Review: Shattered Dreams

 


Title: Shattered Dreams

Series: Boys of Bellerose 

Authors: Tate James & Jaymin Eve

Release Date: March 2023




You know that saying, things can’t possibly get worse? They always can. 


I thought things were bad when we got attacked in the dark of the night. In a farmhouse in the middle of nowhere, with no one to help. When we lost one of the Bellerose family. 


But the world wasn’t done shitting on us just yet. 


Our situation only went from bad to worse as we tried to save ourselves, resulting in an explosion of heartbreak. Now we have to deal with the agonizing fallout of that fire-filled night. 


Angelo Ricci--the man I severely underestimated--saved us all, but at what cost? He doesn't deserve to die for me. Not after all I’d put him through. 


There’s no opportunity for grief, because the puppeteer pulling Bellerose’s strings wants the band back on tour with a brand new bass player. Like Flo never even existed.


Bellerose has been through so much already, and with gossip sites reporting on every damn breath, it’s impossible to keep our romances under wraps. Like we all needed fuel on the flames of already burning jealousy.


We need to come together, to grow stronger as a band, but with my heart so divided I’ll need some intense therapy to heal myself before I can heal all of them. Which I know I can do. I have to have hope. Because they’re the Boys of Bellerose.


Shattered Dreams is book THREE of FOUR in the Boys of Bellerose series. This is a mafia/rockstar reverse harem romance series with dark elements and gripping cliffhangers throughout. Content is intended for a mature audience.




Billie is trying to heal from past trauma and get on good standing with each of her men. 

But can she forgive some of them for what they did? 

And will the betrayal of a friend, be the death of Bellerose? 

So I love a broken hero, one with baggage. And I finally started getting answers into some of their past lives. Finally. I have been dying to know more about them since the beginning. Along with that, we got almost a complete picture on what happened to Billie too. 

But of course none of them could be happy for long- their past, their trauma, and their baggage isn't the only thing haunting them. They're being hunted, and still have no idea by who. 

I am still fully immersed into this story, still in love with these characters and can't wait to read the conclusion of the Bellerose series. 

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.
