Midnight Random Thoughts

  #1 REIGN OF A KING "I’m trapped by his sheer presence and held prisoner by the darkened depths of his grey eyes. It’s like being caught in the eye of a hurricane and all I can do is fall." BLURB Nothing is fair in war. Jonathan King is every bit his last name. Powerful. Untouchable. Corrupted. He’s also my dead sister’s husband and way older than me. When I first met him as a clueless child, I thought he was a god. Now, I have to confront that god to protect my business from his ruthless grip. Little did I know that declaring a war on the king will cost me everything. When Jonathan covets something, he doesn’t only win, he conquers. Now, he has his sights on me. He wants to consume not only my body, but also my heart and my soul. I fight, but there’s no escaping the king in his kingdom...               I'm gonna be completely honest here and say that I have never liked Jonathan. EVER. I thought this book will change my mind since we'll get ...

#1 ALL THE LIES “You’re mine to screw and destroy, my ugly monster. It’s time to get used to that.” BLURB When lies become the truth. My name is Reina Ellis. Popular. Beautiful. Untouchable. Problem is, I remember none of it. His name is Asher Carson. Gorgeous. Silent. Dark. Oh, and my future husband. He has three rules for me: I'll bow.  I'll break.  I'll pay for what I’ve done. Problem is, I don’t remember what I’ve done, but I have a clue. There was a fire. A dead girl. And I was there.               After reading this duet, I can certainly say that Rina Kent is now one of my go-to authors. I read her Royal Elite series and I loved it so much and after knowing that almost all her books happened in one "universe", I have to read every one of her works. I have yet to read her other series but I'm getting there. I've also read her Kingdom duet which is a book about Jonathan King, Aiden's father and I did not enjoy it as much as Rina's ot...

                         This book is literally about the lives of the five couples and how it went after the end of their own books. Basically about their proposals, wedding, pregnancy and life with their kids. This book is just so adorable and an explosion of cuteness!! So many  kids I can't keep up 😆😆!! And can we also talk about the fact that the they are literally shipping their kids with the other's babies? HAHA. This book is such a good vibe my heart was swelling with every couples' stories. This is like the bonus part we never asked! I also just found out that Rina is planning to make a book about the kids and I am so in for it!! I am so excited I can't wait to read them!!

“If you’re a mistake, I’ll still make it every fucking time. ” BLURB He’s no fairy tale king. Levi Here, little princess. I'm your king. You have three rules. Bow. Break. Bend the knee. Fight me all you want, but soon enough, you'll be chanting long live the king. Astrid One day I'm Royal Elite School's small fly, the next I'm hunted and left to die. He doesn't only shred my life to parts, but he's also coming after my heart. He thinks he broke me, but the new princess will bring the king to his knees.          I can't believe I read this last when everything literally starts here. LOL. But then again I'm not the kind who usually reads the novellas or those books prior to the actual book especially if it's short. I just think that it's nonsense but here I am. This book is not even a novella but an actual book, I'm just glad that every book here, except books 1-3 are standalone so I was not really lost when I read this and no spoilers were...

  "Because I love you, Cole. I've been in love with you since you found me in the park that day and pulled my hair and told me you wanted my firsts. I've loved you more through the years, and I hated every time I had to face the reality that I couldn't be with you." BLURB There’s a girl. Beautiful. Popular. Fake. And my obsession. My fall. Probably my damnation. Did that stop me? Do I care? No and no. There’s a line between right and wrong. Moral and immoral. And then there’s her. I cross every limit with blood-coated fingers. She says she hates me. I say I hate her too as I trap her, own her. Make her all mine.          I can't stress enough how I loved this one!! I mean I did not really expect a lot from Cole except that he is the captain of the football team and a nerd who reads nonstop (we can be besties Cole just saying) and the most quiet of the four horsemen. But damn!! I did not expect him to be an asshole just like Aiden. I mean he shows it nonchal...

  “You don't have to hide your crazy from me, ma belle. Show it, and I promise to feast on it”  BLURB He’s prince charming. Just not hers.   I have a secret. I stole a heart, or rather a marriage contract. It wasn’t mine to own, to look at or to even consider. But it was there for the taking so I took it. Huge mistake. Ronan Astor is a nobility in this world. Arrogant player. Heartless bastard. Vicious prince. Now, he’s out to destroy me.  What he doesn’t know is that I’m out to destroy him too. My name is Teal Van Doren, and I’m where princes go to die.         Okaaayyyy... I have to be real honest here. I did not liked this, sadly. I mean I said I was excited to read Ronan's book because he's my fave from the four horsemen next to Aiden of course but this is not it! Ugh! I expected a lot from this and I really did try to get myself into the story buuutttt... I did not enjoy it. HUHUHU. I even skipped some parts because I just can't feel the...

