Review: Hades Hangmen Series

Synopsis

It Ain't Me, Babe
Sinning never felt so good…
A fortuitous encounter.
A meeting that should never have happened.


Heart Recaptured
Even salvation can be delivered through the love of the damned…

Beauty can be a curse.

Faith can be a cage.

Only love can set you free.


Souls Unfractured
"For fractured souls are like magnets.
Drawn to collide into an impossible bliss…"


It Ain't Me, Babe is the first book in Hades Hangmen series and it revolves around Mae A.K.A. Salome (runaway girl) and the President of the notorious Hades Hangmen MC - Styx (River). They are both broken on so many levels but at the end I just couldn't think of two better suited characters for each other.

"You will never know, but in the two darkest moments of my life, you have shown up. You say it ain't you who is good and who will keep me safe, but you already have. You have saved my life twice."


Heart Recaptured follows Lilah (Delilah), a girl that is so terrified of the outside world and Ky (Kyler) - VP and the biggest manwhore in the MC. Despite their differences they find in each other what they were looking for their whole life. Watching them grow feelings for each other was the best part of this book.

"He was my very own forbidden fruit, one of which I had to keep far far away."


Souls Unfractured
The love story between Maddie (Magdalene) and my favorite Hangmen - Flame really shattered me. They are both so damaged but that's what drew them together in the first place.
This book will made you fell all the feels. It's really intense and it's far hardest book in series, so you need to prepare yourself with tissues. Believe me!

"I know I'm different. I know I don't see the world like everyone else does. But I want to see your world, Maddie. Even if it's the only one I'll ever understand."


These are the first MC books I've read. Little did I know about these series when I first picked them up but the covers drew me in. Who would have guessed that it would became one of my all time favorites.
It was really hard reading about what happened to those little girls, about their hard life at the Commune. I wasn't able to think straight for days.

I've read few other MC books but nothing could compare to this. It's just different and shows us more than just a love story. It's beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. Hades Hangmen series are full of drama, angst, violence, taboo subjects and shocking revelations. Just how I like it. When it comes to Tillie Cole you'll never end up disappointed. 10..... 10..... 10..... 10 STARS!!! ♥


P.S. Deep Redemption will be out in July and I'm counting down the days. I'm so, so, sooo excited! #TheProphetIsComing

Review: Paper Princess

Synopsis

From strip clubs and truck stops to southern coast mansions and prep schools, one girl tries to stay true to herself.
These Royals will ruin you…
Ella Harper is a survivor—a pragmatic optimist. She’s spent her whole life moving from town to town with her flighty mother, struggling to make ends meet and believing that someday she’ll climb out of the gutter. After her mother’s death, Ella is truly alone.
Until Callum Royal appears, plucking Ella out of poverty and tossing her into his posh mansion among his five sons who all hate her. Each Royal boy is more magnetic than the last, but none as captivating as Reed Royal, the boy who is determined to send her back to the slums she came from.
Reed doesn’t want her. He says she doesn’t belong with the Royals.
He might be right.

Wealth. Excess. Deception. It’s like nothing Ella has ever experienced, and if she’s going to survive her time in the Royal palace, she’ll need to learn to issue her own Royal decrees.


When I first saw this cover I instantly fell in love (I think everyone who follows me on Instagram noticed that :D) . It reminded me of Kiera Cass's Selection series (that's on my TBR list, in case you're interested :D ).


Ella Harper is a survivor.

"My life is mine. I live it. I control it."

It's really rare that I like heroine in books, but Ella is something else. She's really tough and even if she's alone in the world she seems to manage it quite well without anyone's help.


Reed Royal.

"The apple is dangling in front of me, juicy red and delicious, but, like the fairy tale, Reed Royal is the villain disguised as a pretty prince. Taking a bite out of him would be a huge mistake."

Yep, that kind of sums it up. But if you want to know more about our new hottie, you need to read this book. PRONTO!


I loved seeing tension between Ella and Reed. It was so passionate. Their story reminded me of Hessa (After by Anna Todd). It's really intriguing, it's full of twist and turns and you won't be able to put it down.

"You're playing a dangerous game," he rasps out.
"I don't know any other way to play it."



Elle Kennedy and Jen Frederick are an amazing authors and their writing is marvelous. They really have a way with words.

“No one wants to be ruined. We all want to be saved.”

There are so many unanswered questions, so many secrets and so many lies that I can't wait for July to come to get my hands on Broken Prince.
If you haven't read Paper Princess yet, you should really get on that. I highly recommend it. It's definitely one of my favorite reads this year.

P.S. Did I ever mentioned that I hate cliffhangers???? Well I do. I hate them!! These Royals really ruined me.
