Oooooooh I see flames of chaos!!!! Legacy of the Nine realms is an amazing dark fantasy series. My favorite. I wish I could get those special editions
You’ve picked some great books for the mafia romance readathon. I love Ruthless Stranger (by the way that cover model is an adult film actor! 😉) and Taken by a Sinner is great too! The hero in that one is intense! Can’t wait to see what you think. ❤
Ahhh I need to get to when the moon hatched
Thank you for the new tbrs!!!
Flames of chaos I loved! Definitely spicy and dark but I am now through the first 3 books and can’t wait to read the next. I got the Arcane copies and need them to do the rest of the books.
Gabriella Sands' mafia romance series The Fallen, which includes When She Unravels, is so good! I loved all those books and binged them all in a week. They are a great time. I really hope you like them! HIGHLY RECOMMEND that series!!!!
I agree that series is fantastic! I would be surprised if she doesn’t binge the entire 4 book series in one go. I read them all in less than a week too, I couldn’t put them down.
They are SO good!! When She Loves is probably my favorite but they are all fantastic! 🖤
You always have the best book selection! Thank you so so much for your videos. 😀😊📚
Ok I watched the video lol so I will say flames of chaos is INTENSE and that's the whole vibe of the series. It's dark fantasy for a reason and the enemies to lovers trope is to the extreme but there's a reason for that. There is a warning in the beginning that u will hate the MMC and it's true. I hated him on and off for several books but once u learn why he's acting like that you'll understand. Now he's still an a**hole regardless but a loveable one lol it's not for everyone. I've found that ppl either love it or hate it. I found it fun and unique. It was the first series where I experienced true enemies to lovers vibes
The Camorra chronicles is SO good. My fave are 2 (Twisted Emotions) and 3 (Twisted Pride). Ruthless Stranger is also good and the start to a 10 book mafia wars series which have some of my fave but is a huge commitment lol
Hello and thanks for sharing another wonderful video ❤😊
Now I’m really excited about TOG for next month!
Twisted Loyalty was my favorite one in that series! Look forward to hearing what you think!
I totally agree about the cover of Ruthless Stranger! As soon as you flashed it onto the screen I thought “yuk, NO”. The man on the cover is far from my idea of attractive and the fluorescent pink text is sleazy 🤢. I can’t wait to hear what you think of it 😁.
You need to check out House of Bane and Blood by Alexis Menard! It’s so good and the second book (it’s a duet) comes out this week. It’s like peaky blinders/1920’s mob vibes but with fae and all sorts of amazing vibes.
Have you read the Lady of Darkness series by Melissa K. Roehrich? I would definitely read it before starting the Legacy of Darkness series as they intertwine
Jess Rain of Shadows and Endings is everand She’s the same person who wrote Lady of Darkness
What about Heat of the Everflame? It comes out on audiobook on May 14th. I can’t wait.
Omg I thought it came out in June!!!
I really want to hear your thoughts on A Feather So Black.
As a mature Romantasy reader of 30 + years, I am now 53 ,I get so fed up all the spice!!! I get it that we 'do it', but sometimes I feel as if I am reading erotica!!!!!!!
Are you still down for My Best Friend’s Exorcism? I haven’t filmed my TBR yet so either way I’m good.
Yes!!! Sorry, I have it on my TBR spreadsheet but forgot to mention it in the video!
@@HonestFiction It’s okay no worries!
Hey!! I plan on starting My Best Friends Exorcism at the end of the month, after I finished the mafia romance readathon and When the Moon Hatched! Does that work for you? 💕
@@HonestFiction I actually already read My Best Friend’s Exorcism lol. I’ll wait until you finish it then we can talk about it!
Ruthless stranger is really good it’s funny how covers can turn ppl off. I guess bc i don’t generally find men attractive every cover with a man looks the same to me lol so that never crossed my mind on why ppl wouldn’t read a book. I love the flames of chaos series i actually love all that authors works. I’m very curious to see how you feel about it now.
Rain of Shadows and Endings I’ve heard is a spin off of her other series, is that right? Or can you start with this book/series if you wanted to?
I think it’s just set in the same world so you can read Rain of Shadows and Endings without reading Lady of Darkness 🖤
Shout out to anyone who had difficulty with something but didn’t let it stop them from finding joy in it. The real MVPs. 🫡
