AHHHH I LIKED THIS ONE MORE THAN THE FIRST ONE!!! I got exactly what I was craving from this installment. And it made me even more excited to go into the next book — even knowing it’s not Tristan and Morana (which I never want to stop reading their story unfold) but I am ready to see WTF HAPPENED TO AMARA?!?!?! Please let her be okay. Honestly as much as Morana is probably my current favorite FMC — Amara is going to hold a special place in my heart. She already does and we have barely had a glimpse of her.

5 stars. It was paced to keep my attention — the enemies hooking up — THE ENDING!! I’m running to book 2. These are the kind of books I should tell my therapist about and I looooove it. Tristan is scary and sexy and dark. Morana is strong and learning new things every day. I am obsessed with them and I never want it to end.

I loved this — I’d been seeing it get a lot of bad reviews but I enjoy it. There was some poor editing (why would the font be huge and then small at random parts of the book?) but other than that - I liked the characters, the old gothic theme, the “forbidden” love story. It was so fun and I couldn’t put it down. It was very easy to read and keep up with, mostly predictable but it would be a great intro to those who want to get into Dark Romance. I hope there will eventually be more to this story since I fell in love with Corvina and Vad.

This one took me a minute to get into — it is summer after all. But once I got into it I couldn’t put it down. I’m obsessed with Victor. Everyone deserves to be loved the way Victor loves Cordelia 😭😭 they are literally perfection. I couldn’t stop kicking my legs and giggling. This book had me in a chokehold — just like the first and I’m sure the next one will!
The subtle hints to Cordelia’s mental health, the mafia, the romance, the HINT of sports, action.. this book has it all!

I LOVED this installment — I was not prepared. I was very shocked with each turn. I was getting so mad at some of the implications that I almost had to put down the book but I knew my original thoughts had to be wrong so I continued and it was worth it. Good riddance!!

This was a quick read — not really sure what I went in expecting. I love the masked man trope, he hates everyone, literally, besides her, the horror/gore aspect. I guess it was what I was looking for — and the spice was SPICING 🌶️🥵🌶️🥵🌶️ I wish there were more to it but it really doesn’t need more, I’m just selfish.

I loved this so much. The enemies to lovers — forced marriage — the slow burn that was worth waiting on. I thoroughly enjoyed this installment! And the BONUS CHAPTER 🥵🥵 THANK YOU BRYNNEEEEEE!!

Wow this one… this is what I was not expecting. I was literally laying on my couch, just relaxing and literally had to sit up — audibly gasping. This part of the series was so full of twists I couldn’t keep up. My heart was aching for the HEA that I was told I would get. For there to be 15 pages left and I wondered desperately how that was going to happen.

*this is the combo of the Welcome to Whitlock to be read between White Out and Black Out*
This was super interesting — seeing through the perspective of many other characters, the scouts and a couple different slaves. As well as continuing to see the tragic love of Everleigh and Bram. Everleigh continues to manipulate her way into being free and Bram is crumbling.. Whitlock is crumbling. A lot is happening and I am excited to see how this continues to play out

I loved this book - I read a lot of dark romance so I break it up with light hearted romances like this regularly. I love the characters and fell in love quickly with them. This book was just the palate cleanser I needed and can’t wait until book 2 is out. The banter, the (albeit small) plot twist 🥳🥳 I loved this cute book so much
