Spunky

DNF Bookstore: A Shared World #1

by Haley Tyler

If your book boyfriend came to life, would you do anything to keep him?

Of course you would.

And I would too.

Ian and I only have 72 hours together before he disappears back into his book, and the only way to keep him with me forever? True love's j*zz. That's right. I need all the creamy, spunky goodness he has to offer. And I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make him mine forever, even if that means marrying a fictional man.

Genres: Romance, Novella, Smut, Erotica, Contemporary Romance, Ebooks, Short Stories

About the author

Hi, I'm Haley Tyler, a dark romance author from Texas!

I’m the one behind the gritty Salvatore Brotherhood MC series and the dark paranormal romance Calling on the Reaper. My stories are filled with characters you love to hate and plots that twist and turn when you least expect it.

I’ve been telling stories my whole life, but I officially became a published author in 2021 with my debut novel, Killing Calm (book 1 in the SBMC series!). Since then, I’ve been living and breathing my dark, twisted worlds.

When I’m not writing, you can catch me listening to Taylor Swift or heavy metal (because there’s no in-between), binge-watching the latest TV series, or diving into a good romance novel.

If you’re looking for your next dark romance obsession, you’ve found it. Welcome to my world!

[Darlene I read WAY to many books · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cum smoothies, banana play and carrots...yeah lots of food play and sometimes it wasn't a good time lol. This one almost made me dnf when she drank his cum smoothies.. since I was drinking a milk shake hahah

Lyric is a booknerd just having a ball her and her bestie Story co-owner of DNF bookstore she wants a man so she does a spell. And POP comes our Ian a Irish dream who she can control just one part she can't make him do have sex with her. That's on his own free will. But they can do other stuff.

But not all dreams last they have to well Jizz together for him to stay in the real world. 😆😆😆
So they gotta get married and have sex.

[Grapie Deltaco]

You know what 😐☝️ i saw the description that the goal of this entire series is to make the reader want to DNF and that’s on me. I stepped up to the challenge to read every godforsaken word of every nightmarish book in this series and I have no one to blame but myself.

[Leonie · Rating 1 out of 5]

yeah i did not have a good time. I finished it tho so i guess that’s a win.

the carrots didn’t deserve that

[Romancing the Reader · Rating 1 out of 5]

Woooooof…

I decided not to review these formally and I’m sticking to it. Out of the four I read, this one might have been the worst. It had a solid story ideaaaa, but was butchered and I ended up not enjoying it. The unhinged part of this… I thought it could be hot but this one was def made to DNF.

I know I'm gonna regret it..

Me: oh this one’s not that bad, the Scotsman thing is kind of cute

Me reading this bitch slurping up some crusty cum: I WANT TO TOSS THIS BOOK OFF THE NEAREST CLIFF THEN HAVE MY EYEBALLS FOLLOW IT JFC

poor carrots...

[Kimbot the Destroyer · Rating 2 out of 5]

So I didn't dnf. I also didn't laugh. Or care at all, really. This is Scrotie McBoogerballs and I'm not in the 4th grade.
PERFECT marketing. I normally would not waste my time with anything else in this series. I am, however, irrationally stubborn. They won't beat me with cringe, but they may exhaust me with boredom.

[Lindsay Abila · Rating 3 out of 5]

Literally don’t know what to even rate this - going with the most common rating which has been a 3.

1. I’ve never felt so trolled in my life
2. Robin made me read this. I wish I could share the complication of photos she took of me reading it.

Will I read any of the other nonsense books in this collection? Maybe…probably.. lol

[Dino Queen · Rating 3 out of 5]

Was this GOOD? No
But was this exactly what the author promised? YES
Very cringy, funny, and strangely sweet this book was a great/terrible start to the DNF Series!

[Jessica Logan · Rating 1 out of 5]

*sigh*...upping my dose after this one folks

[Brookelynn Jorgensen · Rating 1 out of 5]

I hate myself a little more today.

[Ebony Giselle · Rating 4 out of 5]

ARC Review — This was so unique. The book boyfriend coming to life was so uncommon. I didn’t expect this synopsis at all.

Sorta insta love
Mind control
Cum smoothie
Sexy scenes
Virgin male
A man with an accent
And a HEA epilogue

The cringe came from a cum smoothie and all the ways they referenced anal sex. Otherwise, not too bad. Very enjoyable and easy to read.

[CrazyGal609 · Rating 3 out of 5]

So, I finally found one I’d put as idiotic… but with a bit of funny parts (Example: “Harder. Plow my field harder!”) 😆
He’s from 1829, how would he know to reference a “red rocket”?!!

[Olivia Bellis · Rating 2 out of 5]

OK I just want to explain that this book series is specifically written so that you feel uncomfortable and want to stop reading because it’s that cringe… Yeah it was bad… But still better than the villa

[Mandy · Rating 1 out of 5]

CRIMINAL

[Krystina C · Rating 3 out of 5]

Read for a quick cringe of things your mum whispers to your dad at night time.

Wtf did I just read 😂 it's a 77 page list of new things to call your bits and bobs.

It purposefully goes out of its way to make you cringe and I kinda loved it 😂😂😂🤣

[Destiny · Rating 1 out of 5]

(Read this one as a joke with my friend)

i almost stopped listening this one was crazy - VILE GROSS INSANE OMG

[Rowena Robinson]

WTF…. Like what was that.

The 🥕 tho…

[Karie · Rating 3 out of 5]

My dear friend Destiny heard about the DNF series, and I am honored that she thought of me. Challenge accepted. One down, I think twelve to go.

Lyric co-owns a used bookstore called DNF, where if she’s not crying for the sad books that get DNF’d she’s reading about Scottish hunks. Her co-owner, Story, tells her about a simple little spell that will bring her book boyfriend to life and lo and behold! It works.

What ensues is an equal parts hilarious and gross romp leaving carrots forever ruined for me. I’ve experienced new turns of phrase that I can’t unsee. Thank you.
