A LESSON IN THORNS by Sierra Simone

Hi there! Today I wanted to share with you one of my latest reads. I'm talking about Sierra Simone's Thornchapel novels, but specifically about A LESSON IN THORNS, the first installment of this seductive series.

A LESSON IN THORNS is a book that surprised me. It was edgy, sexy but also suspenseful, mixed with a little bit of angst and a whole lot of magic. It was an amazing read. The book is filled with a lot of feelings and will keep you on the edge of your seat for the whole journey.

Beware, because you may also need a bunch of cold showers.

Now, Take a look...

ABOUT THE BOOK:

When librarian Poe Markham takes the job at Thornchapel, she only wants two things: to stay away from Thornchapel’s tortured owner, Auden Guest, and to find out what happened to her mother twelve years ago. It should be easy enough—keep her head down while she works in the house’s crumbling private library and while she hunts down any information as to why this remote manor tucked into the fog-shrouded moors would be the last place her mother was seen alive. But Thornchapel has other plans for her...

As Poe begins uncovering the house’s secrets, both new and old, she’s also pulled into the seductive, elegant world of Auden and his friends—and drawn to Auden’s worst enemy, the beautiful and brooding St. Sebastian. And as Thornchapel slowly tightens its coil of truths and lies around them, Poe, Auden and St. Sebastian start unravelling into filthy, holy pleasure and pain. Together, they awaken a fate that will either anoint them or leave them in ashes…

From the author of the USA Today bestselling New Camelot series comes an original fairy tale full of ancient mysteries, lantern-lit rituals, jealousy, money, murder, sacred torment, and obsessions that last for lifetimes...

Personal note: I loved, like really really loved this book. It isn't like any other book that I've read before, and now I can't wait to read the next book (that I may, or may not, have bought already).

REVIEW | WORK IN PROGRESS by Staci Hart

Last week Staci Hart published a new book in the RLC world, and I'm not exaggerating when I say I was dying to read it. After Piece of Work and Player, I was really curious about this particular group of friends and now I can share with you my experience.

About the book:

I never thought my first kiss would be on my wedding day.

But here I stand, clutching a bouquet of pale pink roses behind the doors of a Las Vegas chapel, and at the end of the aisle is the absolute last man I imagined would be waiting for me.

Thomas Bane.

Bestselling author. Notorious bad boy. Savagely handsome, dark as sin, chiseled as stone. And somehow, my soon-to-be husband.

Marry him, and I’ll land my dream job. Save him, and I’ll walk away with everything I’ve ever wanted. All I have to do is remember it’s all for show. None of it is real, no matter how real it feels.

But first, I have to survive the kiss.

And with lips like his, I don’t stand a chance.

My Review:

Amelia Hall is a book blogger, like me. She's shy and a little bit awkward with everyone but her friends. She's behind a successful named Hall of Books, and through her journey she became acquaintance with Thomas Bane's books. Maybe they aren't the book with the highest rating in Amelia's pile, but she insists she doesn't hate them. Amelia is a good girl. She's sweet and kind, she loves her family, her friends and her cat, and she lives and breathes books, and her goal is to become an editor for a publishing house.

Thomas Bane, in the other hand, is the ultimate bad boy of the book world. He's sexy and mysterious, with this rebel vibe going on, long hair and leather jacket included. His name is synonymous of trouble and, according to the story, even his hair has an IG account. Thomas fame started with a very public relationship, and ever since his journey as author started he's graced every gossip site, magazine or TV show known by the man.

But in this land of liars and pretenders, what’s real and what’s not? Well, my friends, you’ll have to read to discover it.

I have no words to explain how much I loved this book. It was sweet, romantic, and oh, so much fun! The RLC is one of my favorite discoveries, and I've started to wear red lipstick myself in honor to the wonderful ladies leading these books. My first read by Staci Hart was Piece of Work, and I was blown away by her writing. This time wasn’t different.

Amelia is such a wonderful character, passionate about the written word, caring and beautiful inside and out. Tommy is the perfect opposite with his bad boy attitude and his cynic way of seeing life. Every time they were in the same room, since the first chapter, there were sparks flying around. So sexy!!

You’ll love Thomas. He’s the ultimate book boyfriend. And not to read this story, quoting my favorite (and fictional) book blogger, is an unforgivable sin. So grab your copy and enjoy the ride. You can find it on Amazon. Can’t wait to know what you think.
