*****Book review*****

>Brothers for Sisters<
While there is a decent amount of repeated items at the beginning of book two, I only hold a teensy grudge. I do like the storylines and how entwined they are in the grand scheme of things. The close bond the brothers share is rivaled by that of the sisters they eventually wed and bed.

It's not Nikki's darkest work, but this is up there, so check those triggers. SA, child abuse, violent ☠️, and more are present.

I love that the narrators differ between books, making it easier to binge. Those delightful narrators are: Gideon Frost, Lexi Evans, Gregory Salinas, and Sarah Puckett.

*****Book review*****

>Order of Operation, Love Edition<

Micah Alexander and Sienna Bardot have an interesting dynamic. She wants nothing to do with him. He wants everything to do with her. It creates some interesting and enticing friction.

-- Book quote
'I don’t really understand men in general, and what little I do know makes me wish I were attracted to womenβ€”it’s a shame I’m not enticed by the female body in that way.'
-- Sienna Bardot

Sienna is essentially a single parent. Her mother is beyond neglectful of her and her younger sister, Ellie, so she's assumed the role of caretaker and protector. I love that she puts Ellie first, especially when Ellie shows her lack of maturity.

Another thing about Sienna is that she holds true to waiting for love and marriage before intimacy. The order may get a little skewed, but I like that she's up front with him.

When it comes to Micah, he's something. LOL! He's completely over-the-top when it comes to Sienna and is the one to fall first. He's ridiculous, but in ways that are more entertaining than anything else. He's mostly likable. πŸ˜‚

The way his family takes to the Bardot women is terrific. The acceptance and lack of judgment make me love them.

Things do get dicey, and triggers are present, so be aware. A lot of it is off page, but not all of it. πŸ–€β˜ οΈ

I listened to the audio book. The narrators, Sarah Puckett and Gideon Frost, are very enjoyable, conveying the expected emotion and being easy to listen to. 🎧🩷🎧

*****Book review*****

>Forbidden Chocolate<

I'm happy to be back to this group of rough, softhearted men.  As this started, I found myself intrigued by how this will all play out as Rhys "Twitch" O'Connor & Milly White cross that invisible line set forth by her brother, Reaper.  Through its ups and downs, I'm happy to report that it is a satisfying adventure.  Very satisfying.  ❀️‍πŸ”₯

-- Book quote 
'Twitch . . . That man does crazy things to my insides. He’s over six feet tall, with thick, wavy hair, piercings, and a sexy, laid-back attitude. The icing on the cake is that he’s smartβ€”he’s the club’s security and IT guru. There’s something incredibly sexy about an intelligent man.'
-- Milly White

There are some darkish moments.  After some of the scenes in earlier books, I'm glad that BLW doesn't try to one up herself.  That said, the darkness here, flashbacks aside, is mainly around mental health concerns.  I like how the different incidents are handled.

There are several things that I love, including but not limited to the chocolate stashes that get plundered, Twitch's special piercing, the found family and love they all have for each other, and the new friendship Milly makes.  This is definitely a story I can revisit.

I think we need McDaddy's story.  I mean, he already has a nickname.  🀭

The peek into what's possibly to come for Rage looks interesting.  I'm looking forward to it.

I listened to the audio book.  The narrators are Ash Beverly and Sarah Puckett.  I like listening to them.  🎧🩷🎧
