AVAILABLE NOW

My Review

Hot Diggity Damn Y’all! There is not a genre or trope Author Holly Renee writes that I do not absolutely obsess over. No lie. I am convinced that she could write the ingredients on a menu advertising a double decker sardine and spam sandwich and I would be the first in line to devour that delicious delicacy. 

This may be this author’s first jump into the fantasy romance pool but she takes it on like Michael Phelps because that’s the kind of word wizard she is, and that is how much she pours herself into each and every project she takes on. BRILLIANT!!

The Kingdom of Stars and Shadows brings us the story of Adara and Evren. Adara, known as the Starblessed and Prince Evren, the non-crowned Prince. Adara has been betrothed since childhood to Prince Gavril, who also happens to be Evren’s brother. She is not happy about this arrangement and decides to do everything in her power to try to escape that fate. Her rebellious and fiery spirit is addictive and you can help but to fall for her. You root for her and your heart bleeds for her. You totally get the draw she has to Evren. This heroine is my kinda gal. Rebellious yet torn. An ass kicker with a heart of gold. Terrified of what’s to come but still so brave and bold. 

Evren is gorgeous and protective. He takes care of Adara in a way that only he can. He is the perfect mix of swoony and alpha. Protective and possessive. Bound by duty and loyalty to his father and brother, a force to be reckoned with. It is a deep struggle for him to watch his brother get closer to taking what he wants so badly. You will fall for him, be frustrated for him and most definitely be fanning yourself over him. He is all kinds of dirty talking, and sexy mysterious power and he will surprise you over and over again. He seems like such a loyal and faithful servant… But to whom is he most loyal?! 

Majestically magical and fabulously forbidden, this story is unique, unforgettably engaging and will have you hanging on every single second from the start until the suckerpunching cliffy at the end. I was left with questions lurking behind everything surrounding Evren. I always felt like I didn’t know everything going on. Like maybe as soon as I thought I had a handle on it I’d get another twist or curve thrown my way to kick things into another gear and I freaking love that feeling.

This is the kind of fantastical fantasy book I live to devour. It’s fascinating and exciting and leaves me giddy with anticipation for the next book, knowing I will get the answers I seek. I’m eager for more Evren, and oh so anxious for all the Adara. Make sure you dive into the dirty deliciousness that is this forbidden, and angsty story full of steam, action, twists, and loads of anger filled banter.  Remember…forbidden fruit always tastes the sweetest. 

I am going to darn near die of anticipation waiting for A Kingdom of Blood and Betrayal. Can one truly die of anticipation? I guess we shall see.  But either way it’s coming this fall y’all. So make sure you add it to your TBR and pre-order it today. FIVE FATED STARS   ⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨

The Temptation of Dirty Secrets Review

Captivating. Vulnerable. Agonizing. Seductive. Frankie Clermont was supposed to be like a sister to me for as long as I’d known her.

But no one knew the depths of our lies.

I had been in love with her before… before everything changed what we could be.

Undeniably connected and effortlessly infatuated, the two of us had remained each other’s weaknesses through everything.

I couldn’t afford to allow her to be my weakness anymore. I was in love with someone else. I was engaged.

But it didn’t matter how much time had passed, the moment I saw her again, I knew I would never escape her.

I never should have touched her again. Whispering her name in the dark was a mistake.

She was still everything I wanted and nothing I should have had.

We became a secret that neither of us could keep.
A devastating secret that would destroy everything.

Frustratingly Fantastic, Tantalizingly Torturous, and Heartbreaking as much as was heart-healing, this conclusion to Olly and Frankie’s story was unputdownable, and unforgettable. An unbelievable mix of angst and agony to my heart, but one that I would willingly subject myself to over and over again. The story that started unfolding by dropping little hints from the very beginning of The Boys of Clermont Bay series, showed us that something was always there between Olly and Frankie. Those little nuggets Holly Renee had been planting had me jonesing (and not always so patiently) for their time to tell their story and let me tell y’all. It.Was.So.Worth.The.Wait. 

I spent a big portion of this book torn between wanting to climb inside my kindle and smack Olly and Frankie upside the heads and knocking some sense into them-and then the other parts enabling every ounce of restraint I possessed to ensure I didn’t chuck my kindle at the wall out of frustration, because they spent so much time apart.Time that maybe they shouldn’t have had to. If only…

But truly in their times apart they both grew and learned things in their own way. They had different views on what they were and what they could become. They both grew and matured on their own, but in totally different ways. Frankie had realized what she truly deserves in her life and that was the only thing she was going to settle for going forward in her life. Olly finally realized what he needed to do to be the man Frankie deserves and prioritized his life accordingly.

While it was gut wrenching for these two characters as well as it was for me being so invested in their journey, I knew it was essential that they traveled those bumps and turns along the way to get to the place where they were truly meant to be. And that place was PERFECT!! 

I can’t say enough about not only this duet but this entire series. If you haven’t started it, there is no better day that TODAY!! If you have been following all along then grab this phenomenal conclusion that was years in the making. Pour you some wine, 🍷 grab a bar of dark chocolate, 🍫 and a box tissues and get ready for an emotionally beautiful read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Seduction of Pretty Lies Release & Review

He was intense and all-consuming, and I had been in love with him for years.

The Seduction of Pretty Lies, the first book of an all-new intense and angst-filled duet from Holly Renee is available now!

