Summary:
Men like us, we see things.
We do things, things that make us unfeeling.
That’s the price of power and money, of living la belle vie and running the French mafia. Then she came along like a pretty wildflower pushing through the cracks on a dirty pavement—fragile yet resilient, a breath of beauty among the filth. She was supposed to be just another job, a nameless person I was to pluck from her life and hand to my brother, nothing but a pawn in the gamble of our diamond business.
There’s a psychological label for men like us.
We lack empathy and guilt.
We do things to have what we want, things that make flowers wilt.
(Diamonds in the Dust is Book 1 of the Diamonds are Forever Trilogy. Book 2, Diamonds in the Rough, will be released in July 2020, and Book 3, Diamonds are Forever, in September 2020.)

Title: Prison Princess (Paranormal Prison Collection)
Author: CoraLee June & Rebecca Royce
Genre: Paranormal Romance
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
More stories from the Paranormal Prison; this time, a tale from Coralee June and Rebecca Royce about the Prison Princess and an assassin with heart.
Raised as an assassin, looking for an opportunity to make some coin, Cypress is more than willing to breach the walls of the Nightmare Penitentiary to free the long lost druid princess. If only the act could be as neatly done as the summary suggests. Because Layne is not what he expects, and juggling a naive, babe-in-a-new-world who is in awe of nearly everything from grass to gowns is a bit out of his job description of a cold-blooded killer.

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: 14 April 2020
Summary:
You’d think five years would be enough time to cope and move on.
It’s not.
If anything, it’s given me more unrealistic ways to deal with my loss.
More pain.
And even worse, a woman I don’t love.
A woman that isn’t her.
I hate her.
She hates me, too.
My life’s a mess.
My heart’s nonexistent.
My soul was lost long ago.
Worst of all, I no longer have any fucks to give.
They say you find your true love after you lose your first one.
I call bullshit.
Title: Rebellion (The Sainthood – Boys of Lowell High #2)
Author: Siobhan Davis
Genre: A Dark High School Romance
Release Date: 10 April 2020
Summary:
“Siobhan hits every button – steam, intrigue, in-depth plots, and STEAM!” S.E. Hall, New York Times bestselling author
Rebellion, the highly-anticipated second installment in the all-new dark, reverse harem series The Sainthood- Boys of Lowell High from USA Today bestselling author Siobhan Davis, is available now!
Everything changed the night he betrayed me, and now, the game has entered a new level.
Galen did me a favor, reminding me the only person I can count on is myself, and I’m more determined than ever to avenge my father’s death and avoid the destiny Sinner has mapped out for me.
Saint is used to calling the shots, but there are new rules, my rules, and if he wants me in his life, and in his bed, he’ll toe the line. They all will, because I can’t pull this off alone, and they owe me. I’ll enjoy making Galen grovel, seducing Caz, frustrating Saint, and keeping Theo at arm’s length, because they deserve it for failing me.

I’m playing a dangerous game, especially where my heart is concerned, but there’s no turning back. I haven’t come this far to walk away empty-handed, and the more secrets we uncover, the more we realize how far-reaching the betrayal and corruption extend, and there’s no choice anymore.The Sainthood must be taken down, and we’re the only ones who can do it.

Title: Bachelor Boss (Bachelor Club #2)
Author: Sara Ney
Genre: Contemporary Romance
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Office romance, they are hit and miss for me because I’ve never been part of the corporate culture. Office love is like a billionaire romance or Chicago pizza; I often miss the nuance. That said, I’m perfectly capable of appreciating a finely crafted man.
Phillip McGuire is hilarious and adorable; a total book boyfriend babe in need of his ‘The One.’ What he encounters is a snickering virago who just watched him do a duet chunder in the nearest company wastebasket with the co-worker that is a right PITA about his comings and going.
One of my favorite things about Sara Ney is she is a marvel with push and pull. She writes it like she was born with the gene–if there is a gene for it. Cecelia and Matthew in He Kissed Me First blew me away when the book came out, and I was a Ney-crack addict waiting for her next book to come out after reading it.

Summary:
Two months have passed since the day I pushed Hayden away. Two months since I found out he loved me and wanted to be with me. I’ve been trying to move on and forget about him, but my heart refuses to listen.
Hayden had almost died saving me. Half of me wants to forgive him for everything and give him another chance. The other half prevents me from doing so, distrusting him and ignoring my heart’s desires. Hayden is dark and complicated, and as the days pass, he gets further away from me, ignoring me whenever our paths cross.
I have less than a year before I go to college, and I won’t see him ever again. I have to believe I will get over him and move on with my life. I have to believe in my future without him.
Unless he didn’t really move on, and our masks are about to fall.
