WOW. I am totally at a loss for words! I am so wound up in this diabolical series. Sully, the harem master, buys stolen beautiful women to make men's fantasies come true and to add to his bankroll. Eleanor, aka Jinx, sold to Sully and becomes his most rebellious goddess. There is a fatal attraction between them that neither one wants to acknowledge. And the ending -- whoa!!! Hurry -- I need the next book NOW!

Holy. Shizballs. Somebody should call fire brigade because shit just got real. What the heck, Sully!!! Gahhhh!!!

Okay, the author owed me. Big time. She owed me a new e-reader and money for water bill. How so? Because, oh my lawd, did the fire from Sully and Eleanor's chemistry burned me right from my pages of this book. I'm not kidding. These two had this fiery, raw and powerful connection that will leave you hot and bothered. I had to stop multiple times to freshen up, because they are on fire!!!

On the other hand, I loved that we had a bit of a backstory on Sully and omg! Did this girl fall in love. If his forceful persona and devilish charm didn't do it already, it's his dark, sorrowful past that breaks my walls. I love me some dark, broody, alpha, broken hero and Sully had it on spades and more. One more thing, I can't with that ending! I literally was flipping the pages for more only to reach the end and screamed, what!!!! I need book 3 asap!!!

WHAT?? YOU CANNOT END IT THERE. NOOO. I REFUSE. *SOBS*
So, after my little sob fest, I am here to redeclare my love for the Queen of Dark. This was even more amazing than the first book and you can tell so by my rating!!
Pepper did something amazing with this book. She touched a theme that is very close to my heart. No spoilers, but she pulled at my heartstrings and made Sullivan my new cinammon roll. A very dangerous cinammon roll, but he is all mine!
So, if you loved the first book, this book will leave you gasping!! Sizzling, fast paced and utterly addictive. This book is not one to miss.
The author has this unicorn like ability to create such enthralling characters and both Sully and Eleanor spoke to my heart. Their chemistry, the push and pull quality of their relationship was mesmerising to watch. I couldn't get enough.
I am so excited to see where this is going to lead us. April 21st cannot come soon enough!!

5 GODLIKE STARS!

ABSOLUTELY LOVED, Loved this book!!!! Eleanor and Sullivan, their two characters are perfect!!! I can not wait for book 3!!!! This series is amazing!!! Well written and really love the story!!!

Sully doesn’t want to admit he likes Eleanor/Jinx but with every passing second, he can’t keep denying it to himself anymore. The inner battle in him hurts him as much as it hurts her and there is a part of this book where more than he is comfortable is revealed about him. It definitely made me see him in a different light, I shouldn’t like him but I can’t help it! He’s a dark character that I love, he is fast becoming one of my favourite heroes by Pepper Winters.

Eleanor is more defiant in this book which I was not surprised about for even a single second, it made sense that she was. She seizes a chance in this book and that chance leads her to finding out more about Sully than she bargained for. She’s warring with herself, and the inner battle that she has is very interesting to see. She is the character that I’m interested to see in terms of development. Her mindset is an intriguing place to be.

Pepper Winters never fails to hook me into her story. I remember starting to read this book and wanting to read as slowly as possible so it didn’t have to end. I love dark reads and this book doesn’t disappoint me at all. I was captivated from the first word to the very last one in this book. There’s twists and turns and I didn’t see the ending coming at all. I was not surprised by one thing that happened in this book because it was inevitable but at the same time I was kind of cheering for it because it makes the story that much more interesting. For all those who are on the fence about this series, please read Once A Myth and you will be so drawn in, I cannot stop thinking about these books, and I’m now impatiently waiting for Third a Kiss. Pick up Once A Myth and enjoy!

5 JUST WOW STARS!! Wow, just wow!! This series is going to kill me. The feels and angst will have you screaming, pulling your hair, but you can't put this book down. This author is phenomenal with her storytelling. You definitely need to read this series.

4.5 stars--TWICE A WISH is the second instalment in Pepper Winters’ contemporary, adult GODDESS ISLES dark, erotic romance series focusing on billionaire Sullivan Sinclair, and his captive Eleanor ‘Jinx’ Grace. The GODDESS ISLES series is set in the same world as the author’s MONSTERS IN THE DARK and the INDEBTED series. TWICE A WISH should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book one ONCE A MYTH.

