to an end, she takes him up on his brand of dominance and pleasure. After all, it will get her what she wants, so why shouldn't she spend some time rolling around in the sheets with him?

But we all know that pleasure, whether it comes with a hefty dose of pain and dominance like Byron does, often times comes with feelings. Pesky little feelings. Feelings that it seems he might not reciprocate. So Olivia has a choice: stick with the plan or walk away and fulfill her dream on her own.

Iron Crowne is hot. Really hot. I can't say I liked either Byron or Olivia that much, hence the 4 rather than 5 stars, but I liked the story itself and found everything else in this world intriguing. From Byron's brokenness to Olivia's sass that hides her own brokenness, down to Byron's family. All very fascinating stuff. I will definitely be on the lookout for more in what I hope will be a series.

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...
