Hidden love de MINK


Argumento:

Una colección de cuentos de MINK donde el amor es inesperado, disfrazado o completamente oculto.

Pero el amor no puede esconderse por mucho tiempo.

Con la nueva historia, Hidden Love.

Mariana no es el tipo de mujer con la que alguna vez esperé tener una
oportunidad. No cuando soy un ejecutor malo, alguien que no debería estar a diez pies de alguien tan inocente como Mariana.

Pero no puedo deshacerme de mi necesidad de tenerla, y cuando ella me mira con esos ojos grandes, puedo sentir el calor detrás de ellos. Ella me quiere igual de mal.

Así que la poseo, toda ella, y reclamó su cuerpo y alma para mí. Ella es la única que ha podido domesticar a mi corazón violento.

Pero tenemos un pasado lleno de sombras, y hay una en particular que tendremos que enfrentar antes de que podamos comenzar nuestra nueva vida juntos. Aun así, nunca dejaré que Mariana se me escape de los dedos, pase lo que pase.






Mí humilde opinión:

Esta es una colección de 5 libros cortos de MINK: Stalking Her Sweetly, Stuffed, Beauty and the Boss, His Secret Treasure y por último Hidden.

Descartando Stalking Her Sweetly, me gustaron todos pero voy a dejar una breve opinión del que no leí, Hidden Love.

Estoy contenta de que Fenton y Mariana tuvieran su historia! Me gustó la dupla que hacían, había mucha pasión y conexión entre ellos.

Si, me hubiera gustado que haya más, fue demasiado corta pero con mafia y sangre en medio fue un linda historia con un merecido HEA para estos dos.

Hidden Love is the story of Mariana and Fenton.

You need to read VETTING HIS KITTEN FIRST TO UNDERSTAND THIS BOOK. Kind of.

Anyways insta love, rival mafia’s daughter x broody enforcer, she’s a tough but innocent heroine, he’s dark, possessive alpha hero, she thinks he just wants to fuck her and he wants her forever. She kills her own father and tries to run away from him but he prevents it by telling her just how much and the epilogue ending was so cute how he showed her the meaning behind why he calls her sole which means sun. The steamy scenes were hot like he spanks her, claims her and UGH.

Solid 3.5/5

I loved this story it was short, sweet, steamy, cute, romantic and safe as well😍😍 Fenton fell instantly for the rivals daughter Mariana, but she thought it was just lust. A few misunderstandings and they finally get their revenge and their HEA. Fenton was so sweet and J/P ... and a tiny bit overstrained with his feelings for her at first 🤣 Great story👍👍👍

This is a wonderful collection of 5 romance books. The books included in the bundle are ones that were previously released, except for Hidden Love which is new! The books included are:

Stalking Her Sweetly
I kind of loved this story. It was very entertaining and enjoyable even with the slightly off-kilter subject matter. The characters were interesting and likable (for the most part). Lindsay got her comeuppance which worked for me. Silas is in love with Jamie and has been from the moment that he saw her. He has also been stalking her and keeping her safe as he sees fit. Jamie likes Silas but with as hot as he is, she feels like she just starts babbling around him. Silas is willing to help Jamie with anything she needs his help on. Jamie's reaction to finding out about Silas cracked me up. A lot of their interactions had me cracking up. I loved their happy ever after.

Stuffed
I loved this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable. The characters were interesting and relatable. There were a lot of feels, but I mainly did a lot of laughing.

Kent is an assassin with a job to do, but is waylaid and ends up in jail for a bit. He's positive that he was set up by another assassin trying to take over the contract on the owner of Fill-A-Friend. Kent has done his homework but is still impressed by how deeply embedded Layla is in Fill-A-Friend. She may look cute and innocent but he has to finish the contract and make sure that she doesn't steal it from him.

Layla makes one-of-a-kind stuffies on her off time but works at Fill-A-Friend to pay the bills. She's kind of klutzy, maybe a little ditzy, but she is great at what she does. Layla meets Kent and thinks that he is just amazing and supportive, not to mention very handsome. She's positive that things are going in the right direction and she can't wait to show the owner of Fill-A-Friend her stuffies when he comes to visit.

