Darkbriar Revelations
Seven Carter…
I did the crime, and now I’ve been sentenced to do the time.
Only the prison I’m expecting? It isn’t a prison, at all.
It’s a mental health facility for supernaturals, and I am not one of those.
Or, am I?
Not only is Darkbriar more than meets the eye, but I’m also learning my whole life has been one big game of pretend.
They pretended I was their real daughter. They pretended I was normal.
They pretended I was human.
Did they ever really love me?
I’m not sure how much more I can handle.
Then, there’s the four of them…
The Demon. The Incubus. The Terror. The Poltergeist.
They all want me, but can I trust them?
They’ve had secrets from the start, and sooner or later, secrets get found out.
The future has already been set in motion, and it promises something even worse than the revelations that are coming to light at Darkbriar.
War between supernaturals and humans is coming, and I’m the weapon everyone wants.
*** TW: This book contains scenes of a graphic and adult nature. 18+ readers only. If you are sensitive to short scenes of attempted SA, violence, the threat of war, and high steam between MM, MF, AND MFM why choose characters, this book may not be for you. This book is Book 1 in a series and does end on a cliffhanger.

I like it all; Regency romance, rom-com, enemies-to-lovers, bully books, well-done erotica, sci-fi, why-choose, paranormal, you name it. I've got a thousand characters in my head and forty of them screaming for top-billing at any given moment.

This book follows FMC Seven Carter as she is sent to a supernatural institution following a crime she has no memory of committing. Throughout the novel we see her meet 4 alluring supernaturals and discover more about her ambiguous background.
I really enjoyed this book, it was well-rounded with a good mix of world building, plot and relationships. There is plenty of tension amongst the group and twists and turns to keep readers on their toes. I felt that the characters had dimension and did not strictly fall into cliche character moulds. It really felt like we were there with Seven as she is learning new things about the world and herself. The multi-POV style gave us insights into the MMCs as more information was gradually released throughout the novel.
Overall, this was an awesome reverse harem/polyamorous read and is definitely worth giving a read :)

Wow!
I’m not sure how or why I picked up this duet but I am certainly glad that I did! From the very beginning you are sucked in and as secrets and revelations are revealed you feel just as off kilter as Seven does. And then comes the desire, one seriously needs a cold shower or b.o.b. available because the heat level is through the roof!! But that cliffhanger at the end was the biggest bombshell yet! Seriously you don’t want to pass this one by, thankfully the next one is available now!!

amazing!!
I love my reverse harem books but this was definitely one of my top favorites out of all of them! I cant wait to read book 2 bc i couldn’t put the first one down. I finished it in one day it was that amazing. I fell in love with all of the characters. I will most definitely be rereading this series a few times!! 🩷

This book was kind of a mess, with typos and incomplete sentences galore. Story could’ve also used editing, kept having to go back and find out whose POV I was reading. Entertaining enough though!

This is mainly M/M
What an unnecessarily long read, at about 80% after skipping through a lot of M/M smut I got overwhelmed by the non stop non story. A drinking game can be made of the "pushed me into a wall/door" one trick pony here with the smut.
Deep sigh....
Have nothing against M/M but just mentioning a girls name doesn't make it Reverse Harem !!!! Also 80% of this was about boys, nahhh not for me.
Okay the plot had something there then we got the TSTL (too stupid to live) heroine running off half cocked not even asking the right questions...
