Once You’re Mine

I didn’t hate this book.

It felt a little rushed in places but it was an easy read and it wasn’t overly dark. Maybe not dark enough for me but I would definitely recommend this as a good starter book for someone looking to get into the dark/stalker romance genre! #darkromance #bookish #readersoflemon8

Super quick, fun read. I liked the slow buildup for the romantic/sexual tension. This style MMC usually feels way over done, however I really liked Hayden and that there actually seems to be more to him than just broody morally gray man. Calista is a decent FMC, I do like that she has normal respon

HIS STREETS, NOT MINE …. Part 5

Peaches wasn’t built for small talk or soft bonds. People were temporary. Priest wasn’t. He’d never lied to her, never sent her somewhere blind. So when he said execute, she didn’t ask if—only how clean. The Uber pulled off the curb, city lights smearing against the glass like wet paint. Peaches
