20th May,2018So far I read this book 3 times and still it's so freaking good. I'll never get tired of this crazy man! <3 “I would destroy that pussy.”“You think so?” I ask.“Without a doubt,” he says, not letting up. “I’d wreck you for any man that came along after me, put them all to shame.” Well, I don’t know Scarlet BUT Lorenzo definitely destroyed me... :DWhen I first met Lorenzo Gambini, he was Ignazio Vitale's enemy (or his friend? And if you want to find out, you have to read Target On O...

a mafia romance with a wise crackin disabled hero & a bad ass sex positive sex worker? in the year of our lord 2018? you bet your assokay so this story follows morgan and lorenzo. lorenzo is a fun loving, mafia- boss- killing sociopath with a narrative unlike any i've ever read. i genuinely laughed out loud more than once, which i was not expecting for something marketed as a mafia romance. morgan is a 21 year old sex worker who has a run in with lorenzo when she pickpockets him at a bar. from t...

Lorenzo is nuts!!

"People call me Scar for a reason, and it doesn't entirely have to do with the fact that my face got fucked up. I'm the villain. Everything the light touches in this city belongs to me." Menace is the first book in the Scarlet Scars Series, and this debut novel has absolutely secured its rightful place on my BEST BOOK EVER SHELF! J.M. Darhower does it again with another action packed Mafia Romance that will leave you begging for more! "Death doesn't always come with a scream and a bang..."

4.5 StarsI, Steph, am in love with a gun wielding murdering sociopath named Lorenzo and I regret nothing. I want to have his psychotic babies even though he claims to not want children. I'll make him change his mind. I will. Not sure who Lorenzo is? I'll remind you. For those who read the Monster In His Eyes trilogy (and if you haven't don't even talk to me you until you do - you need to get your life right), Lorenzo is a character from Target On Our Backs. He's a little testy. A little crazy.

4 StarsOverall Opinion: I completely missed the fact that this ends on a cliffy! So be warned -- this is NOT a standalone!. I'm frustrated with myself, but it wasn't that bad of a cliffy to where I am mad. I do usually like to wait until the whole series/duet is complete so I don't have to wait for books to come out, so I am kicking myself a little here. I really enjoyed these characters! The H was awesome! I felt weird giving him 5 stars because he still is pretty psycho, but I loved him! His

4.5 stars ❤❤❤❤❤ Wow another fantastic story by J.M Darhower! I was hooked from the very beginning, the plot was unique and I was intrigued by the mystery around the story! This isn't your typical romance!!Lorenzo and Scarlet were both so alike but when these two get together it's like an explosion! The chemistry between these two was fantastic and the sexy scenes were passionate and super hot!I'm eagerly awaiting the next book to see where JM Darhower leads us! If you are looking for a dark, add...

Enter to win a signed paperback of this awesome duet!!! Go to www.steamyreads.net - right on the front page - can't miss it!!!5 Stars!! “I just think about how fucked up it is to realize that heroes are make-believe but monsters are real. That's the world we live in. There's no knight in shining out there. It's just me, trapped in a world filled with fire-breathing dragons.” If you are fallowing my reviews, you know by now that I’m a big fan of this author. J.M. Darhower neve...

4.5 STARS He's excitement. He's adrenaline.He makes my heart do stupid shit.Shit my heart shouldn't be doing.Because everything that turns me on about him could also snuff me out. Want to know a recipe for a whole lot of awesome?Take one part heroine that's snarky, sarcastic, as strong as she is broken, can stand her own with anyone, has enough sass and backbone to make her awesome from start to finish.Take one part anti-hero that's as hot as he is totally f*cked up. Make him have an i...

DIBS... Nope, I called dibs and Lorenzo(Scar)Gambini is all mine. Is he crazy and psychotic?? Well yeah but hot damn. I mean, he will seriously put a bullet in your head for walking into his library but just being near him and all the feels would be so worth it. I think that what I liked about him is that even though he is the boss in New York, he takes care of business himself. He has his loyal guys but he gets bored so he takes it upon himself to take care of business some of the time. The...

3 StarsIt sure felt that way. I was reading it forever, one word forward, two words back.Not that this book is bad. It’s pretty good, actually. But as the story progressed my heart just wasn’t in it anymore. So I’m not going to lie, I struggled. I had a huge crisis somewhere around the middle and I almost DNF’d it a couple of times.The hero was not the issue. He's exactly the type of hero I love. Dark, damaged, scarred, deadly, cold, unapologetic, unpredictable, observant, sarcastic, paradoxical...

4 STARS J.M. Darhower delivers yet another imperfect antihero to root for with Lorenzo Gambini. The delivery was well paced, the humor, heat, and danger, all well-proportioned and adding up to one solid read. "People call me Scar for a reason, and it doesn't entirely have to do with the fact that my face got fucked up. I'm the villain. Everything the light touches in this city belongs to me." The heroine is sassy and snarky and very relatable. While the hero has that unexplained quality that

Morgan's life has been one big nightmare - all because of a cruel Russian mob chasing after her. Morgan always relied only on herself - until Lorenzo came along. ❤Lorenzo Gambini is the ultimate anti-hero! 👑He's a dangerous man - and I don't mean as the bad-boy heart-breaker type, I mean "If you see him in a dark alley? RUN!!!!!" 😂With his scarred face, he looks just like the monster the stories make him out to be - but he has a good heart (sometimes) and his cynicism made me laugh out loud

Oh me likey likey!! WARNING: “Scarlet Scars contains themes that are dark in nature. Some scenes may be difficult to read. Readers who are triggered by violent or sexual content should proceed with caution. " MENACE: The first chapter sent chills up and down my spine, setting the scene for a terrifying, gritty read. Spoken in ‘Dual Perspective’ Morgan aka Scarlet & Lorenzo..Mence is a spin off from the Monster in his eyes trilogy where Lorenzo first became known to us, but t

Wow, MENACE, is another amazing mafia book by Ms. Darhower. For the Darhower fans, they will be excited to know that Lorenzo Gambini from Targets On Our Back is the main character in this book. For those who haven’t read TOOB no worries because Ms. Darhower wrote this book as a new series with no prior knowledge needed to read it. This new series is aptly named Scarlet Scars. It’s a 2-parter with the second part being released at the beginning of February. I’m so excited that both books are bein...
