Skin

Six months since the zombie plague struck, former librarian Roslyn Stewart has been holed up in a school with eight other survivors. But now the shelves in the school canteen are bare. The stranger at the gate has supplies that will ensure the group’s ongoing survival but at a cost. He wants a woman.

Nick is a man with a plan. He’ll treat Roslyn like a Queen, devoting the rest of his life to protecting and providing for her. In exchange, of course, for sexual favors. It’s the deal of the century given the state of the world. But Roslyn doesn’t see it that way. The first chance she gets she attacks the ex-army man and attempts to escape, forcing Nick to contain her. And so begins his awkward courtship of the woman, with her chained to the bed for security reasons.

Chained like a dog and forced to spend her every waking moment with a creep, albeit a good-looking one, Ros is determined to escape. When circumstances force them to band together against a common enemy their very survival depends on their ability to learn to trust each other. An uneasy partnership develops, but can a relationship with such a difficult beginning ever have a future?

Review by Twinsie Angie

I received this book ARC from the author for a truthful review of the book.

OK sooooooo I love Kylie and her novels. I mean Zombies running around trying to eat you and people are falling in love…..perfection!!! Her books are a total episode of The Walking Dead but well…. really naughty!! 🙂 For those of you that don’t know, Kylie soooo graciously let us raffle off her first book Flesh when our blog first opened in October. So she has been with us since the very beginning and watched us grow. We LOVE you for helping us as much as we have helped you!!! MUAH!!!

Ok so this novel….Oh brother Nick…..well IF you read Flesh (If not ya better cuz its a hawt M/F/M story plus scary zombies are everywhere.) you will remember Nick was cast out of the safe community because they deemed him untrustworthy. So he has been alone, hopeless and basically spying on the pockets of people he has found. WELLLLL he sees Ros and BOOM goes the fly of his pants…..Yup thinking with the lower extremities…..SOOOO our hero decides to BUY her from her “friends”…sigh….really Nick? I mean Flowers and a can of Spam since they are starving might have been a better approach but……Well their “relationship” isn’t so happy. WHAT you are shocked? I mean being chained to the bed with a gag ball doesn’t help you form trust you say?? Well needless to say a bond does form along with some very hot sparks. Holy hell their first “joining” shall I say…what girl wouldn’t want it THAT way *gulps ice cold water* cuz I sure wouldn’t complain. Well Ros freaks and escapes because well…she is a typical hot mess of a women. Confused over why in the heck she did that with a man who BOUGHT her and held her as a hostage. (SMH! Dude he is hot and who wouldn’t have given in at some point?? Must be the dang Stockholm Syndrome she was talking about.) Anywho, when Ros realizes she wants to be with Nick all hell breaks out. She gets chased by a herd of zombies and our hero is there in a flash but their little safe haven is now gone. So out on the run they go into the world to try and find someplace to survive.

Well at this point in the novel is when all shit really starts to happen. Nick and Ros run into some Super Big Douche Bags and things happen……Then they run to the safe community Blackstone where If you remember Nick is kinda hated. So when they find out that Ros was “purchased” he wasn’t very well received AGAIN!! The last pat of the book was action packed no doubt. There was a point when I was reading I yelled “NOOOOO” and was soooo saddened. ….haha you sooo now I am gonna leave you hanging right??!!! Anyway, I loved seeing Allie, Finn and Dan from Book 1. They are working well together and help Nick and Ros. I am excited for where book 3 will go and I have zero clue who the hero will be. I THINK I have a clue about the female but EH who knows!!! All I can say is that this book is amazing and maybe even better then the 1st if possible!!!

Flesh by [Kylie Scott]

Ali has been hiding in an attic since civilization collapsed eight weeks ago.

When the plague hit, her neighbors turned into mindless, hungry, homicidal maniacs.

Daniel has been a loner his entire life. Then the world empties and he realizes that being alone isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Finn is a former cop who is desperate for companionship, and willing to do anything it takes to protect the survivors around him.

When the three cross paths they band together; sparks fly, romance blooms in the wasteland and Ali, Daniel and Finn bend to their very human needs in the ruins of civilization.

Lust, love and trust all come under fire in Flesh as the three battle to survive, hunted through the suburban wastelands.

Review by Twinsie Angie (review from 2012 but reread book in 2026)

I heard about this book from a friend. She knows my love for Zombies and love stories and thought I would enjoy to read it. I figured that I watch The Walking Dead so it would be much like an episode of that.

I started the book and loved how it starts out with a BANG…lots of action and zombies trying to get Ali and Daniel. You can see the mistrust in her because she has seen what happens to civilization and women in general when civilizations falls. Dan is looking for hope and Ali serves as that hope for him. The book does a great job building the trust and love the two feel for each other at a time when trust and love are very far from real. The introduction of Finn comes at a crucial time because there are some not very nice “human” left in the world. The three of them begin to run for their lives when the attraction Ali feels for Finn is revealed. The three of them have to figure out what exactly is the best for all involved.

