Sold to the Highest Bidder by Aleatha Romig and Skye Warren:
Can I tell you how much I’m in need of more already? I really loved this story and I ready to read a full length novel of Cameron and Briana. I want to know more about their relationship both before and after this story.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Stalker by A. Jade and A. Zavarelli:
I love a good stalker romance and this didn’t disappoint one bit. Zander and Violet are very interesting and have great chemistry. This was an all consuming, hot, heart pounding read.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Poisoned Hearts by Parker S. Huntington and Giana Darling:
I had the privilege to read this story before it was put in this anthology so it was nice being able to read it again. I loved everything about Frankie and Liliana’s love. It’s a force you don’t want to mess with, the chemistry radiates off the pages and filled with twists and turns. Loved it!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mr. Foster by K. Webster and Sam Mariano
Yes, yes, yes! I love a fantastic, forbidden, age gap. This was such a great dreamy and delicious read. I loved everything about it. I seriously couldn’t get enough! It was short, sweet and oh so good!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Not a Dirty Little Secret by Giana Darling and Sierra Simone
A forbidden, age gap MM romance? Yes please! I love that both Giana and Sierra wrote this dark and dangerous story. It was emotional, taboo, sweet and very sexy!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Overall, I loved this collection! If you love to read dark, dangerous, and forbidden stories that make your insides churn this is going to be something you should pick up. I loved everything about this collection. It was such a great collection for anyone who loves dark romance.

Buckle up guys, this is going to be a long ride.
I’d give the book as a whole, 3 stars. There are some stories that I didn’t like, they were slightly repetitive and something that have been done before millions of times. I really was excited for this book because it has my favorite authors—Pepper Winters, Lylah James, Cora Reilly, Giana Darling and Ashley Jade. So many amazing authors.
Imagine my disappointment when I read this. But, thankfully, some of these authors rescued the situation before it went downhill.
Let me just clarify that I’ll be talking just about this one story in detail, because, it was really my favorite and when I found out that there might not be a book for these two... I was close to crying. And let me tell you, if their book someday happens, I call dibs on Cas and Saffron, yeah? They’re mine. Only mine.

I really enjoyed this anthology and I liked all of the stories. The writing style for every story was amazing and I loved to see different characters and scenarios in one book.

The Dirty Bargain by Lylah James & Cora Reilly
Arc provided in exchange for honest review ~
Let me just say that this short story is literally one of my favorites. Not gonna lie, it is extremely hard for me to really like any short story/novella if it doesn't execute well, but The Dirty Bargain seriously crosses my expectations. I seriously didn't expect to enjoy and love it so much and my god, let me tell ya that this story is such a serve which got me hooked from the beginning till the end. I'm a sucker for all the tropes in the story and I have to admit that I couldn't get enough after finishing it. I kinda wished for it to be a full length instead of a novella because this story was written extremely well. Moreover, I loved the characters especially Killer which he managed to steal my heart despite his psychotic personality. Overall, this story is considered as one of the best and I don't mind rereading it again in the future. Highly recommend!

“The Dirty Bargain” by @authorlylahjames and @corareillyauthor as part of the Tales of Darkness and Sin anthology✨
“This dirty bargain could be the end of me”
Wowza. Was not expecting this one a and that is saying something. Lylah, the Queen of plot twists, does it again