Devoted. Loyal. Shameless. The Boys of Clermont Bay had been my protectors for as long as I could remember.

And Olly Warner took the job to heart.

He was intense and all-consuming, and I had been in love with him for years.

Alarmingly handsome and recklessly charming, he attempted to deny there was ever anything between us.

But we slipped over that invisible line, and the moment we gave in, something fractured.

He was leaving regardless, and I couldn’t hang on tight enough for the both of us.

Olly had always been the boy I could never have, but I couldn’t help losing myself in him.

A searing affair, the guarantee of a broken heart, and the desperation of careless promises.

Olly and I were never meant to be, and we had become nothing more than a pretty lie.

My Review

Oh Holly! What have you done to me?! I have been craving Olly and Frankie’s story since the first book in the Boys of Clermont Bay series. While the other books so far are fabulous, this is just another level of awesome. Olly and Frankie just hit differently. The addictive trope combination of being a friend’s to lovers, plus a forbidden romance tied together with a Best Friends Sister. Ah-may-zing!! 

Olly has been best friends with Beck, Frankie’s older brother since they were kids. But Olly is also a best friend and protector to Frankie. Especially after she goes through some stuff. Olly is gorgeous, sweet, swoony, a bit dirty, and just everything!! The way he only had eyes for Frankie but wasn’t willing to risk his friendship with Beck, so frustrating and devastating. Frankie is beautiful, strong, sassy, and perfect. She has loved Olly from afar for what feels like forever. She doesn’t want to hurt her brother but she darn sure wants to get her man.

When they are together they just complete each other in a way that no one else could. Thank heavens for stolen moments. When they were around each other with their friends they were legit silently pining and mourning the loss of what they could be, if only they had the freedom to do so. It hurt my heart y’all! 🥺 

Now, I am a firm believer in inevitable love. I just have to hope and believe after all is said and done that they can find a way to make this work. They have this undeniable chemistry, but their connection is rare and pure at heart. It’s so all encompassing that it jumps out and grabs you and is not going to let you go until their story is done being told. Right now though… god I need the next book. I’m a mess. 🥺😭😥😩 

This book put me through the spin cycle. I was obsessed with every word in this book. My heart literally melted, broke, and swooned.  I was kindle throwing kinda frustrated at times. But when I tell you this book is hot!! 🥵🔥 OMG! I’m talking like a fresh batch of Granny’s biscuits and gravy, hot! 🔥🥵 Olly is a total sweetheart to Frankie but he’s also a very very dirty boy. There is not enough Orbit gum to clean up his dirty mouth. I wouldn’t change it either because the stuff his mouth was spewing turned this book into a bonafide “panty chucker” and that means go ahead toss them drawers when you walk in the door, because you for sure won’t be needing them! 💥

“Let me tell you what I would do,” he growled, and I couldn’t look away from him. “I would fuck you until my cum was running down your legs and you could still feel my hand on your throat after I walked away.”

Holly Renee is gonna shred your feelings but she is also a master literary seamstress so I know she can mend my poor heart back by the time The Temptation of Dirty Secrets ( which I need like I need air to breathe) is released. This book is phenomenal, but go in knowing this story is a duet and all conflicts are NOT resolved within this book. I’m gonna make it because I know the next book isn’t too far off and just know it will be worth the wait. It’s a Five Stars with a huge grip on my heart, read! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend this as a series you don’t want to miss.

He was arrogant and conceited, and from the moment I met him, he had made up his mind about me. Dangerously handsome and wickedly cruel, he had no intention of letting me spend my senior year under the radar. The secrets of old money ran deep, and even though I barely knew them, the sins of my family had put a target on my back. He was a hurricane, and I was unprepared for the storm. His touch fatal.

My Review

OMG!! OKAY! I am positively sure this just took the spot as my number one favorite Holly Renee book and now I am on pins and needles for book 2. I need it like I need air, like a fat girl needs cake, like a drifter lost at sea with no horizon in sight. I need to be put out of my misery because I just fell in Insta love, to hate, in lust, back in love then to heartbreak. All that magic in the span of the few hours it took me to devour this fantasticness.

This book was a literary bouquet of all the things I love about reading. I couldn’t contain my butterflies during their first chance meeting. Then Holly went and turned it up and all that enemies to lovers golden goodness started pouring out and shredded my poor heart. 💔Beck and Josie’s story is addictive and woo hoo, GLORY B, it’s not done being told. I am so not ready to let them go. 🤗From page one my fate was sealed and I was OBSESSED with this story. GAH!! I got it bad for my boy Beck.

Holly crafted the most perfectly phenomenal star crossed enemies to lovers tale filled with secrets, lies, and deception at the hands of the wealthy, elite, and entitled youths of this gorgeous seaside town. I have a feeling book one has just barely scratched the surface of all Holly is planning to throw at us and I for one can’t wait! This was unputdownable. Fair warning this book does end on a cliffhanger but it’s so frustratingly good. 

Cr8zysock  Breaks it down for y’all!  

Six ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sinfully dark and Swoony Stars! This book full wealth, power, and privilege, sex, lies and mystery! It has IT ALL! 

🔥🔥🔥🔥Beck and Josie are hotter than the seventh circle of Hades. Hotter than a cast iron skillet straight out of the oven. So really freakin Hot Y’all!

🌪 THAT CLIFFY THOUGH, y’all🌪 I am so wondering what’s going to happen?!
