Review: Anger Banger

 


Title: Anger Banger

Series: Happy Haven 

Author: SM Shade

Release Date: February 23, 2024




The residents of Happy Haven Trailer park have been waiting for this for a long time. The slumlord who abandoned this place and let our homes deteriorate has been court ordered to live here while making repairs. Imagine our surprise when the guy who shows up to move in to the dilapidated trailer across the street isn't the sixty year old man we expected, but his son. 

With a teasing smile and unshakeable positive attitude, Cooper Addington Junior pushes every one of my buttons. It doesn't help that he also looks like he stepped off a fitness magazine cover. The women who live here are all over him, but for some reason he's focused on me. 

Too bad I see through his good guy act and I'm not falling for some spoiled rich boy. What I am going to do is keep my eye on him and make sure he's doing his job. I'm the one who took his father to court in the first place and he can't put anything over on me. 


Book Two in the Happy Haven Series of connected standalone novels. Can be read as a standalone.

Goodreads | Purchase



Get ready to head on back to Happy Haven trailer park in this new grumpy/sunshine enemies to lovers rom-com! 

Maren took the slumlord millionaire owner to court over the trailer park her and her family and friends reside in. He let the place go with no desire to fix it, just pocketing their money. Imagine her surprise when it wasn't the sixty year old owner who rolled up to face his sentence of residing in the trailer park but someone else entirely, his son. But Cooper's trading smile isn't enough to break down Maren's walls. But when he offers her a job paying triple her previous job, and it helps to keep him in line, how could she refuse? Doesn't mean she has to like him though, but that doesn't mean she couldn't have a little fun while he was around temporarily. 

I love SM Shade's romcoms & this one was no different! Enemies to lovers is one of my favorite tropes & this also includes grumpy h & sunshine H plus a work place romance? It was light, fun, & everything I needed. If you love spicy romcoms with witty banter then you will enjoy Anger Banger by SM Shade.

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...
