Review: Burn the Dark

Title: Burn the Dark
Series: Elwood Legacy trilogy
Author: Nicola Rose


Blurb:

What if the good guy you fell for turns bad, and the bad guy swoops in to save the day?
Zac said he’d never run, but we do… and it doesn’t help. When the Bael take me prisoner, he’s forced to make the decision he’s been running from for decades. Forever changed, he’s ripped away from me — leaving the perfect sized hole for Alex to step into.
I should hate him.
I do hate him.
If only I didn't need him.
Struggling to come to terms with our own changes, Alex and I must work together to fix this mess caused by ancient legacy and a vampire leader hell-bent on using us for his own gain.
But the vampires aren’t the only ones with something dark running through their veins… maybe underestimating me was the biggest mistake they all made.

Follow one woman’s dark and messy journey as she’s torn between brothers, morality, and the desire to be free. From slow burn paranormal romance to vampires bringing humanity to its knees – this is one thrilling ride you don’t want to miss!

Review:

*This is book 2 in the Legacy trilogy and Taste the Dark book 1 must be read first.

When Jess is taken by the Bael, it forces Zac to finally go through with the Elwood Legacy for himself and his brother. Doing so frees the beast that he tried to keep locked up all his years. A beast that wants Jess's blood more than ever. And the only one left to protect her, is Alex, Zac's twin brother. Jess should hate him, but she needs him. And they need to work together to stop the Bael and save Zac. But the vampires aren't the only ones with something dark running through their veins. Will Jess be able to tap into her powers, to save Zac and Alex, and humanity as we know it, or will she doom them all?


I am still so enraptured with these books. There is a slow burn romance, hot vampires, powerful witches, a love triangle and the end of humanity hanging in the balance. I love seeing the characters in a new light- and from a different perspective. I loved watching these characters grow and the battle that they faced. And I loved learning more about Alex since he was def a favorite in the first book. This book had action, suspense, danger, the sizzle of slow burning romance, and power. If you are looking for paranormal romances then I def recommend the Elwood Legacy trilogy! I cannot wait to find out what happens next to Jess, Alex, and Zac and the rest of the characters in the final installment. 4⭐ out of 5⭐

Reread: Broken Bonds

  Title: Broken Bonds  Series: Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: June 2021 After the death of my mother and her Bonded, I was relieved to find my own Bonds. I was sure everything would be okay if I had them. It wasn’t. The fate of our people is in my hands and I know we’re better off if I’m alone. After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure. North, Nox, Gryphon, Atlas, and Gabe may never forgive me but one thing is for sure. I won’t ever forgive myself. *Broken Bonds is a full length reverse harem PNR novel with material that may be difficult for some readers. This book will end on a cliffhanger. It's recommended for 18+ due to language and sexual situations. Goodreads | Amazon   So I am rereading the Bonds that Tie series to read the newest release Broken Ties. You can find my  Original Review Here . This is a romantasy why choose romance full o...

Review: Bad Little Bride

  Title: Bad Little Bride Series: Girls of Greyson Author: Meagan Brandy Release Date: January 7, 2025 Degradation of the Desperate Daughter. That could be the theme song to my life.  Always second choice. Second best. Second born. Maybe that’s what possessed me to track down my father’s most formidable enemy, the infamous Enzo Fikile. He’s the nation’s most eligible bachelor, and the crime world I was born into’s biggest threat, but not because he wants to tear it down. No. This man wants to claim his place within it and if the whispers working their way around are anything to go by, he’s well on his way. And I just offered him a golden ticket, one he accepted with an unexpected spark in his eye. We signed our marriage contract that night, and the deal with the devil was done. I’m engaged to the man the rest of the world fears and there’s no going back. I expect to be tossed in a tower and left there, but my future husband has other plans. Dangerous ones. He wants the world t...
