I absolutely loved this book. I especially enjoyed the way it was written, being made to love characters only to have them taken away. I want to read things that make me feel real emotions. And Wool did the trick. Not only was I on the edge of my seat in suspense but also did I yell in anger at the pages and secretly cry to myself in sadness and joy. Hugh Howey is an inspiration to an aspiring author. Despite one's reading preferences, Wool is a top choice for every reader, fan and browser alike.

Prince Henrys life has been upended.  The former spare heir is now the Crown Prince of Wessco and doesnt have a clue what to do with that which is fast leading him towards the mother of all breakdowns.
By Nicholas suggestion and in order to help him settle in his new role as future king, Queen Lenora sends him away, but when Henry starts feeling a bit abandoned, he decides reviving his party playboy persona is the way to go and what better way to start a party than enrolling himself for a dating reality TV show, right?
Lady Sarah Von Titebottum is a bespectacled, shy, librarian who is not interested in being part of the show, but when her mother conditions the participation of her sister Penelope, she agrees to go as the younger sisters assistant as long as she can remain away from the cameras.
Once the cameras start rolling, Henry will discover reality TV is not so real and that everything he needs is the company of the one person who really gets him, the one hiding in the room with the reading nook.
I have to start by saying that Henry completely stole my heart.  The wild prince is not only handsome and sexy, but he is kind, sweet, talented and romantic and, when he finally finds his way, he assumes his responsibilities as a man should: head on.

Henry has never been one to rise to the occasion, she states plainly.  Hes never needed to, my brother insists.  Hes never been asked  not once in his whole life.  Until now.  And he will not only rise to the occasionhe will soar beyond it.

Sarah on the other hand, is a dreamer, but as shy and fragile as she seems, shes strong inside and has a great sense of humor.
As a couple Henry and Sarah are beyond perfect.  They complement each other in the most amazing ways.  While he shows her how to let go and free herself of her inhibitions, she grounds him and allows him to become the protector he must learn to be.

Rock bottom changes you.  Glimpsing heaven changes you more.  Ive touched perfection, Ive felt its arms around me and though shes slipped away, shes out there, just beyond my reach.  Waiting for me to get off my arse and get my shit together.  To prove myself.  To become the manand the kingshe deserves.

This book is full of laugh out loud moments, but there are many gripping moments as well.  Henry and Sarah are both somehow broken, but they make each other strong and find a love that will conquer any obstacle in the end.
Needless to say, I loved this book from beginning to end.  The characters, the plot, and the way its writtenthe fairy tale of the little broken prince who is destined to become king.

"There are meetings in books that stand out, that alter the course of the story.  Profound encounters between characters when one soul seems to say to the other, There you are  Ive been looking for you."

To think, I almost didn't read this. I'm so glad I did. THE ROYAL WE was everything I could ever want out of my average American girl meets British Crowned Prince romance. It gave me ALL THE FREAKING FEELS. Seriously, I laughed. I cried like 4 times. And I literally gasped and sat up in bed in shock at one point. I loved how I didn't know how the story would end. I loved all the quirky characters. I loved how very very real Bex, Nick, Lacy, and Freddie felt to me in the end. These are definitely the questions I have about people who date and marry into royalty. How did that happen? Was it amazing? Was it terrible? How can you ever be yourself? Does the paparazzi ever get to you? Is love worth all the sacrifice of having to be with them? Or are you lying about being in love and being manipulated by the royal family? See? It's interesting. And this book DELIVERS. I loved it so much. Seriously, read this.

OK so let me start off with this...I don't usually read MC books I do however like them. I am perplexed with my feelings about this book. Why? because I know in my head I am all like a woman kidnapped?? That's not right..wth!! But then something inside me is really loving Cam. I know I can hear all the critics...whatever tomato ~ tomaaaatoe. I liked it no; I loved it! If you are into stories that grab you and hold your attention, make you feel deeply, make you think outside your own box than hey ..this is for you. I mean I know what most people will say about this...and its ok its their opinion. This is MY opinion. LOVED!

