Love wins it all. Always.
And Our Violent Ends proves it with so much pride and no prejudice. I loved the first book and found it fascinating, especially since it’s not set in England or USA and the characters just come to life throughout the pages.
This duet is one of the most recommended stories I can always bring up from now on when someone asks me for a great storyline, characters and, mostly, HEA.
It’s full of heartbreaking moments, some very blunt dialogue and so much love felt through all the characters’ actions and moves around every new twist that comes up in their path.
Loved it and can’t believe this is actually a debut series.

I haven’t read the first book but I can’t wait to read it after this one. I think it can be read as a standalone overall but now that I finished, I really want to know more about these characters and how they got here in the first place.
It’s hilarious to the point of crying with laughter, it’s heartbreaking at times because I really felt Meddy’s distress throughout the wedding day and while I would’ve reacted totally different, I’m also hi five her for being cool with it all and protect her loved ones.
Those aunts are irreplaceable and I would love to have a family like that in real life.
Read it when it comes out next year and you won’t regret it!

Victor is a beautiful and heartbreaking story with lots of sparks and suspenseful moments. While a slow burn is not my go to usually, this one was so worth the wait.
Sabine is not your usual heroine and from outside she looks like any spoiled rich woman that has everything one might want, a beautiful penthouse in Manhattan, a rich husband and a great job. But everything is deceiving, as underneath all that sparkle, there's something hidden that nobody will see. Until him. Until Victor sees himself in her position years ago and their cross paths transform their lives.

Childhood friends get married and all families involved are living their best lives together.
Until one day when everything changes. What appears to be an accident is proven by the police to be a murder, and everyone becomes wary of each other. I enjoyed many of the author's books in the past and this one was intriguing and fast-paced, as usual.
I can't say that I actually liked any of the characters, but those turns really caught up with me, especially after the last unpredictable twist when many other scenes made more sense than before.
Twisted and intriguing, this is another marvellous story by a favourite author.

Wish you were here is such an emotional read. While Covid plays a huge part in the book, it's worth reading it because it gives so much of the true nuances of life in these times.
So many beautiful setting descriptions for the Galápagos Islands and such a heartbreaking story overall. It takes about Diana and Finn, a beautiful couple that have to go through so much while in lockdown and in the frontline of it all. Survival, loneliness, grief and, more than anything, human experiences and emotionalism.
It might be hard for some to read it but it's really with the time. The first half of the story is set in Galapagos and I could really see why the author is such a beloved storyteller.

Eliza and Jet are so good together. They cross paths in a very unusual way and what comes next is a tale of friendship that becomes more than it when sparks starts to fly.
A story about family feuds, trusting the wrong persons and also finding love in the most unexpected moments. I was On the edge most of the time especially in the second part of the book when the suspenseful moments kept me invested in finding out who has actually killed Eliza’s parents and how everything will be solved.
Darker and suspenseful, a perfect story for anyone who wants to dip their toes into mafia romance.

I loved how the chapters go back and forth between them and now, between the time Norah and Andrew met for the first time and years later when a second chance opportunity arises.
I liked the secondary characters and they all brought a smile on my face true their advices or friendship to Norah.
Her inner dialogue was interesting and the story moves fast.
If you’re looking for a good few hours of a heartwarming love , read this now!

Marlena is a young mother married into one of the richest family in America. One night she disappeared and her estranged husband, Ben , is the one that makes the call of their disappearance.
As usual, the first suspect will be the husband especially after so many complaints and rumours that they were always fighting and never seem to be a happy family.
This fourth instalment in the Detective Megan Carpenter series is probably my favourite out of all. Mostly because we get so much closer to Megan and the wonderful character that the author has created here. She’s always driven to find the truth and finds time for herself as a normal person as well. I laughed so much at some interactions and I really enjoyed her way too work with her police colleagues and everyone around her.
It’s such a great, intriguing police procedural story with so many twists and turns that really kept me engaged until the final page.
