Book: A Mid Nights Bloody Dream by Alisha Williams
Reviewed by Booksbystarlightandshadows
I was expecting this to be a bit darker from the blurb but although there are some dark themes mentioned, it mostly relates to previous incidents off page. Cove is never really at risk from the MMCs and although she doesn't immediately accept her situation, the run in at the warehouse before the "relocating" defused some of that tension for me. I did like how the book wasn't just escape attempts and instead Cove was leaning into enjoying it whilst waiting for the shoe to drop. Williams can definitely do dark and possessive MMCs (I'm looking at you Linc) but these guys are more of the cinnamon roll (for her) variety although they are still solidly in the morally grey camp! Shepherd was a lot of fun, and Maverick & Saint with their sweet gestures won me over, but I did find Saint and Maverick a little interchangeable at points but that's probably because Shep was more of a unique character! I'd have loved to have seen a couple more flashbacks from that summer too (as well as some of the moments showing just how much the brothers have intervened in Cove's path prior to the reunion) and a little bit more one one time with the MMCs but overall it's another solid standalone why choose from Alisha Williams!
My interpretation of the star system;
3 stars - I enjoyed it overall; would read the author again
4 stars - I really liked it; I am invested and definitely want more from this author/series
5 stars - I loved it; I engaged with this book completely until I finished it and it is one I will re-read
