Toxic by Maggie Cole

2.5

This one was not as good as I was hoping it would be. It was so slow and boring throughout the book, I really disliked the time jumps which seemed to try to convey some important plot lines, but it never did. Like Dantes mum... One wuick chapter and then she was never metioned again, getting incested in Sean and Bridget's relationshops theough snippets and then ot being ripped away. I really hate Bridget, she is irritating and stubborn and ridiculous.  I  understand her fear but I just couldn't get away with the character at all. Dante was an ass but he owned it and never pretended otherwise. Sean Jr is hard to like because he's a teen with a lot of anger but I still think it was overboard. Overall just not an enjoyable read.

Did not enjoy this one at all, it was boring, but an unusual aspect of sentience for a "machine". It definitely hit the morals quota but otherwise I was mpstly boring whilst reading.

Not a fan of this one, the writing was incredible but I didn't care for the characters, but I'm very curious about the ending. I understand Tornado is pregnant but whats with the patch growing in Chi and the plusing red light... Intruiging.

This was a bit confusing but not long, i did try to get into it but it was a little to weird for me.

This was fast paced fun, I really like Ares and Neve together, they're explosive and it was so much watching them deny their attraction, even after their wedding night. I like all of the guys in this one, they're all dark but not bad, not really... Maybe I just have a thing for bad boys, I don't know 🤷🏻‍♀️. 
Neve is a great character but made some stupid decisions and it wasn't all early on either...
Going to meet Jack and having a huge arguement and walking out on Ares was a supremely stupid decision on her part
. I did like how she dealt with Ezio despite the absolute idiot he was to her the second time, the sheer authority she assumes when dealing with him is fun to see as well as fun to watch Ares see it. I liked that Ares was protective as soon as they were married, like I knew he would be to a certain extent but he was already in deep during the reception given what happened.
It felt incredibly stupid of them to trust that Seamus was gone, it was just too easy and they should have figured that out themselves, big bad mafia bosses my arse.

This one was certainly intriguing however it seemed a bit obvious who Krux and her brother were, but I didn't think Ira would join them, and i did wonder about the box. Definitely not a shocking end but a good read.

Another awesome short stoty from Veronica! Absolutely loved this one, Ace has so much depth and empathy, I do wish it was longer so Ace and Tertius could be explored, they seem to be getting close.

I really liked this, devoured it in one long sitting. I loved the Angelo fell first but I really enjoyed seeing them both grow together as people amd family. I love Tiny and Big Ricky, they bring a lot of humour to the story and are very protective of Tori, it's sweet. Not aure about continuing the series but I'll see later on
