Twisted Truths by P. Rayne is now live! ~ #Review #DarkFairytaleRetelling #BillionaireRomance




Twisted Truths by P. Rayne is now live!


A dark contemporary billionaire romance with a tortured hero, touch her and die, and secret society tropes from USA Today Bestselling Author duo P. Rayne.


About the Book:

My life changed forever the day I saved Obsidian Voss from drowning in the ocean.

When my father lands himself in trouble, I take a job working for Obsidian, one of the country’s most famous billionaires. It doesn’t take long for me to realize that there’s more behind the façade he presents to the world—a darker, more dangerous side.

Still, I’m drawn to him. As he introduces me to a world I never knew existed, I find myself falling for him. But I’m torn because I came to Midnight Manor with a hidden agenda, and I’ve been lying to Obsidian from the start. Eventually, he’s going to find out.

My secret will change everything. And if Obsidian really is the monster he thinks he is, what will he do to me?


My Review:

Twisted Truths is the fourth and final book in the Midnight Manners series. The story is a gritty, dark romance. A wonderfully different, adult retelling of The Little Mermaid, this novel will pull you in and it won't let you go until the end. And even then, you'll be thinking about Obsidian and Ariana long after you close the book.

Ariana grew up a grifter with her dad and brother until she decided she wanted out. Still living with them though makes it hard on Ariana. Things go especially out of control after Ariana saves Obsidian from drowning and her father wants to use that to their advantage. Now, she is employed by Obsidian and her hidden agenda is constantly on her mind. 

Obsidian's issues and pain is always at the edge of his mind, torturing him. We've known very little about him in the previous books. Twisted Truths brings Sid to the front of the line and exposes him, his complexities, the reason behind his pain. 

Ariana and Sid are perfect for one another. Their story is spicy, their chemistry electric, their romance fascinating. I love the retelling of The Little Mermaid. The story is unique, captivating, and intense. This book has wonderful characters, a sexy plot, and wonderful world-building. The authors created emotionally-driven main characters. This was a fast-paced story with a romance that developed unconventionally, but for this pair, it worked.

I was provided a copy of this book.

Midnight Whispers by P. Rayne is now live!


About the Book:

A dark, contemporary, billionaire romance featuring anti-hero, secret society and close proximity tropes from USA Today Bestselling duo P. Rayne.

I spend my nights slinging drinks at Black Magic Bar or taking my clothes off at the local strip club. After my father passed, my stepmother gave me no other choice.

But when I break free of the chains binding me to my family estate, I find myself with nowhere to go. Until Nero Voss, the youngest of the billionaire Voss brothers, offers me a room at Midnight Manor. Now, I’m under his watchful gaze and enjoying it more than I should.

I shouldn’t give in to temptation, he is my stepsister’s ex-fiancé after all, but the pull toward him grows stronger by the day. I fight, but I’m losing the battle.

Nero is keeping secrets, though.

What he doesn’t know is that I’m keeping secrets, too.

My Review:

Midnight Whispers is a gritty, dark romance. A wonderfully different, adult retelling of Cinderella, this novel will pull you in and it won't let you go until the end. And even then, you'll be thinking about Nero and Cinder long after you close the book.

Nero is the baby of the Voss family. His past history seems to be cropping back up after he breaks his engagement. Cinder is drawn to the man who sits away from the stage in the dark. When their paths cross after Cinder leaves her home, Nero brings her back to Midnight Manor.

This book has wonderful characters, a sexy plot, and wonderful world-building. The authors created emotionally-driven main characters. This was a fast-paced story with a romance that developed unconventionally, but for this pair, it worked.

Shattered Vows by P. Rayne is now live! ~ #DarkRomance #DarkContemporaryRomance #PRayne



Shattered Vows by P. Rayne is now live!

About the Book:

Once upon a time, I thought I’d found my happy ever after. Until she ruined it all.

I’d been on the hunt for four long years, and I finally found her.

I planned the perfect revenge. Kidnapping Rapsody on the day she was set to marry another man and forcing her to face my wrath while trapped in the confines of my family’s gothic manor.

Despite my desire to punish her, there is still an undeniable pull between us. But as the walls of the manor close in around us, we both have to confront the truth. Can we trust each other, or will my dark past consume us both?

SHATTERED VOWS is a dark contemporary romance that weaves together the themes of desire and redemption and is a Rapunzel reimagining with the following tropes: age gap, anti-hero, gothic romance, secret society, forced proximity, opposites attract, enemies to lovers, morality chain, billionaire, and second chance.

My Review:

Shattered Vows is a gritty, dark romance. A wonderful retelling of Rapunzel, but spicier, this novel will pull you in and not let you go until it's over. 

Kol is a dreamy hero with a horrific past. When he meets Rapsody a few years prior, he felt whole, complete. Set to be married, he's distraught when Rapsody skips out on their wedding day, then disappears completely. 

Rapsody fled four years ago to keep herself and her mom safe. They've made new lives for themselves but the man of her dreams has found her. She was getting ready to marry another man when Kol swoops in on her wedding day. Kol kidnaps her and Rapsody finds herself trapped in Midnight Manor.

This book has wonderful characters, a sexy plot, and wonderful world-building. The authors created emotionally-driven main characters. This was a fast-paced story with a romance that truly never died the day Rapsody stood up Kol. There is a twist at the end that I should have seen coming, but I didn't. 

I loved this book and can't wait for the next one.

I was provided a copy of this book.

Moonlit Thorns by P. Rayne is now live! @PiperRayneRocks @valentine_pr_ ~ Dark Contemporary Romance




Moonlit Thorns by P. Rayne is now live!


