Kitty Thomas – Pleasure House Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

Queen of super-dark reads (and I mean these can get DARK!!), and a new book in this series just went LIVE!!! 😀 P.S. This is the author of my beloved dark-favorite “Comfort Food” (although it’s not part of this series).

Anna: I read Guilty Pleasures by Kitty Thomas about a year ago. I remember it wasn’t quite as dark as I’d expected, but there were definitely some interesting twists and turns. It is one of those books that I still remember a lot about even a year later, and for someone like me who reads a million books and has a shifty memory that is probably saying something 🙂 read more

Book Review – War by Laura Thalassa

War (The Four Horsemen Book 2)

How could I possibly resist a cover like this? And that blurb CINCHED it for me. Reminiscent of one of my original favorites (The Golden Dynasty) – at least by way of Barbarian Warlord making a claim on her – and her not wanting anything to do with him), and I knew it was just what I’ve been looking for!

Maryse: OMG THIS WARRIOR KILLER JUST CALLED HER HIS WIFE AND TAKES HER… eeeeeeep!!! 😲😬 TOTAL BLURB JOLT!! It gave me a KA “Golden Dynasty” feel. 😀 I think I’m going to start it right now. I’m SO in the mood for the whole warrior MINE thing and that cover. *oooooomph* read more

By 6 Comments

Lori is looking for a book!! She refers to it as down and dirty, and one of the scenes she describes is exactly that. GASP!!! I’m wondering if it’s a Bink Cummings biker book, ’cause I hear those are raunchy and raw.

She asks:

Hi Maryse,

Love your blog! I need help finding a book title.

It’s about a woman, I think her name is princess, whose father was a biker mc President that was killed and she’s out for revenge.

She and her friend seek out a mercenary biker she believes to be responsible. She finds him in a dive bar and proceeds to seduce him by any means necessary. And I do mean any! read more

Reader Question – The book about a girl that escaped her family’s murder & found a reclusive man in the woods…

By 3 Comments

Yoly is looking for a book! Sounds scary, and dark, and I’m dying to know which it could be. Also, could have that forbidden-edge to it? Hrmmm….

She asks:

Hello,

I’m looking for a book, for the life of me I can’t seem to find it. I was strolling through my Goodreads community and came across a book that I remember going something like this:

A girl who’s family was murdered while she was in the house and she managed to escape. She ran through the woods and came across a home of a man who’s a recluse (and I believe a friend of her father or knows him). read more
