Ecstasy Unbound by Setta Jay

Stars: ★★★★★

Amazon

Goodreads 

General info

Gods, goddesses and their offspring. Other immortal and supernatural beings. A love story with a great heroine and hot male warriors. They fight the never ending war between good and evil. Add in soulmates and everything turns more interesting. 

Things I liked

I really like this book. The plot is interesting, and it never gets boring. I like how romance and the relationship between Alex and Uri is on the frontline even though they are constantly fighting against evil. I also like that this is not a typical supernatural story with vampires and werewolves. This has gods, and Demi-gods who happen to have some animal sides to them. It's refreshing at least to me. 
I have always found the whole mate thing to be nice and romantic and I really like the way it is presented here. Just makes me wish us humans had the one forever mate too. 

Conclusion

There was nothing negative that comes to mind now. All in all, this book is great and I can't wait to keep reading more in the series. I wish all the guardians have as interesting stories as this one is.

General info

The third instalment in the Last Chance series. Lanie and Roman are finally back together, but a sadistic man is after Lanie and wants revenge on Roman. They manage to somehow stay together, but nothing is as good as it seems.

Things I liked 

This is the best book in the series so far. I enjoyed it and it is easy to follow and it keeps you hooked until the end. The characters are interesting and I feel they have evolved a lot from the beginning of the series. I think there is a good amount of suspense and romance in this book, and somehow it flows better than the first two books. 

Things I did not like

The ending for sure. Once again, a book in the series ends in a serious cliffhanger and this totally leaves the reader horrified. Other than that, I feel that this book has a lot more positive sides than the two books before it. 

Conclusion

All in all, this is a good and interesting book. It's really quick to read and the suspense and romance are in balance. There's no chance to feel bored when reading this book. So far, this is the best book in the series hands down.

General info 

This continues from where the first book, Bought, ended. Lanie gets taken back by her previous master and sold to another in a matter of hours. Roman searches for her and makes a deal with her other master to train her together. 

Things I liked 

Well, it continues the story of Bought so it was nice to be able to get some closure. It’s an interesting story even if moves on really fast all the time. 

Things I did not like 

Once again this has great potential but it doesn’t follow through. I like the story but it’s too fast temped and a lot happens in short time. In a way, I like this better than I liked the first book but once again it ends in a cliffhanger and I have to read the next book in the series to really find out how the story ends. 

Conclusion

A good but with great potential but it doesn’t completely follow through. Interesting story line, good characters and a cliffhanger ending.

How to Seduce a Billionaire by Portia Da Costa

Stars: ★★★★★

Goodreads

Buy from Amazon

General info 

Jess and Ellis meet accidentally in the pouring rain. This starts a fling they both think will only last a few moments. They face their ups and downs whilst also trying to fight falling in love. 

Things I liked 

I absolutely love the idea of the story. I just wish my Dream Lover would show up and whisk me away. The story never gets boring and I was hooked until the end. I certainly hoped that Jess and Ellis would get their happy ending. They really deserve it.
I also love the characters. Jess is a 29-year old virgin, which on its own is unusual. She is a woman who has put everything on hold to take care of her nan and now that she is gone, is still trying to find her way back to her life. 
Ellis has lost everything important to him. He’s a kind man, he’s not too domineering or forceful. He’s a lovely man altogether but he cannot get over his dead family. Let’s just say he is very different from the typical billionaire characters and I really liked that. 

Conclusion

As a whole, I really truly love this book. It is a beautiful story with a happy ending and I’m so happy that I found this book and got to enjoy it. The story is beautiful and I recommend it from the bottom of my heart.

General info

Meet Nell, a successful lawyer and a woman who has planned her life to the her dying day. A successful law career, the perfect man and 2.5 kids, that's what she wants.
Meet Vincent, a politician and a dominant.
When these two make a deal and decide to enter into a six month long BDSM relationship, Nell's plan takes a detour. And things do not go as she has planned.

What I liked 

I have to say, there wasn't much I didn't like about this book. It is a lovely piece of literature and the writing style is great. The plot is interesting and keeps the reader hooked until the end. I'm a sucker for some erotica and romance and this book definitely has both of them in it.
Also, both Nell and Vincent are great and interesting characters and I really truly love their relationship.

Things I did not like

Like I said, I love this book and there isn't a lot of bad things to say about it. The only thing for me is that I think it could have gone on for a little bit longer. It would have been great to be able to read how their relationship grows after the books ending.

Concluding words

All in all, this book is just lovely and I recommend it from the bottom of my heart. I'm not an expert on BDSM or any relationships but I enjoyed Vincent and Nell's relationship and would have loved to read more about them.

