Some are even very unhappy about it.🌙 Recension: Of Silver and Curses (Lingering Fates #1) & Of Melodies and Maledictions (Lingering Fates #0.5) by Maddox Grey📚 Genre: Romantasy📅 Release Date: June 17, 2026 (Audiobook)📖 Publisher: Greymalkin Press👤 Narrator: Cassandra Medcalf, Stephan Godleski, Megan Carver, Nick Monteleone📗 Of Silver and Curses / Of Melodies and Maledictions 📱 Read as: Audiobook💸 I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.🗣️ Language: English📆 Listening Length: 12h 30min+2h 17min⭐️ 4/5Review:Of Silver and Curses:I had the pleasure of listening to this as an audiobook, and while I might not be a fan of a lot of spice, I have to say that this one kept me very entertained.Our FMC and MMC couldn’t be more different, but they also have a lot in common. When they first met, they had a connection (mainly physical, though), but when they learned who they really were, it resulted in them disliking each other - not because of a concrete reason, but more because of a past they weren’t responsible for. A past that shaped who they are today, as both had to face loss and rejection in different ways. When their siblings fall in love, they don’t enjoy being connected in this way, but when they go missing, there is no doubt in their minds that they need to overcome their dislike and come together to find them.Is this trope something completely new? Is the outcome somewhat expected? Yes. Did that take away from it being an entertaining story? Definitely not. I had a lot of fun with it, and once I started accepting things for what they are, I found myself rooting for this couple - a lot 🙂. If you like your characters messy and being forced together on a mission (where they form a bond and start to like each other - a lot), this one will be for you, and you will enjoy it a lot.Of Melodies and Maledictions:This one takes an event that was already mentioned in the main story: how our couple initially met, felt connected to each other, and learned who they really are. It adds some background, but not too much also.
📚 So this is what true love looks like? 🌙 Recensi 📚 So this is what true love looks like?🌙 Recension: The Way Back To You by Hayden Fox📚 Genre: Romance📅 Release Date: June 16, 2026📗 included in Kindle Unlimited📱 Read as: Kindle💸 I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.🗣️ Language: English📆 Pages: 508⭐️ 4/5This is a book I had really high hopes for. It started out by grabbing my attention immediately. We meet Ken and her 2.5-year-old son. Being a single parent is not easy, and the daily challenges that come with that came across very well. We also meet Kai, who finds out that she kept his son from him, and when he confronts her about it, they both have to face their past and find a way to move forward.The dual POV (at the end we get a brief 3rd one) and the switching between past and present helped to highlight the connection between the two of them. They started out as childhood friends and evolved into something more during their teenage years. If you want to see a couple in love that feels believable and has you rooting for them to find their way back to each other, this is the one. I believed every bit of their love story and understood why the connection is still there when they meet again after a few years of no contact.Ken never learned to love herself, and being Black came with a unique set of challenges while growing up. Kai never considered the colour of her skin to be relevant. Both of them had to face the reality of their relationship over the years, and this was portrayed very well.Their attempt to find their way back to each other came with a lot of unique hurdles to overcome. They cannot ignore what happened, but they also want to move on. I was rooting for them.If the story had stayed focused on that and on them building a future together, I would have made it perfect to me. Part of the final bit of the story did not fully resonate with me and I wanted the focus to stay on their connection. That does not take away from it being a very enjoyable read. #arcread#thewaybacktoyou

As the captain of the Seattle Rogues, I shouldn’t betray my only sibling, and I ought to honor the promise I made to our late mom to stand by him.But my brother isn’t a good man, and I can’t take my eyes off the stunning bartender with sleek black hair and a smile that falters whenever she gets a text from the guy who never deserved her.Voicing my feelings is a terrible idea.