I loved so much about this story. The internal discussions that Kent has with Paisley CRACKED me up! Layla's friend Gia and her family are awesome and there needs to be more with them. Their happy ever after made me smile.

Beauty and the Boss
I liked this story a lot. It's a little out there, but it's entertaining and enjoyable. The characters are interesting. Georgia was very naive about a great many things but I felt like it just made her sweet.

Liam was super sneaky with how he got his information as well as how he got Georgia to work for him. Georgia's sunny disposition made her the perfect assistant for the grumpy boss and made for some pretty good laughs. I actually liked how jealous/possessive Liam was of his "Sunshine". I loved that Georgia enjoyed poking him about her name. This was short but fun. I loved their happy ever after. Listening to the book is also awesome. The narrator for Liam sounds HOT!

His Secret Treasure
I loved this story. It was very entertaining and enjoyable. The characters were interesting and likable for the most. Shah and Mrs. Pettyford were absolutely wonderful. Totally feel that everyone needs a Mrs. Pettyford in their lives, I know that I do! Pandora was sweet but brave even when she was afraid. The way that she focused on the task but then got distracted in the best ways made me smile every single time. Gaines was an amazing treasure hunter that was special because he recognized that the best treasure is priceless. Pandora and Gaines were the best when they were together. When Gaines was chasing Pandora it was funny since she waiting for him to come and get her. There are plenty of feels in this story. I loved their happy ever after.

Hidden Love
I thought I was prepared for this story, but it turns out that I wasn't. After re-reading the blurb, I got a little more with it, and once I started reading and realized that this story (and the characters) were interconnected to "Vetting His Kitten", I enjoyed the story a lot more. By itself, it was great but knowing that it had characters that had previously been mentioned in "Vetting His Kitten" gave it a bit more oomph! It was entertaining, enjoyable, and a bit steamy. The characters were interesting and likable. Mariana was easy to relate to since she wanted to be loved for herself and that's what most people want. Mariana was surprising with how she made plans and took the initiative even though that wasn't part of her life before. She was prepared to start a whole new life without all the restrictions of being her. Fenton was protective, possessive, and kind of a tease. He didn't tease Mariana in a bad way, but he definitely liked to provoke her to see her reaction. Their banter cracked me up quite a bit. I loved their happy ever after.

My favorite would have to be "Stuffed". I love that book and I'm eagerly waiting for it to come out in audio! I recommend reading any or all of these books. They are wonderful and on my re-read list!

Mariana has just been freed from her father after he moves against Grant, in Vetting His Kitten, and Grant's second, Fenton drives a knife through his heart. Mariana knows this is her one chance to escape but somehting about crass and mouthy Fenton has her hesitating. Is there really a future for him and her? Or will she regret not running when she had the chance?

Fenton knows from the second he sees Mariana that she is the one for him. He knows he's a bit rough around the edges but he'll be damned if he doesn't make Mariana his in every way possible. When she tries to run from him he'll show her that whats going on between them means forever!

Hidden Love is a collection of a few of MINK's books while Hidden Love, the short story of Mariana and Fenton is the only one I have read out of it so far! Being that this is a short story, I do wish we got to see a bit more of these two together before they confessed their undying love for each other!

Still you should read it after finishing Vetting His Kitten!

MINK ticks everyone of my must haves in her latest release.

Sexy, dirty, alpha male, he's ruthless, and he will kill anyone that looks at his Mariana. Though our leading lady doesn't know it yet.

Sold to another family to bring power to her father, she's a means to an end. That's the way of the mafia life. Love doesn't factor into it.

Mariana is the innocent in this, she longs for a different life she wants to makes choices and live a life far removed from this world. When her fathers plan falls apart (her intended is already madly in love with someone else) she agrees to help him.

This is where our lead Fenton comes in. Best friends with Grant. He's cocky, arrogant, brash and tends to be blunt. He doesn't believe in love. But one look at Mariana and the mafia man will falls to his knees for her.

its a yes from me!

I loved all this books in this collection and the new book for Mariana and Fenton.

