January 2022 Wrap Up 😋💥📚⛄


One month down, only 11 more to go until the end of the year. I feel like January went on forever. My workload at my job is picking up so I'm losing time for reading :( Very disappointing but I'll start traveling so my time to read will be much better in February! Thank goodness, because right now I'm 1 book behind schedule 😦 Anyway, January wasn't terrible reading wise, I got 4 new reads done. You already know how much I enjoy these authors. Let's jump right into it!

Broken Fae⭐⭐⭐⭐ 
Ruthless Boys of the Zodiac Series #4
By: Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti 

About Broken Fae:

Me and my kings have come as close to breaking as I ever could have feared.

Just as we were finding a way to get past our difficulties, the stars have torn us apart. Can I fight against the will of the heavens or does fate have something unforeseen in store for me now?

While we'e reeling from the wheel of fate and trying to find a way to move on with our lives, our enemies are only growing more powerful.

Felix Oscura is haunting Alestria with his bloodthirsy need to steal the power of the clan he was never destined to rule over. And the illusive King is growing closer to their goal of taking control of the entire city and maybe even beyond.

With challenges around every corner and the mysteries behind my brother's death slowly starting to unravel, will I be able to piece everything together and find a way to overcome the will of the stars before it’s too late?

Not okay…round of applause. It’s been a minute since I read a book that had me stopping every few pages because it made me anxious &/Or excited. This book was awesome. I adore the little pride that’s being built. Ryder is pretty close to being my fav. I love the moodiness & his friendship with Gabriel. Don’t get me wrong all 4 boys are fabulous. They’re everything you’d want in book boyfriends. I love how they all are with Elise too. Leon is still a witty guy, Dante the lover boy, & Gabriel is even opening up so much more. I’m very happy that it all worked well for them in this book UNTIL THE LAST CHAPTER. I’m now sprinting to the next book because I need answers & a certain fae helped/rescued ASAP

Warrior Fae⭐⭐⭐⭐ 
Ruthless Boys of the Zodiac Series #5
By: Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti 

About Warrior Fae:

I once thought one of my ruthless boys could be the killer I’m hunting. They’re all dark, deadly and more than capable of brutality.

But now I’m held by the King I’ve been stalking in the shadows and when I unmask him, he’ll realise he made a huge mistake in taking my brother from this world.

My Kings are coming for me, I know that in my soul. They’re on their way to rip me from my enemy’s arms and tear him apart for me.

My heart beats to the sound of their names.

But I won’t wait around to be rescued. Everything has led me to this moment and I’m ready to destroy the Fae who stole my brother from me.

Secrets will be uncovered. Destiny will be decided. Death will deliver us all in the end.

No one will escape the conclusion of this story without blood on their hands. I guess it’s a good thing I’m a Vampire then, because I just so happen to have a taste for blood.

Start with series with book one, Dark Fae.

insert content sigh--Thank you so much for not completely destroying my heart. I am a happy reader for now. And thank you for the many epilogues! I’m gonna need that RJ story sooner rather than later please!!! So many things happen in this book & im not going to spoil it but just know you will laugh and cry and rejoice and probably repeat it a few times. But never fear trust the stars & destiny will play out ;)

Ruined Castles⭐⭐⭐⭐ 
Elite Kings Club Series #8
By: Amo Jones

About Ruined Castles:

Nothing is going to make sense once you flip open this first chapter. You’re going to wonder why the fuck I made the decisions I did. Why he did what he did. I’m not going to make this easy for you. I’m going to guide you through loops that you’re going to wish I had just skipped, but I’m not going to do that either. You’re going to feel my pain, my loss, and my heart breaking in my chest. You’re going to watch me trip and fall, and get back up again. You’re going to wish you could slap the shit out of Bishop and me, but among all… I’m going to take you back to when I left the love of my life, and ran.

This is an open letter to you.

Good luck.

Mads
Xo

Madship for life--I didn’t know I needed this book until I started reading it. I was so salty we didn’t get an ending for Madship & the gang. Well, Amo delivered the perfect ending. I’m so happy I found Silver Swan all those years ago. Hard to believe it’s been 6 years of these emotional rollercoasters Amo creates. I wouldn’t trade it for anything. You get a look into all the kings. We get to see their blossoming families & a nice little ending to hold us over until we dive into the next generation of Kings. 2023 can NOT come fast enough. I don’t wanna leave this messy world

Sicko⭐⭐⭐ 
Standalone
By: Amo Jones

About Sicko:

He was my foster brother.
He swore to protect me.
He failed.
They all failed.
I’m an open box of passé photographs, snapped in chaste daylight, but filtered in sepia. I’m the past that he tried to forget, and he was the future I needed. When he left six years ago, I screamed for him every night. But then it all stopped. My screams were suddenly muffled by cruelty, and further coaxed by pain.
But he has come back. He’s not the cute big brother I had a furtive crush on, or the bad boy, rich brat that I hated to love.
He’s the ruthless vice president of Wolf Pack MC, and he doesn’t answer to Royce Kane anymore.
He answers to Sicko.

dark & twisted--I read Amos trigger warning & I was still not fully prepared for all the dark & twisted things that happen in this book. I was appalled by what some of these characters are put through. Amo definitely went down a spiral & her work was brilliant like always. I will say I did figure out who K Diamond & James were. ;) I won’t spoil it for anyone but I was proud to see it coming. I was also hesitant about the taboo side of the story but it’s just fiction & in the end I love a good HEA.