I loved the book. The zombies are there along with other dangers like bad humans and another deadly infected “thing”. The author did a great job ramping up the sexual chemistry between the 3 character AND making your stomach turn in knots over the zombie infestation. I am going to be telling everyone i know about this book because even if you are not a “fan” of zombies, you will enjoy the main plot of the story…survival and what you will do to make sure the ones you love survive!

Rockers

#review #Rocker – Runaway Rockstar by Kylie Scott

Leave a comment

New York Times bestselling author Kylie Scott returns with a hot new rockstar romance…

Nash Porter is a rockstar who wants out. He’s had enough of nonstop grinding tours and the pressure of success and fame. It’s time for a taste of normalcy. And his retired housekeeper’s home in a charming small town, is the last place anyone would think to look for him.

Having been dumped and evicted by her idiot ex, June Calloway is ready for a change of scenery. When her grandmother suggests June visit, she jumps at the chance. What could be better than quiet time in a quaint picturesque town to restart her life and take her mind off her woes? What she doesn’t anticipate is that a rockstar-in-hiding will be her new roommate—and she’ll have to help keep him away from the media and adoring fans.

Concealing a platinum-selling, award-winning musician’s true identity isn’t going to be easy, but June has some ideas. It starts with a shave and haircut, and ends with June claiming Nash is her very ordinary, not the slightest-bit-famous, ex who has come to woo her back. Surely nothing can go wrong.

Twinsie Angie’s Review

I received this review for an honest review from the author.

I am a huge Kylie fan.  I fell in love with her back in the zombie book days.  LOL  I have read all of her books and found the banter with characters is always on point.  It is the one thing I know I will love and laugh with when reading.

This book is about Nash and June.  Nash is looking to break away from everything when he runs into June.  He knows her through his previous house cleaner. He runs to hide at June’s house who is not having the best of times as she and her boyfriend are broken up.

Nash and June spend time together, and with all the silly June nicknames, drama needed in all romance novels, and the insta-love (which I always love), we have a great story.

The band’s groupies/community members kinda got on my nerves but I am sure they get on rockstar nerves too.

Apocalyptic, forced proximity, Kidnapping

#ForcedProximity #EndOfTheWorld #audio – Wildflowers by Kylie Scott

Leave a comment

Don’t miss this heart pounding apocalyptic romance from New York Times bestselling author Kylie Scott!

There’s only one person Dean Wallace wants to save from the end of the world: sunshine girl from across the street. She’s always smiling. Who knows, maybe she can teach him a thing or two about how to live? But saving her against her will is harder than he expected.

Astrid Hardy doesn’t know what to think when she wakes up in her hot neighbor’s basement. He says he wants to protect her from the deadly virus threatening to collapse society. But that sounds like paranoid conspiracy theory nonsense, and losing her sh*t seems like the correct response.

As they watch the downfall of the world play out online, hear approaching gunshots, and smell smoke from nearby burning buildings, it all starts to seem horribly realistic. With almost everyone they know dead, and law and order gone…how will they navigate this new world together?

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.
I absolutely loved her zombie books so I JUMPED to read this one. Now there aren’t any zombies so if that isn’t your thing you should be good.
Dean and Astrid are quite a pair. LOL Dean kinda…well….yeah he wants to keep the pretty but clueless neighbor safe as the world is coming to an end. SO he does what all rational men do, he kidnaps her. LOL If you read Kylie books you know the banter is amazing and hilarious between them.
As the world is falling apart and Astrid realized Dean isn’t as crazy as she thinks, they begin to travel to find a safe place to hunker down. Dean wants to keep her all to himself, and Astrid is like HELLLLS NO. They find a crew of like-minded people to form a town with while also finding another town of not so great men who feel they own all the women and items around.
I loved seeing Astrid realize her attraction to Dean and him opening to the fact she actually might have a few good ideas. Their adopted kid they find in the town is such a fun character because she is NOT ok with the friends to lovers change between the two.
I cannot wait to get this in audio because I just know it will be 100x better!!

 

UPDATE : I was given this audio book from the author for an honest review.  Oh man was it even better listening to the story with Andi telling it.  I laughed and got cringed with Astrid at times but boy did i SWOON again over Dean.  This book is one I will  relisten to time and time again.

Love can be murder, especially when your ex is a serial killer. Don’t miss this spicy new romantic suspense by New York Times, USA Today, and Audible best-selling author Kylie Scott!

Nothing prepared Sidney Walsh for the social awkwardness of having unknowingly dated an infamous killer. She’s doing her best to move on after her ex got dragged off to jail.

