"Tell me what's wrong. You don't get to be this pretty and look so sad. it isn't fair to the rest of us, angel."
This novella-sized bite of fun is tastier than chocolate (mmm, almost), in which we follow the Archangel Micah on his journey from san ...more |

| I'm afraid my frothing, rapid libido will steer my filthy thoughts in the one direction I can't have them pointed: straight to a big-eyed, pouty-lipped bookworm with messy dark-blond hair and a nascent masochistic streak nearly as unhinged and uni ...more | |

| From the first line - yes, the actual and not hyperbolic first line because if you've not seen it in the teasers, you must - I was enthralled. A cold mafia torturer with a gothic aesthetic and a "touch me and die" vibe...secretly wanting to be cuddle ...more | |

| I've had this one on my list for a while since devouring Bright's The Devil You Know. Just as with that book, this one had vivid world-building, tough characters that are far from Mary-Sues but can hold their own, and a sweet pairing that just makes ...more | |
“The world doesn’t fix itself just because someone points out its inherent unfairness.”
― A Knife and a Blade
― A Knife and a Blade
“I’d said fuck it then, hadn’t I? What had changed? My future – my life – was far from certain, and Ren had many enemies. What did tomorrow matter if it never even came?”
― A Whisper and a Breath
― A Whisper and a Breath
“But if this was to be my end – and it sure as fuck was coming, for my breaths were slower, my heartbeat faster, and everything was starting to feel ever so cold – then I wanted to go out like him. Like my beautiful Mathias, proud and determined, and the best man I’d ever met.
And so even though it felt fucking impossible, I moved my hand. Not much: just an inch, and even that cost me every remaining scrap of strength and willpower I had left in me, but enough to wrap around Panarin’s ankle where he stood over me. Enough to tighten my fingers so that he glanced down in surprise, and then disdain.
Not enough to achieve anything more. I couldn’t pull him off balance, or keep him away from Mat, but I could distract him for that tiny second, a moment that could make a difference even though it probably wouldn’t.
It was a useless, futile move, but I did it anyway.
Because it’s what Mat would have done.”
― A Shadow and a Storm

“The Commander gave a soft snort. “Naww. The little cub doesn’t realise he’s lost his claws.”
“He will,” Velichkov said with some amusement now playing about that normally serious-as-fuck face of his. “When he realises that what he did to Nathanael, I will do to him.”
