JAYE PRATT WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT ENDING??? 😭😭😭

I’m actually unwell after finishing I’m Not Scared Part 2 because this book consumed my entire brain for hours and then had the audacity to throw me off a cliff AGAIN. Like excuse me??? I trusted nothing, everyone was suspicious, my emotions were being dragged behind a speeding car, and somehow I still devoured every single page like a gremlin with zero self control.

Kayla has me in a chokehold. She’s messy, emotional, stubborn, vulnerable, and trying so hard to protect herself while these absolutely feral men keep bulldozing every wall she puts up. The tension in this book??? Sickening. Every conversation felt loaded like a gun sitting on the kitchen table. I was sitting there squinting at my Kindle like “who’s lying, who’s hiding things, WHO IS ABOUT TO RUIN MY LIFE NEXT?”

And the men??? Vero, Brawley, Clay, Ares… I am LOOKING RESPECTFULLY. Mostly. Maybe not respectfully at all actually. They’re walking red flags stitched together with trauma, obsession, possessiveness, and emotional damage, which apparently is exactly my brand because I ate this up. Every tiny crumb of softness had me kicking my feet like an idiot.

BUT THE SCARECROW???? HELLO????? I did not expect him to creep into my heart the way he did. There’s something about him that just hits differently. Every scene with him felt sharp and strange and weirdly comforting at the same time, like standing in a thunderstorm wrapped in a blanket.

The emotional whiplash in this series deserves compensation. One second I’m giggling, the next I’m stressed, then suspicious, then emotional, then suddenly staring at the wall trying to process what just happened. Fear Island honestly feels like its own living breathing nightmare carnival and I never want to leave.

And that cliffhanger??? Jaye really looked us dead in the eyes and said “suffer.” Absolute criminal behaviour. I need the next book immediately because there is NO WAY I can sit here peacefully after that ending. Five stars without hesitation. My sanity has left the building.

I'm not scared Pt 2 took a different direction than I thought it would but needless to say I am obsessed! Scarecrows riddles, Ares dare I say showing feelings and Kayla trusting someone unexpected with the details of her past are just some of the interesting details you can look forward to in Pt 2. With the heart-racing cliffhanger we are left on, I can't wait to see what happens in Pt 3!

This book was everything I wanted in Part 2 of the I’m Not Scared trilogy. It was fast paced. It was spicy. It was moving and sweet and funny and just everything I loved about book 1 but even better.
Vero is still my favorite and even though he is completely unhinged, I think he compliments Kayla so perfectly. And the way Brawley is clearly developing feelings for her simply by seeing how much she cares for Vero melts my heart.
Ares is still such an intriguing character. He hides so much but I was living for his “Fuck It” moment!! Those two words never fail to make me squirm. And then there’s Clay. Who’s already taken ownership of Kayla even though he cant quite comprehend why.
The 4 men together just work so well and even though they clearly drive each other crazy, I’m loving their friendship underneath it all and the way they share Kayla without any jealousy or animosity.
That cliffhanger though was so brutal and I’m soooo keen for book 3 already!! I need to know how things end ❤️

First off, another amazing book. Second I need part three, like right now!!
I absolutely love how Kayla is with all the men. And I love how all the men love her and how they are absolutely obsessed with her!!
Although I love all the characters, Clay is still number 1. My new book boyfriend 🤣.

Make sure to go read part one.

“I hate that I missed you... That I couldn’t be pissed off in peace without my chest feeling like it wanted to cave in. I’m not forgiving you just because you sent me flowers, so you can all go eat a dick.”

Thankyou @jayeprattauthor
for this ARC copy! 🫶🏻 Once again you have totally hit the spot with the atmosphere, hard hitting emotions, humor to make you laugh out loud and spice that's so hot your smoke alarm will probably start screeching. 😝

🖤ARES may be trying to sneak in and steal the #1 MMC spot. In the first book he was the silent and kind of boring type with the “I’ll stand in the corner looking dangerous” energy, and now I am completely feral over him. Getting to know him more this time around was just what I needed!

🖤VERO is back being his chaotic little menace all the reasons we fell in love with him in book one. He keeps every single one on their toes. Honestly, the group dynamic would be boring and collapse without this chaos gremlin.

🖤BRAWLEY'S protective mother hen vibe was REALLY shining in this book, especially when it came to Vero and Kayla. This man looks like the biggest, scariest, toughest one in the group, but underneath it all he’s literally just a giant teddy bear.

