***5 ‘The Exorcist Could Be Her Fucking Memoir’ Stars*** I feel like I’ve been emotionally rode hard and put wet and fuck me, if I don’t want more of it. This book is gratuitous everything to the Nth degree and then some. Hell, I can barely make sense of the crazy in my head (And will have to totally edit this review to make it Amazon friendly) and doing anything with a sense of order probably won’t happen...just a little warning. The word ‘Depravity’ was the hook. I mean, I love a good enemies to lovers romance, but this baby went waaaayyyy above and beyond that. They say there is a thin line between love and hate and in Breakdown that line doesn’t exist...for anyone. Everyone in this book is an enemy and lover all in the same breath and it created such a toxic brew that in the end, it was the norm, not the exception. There are no saints in this story, though to call any of them sinners is an understatement. These characters...ALL of them are flawed, barely likeable on...

***4 ‘#TeamOllie’ Stars*** This book tried me. I mean, in the end I loved it, but when you are only a couple chapters in and need to toss the Kindle into the freezer for a time out (the alternative was tossing against a wall) is strong, you know it’s gonna be a book that will end up trying your patience. BUT I had to remind myself that the author has rarely ever let me down, and the need to know more about Ollie was STRONG, so I kept at it. And though there were many more frustrating moments that did occur, the sweet, smexy and heart melting ones helped to balance it all out and made for a page turning read. So, Van, Kyra and Ollie. It’s obvious that I am all about Ollie. He is something of an understated alpha male. He’s laid back, quick to smile. and doesn’t come off as the aggressive type, but lemme tell you, when he gets passionate about something the alpha comes out and when you mix that with his insecurities...simply put the man is lethal. Van is all kinds of protecti...

***5 ‘#TeamDiesel’ Stars*** Now that’s how you bring all the pieces together and put them back together the way they should be! It wasn’t easy, and still just as frustrating as watching the events in High Tide, but this time I was hooked on all that was going on with Hollie and Diesel and absolutely loved watching them both finally become the people they were always meant to be. So, my review for High Tide was insanely vague, but considering who is gracing the cover of Island Side, I figure I can be a little less vague. Since it’s quite obvious which...horse...I was rooting for, I can say that I ADORED Diesel. Yes, he is an unrepentant asshat for much of the time I’ve ‘known’ him, but I couldn’t help but respect the brutal honesty that came out of him. Could he have been a bit more considerate and tactful? Sure, but that isn’t him and as I finally got to see under the anger, I found a man with a battered, but golden and wise heart. Hollie. Here’s the thing with Hollie. I...