WARNING: Due to the nature and dark content of the story line premise, there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.

SOME BACKGROUND: At twenty-one years old, Eleanor Grace was kidnapped, violated and drugged on her way to becoming a sexual slave. A prisoner in a gilded cage, Eleanor, along with several other girls, are either the willing sexual partner in a fantasy island paradise, or find themselves forced into a lifetime of suffering and pain. Purchased by billionaire Sullivan Sinclair, Eleanor is defiant to the end but a defiance that will come with a price. Four years a slave, Eleanor is about to discover that all is not well on the island paradise or with the man who now dominates and governs every aspect of her life.


Told from dual first person perspectives (Sullivan and Eleanor) TWICE A WISH focuses on the continuing turmoil that has become Eleanor Grace’s life. Billionaire and pharmaceutical magnet Sullivan Sinclair owns several islands in the south Pacific but his goddesses, as he likes to call his sexual slaves, live, work and reside on the Goddess Isles. Owning and operating a fantasy island for the uber rich, Sullivan Sinclair ‘procures’ his goddesses through kidnapping and sexual slavery, and in doing so he believes the women he ‘rescues’ are nothing more than prisoners in a gilded cage but Eleanor Grace draws Sullivan Sinclair like a moth to a flame, a flame that is not once, but twice, forced into doing what she has never done before.

TWICE A WISH reveals some of the heart breaking background and history of the man we have come to know as Sullivan Sinclair. The demons of his past drive his present, but with money and power Sinclair turns the tables in an effort to control and punish the people who represent everything wrong in his life.

A dark, gritty, raw and intense read TWICE A WISH, like many of Pepper’s previous releases follows a Stockholm Syndrome premise wherein our heroine will quickly fall for her captor, a man who may be more damaged than anyone could have imagined. The premise is controversial, creative and dramatic; the characters are broken but strong, tragic and colorful; the romance is mired by dubious consent, slavery, ownership and unnatural lust.

Omg!! This series is Deep and Dark and I love it. Pepper never fails to plunge me headfirst into the darkness like I am a character. Eleanor and Sully have my heart begging for more. We see some characters that hide in her other books and it's brilliant. I need Book 3 like a drug!

Picking up right where Once a Myth left off, Pepper continues to thrill and amaze the reader with this continuation of Sully and Eleanor's story. Jinx is bound and determined to learn all she can about Sully, to reveal all there is under his armor.

Strap in tight, readers! Pepper takes us on a journey that is not to be rushed! Savor every page, from the decadent locale to the intense heat and passion drifting up from the pages. This story is slowly evolving and revolving, and lovers of the dark and twisted are going to eat this up.

Jinx is as stunning as ever with her determination and compassion for animals. This only adds to Sully's storm of staying away from her and their magnetic pull! Will he kick her off his island or keep her?

What did I just read?! OMG I’m consumed by this series...by Pepper Winters..by Sully and Jinx. I can’t get my hands on these books fast enough!!! Thank you Pepper for writing these captivating books that just suck you in and leave you craving more🔥

OMG! Sully... can I say his epiphany regarding her was everything! I keep trying to fit Sully into a box that doesn’t fit. I love Pika. To see him treat that bird with such care, you think he has to have a heart. When he finds out about Skittles... I actually laughed out loud. It’s like the glimpses we get of his heart just confuse me. When his past is given to us, I cried. It made so much make sense.

When I read about her first experience in Euphoria, I thought I knew what had happened. Well, I was wrong, and now I’m mad as all heck. I also don’t know how I feel about Roy. These men that pay so much for these experiences... I don’t want to like them, but I felt bad for Roy. I also don’t know what I feel about Calvin. He is one of those characters that I could be lulled into a false sense of security about him.

I just can’t wait to see what comes next. It feels like torture because I just want to know now. This book ended in a way that I can’t even guess what’s coming next. I do know that this author is amazing. Regardless of the genre whatever she writes is magic to me.

The books in this series cannot release soon enough for this girl. These books are dark and deliciously wonderful. I got some answers but have a bunch of new questions about Sully and Jinx, still wondering what is reality what is not and where on earth is this all going. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book provided by NetGalley for an honest review.