🖤CLAY. My king. I have been his girl since DAY ONE and this book somehow made me even more obsessed with him. I am loving watching his walls finally start to come down and seeing that more vulnerable side of him. Don’t get me wrong there are still plenty of moments where I wanted to slap him (lovingly) because this man can be so annoying but seeing him finally start to open up about his feelings was everything!

The overall storyline with Kayla being haunted by her past had me stressed and I loved how our Sexy Corn Field Scarecrow was woven into it with his riddles. Every time he appeared he was giving off this eerie guardian angel vibe that is unsettling and weirdly comforting at the same time. 😅 I'm not saying anything more because spoilers, obviously, but I do need a moment to absolutely SCREAM about that ending because WHAT THE HELLY WAS THAT?!?! The second the guys catch wind of what’s really going on, that fucker is absolutely done for. I am once again desperate for the next book! 😫

Wow, what a beginning, middle and end!! This whole series devours you from the first page to the last. I cannot get enough and wish that I did not have to wait for book 3! Cos yeh this ends on a cliffy and oh boy what a cliffy it is!
Kayla and her motley crew are off to a good start as she realises she does miss them all, even though Vero did something so bad that she let her emotions get the better of her.
When she told them to get the f*ck out of her life....did she really mean it?
Did she hope that they come back to her?...Hell Yes!!
But they all give her space. Knowing she needed time to process what had happened and decide if she still wanted them in her life.
Loved the flowers...LOL and if taking them all back to the Island just so she could see them again, then so be it.
So yes! They do eventually make up, with the strict rule that it was never to happen again. A bit hard to promise with Vero always so out of it with his mental health. But Vero promises to try. That is all she can hope for.
Plenty of open door spice which is just what we all wanted and needed!
As they find their new norm, there is danger that lurks. Kayla can feel it!
Kayla has always trusted her gut, and she knows someone is watching. But who? It can't be her ex, Aaron, as he is in prison.....so who?
Meeting the scarecrow and solving his riddle, means he owes her. But how does The Scarecrow help Kayla?
When he enters Ares bar where she works and sits and tells her another riddle....she is perplexed. She knows the answer, but he is gone before she can respond.
Hmmm. I now realise just what that riddle meant....yay go me LOL!
Ok, so life becomes reasonably normal, if that can be a thing with Brawley, Vero, Ares, and Clay, but Kayla feels safe. Which for her is a big thing!
But the stalker is watching and waiting.....
As the guys try and fix the carousel, cos you know....it was broken by them, during their chase with Kayla and Vero.....Kayla is left to her own devices......And yep, there it is....The End until book 3! An ending I did not see coming!
Bring on Book 3, cos I really need to know...like right now, what the f*ck happens.....LOL.

I downloaded this book at 12:01am… I’m invested.

Part 2 of Fear Island Part 2 somehow managed to take all the chaos and emotional destruction from the first part and make me even more attached to these characters. After Vero’s breakdown, so much of this installment is about things slowly coming back together again, and I loved every second of it.

The relationship dynamics are genuinely the highlight for me. Brawley and Vero continue to be EVERYTHING — there’s something so intense and strangely tender about them that makes every interaction hit harder. At the same time, watching Ares and Clay finally start being honest with themselves *and* with Kayla was so satisfying. You can feel all the walls cracking little by little, and it makes the emotional tension unbearable in the best way.

And SCARECROW??? Ever since the first book kept mentioning him, I knew there had to be a reason. There was no way someone got brought up that often without becoming important later. I was absolutely proven correct because those final pages had me sitting there going “NOOOOO OH MY GOD” over and over again. Also he just creeps me out... maybe thats why im so interested...

Aaron coming back was genuinely insane. Bringing Kayla’s abusive ex back into the story and having him attempt to kidnap her added such an intense layer of fear and urgency to everything. And then having Scarecrow interrupt it??? I was LOSING MY MIND. It completely shifted the energy of the story and raised the stakes again right when I thought I understood where things were heading.

What I love most is that it feels like all five characters — Brawley, Vero, Kayla, Ares, and Clay — are moving toward something explosive together. The carousel scene was AMAZING, but now I desperately want an even more involved scene with all five of them interacting emotionally and romantically at once. Maybe I’m greedy, but this group dynamic is too good not to want more of it.

I need the next part immediately because this ending was cruel in the best way possible.

I'm Not Scared Parts 1, 2 & 3 – JAYE Pratt ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I absolutely loved this new Masked Men of Fear Island series.

I'm reviewing all three books together because I devoured them back to back in under five hours. 😂 Since each novella ends on a cliffhanger until the third book, they really feel like one complete story.

