Week 37 Reviews: Souls and Sorrows, Liars and Liaisons

From Goodreads:

Nobody asked him to step in.

I had everything under control, but by the time I shuffled onstage, there was no chance to stop him.

Men ogled and touched as I offered my body and soul to the highest bidder, and I could tell my stranger didn't like what he saw.

Or maybe he did.

Maybe he liked it too much, and that was why his number shot up.

A quarter billion dollars and one existential crisis later, Cash Primrose was dragging me down the aisle in the name of convenience.

I suppose it could be worse.

My new husband treats me as an equal, which is more than most women in my world get.

Still, I find myself constantly expecting the other shoe to drop.

For the beast who hides himself away, except in the dead of night, to show his true colors.

I'm waiting for the monster my mother always promised would come.

But maybe that monster is me.

Souls and Sorrows is a dark romance inspired by the myth of Eros and Psyche. It contains material not suitable for all audiences. Reader discretion is advised.

From Goodreads:

I met his brother first—while trying to avoid mine.

By the time the agoraphobic, unhinged, and musically-gifted Grayson James came crashing into my life, I was deeply infatuated with his elder sibling.

But that didn't stop him from ruining everything.

He stole something that wasn't his to have.

Something I hadn't known I was giving him.

After realizing he was unsatisfied with that little taste, he wanted more.

Wanted me.

Now, he's asked me to keep him company while he hides out in his family's rustic, mountainside estate.

Blackmailed me really.

Unfortunately, I need the money.

The escape.

It's not like I have much of a choice.

Grayson is determined to keep me around, as if my presence will assist him in rediscovering his passions.

And perhaps unmask a few dark ones of my own.

Liars and Liaisons is the sixth and final interconnected standalone in the Monsters & Muses series. It is a dark romance inspired by the Pan and Echo myths and contains material that may not be suitable for all audiences. Reader discretion is advised.
