 BOOK REVIEW: All The Little Lies by S.J. Sylvis


(A High School Bully Romance)

Author: S.J. Sylvis

Released Date: June 18th, 2020

Source: Goodreads


English Prep stands tall with its ivy-covered exterior and old, wrought-iron doors. The stone gargoyles sit at the school’s entrance, knowing just as much as anyone: I don’t belong.

Once upon a time, I did. I belonged in the “it” crowd with all the other well-endowed kids, but now, I am no longer welcome.

Not after five years away from this place.
Not after the scandal that landed me on the wrong side of the tracks.

I’d be lying if I said I’m not looking forward to seeing the one person who was always by my side. My old best friend. My safe place.

Only, Christian isn’t the same boy I left behind. His cold, brooding, devastatingly attractive glare sends chills down my spine. My old best friend doesn’t welcome me with open arms, and I have no idea why. Lies continue to fall from our lips.

Christian wants me gone.
But I’m determined to stay.


REVIEW

All The Pretty Lies
S.J. Sylvis

description

I plunged my tongue inside her mouth, tasting every lie, deceit, and ugly truth that was on her lips.

When I'm reading this I did not EXPECT to like this, perhaps due to the fact that S.J. Sylvis is a new author for me I haven't read anything from her and I'm so happy that I have now♚. Because I tell you, this is such a good high school bully romance with a little bit of mystery, plus the heroine is a bad-ass bitch and a hero that will do anything for her eventually Overall I truly enjoy reading this I assumed at first that maybe this will be the same with most of bully romance out there same old, same old and I'm glad that it isn't. I can't wait to read more by this Author.

“I know there’s been a huge gap of time between us, and other constraints of the past, but this…” Christian took my hand and placed it on his chest. I could feel his heart thumping against my palm. “This has always beat for you. Even when I wanted to hate you, it beat for you.”

“When all the little lies tasted bitter on my tongue, you were the one truth I couldn’t hide from. It’s you. It’s always been you.”

 BOOK REVIEW: No Prince by Stevie J. Cole, LP Lovell


(Dayton 1)

Authors: Stevie J. Cole, LP Lovell

Released Date: March 26th, 2020

Source: Goodreads


Zepp Hunt wasn’t the king of Dayton high school. He was the top of the food chain. And I was next in line to be dragged into the lion’s den. At least that’s what he thought…

Good girls wanted to tame him. Bad girls want to be tainted by him. Everyone bowed down to him. And me?
I hated Zeppelin Hunt with every fiber of my being.
Which was why I stayed away from the arrogant bad boy with tattoos and a rap sheet.
Until I couldn’t.
Until we traded favors, and I owed him three months of my life. I never thought I would end up in his bed, and when I did, I had to remind myself that he hated me as much as I hated him.
Until I didn’t.

Zepp Hunt was no prince, and I absolutely refused to be his damsel in distress…


REVIEW

Wow! I'm always been a big fan of this duo, I love every books that they written, own or collaboration, don't mind because they have this magic in creating a world and building up the right character for their story. And once I'd saw that's they are releasing a Angsty bully romance which I'm a sucker of, I am so thrilled💯.

So I literally finished reading this book now, and dear god I'd devoured every page of the book, I'm so glad that this is a full length novel.

Zeppelin Hunt is your typical asshole brooding big tattooed male character that you can't help to fall in love with despite of his reputation. Then Monroe James is this bad ass, sassy don't give a shit persona that I really dig in for my female character. This two both came from the wrong side of the track.

Roe being a white trash and Zepp being a bad boy in all sense.

What I love most in this book, is the author really invest a time to build the relationship bet the MC. How the angst and tension executed well and how the story dive in as well for the supporting characters, how they role being value, plus I always find myself laughing all the funny banters and dialogues bein thrown in the book. ♥️

Zeppelin Hunt's character are one of those you did not expect or will not consider to be a book boyfriend. But man once you get to know and get into depth of his character you will find yourself rooting for him. And as for Monroe I can't say enough for me she's a perfect match for him, no doubt. 💯

No Prince, highly recommended, a great read and I'd say this will definitely in my top reads for this year. And if your looking for something angsty, dark and bully romance that will knock you out, this one is for you. 👍

BOOK REVIEW: Tell Me Pretty Lies by Charleigh Rose


(Standalone New Adult Bully Romance)

Author: Charleigh Rose

Released Date: April 5th, 2020

Source: Goodreads



Three things my mother acquired when she became engaged:

1. A brand new Tiffany's ring.
2. A lavish home on Heartbreak Hill.
3. Three privileged stepsons.


The last thing I expected was to fall for one of them, least of all Thayer Ames.
Beautiful, brooding, and untouchable.
I knew it was a bad idea. He warned me himself.
But he was a thunderstorm, and I never could resist the rain.
It was perfect…
Until it wasn’t.
One night was all it took for our world to crumble, leaving only secrets and lies between us.
Now, I have to face him again, but the boy I used to know has become the man who loves to hate me.


REVIEW


This is my third book read by Charleigh Rose, and I like it as expected. Shayne and Thayer romance is the perfect mirror of love to hate /bully romance. The level of angst, the push and pull relationship and the off the chart chemistry.

I just wish the Epilogue wasn't rushed, I feel like there should be more, and I get that there's a second book coming, It's just that I am not contented, it should be a five star read if its not for those reason.

Overall, this was an awesome read. I'm thrill for Holden book.

Bad Habit by Charleigh Rose


(Bad Love 1)

Author: Charleigh Rose

Released Date: November 15th, 2017

Source: Goodreads


BRIAR
I was infatuated with Asher Kelley the moment he came tumbling through my brother’s window five years ago.
Even bruised and bloodied, he was the most beautiful boy I'd ever seen.
We couldn't ever be together.
I was too young, and he was too untouchable.
He was too troubled, and I was too naive.
But the heart is rebellious, and mine decided it didn’t care about any of those things.
As I got older, harmless flirting turned to stolen moments in dark corners.
Until one day, he was gone without a trace.
Now, three years later, he’s back.
Callous and cruel.
He’s my brother’s best friend. My parents’ worst nightmare.
I should hate him.
But like a Bad Habit, I can’t quit him.

ASHER
I was drawn to Briar Vale from the first time she looked up at me with stars in her big, blue eyes.
She was just a kid, nothing but elbows and knees, but she was the most beautiful creature I'd ever seen.
We could never be together.
I was too old and she was too off limits.
She was too good and I was too fucked up.
Eventually, the temptation became too much to resist.
I risked everything for a kiss and she betrayed me.
Three years have passed and I’m forced to see her again, but now she's all grown up.
She’s my best friend’s baby sister. My downfall.
I hate her for what she did.
But she's always been my drug of choice.

 Saint by E.M. Snow


(Angelview Academy 1)

Author: E.M. Snow

Released Date: March 21st, 2020

Source: Goodreads


At Angelview Academy, Saint Angelle is considered God.
But don't be fooled by his ridiculous name or that pretty face because Saint? He’s as wicked as they come.
I should know.
I'm the new girl who pissed him off.
The nobody who called out his crew of vicious tyrants.
The mortal who wouldn't bow then and sure as hell won’t now.
Saint swears I'll regret it.
He vows to own every inch of me.
He even promises to make my senior year a living hell.
I don't believe him, though.
Because if angels can fall, so can so-called gods.
And I want to be the one to bring Saint Angelle to his knees.


SAINT is a full-length, 80,000 word new adult/ mature high school romance with enemies-to-lovers and bullying themes. It is not recommended for readers under 17 as it contains dubious situations and triggers that some readers may find offensive. It is NOT a standalone and ends in a cliffhanger.
