Bloody Cruel Monster by Lucy Smoke

Bloody Cruel Monster, (Sick Boys)
Lucy Smoke
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Blurb:
It will end the same way it started … with death. Clover I gave Braxton Smalls everything. I sacrificed myself and all I ended up with was a broken heart and a shattered soul. Now, I’ve got bigger things to worry about than an angry Eastpoint Heir hot on my trail. Brax may be the psycho who kidnapped me–but he’s nothing compared to the organization my brother works for. And me? I’m the monster ready to wreck them all. Braxton I live for vengeance. That's all I know, all I see. Until her. Until Clover La Roux. No … until Evgenia Volkov. Daughter of a Russian mobster. Sister to the man who tortured one of my best friends. The only woman to ever satisfy the cruel desires inside of me. Whoever took her will pay with their lives. And once I have her back, I’ll make sure she can never leave me again. Consequences be damned.

 





Bloody Cruel Monster is the sixth book in the Sick Boys series and the second half of Brax and Clover's story. You don't have to have read the first four books but I highly recommend it b/c they are all amazing. You do absolutely have to have read Bloody Cruel Psycho though. 

So in BCM, we pick up where we left off in BCP. Brax is on a mission to get back what is his. He underestimates our little Clover though. She doesn't need someone to come save her. The only thing she has ever NEEDED was someone to choose her. Brax however, is set on finding and saving her. The only way he can do this, is to turn to someone he never wanted to rely on. Brax has to set his ego and his own personal feelings aside to save the one he loves. 

There are so many things I want to say about this book. So many amazing moments that happened. As always though I don't want to spoil anything. I will say that Lucy, as always, has done an amazing job. These two characters are such a hot mess of dark and twistiness. To be able to make us love them and to bring them together is magic. It's not always about "fixing" someone. Sometimes it's about accepting the darkness within you and knowing that you are still loved. That's what these two do for each other and it's absolutely beautiful. 

Now it's for sure a bloody, twisted, dark ride. The obstacles these characters face are never easy. It was an amazing ride though. I love being inside their heads and learning all the things. Especially Brax. He is by far my favorite Sick Boy. 

Then the ending. Yes this was the conclusion of Brax and Clover's story but that doesn't mean we got an ending to feel warm and fuzzy about. Our dear Lucy wouldn't let us off that easy. She's got us already chomping at the bit for the next book in the series. It's gonna be a hot one for sure!

Taking a Break

  Taking a break Hello! I randomly decided to come on here today and it looks like someone actually does visit this site on occasion. I feel like I owe it to you to let you know that I won't be posting any new reviews for a while. I've been really burnt out on reading for a while now and while I do still read every now and again, I just don't have the same passion about it. When I write a review for the blog, I feel it has to be more in depth and informative and I just don't have that in me right now. Also, the book world just disappoints me sometimes and I don't feel like I'm in the head space to give it my all. Anywho, if you are reading this, thank you for being around and supporting me for however long you've been here. I appreciate you. Maybe one day I will get back into it and start reading and reviewing again. In the meantime, I do still review the books I read on Amazon and Goodreads . 

Merciless Spy by Heather Long

  Merciless Spy, (82 Street Vandals) Heather Long ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon / Goodreads Blurb: The fierce twin. The dark brother. The wild one. I don’t give a damn about labels. I never have. Not when it comes to me. But stay the hell away from my brothers. All of them. I’ve sacrificed a lot for them, and I’m more than willing to give a lot more. If my blood, sweat, tears, and life were needed, I’d give it all up. Every damn drop. For my brothers, there was nothing I wouldn’t lose. Until her. Reckless, ferocious, and seemingly born to match me in temperament and spirit, Hellspawn is not the fragile flower they all think she is. I don’t think she ever has been. She will not be left behind, she will not hide, and she will not take the crap that life has been throwing at her. She’s saved our lives, defended us, fought for us, and sacrificed herself for us. I have no questions about what she would do if they tried to leverage us against her. This is why I won’t allow anyone to put her to t...

Kim Medhurst, ex-British military intelligence officer turned scientist and climate activist, has a vitally important project on her hands. The mysterious object she set out to retrieve from the remote Scottish island has the potential to power the entire planet.

As if that wasn’t concerning enough, Chastain goes missing, spurring Kim and the others into action. The team’s newfound abilities come in handy as they attempt to find their friend and navigate the murky underworld of dirty ...
