My Bookish Life

  THE LORD IS BACK! What a ride! And it's out now!  I finished this book last night around midnight and I'm still overwhelmed. I can't actually put into words how excited I first was when the This Woman Series was announced. And I also can't put into words how eternally grateful I am for Jodie that she actually gave us Jesse's POV in three amazing and chunky books!  You're an estate agent. - Which makes me one of the best salesmen on the planet. I could sell condoms to a convent of nuns. I finally had time after a few very stressful weeks of work and this beauty only sitting in my kindle because I worked, showered and fell into bed. But now, with my holiday here and having a few days of calm, I got this baby done in 3 days. And I absolutely adored every page! Jesse was the first of Jodies men I had the pleasure to meet. And he'll forever by my favourite probably. As I said before, I am eternally grateful to her for writing this. Book 4 in the This Man ser...

  Another ARC review since I received one and the story is out since a few days!  Thanks to Greer Rivers for the opportunity to read her novella "Bully Sunshine" from the Bad For Me Anthology . A book that has only Dark and Forbidden Romance stories in it. I read it in two nights and to say that I was a bit shocked and also in love, is probably the most honest answer. Like usual, let's start with the blurb: 𝘈 29𝘬 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘥, (𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘦) 𝘥𝘢𝘳𝘬, 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘳-𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘨𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘤 𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘢𝘳𝘬 𝘢𝘤𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘤 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘯 𝘜𝘯𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘺. As a former Order assassin, I had everything I could ever want right at my fingertips thanks to the Crows. Money. Women. Power. And my dream career as a professor at the prestigious Graveston University. But then 𝘴𝘩𝘦 walked in. My student. Pure sunshine that brightened my world. I was obsessed with her as soon as she sat down. Then I called h...

The American... I finished this book last night at 1am. I have been wanting to read this book since it was announced in The Rising . And now it is over with makes me incredibly happy because I absolutely adored it (even more than the last if that's possible) and also a wee bit sad because it is over.  But let me start at the beginning. I got the ARC on Monday night, too late to start so I didn't because stupid work *laughs* Then TUE something was happening that really got me down so no reading either, but when I stated this book on WED morning before work (dumb me) I immediately was captured in the first few sentences.  "My love," he whispers, kissing my shoulder. "Forever." All readers of her knew what this book will be about so there's no secret in that but let me give you the official blurb like I usually do in my posts... Temptation has never been so dangerous. A domineering force in Miami’s volatile criminal underworld, Brad Black is respected. Fear...
