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.

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.

Review: Broken Ties

  Title: Broken Ties  Series: The Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: November 2025 From J. Bree, bestselling author of The Bonds That Tie comes the highly anticipated POV book that everyone has been crying out for. Even the strongest ties can be broken. 
After five years of searching, we thought nothing could compare to the devastation of our missing Bond. We were wrong. After a chance encounter, she’s been found; alive and enraged at being dragged back to the men she ran from. Made for us all, she's supposed to be the center of our world, but bringing our Bond home wasn't everything we imagined. With bravado that defies reason and lies that never taste right, nothing about our Bond’s story adds up. The Gifted community is in crisis, deception at every turn, and it’s getting harder by the minute not to show them all what we’re truly capable of. With our enemies closing in, one thing is for sure. 
 We won’t let her get away from us again. * Broken Bond is a full-...
