Okay, so I didn’t mean to break the guy out of prison and become his pretty little hostage. It just kinda happened. Can you blame me? Vicious murder tendencies aside, he’s one hell of a snack!
Stone Blackthorne. Even his name rubs me the right way.
Sure, he might be a convicted felon and be the most wanted man on Earth, but under all of those red flags, he’s probably a really nice guy. Just misunderstood.
Screw red. Stone’s flags are pitch black, but that’s the way I like it.
Want me to be your filthy little hostage? Okay. Just tell me how loud I should beg.
Need me to scream and make a break for it through the woods while you chase me, mask optional? You won’t see me complaining.
But want to put me at the top of your kill list for reasons completely beyond my control? Now that’s where I draw the line.
I know I’m a good girl at heart, but sometimes even the good girls need to be a little bad.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ [ 4 Star Review ] ☀︎ ❥ ☀︎ OPPS! I'M WANTED AGAIN ☀︎ ❥ ☀︎ Is a full length Dark Prison Break Rom-Com book by author Sheridan Anne. Spoken in dual POV's.
Tropes: 💣 Enemies to Lovers 💣 Escaped prisoner 💣 On the run 💣 Grumpy | Sunshine 💣 Touch her and die 💣 Mistaken identity
As soon as I saw those teasers dropping I knew I had to grab this, love the tropes, love the cover, love the author, no brainer to read it..
God where to even start with this, I grabbed my coffee, sat down on my comfy couch and before I knew it I'd finished this, this author has such an uncanny knack at pulling me in, everything I've read by her are unique, unforgettable, unputdownable and leave you craving more.
She was there (wrong time, right place) to get the story of a lifetime, only to be smack dab in the middle of a riot, men in there for unthinkable crimes have one thing they want...Her...And they will stop at nothing to get her. Her only salvation is to rely on Stone the notorious killer to save her..
Stone Blackthorne, is currently serving a life time sentence for murder but his story isn't so cut and dry, there's many holes in his story which don't add up, and like a dog with a bone Aria is going to prise them out of him. She's followed his story since his incarceration and is prepared to throw some hard questions his way.
I loved these two, the banter, the twists and turns, the reconnecting, on the run, dodging cops, this threw everything it could at me and I lapped up every second of it.

2.5⭐️ Started strong, but the prison riot was the beginning of the end. Can we please stop calling books rom-coms when they’re not funny and the romance is basically nonexistent? Friendly reminder: banter ≠ humor.
I really liked this one! It kind of has an abrupt ending and less rom com feel for me but I really enjoyed the storyline and both main characters. Definitely worth the read!
After about 40% I skimmed this pretty hard. It started out promising but the characters just didn't do it for me and the whole storyline wasn't all that interesting. Honestly one of my most hated tropes so that's on me, but either way I already wasn't enjoying the writing of these characters before that came into play.
If you ask me what made me add this one to my TBR, I wouldn't be able to tell you. But my best guess would be the cover and the fact that it was marketed as a a dark rom com. Other than that, I had absolutely no clue what this book was about. I went into this one completely blind, and all I am going to say is, SHAME ON ALL OF YOU FOR NOT RECOMMENDING THIS BOOK TO ME!
Like why is no one talking about this book? Some of y'all call yourself influencers but not a single one of you influenced me to read this book and that was a damn shame and since no one influenced me, I'll just be the one to influence you!
Like I had mentioned, I went into this book completely blind and I am so glad I did because it was like a box of chocolates, I didn't know what I was gonna get and what I got was a journalist who nailed THE interview of the century with a ruthless prisoner who is serving several life sentences behind bars after brutally killing six men only for there to be a prison riot during the interview which results in a prison break. Now the journalist is on the run with this prisoner only to find out they have a past! PLOT TWIST! When I tell you, this plot gave me life! I was living for the plot. I thought the plot was unique and fun. Yes there are dark elements in this book but it definitely learned into the rom com side with snarky banter that made me giggle.
I did listen to the audiobook for Oops! I'm Wanted Again and what I tell you it was absolute perfection! It is duet narration by Brooke Daniels and Lee Samuels and these two did a fabulous job at bringing this book to life. By far my favorite thing about this audiobook was Brooke. Her narration was so beautiful. Her inflections and how she narrated felt very conversational which made you almost forget that you were reading. Not to mention I felt like her voice was very soothing.
Overall, this will go down as one of my favorite reads this year! So please put this one on your TBR!

I listened to the audio of this one and it was sooo good.
