Read my review of series as a whole
After getting dumped, the last thing I needed was to move next door to someone who reminded me of my ex-boyfriend, Elec.
Damien was a hotter version of my ex.
The neighbor I’d dubbed “Angry Artist” also had two massive dogs that kept me up with their barking.
He wanted nothing to do with me. Or so I thought until one night I heard laughter coming through an apparent hole in my bedroom wall.
Damien had been listening to all of my phone sessions with my therapist.
The sexy artist next door now knew all of my deepest secrets and insecurities.
We got to talking.
He set me straight with tips to get over my breakup.
He became a good friend, but Damien made it clear that he couldn’t be anything more.
Problem was, I was falling hard for him anyway. And as much as he pushed me away, I knew he felt the same…because his heartbeat didn’t lie.
I thought my heart had been broken by Elec, but it was alive and beating harder than ever for Damien.
I just hoped he wouldn’t shatter it for good.
This is a standalone novel, a spin-off from Stepbrother Dearest.
People dream of a love that runs deep. So deep it feels like it’s always been with you, just waiting for the person who’ll own your heart and soul forever. So few ever find it, but for Rhyson Gray and Kai Pearson, happily ever after was only the beginning…
One of the biggest rock stars in the world and one of the brightest rising stars make a life together. Sometimes it’s glamour-filled days and blissed out nights, but it’s mostly staying true in the too-bright glare of the spotlight. It’s long stretches where the road is lonely and the work is hard. It’s living in a love that’s the safest place you know even while danger lurks at your door.
This is the third and final book in the Soul series.

An all-consuming second chance romance where the past becomes the only key to unlocking the future, this is a timeless love story of two people whose shared memories guide them back to one another. Renée Carlino is an author whose stories always make the heart grow tenfold, but with this book she brought mine to the point of bursting.
This story immediately piqued my interest with its intriguing premise of a fictional future king of England leading a double life, but it was the sheer brilliance of Lilah Pace’s style of storytelling, her unwavering focus on her characters, and the powerful emotions she keeps building on until the end, that held me captive until the very last page. This was a truly stunning love story—told over two equally riveting books—that I am recommending with all my heart.
This is a story of survival, a story of sacrifice, a story about the legacies we are born into and the ones we choose to perpetuate—but most of all, this is a story about a young woman bravely forging her own path in life, and the many devastating lessons she is forced to learn along the way. As we delve into some of the darkest corners of all that love entails, we are also taken onto an unexpected journey of self-inquiry, exploring the limits of our own capacity for compassion, acceptance, forgiveness—all the while steered forward by the creative genius of an author who draws us in with the sheer intelligence of her every word, and then forever marks our souls with the profound messages she leaves behind.
As we return to Charlemont, Kentucky, and the endless new challenges now facing the four Bradford siblings in the aftermath of their father’s sudden passing and the many questions surrounding not only his final hours, but also the financial chaos he left behind, we are once more reminded of the utterly addictive quality of J.R. Ward’s writing and her extraordinary ability to pull us into any one of her stories with the sheer detail of her world-building talent. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough!
A spicy, highly amusing game of cat and mouse between a former Marine, now self-employed commando and cyber-security expert, and a quirky, Hello-Kitty-obsessed computer genius who outsmarts him every chance she gets, this was one of the sexiest books I’ve read this year, and I cannot express in enough words how much I enjoyed reading this book without resorting to all-caps or loads of exclamation points.
An alluring tale of revenge and deceit, set against a century-old legacy of family secrets and lies, this was such a magnificent addition to this author already remarkable repertoire, an absolute must-read for anyone seeking a true page-turner. My mind was blown away right from the start, and then the twists and turns just kept coming and coming.
