Dirty Love by Bethany Winters Review


While reading this, I struggled between annoyed and contented. I was more annoyed than contented. At one point, I was screaming, ‘Jesus, just do the damn thing already. It’s either you’re going to indulge and stop giving me a headache or you’re not and let the boy live a little’. But thankfully, things worked out. After being stepbrothers for years---yes, they grew up together---they discovered growing feelings no sibling should have. To make matters worse, they lived in a town filled with people with sticks up their bums and an abusive father. Things could not get any better. But it did. And I kind of enjoyed it until I didn’t. 

The boys had to juggle their feelings for each other while maintaining neutrality, so the town folks or their father wouldn't suspect anything. A lot of hard work since it seemed Kade was popular. Poor Nicky was one horny teen to even try to be discreet. I felt sorrier for Kade than I should have. I didn't understand how he could handle a brother like Nicky but he did and loved it.

To be honest, I liked Jasper more than the two main characters. In some part, I thought they were trying too hard. The interaction felt forced. It wasn’t smooth or inviting. Even Jasper got annoying after a certain point. Either way, I pushed through, and everything was okay. It wasn’t anything to make me fall in love with the story or the characters nor was it bad to warrant a one star. It was good. I liked how close the brothers were to each other and how protective Kade was to Nicky. He knew his brother needed help and he strived to get him that. Never once did he stray from the goal. 

I was a bit shocked and irritated by Jasper’s ending, but somebody had to be the antagonist. I just wished the plot had gone in another direction. He would have made the perfect, annoying best friend. I almost envisioned him with the college guy (Almost a spoiler here). It would have been way better that way. But we reap what we sow, so even though I wasn’t satisfied, I understood the underlying message. 

So, go ahead. Grab a copy and read it for yourself. You might just disagree with me.

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...
