Happy (early) Gwynriel Week! 💙✨

Here’s a little something for the Azzie girlies... and, of course, my fellow Gwynriel girlies.

I had this headcanon stuck in my head of Az returning after an absolutely terrible and unforeseen circumstance that caught him completely off guard while he was away. The entire time, all he could think about was getting back to Gwyn, pushing himself as hard and as fast as he could just to make it home to her.

I can’t thank @cordedcart enough for bringing this idea to life so perfectly. You somehow captured exactly what I was imagining, and I’m completely obsessed. 🥹💙

I hope you all love this piece as much as I do. Happy early Gwynriel Week! 🦇🩵

What’s your fave Azriel and Gwyn headcanon, maybe I’ll commission it one day. 😉

It’s happening! Venom Sweeter than Honey releases today!!

I must say I seriously love @authorchiaraforestieri ‘s work. If you guys don’t remember, I rated Blood Sweeter than Honey five stars and I’m about 60% through with Venom Sweeter than Honey but I’m loving it! I think more than BSTH.

Now when you go into these books they are HEAVY on the spice and less about the world building. There is a ton of realizations and emotions going on though and butterfly in your stomach worthy quotes!

✨ARC Review✨
Venum Sweeter Than Honey by Chiara Forestieri

Art by @cordedcart and @cryhollow

Thank you to the author for a gifted copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Venom Sweeter Than Honey is book 2 in the Fated to the Cowboy series and is filled with all the emotion, trauma healing, and SPICE! This book is just as amazing as book 1, but with way more profound emotion (in the best of ways). This book contains more character background and the healing and growth they each need to go through. This book contains ALL the chaos (again in the best of ways) and I loved the ride! This is around an 800ish page book, but I was so invested in the story, and I was flying through it so fast it didn’t even seem like it. I love the characters and I have to say that I connected to Azrael the most. He was like one big sad puppy I wanted to comfort (lol). I love the connections to book 1, but I didn’t realize there were other connections from other series, so now I have to go back and read them all! There are some dark themes here so make sure to check your TWs. There are twists and turns, some I was not expecting. I enjoyed the banter and the humor, and there were some parts I was chuckling out loud. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and all the emotion and chaos.

5⭐️

If you love spicy paranormal romance, fated mates, why choose, trauma healing, second chance, emotional depth, found family, kinky spice, hidden identity, unhinged in their 302 MCs, and side quests then this is for you!

"Darling, even when you draw blood, your venom is sweeter than honey."

800+ pages of heartache, spice, enchanting magic, rituals, and so much pure love - this unique romantasy is a must-read for anyone who loves a romance that tracends space, time, and worlds 💫

First of all, a huge thank you to @authorchiaraforestieri for sending me an early copy of her book. BStH was one of my favourite reads of last year, so when I heard there was going to be a sequel, I couldn’t have been more excited 🍯 And if you thought the first book was good, then you’re in for a real treat with this one.

This was an emotional rollercoaster if I’ve ever seen one. WHAT was put in this book? I all but inhaled those 800+ pages - plus, it didn’t even feel that long. I know I’m gonna sound crazy (and maybe a bit greedy), but I genuinely wouldn’t have minded another couple hundred pages 👀

The character arcs were incredible, and the backstories were absolutely necessary to fully understand them. Azrael, Lazarus, Levi and Violette have all been through so much, but Violette’s story was especially touching ❤️‍🩹 Watching her heal from her trauma was beautiful, and she deserves every speck of love that her men give her 🥹 There was so much vulnerability woven throughout these pages, which made me become attached to our characters so quickly.

I genuinely liked all three of Vi’s love interests equally, although at times I found myself favouring one over the others. Each of them brings something unique to their relationship, and together they fit like pieces of a puzzle. Their first spicy scene together couldn’t have been more perfect 🔥 AND the boyfriends are boyfriends… as they should be 💅🏼 Azrael and Levi’s relationship was especially tender and sweet. Watching them go from being rivals who wanted to kill each other to slowly caring for one another felt just right.

By the time I reached the end, I was all but emotionally distraught 😭 It was bittersweet in the best way, and I already can’t wait to see what’s next in this universe.

5 ⭐️ ARC Review (check out my full review on goodreads through the link in my bio)

Happy Pride Month! I’m still not over the sweet and tender moments between Shane and Ilya. I’m not the biggest sport romance girlie, but I really loved their story so much. Everyone has been posting their favorite couples to Honeybee by Olivia Rodrigo, but idk it just reminds me of them. I feel like Ilya would hear it in a store and think of Shane.
