Posted on by Letty Reads

Pretty Broken Wings by Alina May

18+ Contains Adult Content

Pretty Broken Wings follows Raven, who has moved to live in Hollows Grove after leaving her ex in the middle of the night. She is trying to lay low and not be found by her ex, but she carries around this immense anger at the world. She bumps into Axel, who also carries around a tremendous amount of anger. Axel is used to girls throwing themself at him, but not Raven and that infuriates him. So he does what any sane man would do and starts to stalk her. She retaliates by breaking his glasses, except they are not his; they belong to his twin brother, Gage. Axel and Gage are identical twins and are both classed as legally blind, especially without their glasses. Gage is a lawyer who now needs someone to be his eyes while he preps for a case. Raven broke the glasses, so it’s only fair that she does it. If Gage so happens to fall for her during this time, then well, he and Axel will have to fight it out…or will they? They could share her. I mean, why should she choose?

Raven wants to play hard to get with the fucking slut. Okay, little bird. Let’s play.

The Taskmaster by Nikki J Summers

The Taskmaster is a dark romance book that follows The Taskmaster, the player of games and Abigail Walters. Abigail is next on the Taskmaster’s list, his list for revenge, but she becomes so much more than that to him. He isn’t the only predator watching from the shadows, either. His prey has another stalker, and that just won’t do! What neither of them knows is that all their paths are more intertwined than they realise.

I kept my thoughts and words inside. They were mine. Only mine. They were the one thing no one else could get at. Like a treasure, I kept them locked away.

Posted on by Letty Reads

Stream and Scream by Melissa McSherry and Dana LeeAnn

Stream and Scream is a slasher-like book; it follows Olivia, who is one of 15 influencer contestants. They signed up for a game of survival, and promised followers, fortune and viral glory if they win. They must survive the weekend and reach the safe zone while being hunted. The catch? The show is real, the hunter is real, and the screams they hear are real. Jaxen is the hunter, a military-trained one at that, and he likes hearing the screams. When he sees Liv, he instantly becomes obsessed and possessive; she is his. He will hunt her, and enjoy it, but he won’t kill her. The producers want her dead, but nothing comes between Jaxen and what he has laid claim to.

For the prey who loves the thrill of the hunt, because we both know you only run to get fucked harder.

Goldrage: The Epic Conclusion That Made Me Cry (And Want To Punch Lady Harrow!)

Posted on by Letty Reads

Goldrage by Aveline Knight

Releases September 13th 2025

Goldrage is book 3 in the Chrysophilist series by Aveline Knight. I have been so super fortunate to ARC read each one in the series. You know a book is good if I sign up for the ARCs for the other books in the series every time they are released!

This is a trilogy, so you must start with book one, which is Goldsin, then book two, which is Goldflame and then this one. They each follow on from one another.

At the end of book 2, Julian had become just like his father. He shoots Adrian and Aurelia, leaving Aurelia with his mother while he takes Adrian away. Obviously, Lady Harrow, being the evil bitch she is, wants to torture Aurelia, who is weak from blood loss. Thankfully, she gets saved by someone I did not expect! Aurelia doesn’t know if Adrian is alive, and Adrian believes Aurelia to be dead. They need to get through to Julian that Lady Harrow is the monster here. Maybe Julian is too far gone to listen to reason? How can Aurelia get into the Harrow home without being shot on sight? By telling them she is pregnant with the next Harrow heir, but whose is it? Julians or Adrians?
