I will regularly add books to every category so keep an eye out!

Nero (Made Men) by Sarah Brianne

✮✮✮✮✮

Nero is the king of Legacy Prep, living a life of power.
Elle is the school’s punching bag, living a life of fear.
The only good girls Nero knows jump in his bed when he tells them to.
The closest Elle has come to a bad boy like him is in the cafeteria line. The mob boss gave him orders to find out what she knows.
Her mouth is sealed.

-> A Mob book. Fantastic read! The second book in the Made Men series is Vincent (Made men Book 2) which I am planning on reading soon. Got high hopes for this one because Nero was so good.

Carter Reed by Tijan

✮✮✮✮

Emma decided to skip the gym and went home early. It was the last easy decision she made because she found her roommate being raped by her boyfriend. She had two choices. Call the cops and be killed by his family’s mafia connections or kill him first and hope to survive. There was no choice to her. She killed the bastard first and went to the one person who could protect her. Carter Reed. He’s a weapon for the rivaling mafia family, but he’s also Emma’s secret. Not only was he best friends with her brother, but she’s the reason he became that weapon in the first place.

-> On top of the Mafia list together with Nero and Siempre! I will be reading the second book Carter Reed 2 which came out recently and review it soon.

My life next door by Huntley Fitzpatrick

✮✮✮✮

The Garretts are everything the Reeds are not. Loud, messy, affectionate. And every day from her rooftop perch, Samantha Reed wishes she was one of them . . . until one summer evening, Jase Garrett climbs up next to her and changes everything.

As the two fall fiercely for each other, stumbling through the awkwardness and awesomeness of first love, Jase's family embraces Samantha - even as she keeps him a secret from her own.

-> This is a very cute story, really enjoyed it.

Real by Katy Evans

✮✮✮✮

A fallen boxer.
A woman with a broken dream.
A competition...

He even makes me forget my name. One night was all it took, and I forgot everything and anything except the sexy fighter in the ring who sets my mind ablaze and my body on fire with wanting...

-> Fighter book: Very intense, steamy but he is so possessive, almost extreme but I still enjoyed it *sigh*. All the Travis fans - this one is definitely for you. This is the first book out of the three that are about Brooke and Remington. Book 2 and 3 however did not get such positive reviews and out of experience (such as Consumed, Too Consumed and Forever Consumed by Skyla Madi) the other two books usually involve a lot of drama (pregnancy, marriage, cheating etc) so I just read it as a standalone to avoid that. Book 4 however is about Brooke's best friend Melanie. I actually enjoyed that book more than Real. I highly recommend it - Rogue (Real #4) by Katy Evans. (✮✮✮✮)