Watching the dynamics between Kayla, Clay, Brawley, Vero, and Ares unfold was one of my favourite parts. Every character brings something different to the story, and their personalities, strengths, and flaws complement each other perfectly. Then there's Vero... 😂 He is completely bonkers in the best possible way, and somehow impossible not to love.

I also adored the found family of misfits that develops throughout the series, and I really enjoyed seeing the side characters woven into the story too.

These books are short, fast paced, and ridiculously addictive. They're marketed as dark romance, but I honestly found myself laughing just as much as I was hooked on the story. 😂 Maybe that's just me. I’m starting to think I have a problem 🤔.

For novellas, they pack an incredible amount of story, character development, humour, and emotion into such a small page count. That's something JAYE Pratt consistently does so well, and it's one of the reasons I enjoy her writing so much.

This entire trilogy was an easy 5-star read for me, and I can absolutely see myself revisiting Fear Island again. I'm already looking forward to the next instalment, Enter If You Dare.

Another easy 5 stars! I seriously flew through this in just a couple of hours. These books are so addicting, and I honestly couldn't put it down.

This one definitely raises the stakes, and the ending WOW. It leaves off on an absolutely insane cliffhanger. Thankfully all three parts are already out because there is no way I could have waited after that ending! 😂

One thing I really loved in this installment was getting more of Kayla's backstory. She is such a strong, badass FMC, and learning more about her just made me love her even more.

I also continue to love the dynamic between all five characters. They each have such different personalities, but they fit together so perfectly. You can really feel how much they care about each other in their own unique ways, and that's one of my favorite parts of this series.

The spice was just as good as the first book, and I am still obsessed with all of the MMCs. Vero is still my favorite, but Brawley, Clay, and Ares all bring something completely different to the group, and I honestly love them all.

I did figure out one of the big twists before it happened, and I was so excited when I realized I was right! It didn't take away from the story at all it actually made me even more invested to see everything unfold.

This series just keeps getting better, and I was immediately diving into part three.

“Everyone here has trauma, and everyone is broken— some beyond repair. There is no judgment when things get hard; we all band together and get shit done.”
~ Ares
This quote perfectly captures the heart of this book. The way Kayla, Ares, Clay, Brawley and Vero bond creating their own family unit is so endearing. Their connection is definitely my favorite aspect of their story.

Kayla, Clay, Vero, Brawley, and Ares find their way back to each other following the bar fiasco in Book 1. Vero remains my favorite character. He is still unhinged, insane, and most definitely lovable. Despite his chaotic nature, he has an innocence to him that makes me want to protect him. His increased understanding and personal growth following the bar incident made me love him even more. Every character experiences a level of personal growth as they learn to lean on one another. They all seemed to have something new they needed to discover within themselves.

Kayla feels uneasy, feeling like she is being hunted and most definitely not in the fun way. With an invisible threat to Kayla the group tries to uncover who is threatening their girl. This threat leads to a giant cliffhanger, creating a giant WTF moment. Trust me this one is a doozy.

I will just sit here and, “patiently,” wait for book 3…

Scarecrow

This is the second part of what is turning into a deliciously addictive dark journey for me.
I’m completely hooked!

It picks up right where the cliffhanger left us, in such a stressful moment that had me screaming, “No, no…”, but the cliffhanger in this book made me want to pull my hair out.
Still, I’m confident in Scarecrow.

In the first book, it was all about finding acceptance and discovering new and exciting things, even with fear getting in the way.
In this book, they face fears and emotions head-on, without missing the hilarious and steamy moments.

Our MMCs are morally grey, possessive, and total walking red flags — and I think that’s exactly what makes them so captivating, frustrating, and perfect for our FMC.

We have an FMC who had to fight for her independence — and she won.
She has a strong spirit, but also a huge soft spot for our MMCs, even if it’s easier for her to admit it with some of them than with others.

She may not be afraid of the dark, but strong feelings are a completely different story.
The distinct personalities of our MMCs and the emotions they awaken in her are something she never expected.

I can’t wait for the next book.

🎠🪦⚰️ ARC Review ⚰️🪦🎠

I thought the cliffhanger from part 1 was something…now I’m actively sitting on my couch trying not to overthink life. I need to know what’s next. It’s honestly an emergency.

