Where The Wolf Prays

Nyra Ashvale

They say the woods belong to beasts.They say girls who walk too far never come back.But Raveena has never been afraid of old stories. By day, she is the perfect daughter—obedient, pious, promised.By night, she gathers what only grows under the moon. And in the silence between her prayers, something begins to answer.Something ancient. Something hungry. Now, the village prays louder.Blood stains the altar steps.And Raveena begins to dream of teeth, of fire, of a voice that calls her witch like it’s a blessing. What lives in the woods is not human.What lives in her is not asleep. When desire begins to taste like sin, and sin begins to feel like truth, Raveena must choose what burns—and what rises from the ashes. Not all monsters come to feed. Some come to worship.

Mariposa

Lexie Axelson

I made it into the special forces course, but there are three problems. Problem number one? One of my instructors is the infamous Special Operator Beast—a man everyone fears due to his cold heart and polished career. He loathes being away from his team, which makes graduating nearly impossible for all of us, mainly his least favorite student, me. Problem number two? My heart skips a beat whenever I look into his cruel eyes, and my blood heats whenever he’s near me. He’s tall, scarred, and a devastatingly irresistible man who never smiles. Oh, and problem number three? He’s my ex-boyfriend’s dad. We try to stay out of each other’s way to make our reckless attraction fade, but fate keeps bringing us together. The military calls me The Unbreakable Soldier, but falling for Kade O’Connell might be my undoing. Mariposa is a standalone dark military romance set in the Scarred Executioners world.

For Better or Hearse

Ava Hunter

A sexy enemies-to-lovers, grumpy/grumpy romance from Amazon top 50 bestselling author Ava Hunter Ash Keller prefers to keep her heart colder than the morgue. Having sworn off love after a disastrous breakup, she’s learned to thrive in her new career as a death doula. When her millionaire client, Augustus Fox, asks her to accompany him on an all-expenses paid trip to mend family ties and fulfill last wishes, she agrees. There’s just one nail in her coffin. Nathaniel Whitford—her client’s absurdly gorgeous, grumpy doctor of a grandson—is along for the trip. A man who has hated her guts since she crashed his wedding years ago. It’ll be a miracle if she survives this vacation without being tossed into a volcano. Still, Ash refuses to let Nathaniel’s smug smirk and rippling pectorals take her focus away from her death doula-ing duties. She can survive two weeks in paradise with his offensively handsome face. But when falling coconuts and family drama threaten to derail the vacation, Ash and Nathaniel strike a deal: Bury their animosity and make the vacation perfect for Augustus. Soon, a tentative bond—and mutual attraction—forms between the unlikely pair. With every tropical misadventure and steamy late-night hookup, Ash realizes there’s more to Nathaniel than his barbed banter and uptight façade. Suddenly love seems more complicated than death. And as the trip comes to an end, Ash must decide whether she’ll keep her heart six feet under or risk it all…for better or hearse.

Being 23, life and books 🪩🥂🥳

It is officially 5th August for me and it is my birthday 🥂🥳✨

I just came to the age i dreamed about for years. For some people, this is 18, 21. And 23 is for me! 🤧

How did being 23 treat you? What is the age you dream about? For me, this is my last year of my uni. I kinda feel nervous, excited to see where my journey will go 🙂‍↕️ I sometimes feel late to everything, my peers younger than me by years. I have long education life ahead of me still (master + phd) So yes, i am kinda nerved about all of these, still trying to figure out life. But it is okay, i will set everything right, we have time 😌

Were you like me?

I genuinely wonder about the book i should read, experiences i should have at 23, what did you read/do at 23? I appreciate if you drop by and comment the book/thing i cant miss at 23! :) happy long lives everyone! 🤍🥂

Well fuck, you got me on that author's note 😭

It's a "see you later" moment for many of us, and honestly despite having a range of experiences and thoughts on the Rebel Blue Ranch books, this note truly made me reminiscent all. It had me going through all my notes and smiling at myself through the memories 🥹

Wild and Wrangled

Lyla Sage

She’s the one that got away. He’s the one that never let her go. From the bestselling author of Done and Dusted and Swift and Saddled, the next book in the Rebel Blue Ranch series, a small town romance in which past lovers get a second chance to rediscover what they lost. Camille Ashwood had always loved a plan. Her latest was her best yet. She was going to get married so she could secure her daughter’s future, get her overbearing parents off her back, and finally start building her own life in small town Meadowlark, Wyoming. Easy, right? But when her groom doesn’t show up to the wedding, Cam’s life is turned upside down—she doesn’t even have a place to live. That is, until she finds out the house she’s loved since high school is available to rent. There’s only one problem: the neighbor. Dusty Tucker has spent nearly all of his adult life running. Running from what, though? More like who: Cam Ashwood. But ever since he returned home last year, the girl who was his first, well, everything has become a woman seemingly determined to keep him at arm’s length. And he was okay with that—at least, that’s what he kept telling himself. She was getting married, after all. But now she’s single and living next door. Dusty wants to show her that they can be friends, and that he can stay put. Despite her best attempts to stay far away from Dusty Tucker, Cam realizes that being close to him is like slipping on her favorite jeans. Easy. Comfortable. That is until past wounds start to open and feelings—both old and new—wreak havoc. Nearly ten years after they first met, Dusty and Cam begin to wonder if their first love can also be their last. And this time, will it be forever?

How good was that book to pick up that hobby?

I'll go first 🧚‍♀️✨️

I began to realize in my late teens that the quiet & peaceful life was for me. It sparked my love for nature and getting lost in hikes, sights, and preserved lands all around me. I just loved sprawling fields as far as the eyes could see, dreaming one day to call a small town home.

Hence, country romance genre 🤠 sure sure, the cowboy is a bonus ig BUT I fell more in love with way of life of it. It reminded me how much I loved horses as a kid and am looking to book lessons, I picked up line dancing, and had the dream of a lifetime visiting the tetons & the inspirational setting for these books (I am plotting my return back to the tetons soon♡)

I think these lil things have definitely been a positive impact, especially when I've been missing those cool nights under the Midwest stars and untouched lands. Has there been a book where a hobby related to it in any capacity made your curious to pick it up? Or !! What are some hobbies that you find keep you immerse in what you're reading?
