'Taken Bride', The Secret Bride #3, Alta Hensley 💬 ENGLISH FIRST | ESPAÑOL DEBAJO 📖 Review: “Taken Bride”, The Secret Bride #3, by Alta Hensley → Tropes: dark romance; suspense; found family; trauma bonding ⭐ My rating: 2.75/3 stars →   Add to Goodreads This is the conclusion to ‘The Secret Bride’ series. The first book is a thriller and follows the story of Ember and Christopher and how they forcedly became husband and wife. The second book is about their life in New York after they escape their prison and all the drama that comes with it. And this is about how Christopher goes out to take her back when she’s again taken away from him. It’s their journey of coming together as willing husband and wife and finding what works for them in their mad world. I liked it but didn’t love it. There was so much more that could have been done and explained, the book fell short: The side characters could have been developed much more, especially Isaac. There was suspense throughout the

Review: Evading Fate, A.M. Myers

Evading Fate by A.M. Myers My rating: 2 of 5 stars REAL RATING: 2.5 STARS TITLE: EVADING FATE SERIES: HIDDEN SCARS, BOOK #3 AUTHOR: A.M. MYERS GENRE: CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE This book is the third and final (?) installment of the Hidden Scars series and CAN'T BE READ AS AN STANDALONE unless you want to spoil yourself the plot of the previous books as happened to me. I'm having trouble to write this review because I thought I'd love this story but I didn't. The premise was good but the development didn't live up to it, at least not for me. BLURB Fate. I’ve been running from it most of my life – doing everything I can to avoid the future it had dictated for me. If I had learned one thing from the hell I went through as a child, it was that I never wanted to go back. Until I ran into someone who was running from her destiny just as hard as I was. And it just so happens that she’s one of my best friends. One night, emboldened by alcohol, she does something that has me

A place in the Sun Author: R.S. Grey Release Date: Oct 24, 2016 Add on Goodreads When her mother’s incessant matchmaking hits an all-time high, Georgie Archibald does what any sensible woman would do: she flees the country. Seeking refuge in the picturesque seaside village of Vernazza, Italy, Georgie’s only plan is to lie low, gorge herself on gelato, and let the wine and waves wash her troubles away...that is until she wakes up in a bed that belongs to the most romantic-looking man she’s ever seen. Gianluca. After going out of his way to rescue her, the former London financier turned mysterious recluse makes it clear that despite acting as her white knight, he has no plans to co-star in her fairytale. But Georgie isn’t asking for his heart—she’s merely intrigued. After all, Gianluca isn’t just gorgeous—tall and tan from days spent in the sun—his touch sets her world on fire. With him, Georgie experiences the most intoxicati
