— REVIEW: 5 STARS —
Talk about an ending I did not see coming! Ha. I usually have my theories as I read suspense novels, but with Backburn, I was at a loss. I swiped the pages with a need to find out "who the bad guy was" because I honestly had no idea. I mean, all my theories got tossed out the window as the story progressed! Loved that! It kept me intrigued the entire time. 

Dave Metcalf...there's nothing that anyone could NOT love about this man. Right off the bat, my heart yearned for him, but then it swooned completely. Nothing sexier, to me, than a great father! And Marissa? I loved her character ever since she got introduced in the other books. She's strong despite her insecurities in the love department which was something I truly enjoyed. She wasn't weak in any way, shape, or form. A truly great female lead! I also loved her relationship with Ashton, Metcalf's son. It was heartwarming to see her put him first always. 

As always, the author included some HOT scenes right along with the suspenseful ones making this a must read Romantic Suspense. The ending....man, I loved it!! It was perfect for Metcalf and Marissa and just what they not only needed, but deserved! Once again, five stars to a Brandy L Rivers book!

BOOK #1: HEART ON FIRE
BOOK #2: FALLING STAR

 — REVIEW: 5 STARS  —
"I found a man who treats me like a queen."

Isandro was delicious. He was an alpha with a sweet side that melted my heart! Arianna had a lot of insecurities because of everything that had happened to her (and trust me, she went trough A LOT), and she had a hard time trusting Isandro really wanted her. She couldn't believe that such a hunk of a man was truly interested in her. Luckily, Isandro was patient and stubborn. He wanted her for the longest time and he wasn't about to lose her once more. 

"You're all I ever wanted."

Off to a rocky start, Arianna and Isandro's relationship only got more complicated. Outside forces seemed to want to get in the way of their love. Arianna's mom, for starters, was a complete snob that was firmly against her daughter's relationship. Leave it to Ms. Rivers to create the perfect character we all love to hate. Then there were all the other things happening around Arianna and Isandro that added an intriguing element of suspense to this already amazing book. Arianna wasn't safe...

With hot and passionate scenes, this Contemporary Romance will make you fan yourself quite often! If you're in the mood for a gooood romantic suspense, Sweet Tooth should be your next read! While it's book three in the Combustible Series, it can be completely read as a standalone, 100%! Five Stars!

Deadly Design by Brandy L Rivers

Genre: Paranormal Romance
Release Date: October 24th

— SYNOPSIS —
Some deadly designs can right the wrongs of the past…

Years ago, Erik Mortale loved and lost Monique when he chose his path. He wanted to make a difference, to change the mages’ perspective of Other casters. Erik made great strides until a death tore them apart.

Monique DeSandre has been burned repeatedly by the Silver Council and their misconceptions of Enchanters. The designer has made a name for herself as the leading supplier of magically enhanced clothing. As much as she’s tried to leave Erik in the past, she can’t let go, no matter their differing views.

The new magister has created a new Diverse Special Forces program. Once again Erik has been brought back as one of the high-ranking Enforcers as well as a trainer. However, an elitist mage wants to destroy the group and has chosen Erik as the scapegoat.

With tensions rising, Monique will fight for the man she’s pushed away for years. But is it too late to fix what’s broken? And can they prove Erik isn’t the one behind the ritualistic murders?

BY FAR MY FAVORITE INSTALLMENT IN THE SERIES!!
Erik.
Man, what a swoony guy!!!! I loved, loved, loved him and I absolutely LOVED how much he loved Monique. He did anything for her, even if it meant putting himself in not-so-pleasant situations. I loved his parents too and Monique's dad. Her mom? Meh. Not so much! She got on my last nerve! Not that I could blame her for the attitude and hatred she seemed to feel all the time towards mages, but ugh—she pissed me off a lot! I found myself telling her time and time again to back off!

The dead people part of this story was slightly (not-so-slightly) creepy!! I can't imagine living with that gift like Erik did...but he was pretty bad-ass!

There's suspense, drama, action, hotness, and everything a must-read paranormal romance novel should have! Brandy L Rivers truly hit a home-run with DEADLY DESIGN. FIVE STARS!