Her personal life might be quiet, what with having few friends and the neighbors wanting nothing to do with her. But at least it’s safe. That is until tattooed chef and all-round thirst trap, Noah, moves in next door.

Now Sidney is being asked on dates for the first time in forever, and feeling a dangerous mix of soul-deep connection and red-hot desire. But the darkest moments of her life come crashing back when her ex decides he has unfinished business…her. Will she and Noah make it out alive, and can their love withstand the nightmare of her past?

The real question is…with almost everyone dead and law and order gone…how will they navigate this new world together?

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review

It’s the end of the world as we know it.  With a deadly virus going around Dean sees not everyone is taking this as seriously as they should including his neighbor, Astrid. He makes it his mission to keep her safe even if it is locking her in a cage in his basement.  Astrid is not amused about this however, when she realizes what he did saved her and it’s just the two of them looking out for each other she go along for the ride.

I have to say I’m not a big fan of the apocalypse thing but this was good. It was a bit slow for me at first but once they were on the run and found other people it became a page turner. Watching them survive and fight for what they had and need had my head on a swivel wondering who or what was coming next. I have to say who wouldn’t love to have a tank in their front yard and a garden in the back. The shopping trips with Astrid was always an adventure. I loved that Astrid kept Dean on his toes especially when she would make her snarky remarks at such bad times causing her to get hurt.

I enjoyed watching Dean and Astrid on this journey of navigating who is a friend who is an enemy. The way the reacted to different things happening around them and getting to know all the friends they meet on the way. Although this started with Dean kidnaping Astrid and I wasn’t sure I would like him he really changed my mind by the end of the book. I loved watching them grow from individuals to a family with the addition of Sophie and their new community. They all learned how to live off the land and fight to keep what they built.

Waking a monster from its sleep is never a good idea.

Skye Carter is as normal as normal can be. But when she chances upon a man in the basement of an abandoned Hollywood Hills house, she’s suddenly playing tour guide, and introducing a fifteen-hundred-year-old vampire to this century. And who even knows what’s going on with her teeth.

The truth is, immortality can get old—which is why Lucas Thorne went to sleep for seventy years. But he’s back and ready to take on undead enemies and friends alike. In a world where threatening creatures roam the night streets, he’s the most dangerous of them all.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

When Kylie said she had a Vampire novel I was excited.  Paranormal is my favorite genre to read.  I do love that Kylie is stretching her writing chops to tackle new subjects and new genres.  I have read every book of hers and will continue to do so.

Skye is a fabulous character who was in the wrong place at the wrong time when she became a meal for a starving just woke up elder vampire.  Poor girl.  She soon is thrown into a world of violence, betrayal, family, and rules???  Crazy right.

I liked Skye and her character.  She was a modern woman who was not to thrilled with Lucas and his old timey ways.  Lucas is a hot mess in this time period.  Things have changed and he needs to roll with the new times.  Henry…he made the book.  I loved every sentence he uttered in the book and every single scene.

SO did I like the book?  Yes-ish.  The banter with Henry was the best.  Its what I love most about Kylie books. Her banter is on point.  What I didn’t love was the constant retelling of information when a new character was introduced to the storyline.  It felt like too much of the same things.  I liked the story line of the new “Board” vs Lucas and his “old ways”.  I also felt like the story was stiff and was almost too slow to get going.  By the last few chapters I felt like it was better with the story and flow.

I would love to see another book since I feel towards the end of the book Kylie got into a good flow with the world and characters.

Love enters the chat in this hilarious, heartfelt rom com by New York Times bestselling and Audie award-winning author Kylie Scott.

Romance author Riley Cooper always dreamed of living by the water. But within a day of landing in the charming seaside town of Port Stewart to work on her latest book, she’s getting calls and texts for some dude on her new number. Weird ones. Sad ones. Sexy ones. Ones that make her want to meet him. For curiosity’s sake…if nothing else.

After years of being on-again, off-again with his high school sweetheart, all Connor wants is to move on with his life. If only everyone in Port Stewart would let him. What he needs is to be seen with someone else. So when fate puts him in the path of the new girl in town who got his old number, faking it together seems like the perfect solution.

Spending time with the gorgeous former prom king might be great research for Riley’s romance writing…if only she can keep her feelings in check. But the more she gets to know him, the harder she’s falling. Can their serendipitous meeting turn into something real and true?

Review by Twinsie Angie

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

When I saw what this book was about plus it was a grumpy sunshine, I was all in.  I must admit I fell in love with the story right away.  I thought it was super funny to be getting random texts from people for another person.  I have had that happen once, not nearly as many times but still I could kinda relate.

Like all Kylie books, the banter, snark, whit, etc was totally hilarious. There were so many times I laughed out loud because it’s totally how I might react to a situation…..like getting high with grandma and her friends at the coffee shop.  Legit full laughter.   Don’t get me start on “Break up oral” because yeah totally what I would have done as well….lol…IYKYK!

