Safe From Home

Rate this book
The last three years of my life have been hell.

I've lost my mother, my brother and my best friend.

The only people I cared about, I was taken away from.

Life was bleak.

No friends. Just beatings—being kicked down if a spark of my old self returned.

I closed myself off to new people except the occasional too alike to me to turn away.

The threat of my father going after those closest to me is too high a price to pay.

Until they came along.

They make me long for more.

To break out from under my father’s thumb and fight for those I lost.

The road to their love is grave and those three years changed me but Jace, Luc, Alec, Dominic, Maverick and Mason are worth fighting for.

Safe from home

Contemporary, reverse harem, most 18, evil parents, abusive childhoods. Spoilers in review:

First, I love the cover of this kindle edition. The inside, though, really needs a lot of work. Most obvious are the myriad grammar, spelling, punctuation and misused words that mar this work. Next, the plot. Ok I have no problem with a trope filled story, they're comfortable. But, this story took all the tropes, shook them up in a mason jar, and spewed them throughout. The abused daughter of an evil man is rescued by a group of friends, one who she knew when she was younger. They slowly delve into a rh relationship, all ok. But, come on, make it somewhat believable. The father murdered his son, in front of her, 3 years ago. She tells the police, but he finds her, beats her half to death, then runs away with her, changing her name and they hide out in the Australian countryside. Nobody follows up on the murder? He beats her daily, while she goes to high school and all the students physically bully her (for no reason). Then the childhood friend has managed to make friends with the sons of a gang leader and crooked attorney, and others. She, it turns out, was also friends with a rh group of grey special agents and their gang leader daughter love. She meets her potential harem and hides from her father on the very next property over. IDK maybe Australia is just that spread out, but she can see the house from her new house. The entire first hundred pages needs a re write. The premise is shaky and the dialogue is juvenile and cringy. It gets better, or I just got used to it. Of course it ends on a predictable cliff hanger where she is kidnapped just after reaching safety. This could be a decent, obviously tropy, rh if the plot was refined, and the book edited.

This book was a solid three stars for me but if I’m being honest with myself I rated that high for nostalgia vibes. It very much gives Wattpad in the 2010s vibes. That’s not a bad thing if you are into it, but I feel like if you are looking for a super well written book that totally makes sense in all aspects and has great flow this one may not be for you. It was very entertaining nonetheless I quite enjoyed it but it might not be for everybody.

Worth reading.

I took a chance on this author and it was worth. While some parts of the book don't flow as well as other parts, I still enjoyed the characters, the story and can't wait to see what happens in book two. I did find a few grammatical errors, but not many. Glad I took a chance on this new author and hope others do too.

Gripping story

I came across this book as a you may like recommendation. I took a chance and it was a great story line of a group of people coming together, some reconnecting and finding a way through life together.

There were some typos and grammatical errors but they were small and so easy to skip over. The cliffhanger at the end was so unexpected but you knew something was going to happen just not to who. I won’t give spoilers.

Can’t wait to see what happens next with book 2!

Safe From Home

I loved this one! Rory is strong, but also vulnerable. The guys are all amazing, I couldn’t pick a favorite if I tried. I love their relationships with each other, they are the true embodiment of found family. I can’t wait for more of this story!!

Rory’s story was definitely intense.

She has had a horrible home life long before her brother passed but since then, it’s been a nightmare. She has just been anxiously waiting for her 18th birthday so she could get as far away from him as possible.

But then fate intervenes & she finds herself meeting & falling for the six boys that she stumbles across at school. More questions arise when amongst those boys is her brother’s friend that she hasn’t seen since her brother’s death.

The more she spends time with them, the more she starts to fall for them. But there is still tension due to the fact that her father is still out there & Luc still has people who may be after him.

That cliffhanger really had me on the edge of my seat & very anxious for the next book. This one had small spelling and grammar errors but it was still very easy to read & understand.

All in all, I really enjoyed this book & can’t wait for what happens next!

Amazing job!

Why choose/ small town/ slow burn/ second chance romance/ MMMFMMM/ MM/ hurt/comfort/ MC/ found family/ cliffhanger

Trigger warning: death of a loved one/ abuse/ violence/ SA/ PTSD/ trauma/ gun use/ neglectful parenting/ gun use/ murder/ death/ kidnapping

I NEED to know what happens next. This had romance, comedy, suspense, and drama and it kept me entertained. I tried to remember all of the possible triggers but I probably left some out. This definitely wasn’t a light and fluffy read. With how intense some of the subject matter was, there could have been more spice to balance it out but I’m sure there will be more in the next book.

Oh there were also quite a few typos that took me out of the story a bit so I couldn’t give it 5 stars

P.S. I love when the FMCs boyfriends are ALSO boyfriends

Baby’s First Fanfiction

What’s a girl to do when you’re juggling oh so many men?

Tropes

- Why Choose/RH
- Hurt/Comfort
- Second Chance
- Motorcycle Gang Activities
- Chosen Family
- Biawaken/Acceptance

I wanna put this in the nicest way possible, but it read like someone’s very first time writing a fanfiction. A fanfiction in which they feels like there is some sort of self insert. The amount of times there was some sort of problem that came up in the story. It seemed to get fixed almost immediately and it happened often. There was very little buildup, so it was hard to get invested. The book itself had a few typos here and there which didn’t really take me out of the story, but I did notice them. I’m not going to be reading the second book, even though it ends with a cliffhanger. It just wasn’t interesting.

2.5/5 ✨ rounded up
1.5/5 🌶️

I really enjoyed this book. This seems like the author's first book and the story sucked me in. I love finding new to me authors and new to the world authors in general. I started last night and finished in the wee hours. I can't wait to see where this story goes. I haven't been able to find the author on social media so I can follow them, but I'm hopeful that they continue writing and I get to continue on with Rory and her guys.

I really liked this and can’t wait for the next. It gives me strong Finding my Home vibes that I am here for.
Rory’s had a rough life since her brother was killed and her abusive father forced her to move away from those she cared about. When some new guys move to town she finds support and a new family she never dreamed of.
So many adorable meet cutes and good character growth. Bring on book 2 soon please!!!

Yikes! This needs alot of editing and a professional formatter. I tried to get into the story despite this but everything was so abrupt and the style of writing didn’t flow well for me. The characters didn’t have alot of development so I’m going to have to pass on it. DNF.

hoping for a second book

There are some minor spelling errors throughout the book but overall it has great characters, it’s sympathetic, it drew me in really easily. I would really like to read more and so I am hoping that there is a second book that will be available soon.

This was such a sweet read.
Great debut! I’m sad I didn’t realize the second book isn’t out yet. That cliffhanger 😭
But I loved the guys, how sweet they are, and her dynamic with them.

3/5 stars

I called that ending!! I will say I absolutely love the last line of the book, “I love you, wild.” UGH SO GOOD!!!!

This book was well over 500 pages, but I’m honestly a little surprised that I finished it. This book gave me ghost bird vibes, and even with all of the hate that book gets, it’s one of my favorite series.

This book obviously had its flaws, but I was hooked in immediately. I just love the group dynamic of it all, and the way that they all interact. We got some good moments in the book, and it wasn’t just constant plot points for the sake of them.
