“I’ve spent three decades perfecting failure. But I never expected my next ‘fail’ to be a dragon-sized death sentence.”   

Attention Romantasy Fans: A Bond of Fire & Fury by Brenda Trim is now live!
https://geni.us/FireandFury

At thirty-two, I’m too old for this. The dragon that chose me has already killed three riders. And my instructor knows exactly what I am—he’s just not telling me.

I’ve spent three decades perfecting failure. College dropout. Fired barista. Retail disaster. Freelance photographer who couldn’t book a gig. When a military recruiter offers me a spot at Thornwick Academy, I’m desperate enough to ignore every red flag.

I expect boot camp. I get creatures that shouldn’t exist.

Thornwick isn’t a military academy—it’s a hunting ground for an ancient war, where legacy families bond with Sovereigns or die trying. These cadets have trained since childhood. They know the protocols, the bloodline politics, the secret history of this place. I learned magic existed seventy-two hours ago.

Then Obsidian chooses me.

A black dragon. A mountain-shaking force that killed his last three potential riders. Ancient, volatile, and now mine. The academy gives me two weeks before I’m added to his body count.

But my flight instructor? He’s already decided I’ll survive.

Captain Kael Blackwater is devastating and dangerous, pushing me past every limit while watching me like I’m a bomb he’s trying to defuse. He trains me like my life depends on it—because it does. What I don’t understand is why.

Why does he look at me like he knows something I don’t?

Why are black dragon riders being systematically murdered, their deaths staged as training accidents?

Why are pale creatures with needle-sharp teeth suddenly hunting bonded dragons, draining their blood, leaving corpses that all lead back to me?

Kael has answers. About black dragons. About a royal bloodline supposedly exterminated centuries ago. About what I am and why Obsidian chose a thirty-two-year-old foster kid with no magic, no family, no right to be here.

He’s keeping me alive by keeping me in the dark.

And I’m falling for him anyway—for the man who’s either my protector or my handler, who teaches me to fly while hiding the truth about why things with teeth are hunting me, who might have orders to eliminate me the second I become too dangerous.

The Bonding Ceremony was supposed to be the hard part. No one warned me that the real test is surviving what I’m becoming.

Welcome to Thornwick Academy, where:

🐉Dragons choose riders (or kill them)

🤫Instructors keep deadly secrets about your bloodline

☠️Something is hunting bonded Sovereigns and draining them dry

❤️‍🔥The man training you might be the one ordered to end you

🎯Being chosen isn’t an honor—it’s a target on your back

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐4 out of 5

I’m not usually one to read romantasy stories, however, this book caught my eye and I’m glad it did. I really enjoyed the story, imagination of the author writing it and the characters.

The characters are well written and well developed. I loved Mara and her strength, her determination, and the kindness in her. She had a hard life, but she didn’t let it sour her or make her a mean person, she just decided to make her life what she could and do her best to be a kind human.

Her story was interesting to read and I am looking forward to the next book in this series. I hope her life continues to improve and her strength continues to grow and develop into the person she’s meant to be.

Trouble had found its way to our doorstep, and it hadn’t come alone.

And now, things were shifting under our feet.

Every move mattered.

Any mistake was a hit we couldn’t afford.

And through the lies, the blood, and the betrayal, there was her.

She was part of my past I couldn’t bury.

I never expected to see her again, but there she was.

Beautiful as ever and a pull I couldn’t shake

It was time to face the truth.

Love doesn’t play fair.

Blood doesn’t always mean family.

And the choices we make aren’t always the right ones.

I’m Goose.

This is my story.

And if you think you know how this ends… trust me. You don’t.

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 out of 5

Another great story in the Satan’s Fury MC series. It has family drama, betrayal, secrets, and a found family that is always at your back.

This book was a page turner with a story that kept my interest from the very beginning. Goose and Presley have known each other since high school, but have never been friends. When Presley’s younger sister finds herself in trouble again, Presley is there to rescue her and keep her safe, but the sacrifice she has to make could be too large of a price.

I love the Satan’s Fury MC series and Goose is a great story that pulled me in from the beginning right through to the end. It was a hard read to put down and I can’t wait for more in the series.

☞ Blaze of Retribution (Royal Harlots MC Atlanta GA Chapter) by Thetta James has released!

Chanel/Blaze
I never planned on showing up at the Royal Harlots’ front gate. Especially not after the way things ended between me and my mom.
The last thing I said to her was, “I hate you.”
Her last words were, “I love you.” Then she rode off and never came back.
Vivian Rivers didn’t die in some tragic accident. She was executed. Silenced for reasons no one’s willing to say out loud. The person who took her from me didn’t just kill my mother… they took out the president of the Royal Harlots.
Now I’m standing at the gates of her legacy with ice in my veins and vengeance burning in my gut. The Harlots know who I am. I’m not just Vivi’s daughter, I’m the storm she raised in secret, and I’m here to collect.
Being born into this life doesn’t mean a damn thing. I’ll earn my patch the same way every woman did before me… with blood, grit, and zero apologies.
This club is my family now. Her sisters are my sisters.
And we don’t beg. We don’t break. We ride.
This isn’t just revenge. It’s retribution.
They thought killing her would be the end… but it was the start of a war.
And I won’t stop until the road is slick with his blood.

🚨 Content Warning:
This story contains themes of violent crime, murder, execution, revenge, grief, and motorcycle club-related danger. It includes depictions of emotional trauma, loss of a parent, and graphic intent toward violence. Reader discretion is advised.

MY REVIEW: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 out of 5

This was a really good read. The story pulled me in from the start and held me until the end. It’s emotional, twisted, and a really good read. I have enjoyed The Royal Harlots MC books I’ve read so far and this book was no different. The women are tough, strong, independent, and just as dangerous as the men that they ride with. They aren’t afraid to stand up for those that need their help, and they don’t shy away from the danger that comes along with being in an MC.

Blaze has a lot to take in and process, it’s not easy and she finds herself in trouble by running her mouth and being stubborn, but when she finally see’s that she is strong and the people around her have her back she finds that peace she’s been looking for.

I enjoyed this story and give it 4 stars, I look forward to more of the RHMC and the RBMC from Thetta James.

When you play with fire, you’re bound to get burned.

Pyro

I can’t resist the allure of the flames. Fire is in my blood. The heat and the smoke raised me. Now
I wield them for my club. You want to get between me and my brothers? Mess with my club?
Think again.
Rumor has it she carries the mark of the mate, but trouble is right on her heels.
I don’t care who or what she’s running from. My club comes first. Always.
There’s just one problem: my true nature won’t let me reject the one who is meant to be mine.
So I can try to resist the fiery passion growing between us, but in the end we’ll both be consumed in the blaze.

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 out of 5

Pyro and Carina try to resist the bond, but it’s no use. Neither one are looking for their mate. One has been told from a young age that there was no mate for them and the other has trauma from when they bragged about their mate at a young age. Now they’re thrown together after a tragedy and Pyro can no longer avoid or resist his mate. One he’s committed, there’s no going back for him.

When danger comes knocking Pyro will do what is needed to protect Carina and keep her safe. Even returning home and facing his parents. Danger is lurking and the club will stand behind them both and help to protect them.

I love the characters in this series and the stories are great! Full of danger, action, Alpha protectors, and wonderfully, strong, independent women that keep their men on their toes. I love it and I can’t wait to read more.
