Book Review – The Thief (Bad Babygirls, #2) by Zoe Blake

arcreview2

Hello bookish friends!! Today, I have my review for the second book in the Bad Babygirl series by Zoe Blake.  This series is definitely not for the faint of heart and it’s quite on the extreme side, so there are things that bothered me quite a bit. Having said that, I still really enjoyed and had fun with all the books and I think the characters are absolutely intriguing.

The synopsis comes with a warning from the author and I suggest you take that literally. Even though there’s humor and a few lighthearted moments, this book/series is twisted. There are no sweet hugs, swoony kisses, or gentle touches. It’s a daddy dom erotica series, so if that’s not your thing, then you migth want to skip this.

Deliciously Dark and Thrilling

4hearts2 (1)

Actual Rating 4.25 Stars

The second book in Zoe Blake’s Bad Babygirls series, The Thief, is gripping, deliciously dark and even more thrilling than Book 1.

Most of my feelings towards the first book is the same for this one, but I have to admit… this sequel is pretty darn AMAZING! The plot is satisfyingly addictive and enticing. With more tension, danger, anticipation, drama, and action, the story never fails to suprise and thrill. There’s this awesome feeling of anxiousness and never really knowing what would happen next that had me absolutely hooked. Yes, the story is disturbing, but even though I felt uneasy, I still really wanted to know what would happen next. I also think this installment is funnier and I actually laughed a few times. It ends with a bang and another cliffhanger that had me eagerly downloading the finale.

I adored Lyla. She’s independent, sassy, and just so funny. She’s a firecracker and I loved her personality. Roman is just as dominant and controlling as Ethan, but I liked him a bit more. I also really liked Lyla and Roman together and even though I’m still not into the Daddy Dom, I found myself rooting for them. I loved their chemistry, playful bantering, and this time, I actually felt some swoons here and there.

Even though the Daddy Dom is not for me, there is something irresistible about Zoe Blake’s writing, characters, and story development. I think the mystery, suspense, thrills, action, and humor are absolutely amazing in this series. The characters are perfectly flawed and interesting and I really enjoyed getting to know them all. Lyla and Roman are by far my favorites, but maybe that’ll change after I read The Expert, which is about Quinn and Ryder.

If you love dark and twisty romances, then I highly suggest you add this book/series to your TBR!

USA Today Bestselling Author in Dark Romance and Horror
Amazon Top 100 Author

There is something delicious in our desire for the corrupt, our ravenous appetite for the brutal, the profane, the unspeakable. The taboo. I write the type of books that give you a frisson of unease; that will have you questioning your own resolve as I take you on a dark ride of twists, kinks and perversions of both the flesh and mind. Enjoy the blush and tremble as you read each decadent word. XOXO Zoe

Kiss Me Not

Releasing August 27th

Pageflex Persona [document: PRS0000035_00027]

blurb

Let me make this clear right here, right now: I, Halley Dawson, do not care that Preston Wright is kissing other women.

Not a lick. Not at all. Nuh-uh-freakin’-uh.

I do care that he’s doing it six feet away from me behind a gaudy velvet curtain—making him my competition in this year’s kissing contest.

Why do I care, you ask? Because I’ve had an unfortunate crush on the insufferable idiot since I was sixteen years old, but I also know it’s never going to happen.

He’s the Creek Falls bachelor to die for, and I’m the Creek Falls racoon lady who puts peanut butter sandwiches out for them every night.

I’m not going to let him break my four-year-long reign—no matter how many times he breaks the rules and slides the curtain across to do the one thing he’s not allowed to:

Kiss me.

Kiss Me Tonight

Releasing September 24th

KISSMETONIGHT-1

blurb

What do a wrong number text, a burning building, and a quirky florist have in common?

A hunky firefighter with an extra-large…hosepipe.

In hindsight, I never should have opened that text message. The last thing I needed first thing on a Monday was a picture of some stranger’s, um, eggplant, in my inbox.

I also should have replaced the batteries in my fire alarm, because my Friday night did not need to end with my apartment building going up in flames.

But it’s fine. It’s fine. Everything is fine.

I’m only lying in a hospital bed with more split ends than I’ve ever had, almost all my Earthly possessions have turned to ash, and apparently, they don’t serve wine to patients in this place.

But like I said, it’s fine.

Until he walks in.

The guy who saved my life. My hero. Noah Jacobs.

And the universe is amusing itself at my expense, because the dirty photo I woke up to on Monday?

It’s his.

Kiss Me Again

Releasing October 22nd

KISSMEAGAIN

blurb

WANTED: ROOMMATE. Must be tidy, polite, and absolutely not my brother’s hot as sin best friend.

I have no idea why I said yes.

Maybe I’d had one too many wines. Maybe I’d done it accidentally. Maybe I’d been sleep-texting.

One thing I know for sure is this: I absolutely do not want Ethan Hawkins in my apartment, up in my business, taking over my space.

Yet he’s here. Moving his stuff into my spare bedroom. Sending a wave of panty-melting, musky man-scent my way every time he walks past me.

Here’s the thing.

We don’t get along—at all. We never have, and I don’t think we’re going to start now that we’re under one roof.

There’s also that little issue where I’m kinda, sorta, totally in love with him…

Uh-oh.