Debra Kayn I am now a fan and I can not wait to read more..I don't want to spoil anything in this book for anyone, all I will say is ...Love. What determines love or how you fall in love? If you fall in love by looking at someone, by talking with them, by writing letters, or maybe even being held against your will. There are no laws on love, there are no rules about it. The only rules or laws are the ones that are self imposed or even publicly imposed. Some people think its wrong to fall for someone who has mistreated you to an extent, hey ...I get that I do, but and here is my BUT, sometimes, there are those moments in a relationship where LOVE comes in forms that are not the conventional way. Two people held prisoner by individual circumstances. Will they ever be free? Will their time come to enjoy their freedom? What will that freedom mean to Christina? Does it include Cam? Cam will he remain free? Can he continue to protect Christina? I loved that this is a story that has grit! YES grit..no fluffy stuff going on here, I love that this grabbed me and took me on this journey with Cam and Christina.

Favorite Quotes:

With a love this basic, this solid, this simplistically true, the pace doesnt need to be slow or romantic to prove the depth behind the connection.

I cant imagine living life any stronger than loving Sofia, than being loved by her.

My Review:
The plot of Mason starts near the end of the story of Ledger, and was an active adventure romance chocked full of corrupt government officials, dirty cops, personal assault, rape, property damage, harassment, espionage, and murder.  Mason is not a sweet and tender man like Ledger, although he is highly skilled, of genius intelligence, and loves his woman just as fiercely.  Lucky for him, he finds a fierce woman to love (Sophia), who tells him not to use endearments such as calling her baby, or to dare tell her she is special.  One of my favorite lines in the book, which Mason uses to tease Sophie with is, Baby, you are so special.  Mason and Sophias love story is my favorite type, they are not fighting each other, but pulling together and finding each other in the process.  The conflict in the story is not with each other but in righting a wrong, and I totally admire that trope.  The writing and story-line are intriguing, well plotted, and smart.  Callen is up next, and I am ready for the challenge.

This is the first review I have ever written for a book and Im so excited.  Ivy Smoak has a wonderful way with words and loved the pov of both characters she written in.  She held me captivated from the first chapter.  I fell in love with Bee and Mason from the beginning, and with their funny satire towards one another was wonderful to read.  Mason was all alpha male and Bee was a woman with a broken heart from her ex-fianc and was scared to give her heart to another man.  Her friends all wanted her to live her life again and have fun so one of her friends set her up on a blind date and she agreed.  From there it started with problems, working late, boss hitting on her and some man stole her cab and she had to take the subway to the restaurant.  From there thing begin to unravel the man that stole her cab was her blind date, she done hot things with him that she would or never have done before all was good for her until she recognized his full name and she was already falling for him and from there the book only gets better and better.  Throughout the book not only does Bee change so does the Alpha hot Mason, these two people are wonderful together and the scene are going to heat up your kindle with a wonderful HEA ending. This book is a must read and it makes you want to go read the Hunted Series to find out more about professor Hunter and Penny story.

Its no surprise that I absolutely loved Upside Down when I read it. Lia Riley wrote a book about two deeply flawed people who found each other on the bottom of the world and they finally let themselves love. It was magical. I loved Bran and Talia like they were my own children in a way. I wanted to love on them, soothe their hearts, and even strangle them at times. They had their drama but in the end, their relationship was something that I adored and it just felt easy for them to be themselves and to let their hearts be open to each other.

Then along came Sideswiped. I was so excited for the continuation of their story. Lia and I have talked about the book, in the vaguest sense as to not spoil me, so I kind of knew what to expect. But my feels I felt everything, the whole spectrum. There were times I laughed, times when I wanted to throw my iPad or phone, and times I was so upset I almost cried. Im not an emotional reader. Im just not. But I wanted to cry. Im really surprised I did.

Sideswiped opens up a few months after the ending of Upside Down. Talia is on her way back to Bran from Santa Cruz but they know their time is limited because of a student visa. Knowing this, you would think the two would want to spend at much time together, cherishing each moment. But they dont. They focus so much on the end that they really don't see each other. They start having little fights because Talia wants to talk but Bran wants to sweep everything under a rug. He wants to put it off, to just, not have to think about it. But in the end, it all comes back to bite them both, and hard.

Sideswiped isn't exactly an easy read. The first half is kind of slow, but I think thats because I personally found it hard to reconnect with the characters. I had this idea of them in my head and they were not fitting it. Im not saying thats Lias fault, don't get me wrong. I think I have such a romantic notion of Talia and Bran in my head that with their evolving relationship it just didn't mesh well. But as the book continues I found myself seeing the Talia and Bran I know and love. They were playful, loving, and just two people who I remember falling in love with.