I loved the simplicity of the story but the twist about Ava was one that I was so excited to see.  The karaoke was probably one of my favorites in the story.  Seeing the town fall in love with Riley was also another favorite even if they initially were all betting against her at the coffee shop.  Poor Connor seems to find the ladies that everyone loves.

It was a great fake dating turns to real emotion story.  This is one of my favorites that Kylie has releases.  I would love to see more in the series because I think there are a lot of characters who could use an HEA.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review.

I liked the plot of this story and I have to say enjoyed the side characters as much as the main characters. What could go wrong when you get a new cell number? How about the previous owner not telling anyone they changed their number and their family and friends constantly texting you.

Rylie Cooper just wanted to get away and enjoy the water. She gets into town and decides to get a new phone number. Only problem is this number used to belong to Connor who didn’t tell his family and friends he changed his number. Rylie gets texts from Connor’s ex, Ava, who is persistent that Rylie and Connor are together. Connor just wants some breathing room and not have family and friends contacting him. His ex is coming home and his high school reunion is coming up and everyone in the town has an opinion on his love life.

A small town can be a wonderful thing but small towns know everyone’s business and if they don’t know your business they will in 5 seconds.  I loved Connor’s meddling family especially his grandma. I have to say the dueling tip jars were entertaining. I enjoyed seeing Rylie and Connor go from friends to more even if it started as a fake relationship. Some of the scenes were over the top but still entertaining to read. Want to know if the town people switched from team Ava to team Rylie, then pick up this book or even the audio.

#releaseday #NewRelease #Netgalleyarc #DoubleReview – The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck by Kylie Scott

Leave a comment

“Be quiet and listen: He is cheating on you. The name of your soulmate is Alistair George Arthur Lennox. You will be passed over for the promotion. The winning numbers are 5-8-12-24-39-43. And I’m very sorry to tell you this, but you will die next Sunday.”

When Lilah Goodluck saves the life of Good Witch Willow as they’re crossing a busy L.A. street, the last thing she expects is five unwanted predictions as a reward. Who gives someone the winning lotto numbers then tells them they’ve only got a week to live? And who believes in that nonsense anyway?

But when the first three predictions come true within twenty-four hours, Lilah’s disbelief turns to mild panic. She’s further horrified when she nearly runs a car off the road that belongs to Alistair Lennox, who just happens to be the illegitimate son of the British king.

While Alistair is intrigued by her preposterous story, Lilah is adamant about resisting the heat between her and the playboy prince. If she denies he’s her soulmate, then the last prediction can’t come true, right? As the days count down, they become maybe friends…and then maybe more. But between the relentless paparazzi and some disapproving royals, finding time for love isn’t easy, especially when her days may be numbered.

Red White and Royal Blue meets The Last Holiday in this delightfully quirky novel from the New York Times bestselling author of End of Story, about a woman who unexpectedly finds “fall in love with a prince” at the top of her bucket list.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by Netgalley for an honest review.

I have to say I am a reader of all Kylie’s books.  I will be honest when I say some just wrap me up in a happy bubble for days.  While other books are easy to put down and come back to later.  I was really excited for the premise because I have never heard of a story like this.  So I was hoping for the first vs other book.

When the book started, I was all in.  I loved the way Lilah and Willow met and her reaction to what Willow tells her.  I mean I would have freaked out too right??  ANYONE would have.  Because when you get that information, anyone would ignore it but also kindddda wonder.  When things started to go like Willow said, Lilah FREAKED OUT as I would have.  I mean you meet your soulmate like willow said you would.

The story of Lilah and Alistair’s romance was cute but at times I felt like the chemistry was a little lacking. There were spots when I felt the story was rushing which is also why maybe I felt the lack of the love/chemistry.

Overall, I did like the story and would tell a fan of her writing to grab the book.

I received a copy of this book by NetGalley for an honest review.

I was excited to get this book. I so enjoy a good Kylie Scott read.  This was different but I was intrigued by this story.  I like the beginning and how Lilah finds out her fate.  There were great parts to this book and then there were some ok parts.

Willow gives Lilah the information everyone wants to know about their fate when Lilah saves Willow. She doesn’t believe Willows predictions until things start to go the way the Good Witch Willow says. Then Lilah starts to freakout a bit. Lilah almost takes out the one and only Alistair Lennox the same man Good Witch Willow says is Lilah’s soulmate. I have to say the chemistry between Alistair and Lilah is great. Along the way Lilah finds Alistair is a kind loving amazing guy. I enjoyed reading and seeing Lilah complete things on her bucket list and seeing all Alistair does to help.

This was an enjoyable read.  I did find it easy to set down but my curiosity of what would happen next had me picking it back up. If you are a fan of Kylie Scott’s works you should not overlook this one.
