Red Dirt Heart 3
Red Dirt Heart 3 (Red Dirt #3) - N.R. Walker
Enjoyable series. This last book feels a little repetitive. Has many of the same themes as the two previous books. Not bad, just not as good as the second installment.

Double Full
Double Full - Kindle Alexander
It not you. It's me. I just don't really connect to this authors writing style. I find it to flowery, sugary sweet, repetitive, and uninventive.

A Chance to Fight
A Chance to Fight - Lila Leigh Hunter
I'm sorry...But this story just didn't work for me. The writing style felt very amateurish and the dialogue forced and over done. This just wasn't for me.

(Watch Me) Break You (Run This Town, #1)
(Watch Me) Break You (Run This Town, #1) - Avril Ashton
This book was a little out of my comfort zone. The two main characters are both high level drug/weapons/prostitution leaders of rival crime syndicates. It doesn't make them easy to like less love. The sex scenes are brutal, but hot/dirty. That said I found myself enjoying the way these two men circle, hunt, and push each others buttons. In the end you end up liking them together and it works.

The King
The King - J.R. Ward
I'm a fan of this series overall. I liked the first half dozen the best, but all are entertaining. The last few have so much going on instead of focusing on one central couple. I wished this book was just about the King/Queen (Present and past.) In many ways it feels like a daytime soap, flicking between characters. Waiting to get back to your favorite couple.

3.5 stars.

Release: Davlova: Book One (Volume 1)
Release: Davlova: Book One (Volume 1) - A.M. Sexton
This is a difficult book for me to review. This a complete departure from the author's normal writing style. Very gritty, violent, and there's not a happy ending in sight. No hearts and flowers either. Did I like it? Yes. Would I read it again. Maybe??? This book won't be for everyone.

4.5 stars. What a comfort read. Highly recommend for those days you need a little pick-me-up.
