Cupid: A Dark Erotic Romance by Kenya Wright and Jade Eby

Cupid is a really hard book for me to rate. It's filled with "I'm going to love this," moments, but it also had its problems. It is written, in part, by author Kenya Wright who I honestly believe is currently one of the most creatively entertaining, out-of-the-box writers that's out there. This author is fearless and her books are always well thought out and  well-written. Of course this doesn't mean that every book that she churns out is a winner, but there is raw talent there.

Blog Tour: Flawed ( The Butcher #1) by Francette Phal






I want to start this book review with what I believe is a very necessary warning to people who read my blog and who may purchase this book based on my review. Flawed is an exceptional story that is above par in writing and character development; however, reader be warned - this is an extremely disturbing and violent book. It is very dark in a way that some may find offensive or even frightening. If you have any problem with reading scenes of rape, extreme violence towards women, killing, or sex trafficking, I want to caution you in advance. I don't classify this as a love story or a romance at all, but it is a very good book. If you can overlook these things then I have to say that I strongly recommend Flawed
.
In this story you have three main players: Lacey, Knox, and Katia. There are other people that are important to the story, but these three are the primary focus of this dark tale.