Sideswiped left me feeling hopeful. I know this book was more for Bran, and Talia to an extent, to grow. I know with Inside Out they will get their Happily Ever After. I just know its going to be hard-won. I don't think Sideswiped is as strong as the first book, but its definitely a good bridge for the third.

SighI cant say how much I love this story. I loved Fredas POV in Painted Faces and I pretty much think I have fallen completely head over heels in love with Nicholas POV in Killer Queen. I was so ecstatic when I saw that this book was coming out. The story of Nicholas and Freda is so unique, flirty, romantic, sexy as all hell, hilarious, witty, heart-breaking, brutally honest and just downright beautiful. Its an amazing love story told about two very different, lively and extraordinary people. Nicholas/Vivica is an unforgettable character who will etch himself into your memory forever. He is lovable and downright hot. His thoughts, banter and unfiltered words throughout this book will leave you breathless, laughing hysterically, and in a big puddle of mushy gushy love. I thoroughly enjoyed getting his POV and seeing how Freda weaved her way into his heart and how his love for her utterly consumed him. We got to see the raw and uncut side of Viv and it dramatic and gut-wrenching. We watched how his life transformed with the presence and love of Freda.

I don't know how Cosway came up with this story but Im glad she did. It is so different and amazing. I never thought a straight guy in Drag could be so damn sexy, that pushing of the boundaries is just so alluring that you cant help but fall madly in love and totally wanton for him. He makes me hot just thinking about it, LOL. If you haven't read Painted Faces then you need too, Fredas perspective is indeed different from NicViv but the love shines through the same. It was so much fun to relive some of those heartfelt moments from Painted Faces through NicVivs eyes. This and Painted Faces is a must read for anyone who is looking to spice up their romance reads with a little flare and sauciness. You won't be disappointed in picking up this book and in the words of Nic/Viv, he will find a way to make you tug uncomfortably at your collars but you will love every minute of it you nosy little devils!

Now this is a gangsters love.. For the love of family, money, loyalty, and royalty. All kingdoms must have a King and Queen and this book gives you a firsthand look at the love story of Chink and Juicy and how they came to rule their empire. All the twist and turns makes nothing predictable. And that's why I give it 5 stars..

***This book was AH-AMAZING!!!  Not only did we get to see into Preppy and Dres life, but you feel like youve become a part of it too. I loved this story with a twist I really did not see coming..who knew?? Anyways..my review is based mostly on the SERIES not just the final book. Thank you T.M. Frazier!! #fanforlife

 From the very first book to the last, this series keeps you enthralled in this amazing story line. TM Frazier has this remarkable ability to make you feel like you are right there with her characters, watching everything unfold before your eyes. From the well developed characters to the coyote and pig to Mirna's house to a simple driveway, all felt amazingly real to me. Not only was I standing in the driveway during a major party, but I was there when some crazy a** stuff went down. I LOVED every minute of EVERY book in this series.

With all the drama this crew faced, they remained loyal, they remained a family and most of all they show us what true friendship is and how deep the love for another can be. I was never NEVER disappointed in anyone of these books, from book to book I was held captive. From laughing out loud to crying, to ...well.......wanting to jump the hubs right after certain chapters.....all the "feels" are there and more.  Please give this series a chance I promise you, you will LOVE it!

If you are looking for a series that will take you away into a story that has so many twists and turns, love, passion, lust and sex. Friendships, death, life and family..(has it all) then I HIGHLY recommend The Kings Series.my ALL time favorite series yet!!!

I am going to miss these men and women, but thank god that whenever I want to visit,  all I have to do is open the book and their lives come to life, taking my breath away with every chapter. TM Frazier you have bewitched me heart and soul with the story of King, Bear and Preppy. Thank you, thank you for writing an amazing series for giving me that extra something special to look forward to that was perfect for me when I needed an escape.

I love this!!! I can't get enough reading it , I recently read Rome, I love it too. but I love Rule , a real bad ass!!  and I love tattoos too!!! I love the angle of the story between Rule and Shaw , the unspoken words of love and insecurities between all the characters in the story. I love also that the author tackle the issue of judgment people's way of behavior that should conform to the society's rules. the fear of homophobia and the society reaction to it.  the author also want to convey that society should not judge a person's appearance and way of life as the indicator of his moral character and integrity.

