Losers Duet

By: Harley Laroux

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Tropes: Enemies to Lovers / BDSM / Dark Romance / Why Choose / MF & MM

I re-read this duet at least twice a year. I absolutely love them. The way each of the boys has their own trauma and Jess basically helps each of them work through it. ... a lot of theirs are similar to my own, which made it hit the feels that much harder. That ANDDDDD the spice is this book is top teir. It's definitely not for everyone, but good lord it's good.

Harley Laroux is one of my favorite authors, I've read all their work, but Losers is one that just means the most to me. So much so, I tattooed the "keep chasing the next sunrise".

Favorite Scene / Quotes

🖤“Do you remember what I used to tell you?” Manson said. “When we were teenagers and we’d drive out here to talk about shit…you’d tell me you didn’t want to see another day…” I remembered that, of course I did. I remembered the despair I felt, the pain we shared, how hopeless I’d been. “If you can get through the night, you’ll see the sun again,” I said, repeating the words he’d told me back then. “Keep chasing the next sunrise.” I closed my eyes as I exhaled. “The night feels really fucking dark, Manson, but I’m still chasing sunrises.”

🖤“I wanted to ride this man like a goddamn roller coaster and then take his friends for a spin too.”

🖤“Manson would wait for you in the dark and you’d never see him coming; while Lucas would come in broad daylight, smash your windows out, and set your house on fire.”

🖤Fave spice scene from start to finish is when they send her into Jason's room... I giggle every time I hear the word Toaster Strudel thanks to that. 🤭

Red Thorns / Black Thorns

By: Rina Kent

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Tropes: 'Enemies' to Lovers / Dark Romance / Second Chance / Football Player x Cheerleader / Mafia Adjacent

Red Thorns itself didn't really get super interesting till like the last 1/3 of it, but once it did it was so good! Personally, I thought Black Thorns was the better of the two. SO many times I wanted to dramatically scream NOOOOOO, but loved it the whole time anyway. I think that this duet is a super underrated part of the Rinaverse. I loved Sebastian and Naomi!

Favorite Scene / Quotes

🖤"No, it's time you listen to me. I'm done with you, Sebastian" "But I'm not done with you," I growl into the phone. "I'll never be done with you, do you hear me? You can escape to the other side of the globe and I'll follow and make you mine again. I'll chase you over and over until you know you can't escape me. I meant it when I said you're mine and I don't plan to let it end."

Sweet Venom

By : Rina Kent

Rating : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Spice : 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Tropes : Stalker / Dark Romance / Hockey / Secret Society

This might come close to being as God tier as God of Wrath / Monster Trilogy / Vow Trilogy Favorite Scene / Quotes

🖤The bike ...

🖤“Violet is a flame in its most delicate form. She’s not a raging and absolutely destructive orange, but she’s blue. Discreet, seemingly safe but actually dangerous. Just like the fucking blue umbrella she put in my hands.”

Garron Park & Lot 62

By: Nordika Night Book Rating : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Spice : 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ Tropes : MM / Enemies to Lovers Literally my new favorites! Devon and Maddox. Had everything I love in enemies to lovers, that thick real hate at first, tension so good. ALSO loved that they were 25, finally a little older characters in a book. Both Garron Park and Lot 62 were so good start to end. Growing up also in a life like they live, while others call it trashy or too much, it def felt like it use to when it was my reality. also, the dirt bikes??? jeesh Favorite Scenes / Quotes 🖤Garron Park / Hospital Scene

🖤“I just want to hate you, have you, fuck you, and fight with you. That’s it. Well, wasn’t that the fucking sweetest thing?”

🖤Lot 62 / Devon and Maddox in the back seat of the truck & the wedding

🖤“I told him I loved him one day and he punched me in the mouth for it, claiming I just had to say it first like it was some competition. He basically beat the confession back into my mouth and then said it himself. He thought he’d won that fight, but I was happy enough to let him think that. We loved each other. We said it. It didn’t have to be this big thing. Done.”
