Oh my god the YEARNING 💔🥺 🙏 🐺

“I should push him away, but I can’t. He lets go of my wrists, using his now free hand to brush my hair away from my neck. His mouth is there, pressing kisses and then his tongue flicks out, tasting me and I can’t help the whimper that escapes my lips. ‘That’s my good fucking girl,’ he says, voice low and rough, like it’s a secret he’s sharing with me alone.”
Yesssir 🥵

“The little psychopath was actually bewitching. Suddenly exasperated, she threw her hands in the air. “Cut me some slack! This is the weirdest thing that’s ever happened to me. Which is saying something, considering I once accidentally joined a cult because they had really good tacos.”” 😂 Yay for fun heroines!

“There was a time I couldn’t wait to leave this place. Now, I can’t imagine growing old anywhere but here. I think about that girl. The one who wanted out. The one who believed the world owed her something bigger and better than this place. I don’t miss her exactly, but I wonder when she stopped being me. Without my ex, would I have become who I am now?”
Wish I knew, Sis….

Meh

“Standing one step above him, we were almost eye-level. I seized the advantage, letting it embolden me. “You’re not coming up here.” My voice fell loudly, echoing in the tomblike space. “Scared of what I’ll do to you?” My pulse jackknifed against my throat. His eyes glittered like an animal’s in the shadows of the stairwell. The air was electric, like he would erupt any moment into fire and ash.”

Ughhhh nothing like that feeling where you’re so into the book that you’re walking around with it so you don’t have to stop 🤩🤌

That PROLOGUE 😮 👀

“He didn’t want to be rough with his wife. He wanted to learn to be gentle with her. He wanted her to give him the chance to be. 
But sometimes, like right now, he also wanted her to beat the shit out of him.” 😆

““Tell me you want me,” Varrik murmurs against my mouth. “Tell me you want me to take these clothes off of you and taste between your thighs. Tell me you want to be mine in all ways.”
I suck in a breath, pulling away when he tries to kiss me again. “I’m already yours in all ways. I’m your slave, remember?””

““I’ve killed every single person that’s ever hurt you, that's how it’s always gonna be. I’m just hoping that having you close, and you being mine, means fewer people have to die.”
I have no idea how, but I’m pretty sure he just made murder sound romantic.
I’m totally blaming the pregnancy hormones for that.” 😂 🩶
What a sweet little psycho she found herself!👌

“The gravy and the potatoes are for his dog Mavis. Mavis is one of those big poodle mixes. I don't blame Mark for treating his dog special. She's smarter than most people I've met. If I had a Mavis, I'd feed her smothered mashed potatoes too.” 😂
My Mavis is obsessed with blueberry kefir, so I can’t really talk… 🐶

I’ve been soooo looking forward to this after loving DMATMOOFIL…Unfortunately I’m not feeling this one in the same way 😭 Mired in very detailed medical stuff about terminal illness, combined with zero attraction or chemistry so far imo. I need a break!

Ok this alien planet world-building is pretty cool. If the asteroid never killed the dinosaurs, who coexist with humanoids…but make it medieval. ⚔️🐲🀄️

I’d been holding out hope that “waterworks” meant something else. 😂🫣 This gal just loves educating me in tabooey tho 📋🙉

Yeah this adorable man is 💯% my new book boyfriend.

Ok Easton’s parents are AMAZING 😍

“Cleo’s plan for ruining Rafaele’s life:
+ Bankrupt him
+ Redecorate his house
+ Get a dog—a big and scary one who’ll keep him away from me
+ Identify all of his hopes and dreams
+ Ruin them
+ Never, ever, under no circumstances, even if there’s a gun to my head, sleep with him
The plan is as chaotic as my personality, but I feel good about this. Really good.” 😂 Good luck Cleoooo

“The moment we make contact feels like a rip in the universe. There’s nothing soft about this kiss. Ras’s mouth grinds against mine, his tongue snaking its way inside and claiming territory. He tastes like the whiskey he drank at the club. He kisses like he wants to conquer me.” 🔥 🔥 🔥 oh it’s onnn

Demi Sweet and Stone Harding? Really? 🤣

Sadly this book is wayyy too slow. Enough torture, literally. 😤

“Now, let’s make sure you can’t sneak off again. If you attempt it, I’ll pin you in place with my cock, and you can fall asleep on it.”
🚩 LET THE STOCKHOLM GAMES BEGIN 🚩

“Because I still loved her… after all this time… and I’d never stopped. Not even for a second. I had loved her then, and I loved her now, and I’d loved her all the time in between. I’d hated her, and I’d missed her, and I’d envied her, and I’d coveted her…
And through it all… I’d loved her.
Loving her was my one constant. My love for her was true north.” 😍🥹🤌

14 years celibate? Now THAT’S what I’m talking about. 🙌 Other second-chance heroes, take notes. 📝

When you’re SO excited to start the sequel that just came out today, and you start reading…only to realize you can’t remember what the acolytes are or what happened with the Moon Goddess or why the bond happened. Dammit 😆

“Are you going to run, little witch?” he whispered, in a voice full of dark promise as I watched his body tense with anticipation. “Because in case you were wondering, orcs love chasing their prey.” He grinned, his fangs gleaming in the light and I backed up another step.
“I don’t run,” I tried to scoff, but my voice was way too breathy for that. “I don’t even like cardio.” 😆

I feel like this is a metaphor for I.C.E. raids 😭 and am getting irrationally angry at a fictional coven of tracking witches.

“I was a pool of post-orgasmic goo and the male who’d gotten me there was right behind me, his pheromones still hitting me right in my hypothalamus. All it was aware of was that I was a female in my prime and this male would give my eggs the best babies.
I mean, they would be exceptionally cute babies.”

Literally no one could blame her 🤭

I feel like this has devolved into photo shoots of cat outfits on repeat, the friend group being shrill on repeat, and Jax saying all kinds of possessive stuff in bed right before they both go back to pretending they’re just roommates with bennies. On repeat. Where’d the story go? 🧐
