Eulogy (Eagle Elite, #9)Eulogy by Rachel Van Dyken
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Blood in. No out.
It has taken me a while to write this review... This story was so fabulous that I don't think any review can do it justice...
I do not want to give any spoilers on the story, but this is one of the best books (possibly the best one) in this series. Be warned though, it's probably the darkest yet... Chase just underwent a 180 transformation - morphing from this funny, optimistic, happy go lucky guy to this really really messed up guy and remorseless killing machine... His end goal is to completely wipe off a certain mafia family and nothing can stop him. He denigrates everybody, even his friends, and they are at a loss on how to stop him. This book is aptly named Eulogy because for a good portion of the book, I was really wondering how things were going to turn out. Chase is just devastated. He feels isolated and so so angry, so he lashes out at everybody - innocent or not, family or not...
Lucianna, on the other end, was the complete opposite of Chase and Mil. She was just an innocent girl, thrust into a situation and a world she didn't really know existed. She had an amazing inner strength and I just fell in love with her determination to save Chase from himself... She was his match in more ways that one, and one of the strongest heroines of this series - she was willing to sacrifice herself to save him and his sanity and it was simply beautiful...
I laughed and I cried while reading their story. They are my new favorite couple.
I highly highly recommend this book!! It was really an experience and totally worth the sleepless Superbowl night I spent reading it.
Well done, Rachel Van Dyken... This makes my top 5 reads of EVER.

**I received an ARC copy for review.** I would have bought this book regardless, but this was late a late Christmas present :-)

“There was him, Tanner Ayers, the White Prince of the Ku Klux Klan. And me, Adelita Quintana, Princesa of the Quintana Cartel. I hated him.

But there is something between them that neither can explain or deny. Hate turns to desire, desire turns to love, and for the first time Tanner sees how wrong his whole life has been.

Crux Untamed by Tillie Cole My rating: 5 of 5 stars This book was amazing!!! I just can't describe how much I loved it. I just fell in love with Hush, Cowboy and Sia! Please don't let the MFM/ménage category stop you from reading this masterpiece. This is one of my top reads of the year! It was so hard publishing this review , as I had to put my heart and emotions back together first!! 😊 Sia is Ky’s sister and has been mentioned in previous books (HH#2), but her story and the reason for which she isolated herself from the world and remains hidden was always a mystery... Hush and Cowboy, the Hades Hangmen’s notorious and inseparable Cajuns, do everything together and share everything with each other, including their women... Cowboy is the happy go lucky one, and Hush is the brooding, mixed race Cajun with secrets that will make you weep... I won’t go into too much details as to not spoil the series, but Hush’s story as well as Sia’s are horrific and their respective past

Collision Point by Lora Leigh My rating: 5 of 5 stars This book is the first thing in the series but a spin off from the Elite Ops series by the same author. A lot of characters reappear from this series so it definitely helps to be familiar with it. I wasn’t, so it took a little more concentration to get into the new universe the author created. This a a fascinating romance/erotica book. There are definitely a lot of “sexy times” between Amara and Riordan Malone and their chemistry is off the chart. After all, they are soulmates. The book starts with Amara being abducted and rescued by Riordan, her lover, only to find out that she forgot about him altogether later and doesn’t remember any of their time together. The plot was action filled and kept me at the edge of my seat. Also, the soulmate concept in that book is very interesting: “...the vow all Malone men give when they find their way to that one true love. The in whose soul will cling to theirs.” I’d highly recommend this boo
