MAN IN CHARGE

by Laurelin Paige 

Book Synopsis

The Sebastians own this city.

Hell, they own the whole world.

All I want is one little piece of it, a corner that I can call my own.

So when my boss runs away to “find herself”, I seize the opportunity and dive head first into the Sebastian’s glamorous universe. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted—fast paced and high stakes—and, even though I don’t fit in, I’m excellent at faking it.

Until I come face to face with the man in charge, Scott Sebastian, the arrogant, playboy heir with the mind of a devil and the body of a god and a mouth I can’t stop thinking about.

He’s infuriating. He’s a distraction. He’s the man who wants me in his bed as much as I want to be there.

And, if I get too close, he’ll be the one person who could expose me for what I really am—a fraud. ​

My Review

​Man in charge? Yes please!
 
Paige has created a new and captivating world for her readers to sink their teeth into.
 
While the story between new leading man, Scott Sebastian, and new leading lady Tessa Turani sizzled, I truly appreciated the story line between Tess and her BFF Teyana.
 
While reading we learn more about the debilitating disease called dysautonomia, which Teyana lives with as do so many others worldwide. We are also privy to one bad ass friendship!
 
As someone who suffers from chronic illness, it was incredible to find a character with whom I could relate to and see in Tess a character so much like the best friend I cherish in my life.
 
I can't wait to see what is in store in this new, hot, dynamic world, which orbits around the Sebastian family.
 
Happy Reading!

SLASH - A SLAY SERIES NOVELLA

by Laurelin Paige 

Book Synopsis

Camilla Fasbender has a secret.

Underneath her posh accent and designer clothes lies the evidence of her pain.

Every heartbreak, every bad day, every setback has left a scar.

From behind her camera, she shows the world what to see. And it isn't her.

Until him.

He sees right through her carefully constructed facade.

And he's going to slash it all to pieces.

My Review

​Whether you have traveled into the striking world of Slay, or if this is your first introduction to the series, this is one book that will intrigue all readers alike.
 
Paige has expertly written this novella and Camilla’s tale of abuse in a beautiful way; leaving the character room for humility, showing her inner struggles for self-acceptance in a remarkably relatable way.
 
As the character I had championed for during the entirety of the Slay Series, I couldn't have been more excited to see her get her happily ever after!
 
As Always, Happy Reading!

BLACK SKIES RIVIERA

by Catherine Wiltcher

Book Synopsis

A brand new standalone mafia romance.

Welcome to Black Skies Riviera...
Where the good die young, and the bad live forever.

They call this place the Billionaires’ Playground.
I, Aiden Knight, staked my claim the minute I arrived.
I crossed every line.
I painted their Rococo ceilings with blood.
Now my casino is the hottest church in town,
And vice is the only confession required.
My house.
My rules.
Until the past comes calling with an offer I can’t refuse:
One week to seduce and break her,
For the names of the men who killed my father.

Issa Dubova is the queen of cloudy diamonds:
She’s a hard truth concealed beneath a pall of lies.
I’m an Armani black suit of spades:
Determined to bury both her and my demons.
I never asked to see the shape of her heart.
I never asked for her to fill the blank spaces of mine.

But the mafia wants her secrets.
I wasn’t the first she betrayed.
And Issa? Sweet, not-so-innocent Issa?
She’s gone and left me with a debt no sinner can pay.

My Review

​Cloaked in darkness, with a brutality and crudeness few authors can manage to write so eloquently; Wiltcher delivers an all-consuming punch with this explosive mafia story!
 
While full of dark twists and turns, keeping her readers guessing until the very end, this edgy story is full of vibrancies beautifully captured in its juxtaposition to the vengeance being played out against the beautiful Italian landscape. 
 
Beyond a haunted man seeking vengeance, this is a love story unlike any other that I have read before.  Wiltcher has penned another labor of love, giving this reader in particular, moments of shock and awe that I won’t soon forget!
 
As Always, Happy Reading!