Everything about this book was just perfection. From the moment I read the first sentence- I was immediately hooked…it was like I was back and never left.
I find more and more of an appreciation towards each of the MMCs with each book. Clay? I think he’s got to be my favorite for multiple reasons. And the shower scene was probably one of the most intimate moments between him and who he claims as ‘his’ 😫 Ares? I feel like I’m starting to understand him better and he doesn’t give himself enough credit. Brawley? I knew he had fallen for his Double P before he did…but when he put his hand around her throat during the yarn scene 🥵 Vero? The things he would do for his paper cut princess knows no bounds. We’ve already gotten a taste of what all of them are willing to do to protect what’s theirs.

Still wondering about Cave and his riddles. Color me intrigued…

“The contract in your inbox? Take it seriously. The wristband? Never take it off. And your safe word? Remember it.”
Jaye Pratt is honestly a genius! Thank you for this ARC opportunity- I can’t wait for part 3 🌽💀

I'm Not Scared-Part Two tosses readers right back into the amazing chaos that is Kayla, Clay, Vero, Brawley, and Ares. When Vero has a really bad episode he does something that almost causes them to lose Kayla. But honestly, who could stay away from these men. They may be walking red flags but they are transparent, doting, and show they really care for her. In this book, we get to see Kayla get to know each guy better and further explore their relationships. Vero is so sweet, hilarious, and just so Vero. He is unique and precious. Brawley is so protective of those he cares about and I hope he continues to let Kayla in. Every time he lets her in, my heart just melts. Clay is still a complete alphahole. But I absolutely love him. Once he claims you there is no going back. Their banter is everything. Kayla even gets Ares to open up. And of course, there is Cave. He is mysterious, reclusive, and a total wildcard. But he keeps appearing and giving Kayla riddles. Although Kayla and the guys are trying to figure out their future she can't forget her past. This book does end with a brutal flipping cliffhanger. Seriouly, Jaye! I need some comfort nuggets and sour gummy worms! Part Three can't come soon enough!

JAYE PRATT COUNT YOUR DAYS AFTER THAT ENDING!!!!

I am actually unwell after finishing this book 😭 *I’m Not Scared Part 2* consumed my entire brain and then ended in the most disrespectful way possible. That cliffhanger?? Criminal behavior.

The tension in this book was INSANE. Every conversation felt loaded, every character felt suspicious, and I spent the whole time trying to figure out who was lying, hiding things, or about to ruin Kayla’s life next. The emotional whiplash deserves compensation.

Kayla has me in a chokehold because she feels so messy and real. She wants to protect herself so badly, but these men just keep tearing down every wall she puts up. And the men?? Vero, Brawley, Clay, Ares… walking red flags fueled by trauma and obsession, which unfortunately is exactly my type apparently.

But THE SCARECROW??? Why am I emotionally attached to this creepy little menace now? Every scene with him had me completely locked in.

Fear Island honestly feels like one giant nightmare carnival, and I am obsessed with it. I laughed, stressed, giggled, panicked, and then stared at my wall after that ending trying to process my life choices. I need book 3 immediately because there’s no way I’m surviving peacefully after this.

"Everyone here has trauma, and everyone is broken"

Okay I need book three immediately because this cliffhanger was brutal. How am I supposed to sleep after that?

I loved the absolutely over top way Vero apologizes. It continues day after day until she has to return to the island...to tell them off...or at least that was what she thought. Kayla is missing her chaotic men.

I loved how we got to know the men better. Seeing more of who they each are was enlightening. I was surprised that even Clay was letting her in.

We get to meet the scarecrow briefly. He is full of riddles and your answers determine what happens next. I can't wait to get his story.

Kayla and the men are finding their way and it's beautiful. She fits in perfectly on the island and finds herself wanting bro leave less and less. Especially when she starts to feel like someone is watching her but that someone doesn't creep like one of her men.

When her past shows up things get interesting but if course that's also where we get left dangling. Goid thing we don't have to wait too long because I'm falling for these broken men and I need to see how this goes down.

So all I can say is my love for Vero is holding my heart. Because he just so damn adorable even if he is mentally insane 🤣🤣. I could love him if he was real and give him nuggets🤣. Also I love that we got a little deeper with the men because it was touching to see different sides of them regardless of their demeanors. Especially learning more about Ares. Kayla is definitely a female I could be friends with. She isn’t like other women in some books I read. She shows her strength and not clueless or delusional. She accepts people for what they are and that makes her one of my favorite females. Also I know who Luca was without the book telling who Luca was. Use context clues and you can piece it together….such an asshole. I’m also glad we got a little more of Cave because I definitely want to know his story. Definitely feel like he will be her saving grace even though she will owe him two favors. One thing I can say is that I wish the spicy scenes were a little longer because I feel like we deserved more with that carousel scene. It just cuts off with Vero thrusting in and it’s over. But other than that love love love this book and soooooooo excited for Book 3.