I thought that this was a really good book. I am really glad that Mariana and Fenton finally got their own book. I loved Fenton's obsession and possessiveness towards Mariana. Mariana grew up in the same life as Fenton but the male/female roles for her life was completely different than what Fenton describes. It was great reading about Mariana finally understanding herself and Fenton and understand that she may be his Sole but he completes his darkness. I can't wait to see what Mink as in store for us next. I really enjoyed this book and I would recommend it and Mink as a must read author.

I received a free e-book copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Hidden Love is a breathtaking collection of stunning and unforgettable love stories. These are some of Mink's best, and they are each a treasure to savor and enjoy. You won't want to miss out on this wonderful box set!

Mink knows how to write THE best stories from the heart and with loads of steam and heat. She is one of my all time favorite authors, and I crave each and every one of her stories. They are perfection wrapped in heat and suspense and tied with a beautiful bow of raw and honest love. Get to know these brilliant books, and remember that Mink is a goddess of romance! Her stories will never let you down.

I was so excited to see a fantastic collection of Mink's books with an extra story! We finally see Fenton and Marianna's happy ending! Loved Marianna's fierceness and Fenton's poor communication of his feelings; it was awesome!

The other books in the collection, I have previously read, loved and reviewed. My thoughts on them: His Secret Treasure focused on stolen treasure, it was so entertaining. I loved Stalking Her Sweetly when it came out. It was adorable and I chortled my way through it! Stuffed was sweet and quirky. I didn't want it to end. Beauty and the Boss was a trope that I love; the grumpy one falling for the sunshiny one and it was fantastic! All the stars for Hidden Love!

4.9 stars

The stories in the book were really well written with what you expect from this author which I love, the reason it’s 4.9 and not a full 5 is I really dislike the cover, it’s the socks and sandals. It was really off putting, although even if not wearing socks n sandals I’m not sure about the cover, sorry.
Great stories including Fenton and Marianne who we first meet in Vetting his Kitten (you don’t need to read it to read Fenton and Mariannes). If your looking for men who worship their women and alpha to boot then this is for you

2...maybe 2.5 stars.
I'm glad to see that Mariana and Fenton got a HEA.
I was all for it when reading Grant's story and saw hard Fenton seemed to fall.
There's not much fleshed out with this story. Honestly, that's probably why it's included with this collections of stories. On it's own the story is maybe 20-30 pages.
The epilogue was kind of not up to MINK standards either. Most of this story consisted of sex and I was a bit peeved that we just got more of that in the epilogue.

**I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book**

Love all of MINK’s stories and this one does not disappoint! It’s packed with a whole lot of insta-love and some awesome alpha males.
*Swoon*
*Fans Face*
Book alpha males are the best!

The newest story is about Fenton and Mariana. She thinks he only wants her to take over father’s territory. Couldn’t be further from the truth. She’s literally all he thinks about. He simply just wants her and shows her by being completely over the top.

"Hidden Love" is the story of Mariana and Fenton.

I will not rate the rest of the books as I've individually reviewed them.

Hidden love however has a couple who was obsessed with each other give into their feelings. There's a jealous possessive hero, feisty heroine and a heartwarming end.

Short story.

I love that we finally got Fenton and Mariana's story. She went to far in her teasing and he broke and gave in. Now she needs to deal with having him for a lifetime but she doesn't realize he actually loves her for her and not for her name.

I loved Fenton and Mariana from start to finish. I love that Fenton calls her Sole and doesn't let her doubts get in the way. Their chemistry is really good and they were perfect together. I will definitely read this again.

Mariana and Fenton story. Fenton works with a rival Mafia family. The same family that Mariana father tries to sell her to but she helps them to get out of it.
From the start there is tons of chemistry between Mariana and Fenton and the book starts out steamy and bloody.

Unusual couples finding their HEA

Quirky mix of stories but highly entertaining. The hit man story was funny and romantic. The treasure Hunter take was my favourite. The mafia couple are a good match and a great team.

eh

I’ve read all the books bar Hidden Love and loved them.
Hidden Love itself was pretty dull. I didn’t like either character and it was novella length, so there wasn’t a super in depth story. On the plus side, really quick to read.
