Grab yourself some more Haze and Indi for a little Christmas fun 😈

After Haze left, Indi had to move in with her sister and their relationship is tenuous at the least. Haze is keeping an eye on Indi and does try to visit her occasionally, trouble is she wants more and that could lead to danger, as she relies on w33d and alcohol in a vain attempt to thwart away the loneliness. Of course, Haze ensures that she is safe until something happens that could bring her, Haze and Felix to a turning point in their lives.

“𝒲𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒’𝓈 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒻𝓊𝓃 𝒾𝓃 𝒷𝑒𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒸𝒶𝓇𝑒𝒻𝓊𝓁?”

A quick read with lots of spice, a of smattering baking (of course), with a little plot to keep you tied to the pages and that ending…

I was so pumped for the first book and it delivered. Unfortunately this second one just didn’t hit the same way.

I felt as though the story twisted in a weird new direction which felt out of place from the first. And I felt as though we didn’t get much context or information for the secret 🤫

And this one lost some of the taboo magic the first had. I still love the MC and Kush though.

Ahhh I love Haze & Indi and Baked is one of my favourite taboo erotic horrors. For me, Burnt didn't have the same magic. I felt that the taboo aspect was abit lost & I didn't feel like there was much happening plotwise... other than laying backstory & introducing cross over characters.
I still enjoyed catching up with the characters again.

Dang AB Cynthe knows how to tell a story!!! This one was hectic in the best way haha and kept me hooked from start to finish. The taboo elements made it even more interesting LOL, so so unhinged. Definitely a wild time

Burnt by AB Cynthe

Please make sure you check your triggers warnings and content warnings before reading.

When I finished Baked I knew that I wanted more of Haze and Indi. I didn't want it to be the end of them. When Burnt was announced I was so happy! I couldn't wait to be back in the world of Haze and Indi.

Ever since after Halloween Indi has been keeping to herself and staying in her room with Kush and faking and pretending she is okay, when really all she wants is Haze. She doesn't understand why he hasn't talked to her since that night. She wonders why he just left her and hasn't responded back letting her know if he is even okay.

Little does Indi know Haze has his eyes on her even if she doesn't know. Ever since they have been apart he has done everything in his power to protect her and make sure that she is okay. He wants nothing more than to just be with her but he has to make sure she's protected.

"I used to think the pull I felt towards you was just a twin connection, a sickness I'd grow out of."
"But I was wrong. That pull merely grew, transforming into a desperate desire I'd never felt before. It was so intense, so raw, that it scared me. So I kept it locked away inside."

The way I can't get enough of Indi and Haze! The spice between them is spicy and it is hot 🔥 it's like you could feel the connection between them through my kindle. Again I didn't want this to end. I NEED more of these characters, plus the cross over I'm so OBSESSED.

🍁 Burnt 🍁

ᴡᴇ ᴡᴇʀᴇ ᴀᴅᴅɪᴄᴛᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ᴇᴀᴄʜ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ, ᴀɴᴅ ɴᴏ ᴍᴀᴛᴛᴇʀ ʜᴏᴡ ᴍᴜᴄʜ ᴡᴇ ꜰᴇᴅ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴛᴏxɪᴄ ʜᴀʙɪᴛ, ɴᴏᴛʜɪɴɢ ꜱᴀᴛɪꜱꜰɪᴇᴅ ɪᴛ

I’m sure it will come as no surprise to anyone that I absolutely loved this book, it was 100% worth the wait.

I loved Indi and Haze in Baked, but I love them even more in Burnt, especially now that Felix is around! Haze would literally do anything for his sister…is it wrong that I’m jealous of the apartment, the random appearances when Indi needs protecting (or even when she doesn’t), actually…I think I just need my own Haze 😂

What a little bitch Mary-Jane is, I’m so glad she got what was coming to her. But that ending?? Can I have the next book now please??

Not forgetting star of the story, Kush, such a cute boy 🥰

💚 Burnt is available on KU 💚

Burnt jumps right back in where Baked left off, and I really liked how seamless it felt. The consequences start hitting hard, and honestly, some characters had it coming. Given the situations and choices that led up to those moments, everything felt handled the way it should have been, which made it satisfying rather than frustrating.
What I enjoyed most was how much the world opens up in this book. It doesn’t just continue the story—it expands it. Felix, the twins’ brother, gets brought up a lot more, and getting a look into his world added a whole new layer to the story that I wasn’t expecting but really appreciated.
Even though these stories are short, they’re packed with so much. There’s emotion, tension, and depth in every chapter, and nothing feels rushed or unnecessary. A.B. Cynthe does an amazing job of telling a lot of story in a small space, and Burnt definitely left an impression on me. I’m excited to see where things go next.

Novella that picks up right where the first one ended, there was a lot of things I didn't like about the first book, but somehow I wanted to read this one, basically just to see a little bit of Aiden, who is a side character, and is getting his own book soon, in another series by another author.

But this one surprised me, I did enjoyed it, it was a wild, crazy book, and the connection that Indi and Haze have is obviously forbidden and taboo, but I like how things went in this book, and I like the introduction to the other brother, I hope he gets a book of his own, he is definitely an interesting character.

A lot of spice, pot, and a little bit of an interesting secret society plot. It was fun, and if a new book comes, I will read it.

MINOR SPOILER. Barely I guess.

I missed Haze so much! When I read Baked and heard Burnt was coming out a month later I STALKED Cynthes IG to see when it was coming out to read it. Honestly happy with what happened to Mary. I understand that the plot is moving but I didn’t expect a underground network for a taboo romance to include our lovely pot heads NO OFFENSE LOL. I feel like the Taboo aspect was there OBVIOUSLY but it didn't have the same feeling as book one. I think this book is just setting up for a story with other characters to have their own books in the future. It was nice for a cross over for Aiden though. Might change my rating when I let this marinate in my head a bit more.

(Plot/Spice/Tears/Violence-Gore-Action)
📚 5/5 - 🌶 5/5 - 💧3/0 - 🗡 3/5

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

I love Haze, Indy and Kush(can't forget this little pothead). This book was so amazing! I love taboo, and these two make it so much spicier, especially with all the food being involved! 😂 And Felix? OMG. I can not wait for his book, and if you haven't read Sour, there is a sneak peek of his FMC in there.👀 I'm really interested in more about this secret organization, the glimpse get in Burnt just wasnt enough! Also eff Mary-Jane she finally got what she deserves!!

This has become one of my favorite series.

Loved it

What a great novella and 2nd book to baked. That cliffhanger was epic, I hope we get a third book. The spice was on point again and just as i expected fpr an ab. Cynthe book. The story had a storyline that made sense and made me want to read it and not just read it for the spice.

Book two in the Special Brownie series amps everything up. She stops resisting, he embraces every second, and the result is a taboo-laced, gory, and surprisingly fun descent into madness. Hot, brutal, and addictive.

I really loved Indi and Haze in Baked and I was so happy to see what they were up to after Halloween.
We got to see a lot more of their world, and date night was one of my favorite parts!

Felix is an interesting addition and he fit in with the twins well. It seems like he has a lot of secrets, I hope we get to figure them all out. Aiden was also a fun addition and I’m hoping to read his book soon!

I wish we got to see more of sweet baby Kush but honestly I just love him so much I want him mentioned on every page.

I need answers after that cliffhanger!