ARC REVIEW

*Screams* another cliffhanger!!!!! I'm dying here. But in the best way possible. The second part of I'm not scared is absolutely awesome! I could not put it down. I kept wanting to know what was happening. I did have the twist figured out. But the ending....OMG I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING!!!! I am so freaking ready for part 3 and pray there's not a long wait.

I loved Vero in the first book but I fell even more in love with him in this one. Getting to see different sides of Brawley, Clay and Ares made me love them. And we finally got to meet Cave! Despite only a brief appearance in this one, I am eager to see more of him. He's very intriguing!

I cannot get enough of these books and I'm excited this is turning into a multi part series. The masked men series is awesome, I love that they are standalones. But this one being all one story is AMAZING! I love getting to see more of these characters instead of just one book. I was hooked on Jayes books from the masked men series, but consider me fully addicted now!

ARC REVIEW:

I'm Not Scared Part Two
By Jaye Pratt

4/5 ⭐ || 2.75/5 🌶

“That’s the thing nobody tells you about panic attacks. It’s like your body is convinced it’s dying and the harder you try to breathe the more the air won’t come.”

“I’m Not Scared Part Two” by Jaye Pratt is another outstanding instalment in the Masked Men of Fear Island series. Featuring one of the most memorable casts I’ve encountered, it’s a story I’ll continue to obsess over. The relatable moments, emotional and mental struggles, added spice, and humour all contribute to its originality, keeping me deeply engaged with every page.

Specifically, I loved, how we were given greater insight into the background of the FMC Kayla beyond the information we already had from book one, which allowed us to understand better the struggles she went through to become such a strong individual allowing for the perfect dynamic with the 4 MMC’s.

Once again Pratt has given me new standards of what to expect in a man as well as questioning whether or not red flags are really a bad thing after all.

Intense, Emotional, and Impossible to Put Down
If you thought part one was intense, I’m Not Scared Part Two by Jaye Pratt takes everything to another level. This book had me completely hooked from the beginning with all the suspense, emotional twists, and chemistry between the characters.
The author does a great job pulling you into the story and making you feel every moment right alongside the characters. There were so many scenes that had me stressed, emotional, and unable to stop reading because I needed to know what would happen next. The pacing was great and the darker emotional moments balanced well with the romance and tension.
I also loved how the characters continued to develop in this part of the story. You really become invested in what happens to them. If you enjoy dark romance with suspense, emotional depth, and strong chemistry, this is definitely worth reading.
Highly recommend for readers who love addictive romance series that keep you thinking about the characters long after finishing the book.

This book starts by reliving the end of Part One, but through Kayla's POV so we can see what she was thinking in that moment. I liked that we got to see it through her eyes and how she felt about it.

I wish there would've been more groveling and that Kayla would've pushed back a little more about what happened. It just seemed a little too fast and easy.

We learn more about Kayla and her past, which better explains her behaviour. I loved getting more from Ares in all the ways. He's so peculiar, and I loved seeing his walls come down a little. Brawley and Vero's relationship is just the best, and I love them. Clay is such an alphahole but also so protective.

I enjoyed seeing more of the island and people there. I hope there's going to be a lot of books in this series because I'm loving the island, characters, and vibes! I didn't know there was going to be a part three, and so the cliffhanger wrecked me! I need the next book like now lol

I’m Not Scared Part 2 by Jaye Pratt
Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice - 🌶️🌶️

⚠️Your wellbeing comes first, so please read the trigger warnings before proceeding.⚠️

🚩Please Note - Part 1 finishes on cliffhanger. To have a better understanding it’s best to read the series in order.🚩

I found that this time around, the dynamics weren’t solely focused on Vero, Brawley, and Kayla, but were much broader. While Part 1 gave us some insight into who Clay, Ares and Crave are, this installment adds far more depth to their respective personalities and characteristics.

The spice may be toned down this time around, but the deeper insight and clarity into what makes Kayla such a baddie will keep you hooked from start to finish.

Thoughts -
🪦That ending!
🪦Part 3, Cannot come soon enough.

I would like to thank Jaye Pratt, for this fantastic opportunity. I received this advanced reader copy in exchange for my honest opinion.🖤🖤

✨️ ARC Review ✨️ - I'm Not Scared Part Teo by Jay Pratt- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

After finishing Part One, I was lucky enough to jump straight into I'm Not Scared Part Two as an ARC reader. Thank goodness, because I desperately needed to know what happened next.