Omg I thought book one blew me away but apparently I was so wrong. This is only book two in this amazing series and I can't tell you enough that you have to read this book and series. This book continues the story of Sully and Eleanor's story and what a story it is. This book is a page turner and so addictive that you can't stop reading until you have finished the book and still the story stays with you. It is dark, gritty, captivating, hot and you feel everything coming of the page's as if you are there . I can't wait for the next book and it will not come fast enough. Pepper Winters is an incredible author and amazing writer, she takes you in and doesn't let you go. You really need to read this book and series to experience everything that is Pepper Winters.

AHHHHHHH
book 1 has a cliffhanger so you need book 2 immediatly. Pepper is bbaccccckkk yall.. Goddess Isles is exactly what the doctor order and we all need the world created here. Its slavery and hedonism. Its orgasms and desire. Its decadence and degrading.. its everything.. but what does work in this dark romance is that back story. Its intense and powerful. Book 2 had me screaming in my bubble bath and I need book 3 soooooo bad right now. wow. perfection in a book wow.

Pepper is an author who writes dark stories like noone else. In The Goddess Isles she has created a world unlike another. The imagery created transports you so much so I felt like I was there with Sully and Eleanor.

The first book left me with questions and theories and obviously I'm not as devious as Ms Winters because they were wrong.

The passion is intense, the sex scenes are hot Pepper turned the smallest touch into something beautiful and unexpected. I have a feeling we have not even scratched the surface of all that is Sullivan Sinclair and I can't wait to find our more especially after that ending.

You know those books that you feel like you hold your breath through from start to finish? Those OMG moments? Those moments with such feeling and emotion you feel it deep down in your soul? THIS BOOK IS ALL THAT AND MORE!

Twice A Wish is book two in the Goddess Isles series which picks up right where book one left off. Pepper Winters brings us deeper into the story of Jinx and Sully, two people who are drawn to each other on an entirely different level. Two people who are not exactly who we think they are and we get a really good look at them in this book.

I have to say, this book has me guessing...did that really just happen? Was it him or was it? I’m totally beside myself trying to put all the pieces together. It’s raw, it’s dirty and so freakin’ delicious!

If book two can make me feel like this...I cannot WAIT to see what Pepper does in book three!

Gaaaahhhhh....what a story. After reading Once a Myth I couldn’t wait for this so as soon as it landed on my kindle I jumped into it. What a rollercoaster of a ride the author threw me on.

From gasping many times to grabbing the chocolate this author pulled me through so many emotions.

Dark and steamy this was an amazing read and I can’t wait to read book three.

Can’t praise this series highly enough. I loved it.

Twice a Wish was just as spellbinding as Once a Myth!

As the plot gets a little more darker the steam factor hots up to an whole new level between Eleanor and Sully, it's now hanging on the edge of an inferno. The intensity between them is so mystifying but make no mistake, you will not be able to take your eyes off the pages of this book.

This whole series has such a great plot with twists and turns that you would never imagine, all while living in such an exotic paradise your really trapped in your own personal hell, while your falling in love with your captor. He only cares about animals but not humans that is until Eleanor starts to break through his barriers. Both feel torment at feeling something for each other while they both know that they shouldn't.

This is some of Pepper Winters best writing ever, the story is captivating as it is emotional. I am loving where the storyline is going and really cant wait for the next book to see what happens to them next.

Twice A Wish, a suspenseful, edgy read that grips you and doesn't let go until you have turned the last page. A completely unputdownable second installment, that picks up right where Once A Myth left off.

From the very beginning this series grips hold of you and once it does it will not let you go. The storyline is so dark, so twisted, and deliciously devious. Just brilliant!!

A nail-biting dark romance that got me hooked right from the start, and screaming for more in that heart-stopping cliffhanger. I was completely satisfied and emerged in this phenomenal world in which the author has put together an amazing dynamic plot structure, characters, suspense, emotion, and the love/hate relationship that makes of this story such a mind-blowing experience.

I won't give spoilers, but all I can tell you is that I loved every word, and I'm already anxious for the next one. If you haven't, you need to start this fabulous series today!!
