Review: Lock Me Out - Book #2 The Locked Duet - C. Hallman - February 2025

At the end of Book #1, we read that an explosion happened at the main house killing three people which included Colt and Nix's Dad, Leni's Mom and a third person which everyone but Colt assumes was his brother. Colt and Leni move in together and start dating Colt is gentle but firm with her and the pair start to get into a great routine, even more so when Colt's mum is awake and out of her coma. Life is looking up for the pair, Colt on the other hand just wishes his brother would make an appearance as he has been secretly emailing him updates of their life. Eventually, Nix does come back but half his face is scarred and we learn about what happened the day the fire was set and who the third person was. You see, the third person's family knows something happened and blames Leni for it and they want revenge and are eager to do an eye for an eye which results in Leni getting kidnapped and more people of course getting killed. I have to admit when Nix does come back, the three get into a relationship and the dark romance happens again as Nix is just like their father and into rough sex. I was like seriously Colt are you that blind and going to let your brother re-traumatise your girlfriend sexually especially after she's finally moved on, but Leni wasn't that afraid as even though Nix hurt her, she still went along with it. I started to lose respect for both Colt and Leni's characters when Nix came back as it was like he was their master and they were his puppets. In conclusion, as you can guess what happens is we finish on a Reverse Harem or as the kids are calling it today WhyChoose ending and a Dark Romance HEA for Colt, Nix, and Leni as the Locked Duet winds up.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