Well... I absolutely flew through this book, completely consumed by these characters and their story. I was so invested that the ending seemed to come out of nowhere... and then I realised why.

Another. Bloody. Cliffhanger.

So now, once again, I'm sitting here needing the next book immediately.

These five still have me in a chokehold. I loved seeing some of their softer sides and watching them settle into life together. There was growth, forgiveness, healing, and moments that reminded me why I've become so attached to all of them.

Am I ready for what Jaye Pratt has planned next? Absolutely not.

Do I need Part Three right now? Absolutely yes.

Part 2 somehow managed to crank the chaos up even higher, and I ate up every second of it. This series has such a wild energy to it. Dark, addictive, emotional, and just unpredictable enough to keep me glued to the page way past bedtime.

The character dynamics are what really keep me invested. Watching everyone orbit around Kayla in completely different ways is fascinating, but Vero still owns my heart. Every scene with him hits differently. And Cave? I need answers immediately. There is definitely more to his story, and now I’m desperate to know what’s hiding under the surface.

And that ending??? Absolutely criminal. I closed the book and just stared at the wall for a minute. Part 3 cannot come fast enough.

My only complaint is that I wanted way more begging after the fallout from Part 1. Kayla deserved at least a little extra groveling before everything moved forward.

Absolutely loved Part Two of I'm Not Scared and will be counting down the days until I can read the next instalment of this wonderfully dark and twisted series. This story picks up where the first book ended so you definitely need to read these books in order to understand this story as we follow the fiercely independent and sassy Kayla and her band of unhinged but highly lovable men Vero, Brawley, Clay and Ares. Even though more was revealed in this story about Kayla's past and her developing relationship with each of the men, I still have so many questions. This fast paced story will have you glued to the pages as the drama, suspense, mystery, banter, humour and quirks of these characters draws you into this new world. I am so intrigued about Cave and his riddles I can't wait to read more about Fear Island....looking forward to Part Three!!!!

ARC Reader Confessional – I'm Not Scared: Part Two (Masked Men of Fear Island) by Jaye Pratt

After finishing Part One, I needed answers… and Part Two definitely kept me hooked.

The mystery, tension, and masked men chaos continue, but this time I felt even more invested because I was already attached to the characters and completely curious about where everything was heading. The suspense kept things moving, and I found myself flying through pages trying to piece everything together.

Jaye Pratt continues to make these books ridiculously easy to read. The writing flows well, the characters keep you invested, and somehow I’m becoming more committed to my masked men era with every book 😮‍💨🎭

Overall, another fun, addictive read that kept me entertained from start to finish.

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

I'm loving this new series! I'm Not Scared- Part Two follows the same characters from book one Kayla, Clay, Vero, Brawley, and Ares. This picks up where book one ended with Kayla telling the guys to leave her alone. When Kayla goes back to the island she meets the Scarecrow while running from the guys and makes a new friend.

We learn more about Kayla's past and what happened with the ex before Kyle. We also learn about Ares and the manipulation that he uses. Kayla starts working at the bar with Ares on her days off from The Pit. While working with Ares and spending more of her time with the guys she lets her guard down and doesn't realize that she is being watched by someone who wants to hurt her.

This is book two of the Masked Men of Fear Island, that ends in a cliffhanger and should be read in series order. 5/5⭐ and 3.5/5🌶️

Another cliffhanger! Why are you doing this to me Jaye? I need part three right now.

I’m such a big fan of Vero; he might be a little crazy, but he’s incredibly sweet and kindhearted. I love his bond with Brawley, and when Kayla is with the two of them, things really heat up. I’m starting to warm up to Clay, and while Ares is still a bit of a mystery, the one I’m most curious about is Crave.

I can’t get enough of these books. I need more. I’m Not Scared – Part Two: Masked Men of Fear Island comes out on May 13, and it’s one you won’t want to miss.

I'm not scared masked men of fear island Part 2 by Jaye Pratt Author
I'm so excited at how this story is unfolding, the tension, the playful games, the heat🥵, THE PLOT TWISTS just keep surprising me!

Clay is still my Favorite and I love seeing how Kayla just keeps melting each one of these unhinged MMC's, But Cave "the scarecrow" I think there is more to his story and I can't wait till we get there!

I will gladly take a Part 3, I ATE up Part 2 like it was nothing....kinda wish these parts were longer, that's how much I want more!!
