Reviewing Book Wretched: (Never After Series) by Emily McIntyre

Reviewing This book is part of the Never After series, but is still a standalone and can be read without reading the prior books. I do however, highly suggest checking the trigger warnings before reading just in case. Honestly just wow! The amount of love I have for Eveline is out of this world. Nick is undercover. She’s the unknown target. They are both twisted and broken. Can these unlikely duo heal and mend each others wounds and find love? Can they forgive lie after lie? “Oh Pretty Girl… I’ll be whatever you want me to be.” It is dual POVs of the main characters as well and has some great tropes like, enemies to lovers and a forbidden romance.

Reviewing Scarred (Never After Series) by Emily McIntyre         Scarred is a forbidden dark royal romance book.

Tristan is forbidden, a

 Reviewing Books The Hooked (Never After Series) by Emily McIntyre  If you're into dark romance with unexpected twists, this book series is for you. I discovered it through TikTok, where it had many positive reviews, so I decided to give it a try. Once I finished the first book, I found myself really enjoying Emily McIntire's writing style. It’s incredibly easy to get “hooked,” and before I knew it, I had finished the book within three days; I simply couldn’t put it down. The book features short, quick chapters, which is a bonus for readers who prefer a fast-paced read. I personally don't like  quick chapters I like to get to know my characters but I didn't realize they were short until I fished it fast. However, the character development was minimal, making the characters feel flat and one-dimensional, similar to watching a movie rather than reading deeply which does. The experience was similar like watching a movie rather than diving deeply into the characters person
