The Pucking Wrong Number

-

 Blurb 

One text to the wrong number…mine…and everything changed.


He won’t tell me his last name, and maybe that should throw up a thousand red flags, but when I’m all alone in a new city and struggling to make ends meet, his texts are the lifeline I’ve been desperate for.


But I never would have answered that text if I’d known that Lincoln Daniels, superstar hockey player extraordinaire was the one sending them.


He’s trying to sweep me off my feet now. He says he’s obsessed.


He wants me wearing his number…permanently.


The question is…is he still the wrong number, or can this hockey god prove he’s Mr. Right?

My Review 

I just wrapped up "The Pucking Wrong Number," and let me tell you, it's a wild ride through the murky waters of love, trauma, and a whole lot of possessiveness.


Picture this: Monroe, tough as nails at barely 19, and Lincoln, the golden boy with a not-so-golden past, getting tangled in a web of mistaken texts. "The Pucking Wrong Number" kicks off with Monroe's snark meeting Lincoln's charm, and suddenly, you're knee-deep in a texting frenzy that's part cheesy, part addictive.


Sure, Monroe's got a list of horrors from her past, and Lincoln's wrestling with his demons, but who knew swapping texts could turn their worlds upside down? As their messages ping-pong back and forth, things get giddy for Monroe and downright obsessive for Lincoln. You'd think it's a recipe for a dark romance, but hold your horses. This book serves up sweetness with a side of obsession, and the drama? Well, it takes its sweet time to arrive.

And speaking of drama, when it finally does, it's like a rollercoaster. Lincoln's possessiveness cranks up to eleven, and just when you think they've hit peak saccharine, bam! Dark romance mode engaged. Suddenly, we're in the deep end, folks, with Lincoln showing his true colors in all their twisted glory.


But let's pump the brakes for a sec. While the text banter is top-notch, do we really need a detailed tour of every damn room they enter? And as for the grand finale, well, let's just say it left a bit to be desired. With all the shady characters lurking around, I was expecting a twist that'd knock my socks off, not a lukewarm surprise.


Overall, "The Pucking Wrong Number" might not be the dark romance it claims to be, but hey, it's still a wild ride. Think of it as your typical hockey romance with a hefty dose of possessiveness and a sprinkle of Stockholm syndrome. It's like watching a game where the puck keeps veering off course, but hey, at least the players know how to keep you entertained.

 This book dives headfirst into the unhinged mind of Aiden King—a man with zero boundaries, no sense of morality, and a possessiveness that is downright terrifying. It’s the kind of dark academia romance that will have you questioning your own sanity for enjoying it—and I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m here for every crazy minute of it. Aiden King is everything you’d expect from a dark romance anti-hero. He’s arrogant, dangerous, and a complete psychopath hiding behind the perfect mask of a star football player. He doesn’t care about anyone but himself, and he makes that clear from the get-go. Aiden’s possessiveness is toxic and more often than not, far from charming—he’s the kind of guy that, if you met in real life, you’d probably want to avoid at all costs. Those grey eyes would be enough to make me want to play dead if I ever crossed his path. Try run, and he’ll chase. But in the safety of the pages? I couldn’t get enough of his twisted mind. Or maybe I just need therapy. Aide...

I’m going to start by saying this: Cruel King is a cornerstone of the “RinaVerse” and an unapologetic guilty pleasure of mine. Yes, I’ve read it more than once, and despite all the hate this series gets, I’ll never be among the critics. This is a dark romance, and for those who love the genre, it delivers exactly what it promises: a whole lot of angst, intensity, and some serious emotional rollercoasters. Let’s talk about Levi King, shall we? He’s a bully. He’s crazy. He’s a total dick most of the time. He demands that everyone bow, break, and bend the knee before him, and he expects no less. But honestly, what do you expect from a dark romance “hero”? You don’t get sunshine and roses here—you get rain, thorns, and all the twisted emotions that come with them. Levi King is ruthless, and that’s part of why I love him. I’ll join him to enjoy the rain any day, thank you very much. He’s one of those morally dark heroes who sticks with you. Sure, his methods are unhinged, but I love every m...

Twisted Kingdom / RinaVerse #4 / Royal Elite #3

  Twisted Kingdom is a fitting, intense end to Aiden and Elsa’s wild, twisted journey. If you’ve followed them through the first two books, get ready, because this one takes a slightly different turn. It’s still as unhinged as ever, with Aiden’s psychopathic tendencies and Elsa’s blind stubbornness in full force, but this time, the story dives even deeper, becoming more emotional and—dare I say it—heartbreaking. In Twisted Kingdom, the revelations about Aiden and Elsa’s past hit hard. Watching them confront the darkest parts of their histories was surprisingly gut-wrenching, and it added layers of emotion I didn’t expect. While Aiden is still the headstrong little psycho we know and love, Elsa starts to grow in new ways, finally coming to terms with her place by Aiden’s side. This book is more about closure and self-acceptance than just their toxic chemistry, and seeing Elsa finally accept her fate—knowing it’s always been with Aiden—was incredibly satisfying. Unlike the previous b...
