Savage Rivals Review 

Asher and Levi were captains for the football team of rival high schools. Not only were they enemies on the football field but off as well. An elite school against a regular high school. A rich guy against one not so much. Their hatred simmered and boiled over to the point of no return. One banter led to another which broke out into fights. Love came thereafter. A Halloween prank gone wrong and both men were thrust into a different sensation. 

I, for one, thought Becca Steele was a genius to write this masterpiece. I enjoyed every second of it. Devoured it in one night.  It had been a while since I enjoyed a story so much. First of all, the football she used was the real football I grew up knowing was actual football. The one where if you touch the ball with your hand, it’s a penalty. I adored that she used this football. I could definitely relate. This book was the essence of the enemies-to-lovers trope. They hated each other until they didn’t. 

A lot of writers could learn a thing or two from this book. Asher and Levi’s banter was off the charts. I couldn’t help but smile through it all. When the romance came into play, I thanked the lucky stars Goodreads recommended this book to me. Their romance was actual romance. It wasn’t all lust but spending quality time with each other, going on hide-out dates even before they called it dates. It was amazing and refreshing that at least one author out there knows what romance is. It’s not death. Most people just keep it to themselves. 

The smut scenes were phenomenal. I got everything I didn’t know I wanted going into this read. I would recommend it to any fan of the enemies-to-lovers trope. I could give a list of reasons why this book would make your day, but I would probably go on a rant and share too many spoilers. So, I’m going to leave it like this.

Sucked Review

  Book Source: Kindle Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Erotica Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶🌶🌶/5 Sucked by AR Taboo Review ‘She can’t keep it out of her mouth’.  I went into this one with an entire baggage of curiosity. I noticed a friend read and gave a review. Two sentences got me wanting to find out what it meant. There was nothing there for the book bio/synopsis which enhanced my urge to know what the hype was about. Knowing me, I got a little too curious, and rushed to read it. I gobbled up this thing without batting an eye. No one would think I was reading anything smut worthy much less as taboo as this. Like what the heck?  I’ve become so desensitized to these things that nothing affects me these days. No triggers. Not even this Novella. At this point, I could wave down the train to hell and buckle myself in. This was just…I’m lost for words.  Father reunited with daughter after years of not seeing each other. That was just ...

Step Bully Review

  Book Source: Kindle Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: MM Romance / Standalone Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 Step Bully by Willow Dixon Review  When I learned Julian was called Jules, I immediately thought of Jules from Euphoria. Despite the book's description of Jules’s character, I couldn’t stop picturing him as Euphoria Jules. Which was funny because they were nothing alike. Jules and Ash were stepbrothers, who hated each other because of the situation they were forced into. By God, I hated their parents. Even to the end. I was like ‘flip them the middle finger and move the heck on’ but to my dismay, they didn’t. Which kind of pissed me off. Gosh, I am a monster. Anywhos, the boys were thrust into sharing an apartment for their senior year of college. This was where the lines got blurred. I loved the bantering. It was amazing to read. Then other things came in and I was not liking them. At parts where I should have shown sympathy...

Gloden Review

  Book Source: BookSiren Cross Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Erotic Novella  Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 Golden by S.B Hazel Review  Curiosity led me to read this novella. Though the description said taboo, the words ‘watersports play’ in the synopsis/bio caught my attention. I had no idea what it was. Thus, I read this accepted this Arc and read it to feed my inquisitiveness. Boy, did I find out. I was like ‘wow, oh, so that’s what it is.’ Where I’m from watersports play is called ‘golden shower’. I was more than satisfied to find that out. I patted myself on the back after reading Golden. I didn’t even bat an eye and read it without a flinch. That called for success. With that said, it was not my cup of tea. All the sports play talk. Everything else was interesting. Even though it was short.  Sammy worked at an erotic club, catering to clients of various kinks. One night, she filled in for another worker and met two gorgeous...
