Review: Liarholic



One, two, three, four, five . . . the lyrics to the hell inside your OCD head.

You’re broken, Amy. I did this. Can’t undo that.

Six years ago, I played a cruel joke on you in front of the whole school. I ripped your heart out.

Now, I’m back to fix what I broke. I’m a psychologist, Amy. I can give you back the happiness I stole . . .

 

It’s all a lie. I’m not a shrink.

So what. She doesn’t get a choice.

So what if I make her attend my fake therapy sessions, keep the truth hidden.

So what if I get her addicted to my body like a painkiller, make her wish me dead.

I’m not the hero. I’m the monster. The orphan boy gone bad. Cursed, everything broken.

So what, when I discover a secret that makes her every inch off-limits, I won't keep my hands off her.

Her bones are made from emeralds, she’s that precious.

I won’t stop chasing her until she’s mine.

 

But Amy is a pretty little liar, too.

Only one of us is telling the truth.

So bloody what. Nobody’s gonna believe her over me.

 

It’s her word . . .

. . . against MINE.

 

You’re in a bad place, Amy, where the monsters go. But it’s only in the bad places . . . I can get to you.

 

Disclaimer: No cheating — this alpha-hole keeps it in his pants.

 

Fast-paced. Turns & twists. Sizzling hot. Dark & deliciously poetic. Witty.


My Review 

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

First, let me say this was not what I was expecting. I wasn’t expecting the triggers that I got. Liarholic is dark and twisted. Which is why I gave the rating I did. Honestly, I was expecting a RomCom, and I didn’t get that. This is not a story for those that have major triggers, and I think that should have been stated. As the only warning, we were awarded was there is no cheating. I did enjoy the fact that there was a slow burn. I really wish I could have enjoyed this book more. This was my first story by Ash, and although I didn’t enjoy this one, I plan to give the author another shot. 


Review: Treachery Prequel





 PREQUEL NOVELLA TO TREACHERY

 

Ninth Circle.

Treachery.

Also known as Tanner Caine.

 

He is a temptation with cold, dark eyes.

A man with a seductive smirk and a body built for pure sin.

The linchpin of a group of wealthy bad boys known as the Inferno.

 

A dark presence that repels as much as he attracts, Tanner is the poisoned apple I want to bite even when I know it will destroy me.

 

Our story started in college, but I ran from him so far I believed I was safe.

I should have known he’d find me eventually.

I should have known that nobody escapes.

 

He has me in his sights again with an offer I can’t pass up.

I know better than to make a deal with the Devil.

Not unless I’m willing to pay his sensual price…

 

(Treachery Prequel comes before Treachery of the Antihero Inferno Series and occurs during the college years.)

 

***Each novel in the series depicts a unique romance, but the plots through each book connect in one world. For the best experience, read the series in order.

 

Nine dangerous men.

Nine unrepentant sinners you’ll hate to love.


My Review 



My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first story well prequel to the first in the Antihero Inferno series and my first by Lily White. This book was just what the doctor ordered. I’ve been incinerated by Tanner Caine, and I can’t wait for the rest of the guys! This story has it all steam, spice, and just enough mystery to keep a gal entertained. Great original characters and an awesome new way to set up a social circle. If you like reading about the nine circles, then you need to start this series. I know I can’t wait for the next one!
