Synopsis


We all have tragic backstories in today’s world... 

I wake up chained to the wall of a dark cell aware of two things: I failed my sister, and I smell my enemy.

When I’m taken to meet Dare, the alpha of the Silver Tip pack, I’m sure I’m about to lose my throat. The last thing I expect is for the Alpha to recognize me as his fated mate. No way is he going to let me go now, and I still have to find a way to rescue my sister.

As I plot my escape to save her, I find that if I leave, Dare could be killed by power-hungry members of his pack. And now he’s more to me than my fated mate—my heart is involved. With time ticking by on my sister’s life, I have to make a choice I never thought I’d face—my sister’s life or my mate’s? That’s if I can survive the undead shifters intent on killing me first…

Review


Megan's new series is going to shake the world.

Silver Tip Pack series's first book, Daring Fate is just want I needed. It was sweet, intriguing, sexy and I was totally shipping everyone with everyone. The main ship is so adorable and has the best trope tbh. But omg the other side couples are !!! one especially, you'll know which I'm talking about when you read it but JESUS THE TROPE FOR THIS COUPLE IS MY NEW KINDS OF FAVE I want a book about them but I'm not sure if there will be one.

This book has werewolves, big wolves, zombies, a tight-knit family, and two protagonists who you see fall head over heels for each other. It all starts sort of enemies-to-lovers and two men that belong to different packs. Never in the world has the world seen a werewolf and a wolf as fated mates, but it just happens that Reese and Dare are fated mates. It's scary at the beginning for Reese because he wakes up in the home of his enemy and he is the only who can help him.

For fans of Underworld and The Walking Dead, this book is surely for you. The danger, the love, the family ties between people who share no blood between them, the undeads, the survival ~ this book has it all. I am really excited for what's to come in the next books. Megan Erickson, you just gave us a homerun.

Hello, voyagers! I bring you today a special post for me. If you don't know, I'm Mexican, I live in Mexico. I love to see Latinxs in books, especially Mexicans. I try to find books that have POC as MCs instead of the same old same old white characters you see everywhere. And when I find Latinxs, I pray it's good and that it doesn't have stereotypes, because sometimes the author isn't Latinx and I'm a bit worried the rep would be bad. Sometimes it comes out okay but sometimes it doesn't.

This is going to be a list of books that, in my opinion, have a good rep (I may have not read it but I know it has good rep) and are fun, addicting, and filled with love. I hope you guys enjoy!

Title: Steadfast
Series: True North #2
Author: Sarina Bowen
Release date: July 12th, 2016
Genre: Adult Romance Contemporary 

Goodreads | Amazon | B&N | Kobo


She’s the only one who ever loved him—and the only one he can never have. 

Jude lost everything one spring day when he crashed his car into an apple tree on the side of the road. A man is dead, and there's no way he can ever right that wrong. He’d steer clear of Colebury, Vermont forever if he could. But an ex-con in recovery for his drug addiction can’t find a job just anywhere. 

For Sophie Haines, coming face to face with the man who broke her heart is gut-wrenching. Suddenly, he’s everywhere she turns. It’s hard not to stare at how much he’s changed. The bad boy who used to love her didn’t have big biceps and sun-kissed hair. And he’d never turn up volunteer in the church kitchen. 

She knows it’s foolish to yearn for the man who returned all the heartsick letters she wrote him in prison. But the looks he sends her now speak volumes. 

No one wants to see Sophie and Jude back together, least of all Sophie's police chief father. But it's a small town. And forbidden love is a law unto itself.


Sarina Bowen is an auto-buy author for me. Her newest series is about some Vermont guys that just want to have their happily ever afters with the women they love. The books are really sweet and super romantic but also have their Sarina Bowen shot of hotness. 

I enjoyed Steadfast quite a lot. Jude and Sophie were great as MCs and made me feel all the feels since the very first page. I knew I was about to be crushed when I read the blurb and started the book. It's actually a wild ride. You don't see much of them meeting until a bit far in the book which was fine by me because it wasn't just about them being together but being able to grow as their own person. 

Jude has to deal with lots of things: work, his family, his addiction (which Bowen doesn't romanticize!!) and seeing Sophie again after so many years. He's keeping secrets and he is struggling but he is set to become a better person, for himself and for Sophie. I love love love seeing the Shipleys again because they help Jude so much and treat him as he is part of the fam which is awesome.

Sophie's life isn't sweet and easy either. After the death of her brother, her family has been destroyed. Mom sits down without doing nothing all day. Dad is treating her so much worse than before. She has to do everything in her house or it will fall down soon enough. And when she finds out Jude is back in town, her plans go out the window. We see verbal abuse in Sophie's house: her father treats her horrible, so horrible that he calls her horrible nouns I don't want to mention but you can probably imagine. 

So this book is different from Bittersweet in a way that it speaks a lot louder in terms of drug addiction and abuse. It has all the romance and these two are so damn adorable but yeah, you cannot just leave out these and not talk about them. 

I am very excited about the 3rd and final (? I think so) book of this series!! Zach is someone I've wanted to know his story for a while now. It's gonna be supaaaah.


Sarina Bowen is the USA Today bestselling author of steamy, angsty Contemporary Romance and New Adult fiction. She lives in the wilds of Vermont.

Hey guys! Sil here. I got this idea of doing this list, especially because it's Pride Month! I encourage you to support LGBT+ authors and stories, and #ownvoices. Review, read, talk about them - they are important!

The year is coming to an end *cues crying* This year passed so fast, I swear - like seriously - January was just last month. But nope, it seems 2016 is a little bit far enough to see it already. This year there have been many great books that we wish to reread for all eternity (when we're feeling down or just plain happy, when we need that quote/moment to push us forward). And we will like to mention them in this post because they deserve all the talk and the love!