Love, love this series.....just flove it so much. And the covers are so gorgeous....I want to be an Alexa Riley princess too *stomps foot* damn it. Ok, enough about me, let me chat at you about this series.

His Princess
These 2 and this book....absolutely adorable with all of the Alexa Riley charm and humor. Absolutely loved it. Roman is a King who had seen Alena and chosen her to be his bride/future queen. Alena is very hesitant because she doesn't know him and she doesn't want to leave her sister, Tabby.
All of the interactions between the characters are so dang amusing. Alena would mutter things about the Roman right in front of him. Roman's guard and best friend Vlad wanted Tabby and snuck in her room, where Alena found them and later Roman found them.....he and Tabby kept trying to get Vlad to put on a shirt so that Alena didn't see him shirtless....so, so funny.
After Roman and Alena's first meeting, Roman sneaks in Alena's room every night and moves up the wedding night. Love his over the top personality and how Alena "handles" him. He really does treat her like a princess and then once they are married, just like the queen she is.

Stolen Princess
Such a sweet and sexy couple. Giselle is at a ball with her dad, but is hiding out in the bathroom to get away. Enter Karim who had seen her and follows her in, he is the King who has to find a queen.......and apparently he does. He literally doesn't waste anytime and I love it. Giselle is so sweet and Karim caters to that, which I also love.

Claimed Princess
Heavenly & Carlos have known each other for a long time, but since he is quite a bit older he has had to wait for her to turn of age by their laws. He supposed to be picking a wife.....but he already has. Since Heavenly is basically like a part of his family, she offers to marry his brother so that she can stay close to the family.....wrong thing to do. Carlos is not having it.
These two are best friends which I love, he finds her on their property when she's younger and then they are pretty much inseparable. She climbs in bed with him every night to sleep next to him and when he is working in his office she always lays in there and looks at magazines. I love the friendship between the two of them. It just made the story so much sweeter for me. Adorably, sweet couple.

Forbidden Princess
Vlad and Tabitha, Vlad and Tabitha, Vlad and Tabitha *jumps up and down*.....I have been "patiently" waiting for this book (shakes head)....and it was my favorite of the series. These two did not disappoint.
We first got a look at Vlad and Tabitha in His Princess and since Alexa Riley fans are relentless....they wrote us their book....yay. These two had so much chemistry in His Princess when they first saw each other, that they had to have their own book....and it was so, so dang good. This book was fun, sweet & steamy all in one.
If for some unfathomable reason you only want to read one book from the Princess series, make it this one *said with dreamy eyes*....absolutely loved these two. Relationship goals all the way.

Unexpected Princess
These two were a lot of fun for me. It starts out with her waking up in bed with a man next to her, but she's not sure who it is....yup, she had a bit to drink *wink*. When she realizes she has a wedding ring on and the man next to her is Romy, Carlos's "fast" brother she's so upset and freaks out. Naturally he goes after her, because he's been pining (yeah, totally just used that word) for her.
Romy cracks me up....and he's quite the charmer too *wink*. When he tells her "You are the most precious thing to me in the world. Now grab the headboard." ....so damn funny. I love Alexa Riley humor, so funny.

Like with all AR books we get great humor, hot as hell cavemen, insta-love, smoldering chemistry & hea epilogues.....absolutely love it. Sweet fairytales with all the naughty Alexa Riley charm.....love, love this series.

This is the heart of a man who loves you more than he ever thought he could. I didn't know what I was missing until you came into my life, Hannah. This heart believes in you, admires you and takes so much joy in you. 

I believe that quote says it all about what kind a man Brad is. I could just imagine all of his lazy smiles, easy going attitude and the love her felt for Hannah. Now let's talk about her; she is beautiful doctor who suffers from anxiety attacks. I'm ashamed to say I found myself in her friends reactions when they treat her problem like its a joke. Having a friend like her I know how scary the world can turn out to be so tnx to this book Im gonna try to be a better friend to her.

This couple was so easily to fall in love with  they were just perfect; from the way they started dating to the way they fell in love. It was just an easy read filled with laughter and a tear here and there. I LOVED IT.

I cant wait to read more about these people and their small town. I have a feeling we're in for a fun ride.
