In Fury Lies Mischief Review

 

This is such a great book! Amo Jones really knows how to create extreme characters in an even more extreme environments! This book takes place in Midnight Mayhem (Where "Peace lies Havoc") where the characters all started and have bloomed into this amazing world.

Description 

"She was everything that I wanted.
He was everything that I despised.

Until she wasn’t.
Until he wasn’t.

Killian Cornelii was a walking calamity. He reached inside of me and touched every single inch of my ruined soul, but he didn’t just touch it. He caressed, petted, and captivated it. He tailored me to fit into the palm of his hands. The same hands that possess so much cruelty, were the very same that comforted me.
I thought I knew him.
He thought he knew me.
This isn’t a fairy tale, or some achingly beautiful story about two soul mates who instantly fall irrevocably in love with each other.
This is a story about a love so painful, so rich, that it destroys everything and everyone around it.
Including ourselves.

Midnight Mayhem is the platform to which Killian performs his tricks on, but the greatest trick wouldn’t come from him.
It would come from me.

Tricksters don’t have hearts.
They just pretend that they do.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock."

No spoilers here....

I truly cannot get enough of Saskia or Killian. Their attraction is animalistic and pure. Again, there is a mystery that begins to unfold and I had a hard time putting the book down. I had to know everything. Saskia went through some hellish shit but regardless still found love in the end. It is dark, moody, sexy, and the villains are the hero. 

"I've always loved my girls a little fucking damaged, that way when I inflict more pain on them, they'd be used to it....I don't want to feel that way, but I cant help it" -Killian

I cannot get enough of this story, I have read it several times now and it takes me the most intense ride every time. I need and want more. With this story and really all of Amo's writing, its a nice reminder that no matter how fucked up our souls are and how damning our demons might be, that we are all still capable of surving and thriving. Be it with ourselves, family (which it can be the ones we have created), and most importantly with another that we can share this life with.

About the Author

Amo Jones is a USA Today & Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author, totally winging this author thing (she's probably doing it all wrong). She likes cake, loves wine, and her religion is magic (Slytherin). She's a profound work-a-holic, but when she's not writing, you can find her chilling with her kids & Husband at the nearest beach, with a cocktail in her hand. New Zealand is not a state of Australia and rugby is the best sport ever played.

Absolution Review

Image
  So, I like twisted tales and dark romance but this one definitely took it to a whole new level. This book comes with warnings, allowing the reader to understand what they are getting themselves into. This is not a BDSM "love" story.  No spoilers... I would like to say that it is in fact a story of two people who some might say are messed up but they are perfect together and for each other. So in a way it is a love story, but it has some dark scenes. As the authors put it, "[..] you will be thrown into the mind of a psychopath". This story comes from the perspective of both Evie and Ezra. Evie has had a rough start to say the least, being brought up in a religion that makes you think the female form is a sin.  Ezra was brought up to believe that most women are whores and he runs a club. Both of these characters are brutally meant for each other. Absolution Description Evie All sins are equal in the eyes of God, but I'm not God. One sinner made me hi...

Manik Review

Image
What can I say... I am truly obsessed with Amo Jones and all that she creates. The woman has me hooked not just on her words but the characters she creates and she knocked it out of the park with this stand alone.  As always... no spoilers here You want love, self discovery, mystery, mafia... Oh yea and really good sex? This checks all of those boxes.  This story starts off by giving the reader a tad of a preview of what is to come via a prologue, which not going to lie, I had totally forgot about it, until the book was almost finished.... Like, how am I not paying attention to a story that I am adoring?!.... The story follows Beat, who has a bit of a past (but don't we all?) Then there is Manik... a rapper/Mafioso for the Russians.. A kidnapping... A love story     Description I’m Beatrice Kennedy, but everyone calls me Beat. I live a low-key life, fresh out of college and drifting from town to town until I find my home. I love music, and how it stirs even the ...