Escort by Skye Warren

This book is a lovely romance. It is a bit predictable but I didn't mind it and there is still some excitement.
The plot is very easy to follow and I quite liked it. It's not everyday that you get to read about a mail escort. Who falls in love with a client. Usually it's the other way around.
The characters were interesting too and I really liked the relationship between Hugo and Bea.
All in all, the book was very quick and easy to read. The ending was a bit predictable but it fit well with the book and it would have been a bit stupid if the book had ended in any other way.

Billionaire's Princess by Claire Adams

I'm a huge fan of the author and of this Billionaire series. This book was great as well and it was a bit different from yout usual billionaire novels. 
The main characters, Ariana, a runaway princess, and Nicholas, a billionaire who's tired of being a billionaire, are not the typical characters in these types of novels. I found this to be really refreshing. The characters also really fit well together, as they are, in some ways, very similar to each other but still different. Also, as I said, the characters are really interesting as individuals. There's Ariana, who is running away from her castle and away from a fiancee who is years and years older than her. And then, there is Nicholas, who is tired of being a billionaire, who just wants to live a normal, quite life. And together, they have passion.
The plot of the book is interesting as well and it doesn't get boring. There is always something happening, whether it is the characters being together or the other being kidnapped. Also, the plot isn't straightforward, straight to the happy ending kind of thing. The characters face a lot of hardship, until they get their happy ending and for me, that is important. There wasn't really a chance for me to loose interest. 
In conclusion, this book is great, I still really love Claire Adams' work and I can't wait to read more of her novels.

Bought by the billionaire brothers (The bundle) by Alexx Andria

First off, I bought this book after I had read the sample book and the first two chapters sounded interesting. 
There's basically four main characters, three of them at first and three of the four are brothers as well. At first all the characters sounded quite interesting and even though Penny was a bit naive, I like her. However, a bit further into the book, the brothers turned out to be quite mean and very simple in the way they treated Penny. Then there's the third brother who, at first seems to be villain of the book, but turns out to be the good guy. In a way all the characters could have been a bit more developed.
Moving on to the plot of the book. Like I have already mentioned, I read the first two chapters before purchasing this book and the those chapters really arose my interest in the book. It sounded like a good book. Then, further in the book, it changed for the worse and the plot was alright but it didn't quite fill my expectations. The drama was just a bit unfitting in a way. And even though I enjoyed most of the book, there is still some bits that I absolutely despised. 
The book ends in a way that I was not quite expecting but it was a good ending still and it was worth to read. 

Unleashed by Kathryn Taylor

This book is the ending to Jonathan Huntington and Grace Lawson's story. However, it is not a full-lenght novel like I was hoping for, and it is basically only the missing epilogue from the second book in the trilogy. I did however, enjoy reading this a lot. It was so great to know how things went and that they indeed got the happy ending they deserved. I could have read more about them, and I would have happily read a full-lenght novel but I take what I can get. All in all, this book was great but because I hoped for a longer story this one fill get four stars.

Uncovered by Kathryn Taylor

 This book is the second novel in the Colours of Love series. In it, the story of Jonathan Huntington and Grace Lawson continues.
I personally feel that this was a bit better than the first book because it is not about just sex anymore but rather the relationship between Jonathan and Grace continues to grow and there are real feelings involved here. Of course, as in any story, things can't just be diamonds and roses and they do face a number of obstacles but it does make the story what it is and it makes it feel more real. Another thing that makes this book better than the first novel is the amount of feelings that it made me feel as a reader. It made me feel sad and happy and excited and nervous and to me that is what makes a book good. And the cherry on top, was the ending that just made me super-duper happy!

Unbound by Kathryn Taylor

This book is the first installment in the colors of love series. It tells the story of Grace Lawson and Jonathan Huntington, a wealthy business owner. In a way, it’s a bit similar to the Fifty Shades of Grey series but still so much different.
The characters are complex and for example, Jonathan is still a huge mystery even at the end of the book and it leaves the reader wondering about a lot of things, both about the character and about the story itself and the future of the main characters’ relationship.
Additionally, I really enjoyed the physical chemistry and attraction Grace and Jonathan have for each other. It makes the book so much more enjoyable and easier to read.
As a huge fan of the fifty shades of grey series, I fell in love with the colors of love as well. I couldn’t put the book down before the very and even then I had to start reading the next book in the series straight away, the ending was that good and I had to keep on reading about their love story. All in all, this book was perfect and I can’t wait to read the rest of the books in the series.