No one knows what happens up at Midnight Manor.


The home of the Voss brothers sits like a sentinel looking down on our small town, remaining a mystery. The four brooding billionaires rarely leave the confines of the iron gates, fueling rumors that have existed for decades.


When my father dies, all the security I’ve known is ripped away, forcing me to come face to face with the eldest brother, Asher Voss. His outward beauty is just as I’d heard—it belies a predatory nature, irresistibly drawing me in.


A bargain is made, and I have no choice but to live in the shadowy confines of his gothic manor to save my family. As time passes, it becomes harder and harder to deny our attraction.


Asher Voss might be too old for me, and he’s definitely cursed by his own demons, but an inferno of passion between us threatens to either consume or destroy us both.


MOONLIT THORNS is a dark, contemporary romance, Beauty and the Beast retelling.


My Review:


Moonlit Thorns is a gritty, dark romance. A wonderful retelling of Beauty and Beast but spicier, this novel will pull you in and not let you go until it's over.

Asher is a dreamy hero with a horrific past. Annabelle just lost her father and is about to lose their family legacy. When she sought help from the very family that is threatening to take their familial home, she steps into Midnight Manor and her whole world changes.

This book has wonderful characters, a sexy plot, and wonderful world-building. The authors created emotionally-driven main characters. I loved this book and can't wait for the next one.

Book #Review ~ Craving My Rival by P. Rayne ~ #MafiaRomance #Romance #Mafia @valentine_pr_

 



Craving My Rival by P. Rayne is now live! 


Polina Aminoff


At the Sicuro Academy, the Russians and the Italians give each other a wide berth. We’re bitter enemies after all.


So imagine my disbelief when my brother announces that I’m to wed Dante Accardi, next in line to run the Accardi Italian crime family.


After the shock subsides, I’m determined to save myself. It’s not until my plan is in full swing that I realize there might be more to Dante than I first thought. But those closest to me, those who were supposed to protect me have always hurt me. Now, I have to decide whether to trust him with my heart or whether he’ll just be another person in my life who brings me to my knees.


Dante Accardi


Polina Aminoff is a Bratva brat and an ice princess that I don’t think even an easy-going guy like me can thaw. And I’ve never had an issue melting the panties off a woman before. I’m just as unhappy about our engagement as she is, but my father made it clear—it is my duty to the family.


Once we’re forced together, another side of Polina shines and I start to think we could have a future together that doesn’t involve being bitter rivals.


But she’s hiding something, I just don’t know what. Which leaves me wondering, can I ever really trust my enemy?


My Review:


Craving My Rival is a wonderful fourth book in The Mafia Academy series.

The book was exceptionally written. I love mafia romances and Craving My Rival checked all of the boxes for me. The story is character-driven, focusing on Polina Aminoff and Dante Accardi. Polina, a Russian mafia princess, and bitter enemies of the Italian mob families. Dante, next inline to the Accardi Italian crime family and notorious playboy.  When the Russian princess and the Italian playboy are matched for marriage, will sparks or death threads fly?

I loved the dynamics between Polina and Dante. Polina isn't at all what she seems. Her ice princess facade tends to melt in the presence of Dante. Dante can't understand the feelings coursing through his body the more he spends time with Polina. I enjoyed their struggles as their feelings grew for one another. Bitter rivals, dangerous enemies, and ultimately a wonderful created slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance. I was engaged in their story every step of the way.

Craving My Rival is an excellent book.

I was provided a copy of this book to read.

New Release ~ Corrupting the Innocent by P. Rayne ~ #MafiaRomance #Mafia #Romance @valentine_pr_

Corrupting the Innocent by P. Rayne is now live!

Sofia Moretti

For years, I’ve harbored a secret love for my best friend’s older brother. Yet, he’s never shown any sign of sharing my feelings.

My fantasies will remain just that though—fantasies. For two reasons. The first being he’s arranged to marry the cunning and cold-hearted, Aurora Salucci. The second being that Antonio always does what his duty demands, and if his father wants him married to Aurora, he’ll marry her.

Now, I’m forced to watch her parade him all over the Sicuro Academy, our private college for mafia children, as my feelings of loneliness grow.

I do my best to push Antonio from my mind and when another man shows me interest, I hope he’ll help me move on from the man that will never be mine.

Turns out it doesn’t quite work that way though.

Antonio La Rosa

My life has been a series of duties—to the mafia, to my father, but never to myself.

That’s why my father arranged my engagement to Aurora Salucci. We’re a good match as far as mafia politics go but it leaves a lot to be desired for me. She’s nothing I’ve ever wanted in a wife with her hard edges and being about as malleable as granite.

Then there’s Sofia Moretti, my little sister’s best friend. I never looked at her with anything other than sisterly affection, until recently.

Now, she consumes my every thought. My every desire.

Her innocence beckons me, and I yearn to be the one who taints it.

But I have a duty. And that duty means prioritizing my family’s needs above my own.

And right now, the family needs me to uncover the traitor plotting against us. Little do I know, the enemy is closer than I ever imagined. 


My Review:

I can't believe how exceptionally well this book was written. I love mafia romances and Corrupting the Innocent was fantastic. The story is character-driven, focusing on Sofia Moretti and Antonio La Rosa.

I loved the dynamics between Sofia and Antonio. Contrary to her best friend Mira in book 1, Sofia wants to become the traditional mafia wife. Only, her crush on Antonio is unrequited since Antonio is engaged to another woman via an arranged marriage.

Corrupting the Innocent is an excellent book. I can't wait for the next story in the series.

I was provided an ebook to read but I've already added a paperback of both books in the series to my Amazon cart.