“The universe doesn't matter, green, you do. Then. Now. Always.”   BLURB Love is impossible. Hate is an open game.   Kimberly   He was once my best friend, now he’s my worst enemy. Xander Knight is heartbreakingly beautiful. Ridiculously popular. Brutally cruel. He’s a knight but won’t do any saving. Xander   We started as a dream, now we’re a nightmare. Kimberly Reed is pathetically fake. Terribly innocent. Secretly black. She can hide but never from me.         Books that talk about mental illness always makes me a crying mess so it's no news that this book made me cry ugly. Some readers might find this book triggering because of the metal illness issue that this represents. As someone who struggles with weight loss, I relate to Kimberly because of how the people that surround her mock her. I do't really care about what people may think about my physical appearance but when some crude comments get to me, I can't help think that I'm not wort...

#1 DEVIANT KING “Be mine and you become the queen on my board.” He pauses and flicks his tongue to lick my lower lip. “Fight and you’ll remain a pawn.” BLURB The villain isn't supposed to be king  I have a simple plan. Finish Royal Elite School and get into my dream university. One glance from the school’s king blows my plan up in smoke. One glance and he suffocates my air. One glance and he issues his death sentence. His first words spiral my life into irreparable chaos. “I will destroy you.” Everything about Aiden King is black. Black mind. Black heart. Black soul. I should’ve remained quiet and endured the time I have left. I didn’t. I made the irrevocable mistake of provoking the king on his throne. The devil in his hell. And now, I’ll pay the price. Being hated by Aiden King is dangerous.  But being wanted by him is lethal.          This is not my first time reading a book about a bully hero but this is my first time encountering a bully hero that...

  “I liked learning things. How numbers worked together to explain the stars. How molecules made the world. All the ugly and wonderful things people had done in the last two thousand years.” SYNOPSIS As the daughter of a meth dealer, Wavy knows not to trust people, not even her own parents. Struggling to raise her little brother, eight-year-old Wavy is the only responsible "adult" around. She finds peace in the starry Midwestern night sky above the fields behind her house. One night everything changes when she witnesses one of her father's thugs, Kellen, a tattooed ex-con with a heart of gold, wreck his motorcycle. What follows is a powerful and shocking love story between two unlikely people that asks tough questions, reminding us of all the ugly and wonderful things that life has to offer.          I was left speechless after reading this book. I really don't know what to say. I have mixed opinion about this book and a mixed feelings with the characters. ...

  “Home is where you are. I would go anywhere for you if you wanted me there.”                This is the first time for me to read a book about sports romance so I honestly don't know what to expect but surprisingly, I love this book. No wonder a lot of people are talking about this and the praises it got really made me curious to continue reading it because I was so close to DNF-ing it. SYNOPSIS Vanessa Mazur knows she's doing the right thing. She shouldn't feel bad for quitting. Being an assistant/housekeeper/fairy godmother to the top defensive end in the National Football Organization was always supposed to be temporary. She has plans and none of them include washing extra-large underwear longer than necessary. But when Aiden Graves shows up at her door wanting her to come back, she's beyond shocked. For two years, the man known as The Wall of Winnipeg couldn't find it in him to tell her good morning or congratulate her on her birthday. ...

              "Love you, baby girl. You told me you don't need the words, but you deserve to hear them. I don't want you to ever be unsure of what I feel for you. I need you to know deep down to your bones that you're the most important thing in my world. I need you to know I could never love anything or anyone the way I love you."     I have to say it makes me super happy whenever I pick a book and never regretted a second reading it. This book has been-as usual- been on my TBR list since last year but I only got to pick it yesterday and I loved reading every page of it. I was so giddy while reading it I don't want it to end. SYNOPSIS Vienna Stratton knew she only had herself to blame. You didn’t let yourself become indebted to a man like Dane Davenport, no matter how badly you needed his help. As his personal assistant, she was very aware that the globally successful CEO was ruthless and unforgiving.  Of course, if she’d know...

“He was just another casualty of my mistakes and the end result of my sins. I was the villain in this messy fairy tale.”  This is the first book of Lylah James that I read so far and I'm glad that this did not disappoint. I have mixed feelings about the characters of this book though. SYNOPSIS “Once upon a time…” Hate consumed him. Love wrecked me. That night changed both our lives, turning our beginning into something toxic. We were poison together and there was no antidote. Our story began like any other fairy tale ended. With a beautiful wedding. One kiss. Two rings. Three vows. Killian Spencer became my lawfully wedded husband and I, his dutiful wife. But he was no Prince Charming. He didn’t come to save me… and he vowed there would be no happily ever after. And me? Just like the legends I'd read as a little girl, I always thought I’d be the princess in my fairy tale. Well, I was the villain of our love story. “Till death do us part…”      As what I said, I had a...