This follows Aria who has just got her big break and secured an interview with convicted felon Stone Blackthorne, currently serving life for murder. But Stones story has holes and Aria is determined to find out the truth. Imagine her surprise when she finds out she’s top of his murder list for reasons unknown to her and oh yeah, she’s currently helping him escape prison!
“How did my big break, turn into his big break out?” – Aria Ashford
Not your usual story line which I LOVED as it leaves you guessing how Aria and Stone are getting out of their situation.
I really can’t say much more about this without spoilers but you have to read this.
What to expect: 🔪 prison break 🔥 unhinged decisions 💋 questionable flirting at the worst possible times 🚔 on the run 😈 morally grey everything
There’s also a bonus scene at the end of this book that you NEED to read!!
Sheridan is an expert at writing hot, dangerous men. In whom, by 3 or 4 chapters have me and the FMC in a literal chokehold. Stone is 6'7", a beast locked up to serve 190years, give or take, and in the end you will be rooting for his HEA.
Sometimes people do bad things for good reasons. Sometimes people get dealt crap hands. This is a book of unfolding truths, healing and new beginnings. Lots of laughs and struggles, she said dark romcom and well it was. I laughed, I swooned, and I got a little grossed out.
There's a few spicy scenes that are incredible. The danger, the living and loving in the moment.
It sounded good. The first chapter was loud, thought maybe it was a cover but up until I called it quits, this was read with a grimace. I found Aria to be the one that you hope dies in a horror asap. Stone was alright. The illustrations cut off any character imagination. I was curious about why and what happened that night but it was loud and Aria gave me a headache. Not for me.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Stone in prison for life but with a vendetta to uphold. Aria, a journalist gets the scoop on his story and then their world is turned upside down. She is the top of his k!ll list, though once you start reading you get the reasons why. Her banal banter is amusing, her non stop chattering in order to antagonise him is great. Stone spent 7 years building himself up and as such is a big, wall of muscles not to mention his height too.
It was a relatively quick read, that flowed well within the parameters that gives us a plot with some amusing moments, spicy times, violence/m^*der leading us toward their HEA.
This book is a bad room com that would have went straight to DVD . The book is not funny . The banter was awful The bumbling FMC is not endearing . The plot or lack of was awful .
I downloaded this book based on a Tik Tok book recommendation from this girl and I’ve discovered a few things while trying to trudge through this awful book .
I loathe “ rom com books “ I don’t know her name but she’s annoying as hell and she gives the absolute fucking worst book recommendations on earth . When I find that slag’s page I will insert her name . She listed this as one of the spicier books she read this year . If this is spicy I’m Gonna assume she’s a virgin .
As always, Sheridan has killed it again with this one !! First of all, she didn’t tell anyone she was releasing it and then BAM, amazing dark romcom. I have loved every Sheridan book I have read. They are always dark and make you connect with every single one of her characters. This one was no different, but she added some amazing humor for a twist. The build up of enemies to lovers took a whole new level because the two main characters have a twisted past you don’t see coming. I loved everything about this one !
I love Sheridan Anne's books, and this was no exception. The tension, action, angst, humor, and spice were top notch. Stone is now at the top of my list for book boyfriends lol. There was enough going on in the book that I was entertained & wondering what would happen next throughout the whole book, which I finished in 24 hours. Also, if you read it on Kindle, there's a link at the end to get a bonus ending and I highly recommend reading that if you enjoyed the rest of the book.
4.75 stars I absolutely devoured this! I love the whole concept of this book. Sheridan's writing is 10/10 as always. It flowed so well with twists and turns. I love a sassy FMC and protective MMC. If you are looking for a book that delivers on ups and downs, banter, tough love and sweet endings this is for you!! Happy reading xo
I’m a lil disappointed in this one I won’t lie. I went in with high hopes, and was so stoked to get my hands on the SE of this book from an event last month however it did not wow me at all. Overall it was just average, the banter really wasn’t all that great and the spice didn’t win me over either.
I’m not sure I’d call it a rom-com more dark romance 😅 between the prison riot and all the murder, there was no lightening the mood. I did enjoy it, though. It just felt like there was something still missing.
All through the prison riot and the subsequent escape, I was all in on this. However, everything after that section of the book kind of went downhill for me and I just found myself having less and less fun as the book went on.
The ending though was the absolute killer for me. I'm sorry, but . I don't know, words can't describe how unsatisfying that conclusion was.
Stone is the biggest red flag… but it’s fine, we’re all conveniently colour blind here 🚩💀 Just know this: dark prison break rom-com. That’s it. Go in blind
