Sexy times abound! Which isn't always bad but I was looking forward more to the plot around the lighthouse and treasure. Still an enjoyable, hot read.

I received this as an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

The plot line is interesting, but definitely gets overshadowed by the main characters’ sex drives. I didn’t realize this was going to be F/F/F erotica, which is fine, but I was very unprepared going in.
The characters felt flat and not fleshed out and I personally was left wanting for character development. Overall it was fine, just not something I would normally pick up.

Over all this was a fun easy read. If you are looking for a spicy romance/ paranormal book to read on a summer get away, this might be the book for you.
Cyl Waterford inherits a cottage and lighthouse from an Aunt she never knew located in Tampa Florida. She plans to sell them both until she meets Luna, Martinique and a ghost who lives in the lighthouse.
This is a well written book that got me hooked. I found myself not wanting to put it down. There was just enough of a mystery to keep me guessing where the story would go.
Is this a fun, low angst page turner? For me, yes. Are there excessive spicy times? Yes and No. If you are reading for the spicy scenes you will really enjoy this book. For me it just started to feel like a place filler, not sure what to do next ... .add a sex scene. I did find myself speed reading or skipping over some of those because I just wanted to get on with the story.

I do like MJ Williamz and I think the core story here is interesting but for me it gets bogged down in side issues (sex mainly). The main character Cyl isn’t likeable and I found her a bit irritating. The supernatural story was intriguing and well developed and I would’ve liked more about the gang trying to outwit our ‘heroes’.

An okay read and I’ll look out for others by the author.

I was given a copy of this book by Netgalley

Thanks to Boldstrokes Books and Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for this review.

This story centers on Cly and the lighthouse she's inherited from an aunt she never knew. I chose this due to the premise, I love a good ghost story, and while it did keep me intrigued, it kind of became over shadowed by all the sex.
Now don't get me wrong the scenes were hella hot and I love that this became a throuple and not a triangle, but it became a little too much of the focus for me. Overall not a bad read, especially if you're looking for some steamy scenes to warm you up, but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for.

I choose this book based on the location of Tampa Florida which is a second home for me and I enjoyed reading about the area in this book. The ghost story was cute and had a HEA ending. But the majority of the book was about the three MCs have constant sex with each other in their throuple romance. Lots of hot sex scenes and very little emotion. I would have like more on their family backgrounds, their jobs and their thoughts and emotions.

I struggled with this one. The premise of the story was interesting, but it felt short in my opinion. This was just a story about a light house and sex. Regardless, i would recommend as it might appeal to someone else.

WOW Hot and steamy.
Cly has inherited a lighthouse and it’s haunted. She and her new friends are communicating with the ghost of a pirate who wants her ship and treasure found.
Along the way Cly and these friends turn to each other romantically and there is no stopping the love fest.
This story is crazy good.

Thank you @Netgalley. @BoldStrokesBooks for the ARC

The story itself is ok. It's a book to read on the go and in-between. There's not much character development, but lots and lots and lots of sex... If you're into a slightly trivial, easy read with probably too much sex, then this book is for you.

Ok book, quite a bit of sex going on and the threesomes were a bit to much for me. I like my romances to be one person at a time. And, this was not that. I literally skipped some of the scenes, because they were to much. The ghost story was fascinating to me, but again it got bogged down by all the sex going on. I really wanted to like this book, but it's not for me. Hopefully the next book will be more character driven and less sex driven. I would recommend this to people who like books like this.

I’m sorry to say I DNF this one. I was so excited for the haunted lighthouse aspect, but at 70% I realized that part of the story just wasn’t taking precedence. I feel like our characters got really close unrealistically fast which made it hard for me to root for them. This one wasn’t for me, but if you’re looking for light on the haunting heavy on the romance it might be for you.

Can you swear when leaving an ARC review? Because of holy sh*t! Sex... Sex... Sex...

The story itself is very interesting but does get overshadowed by all the threesomes going on... How did they not die of exhaustion?

Anyway, some nice ghostly going on’s and a nice story, if you're not into steamy sex scenes then I would probably give it a miss.

3 out of 5.

I received an ARC copy of this book from the Publisher via Netgalley and voluntarily leaving my review.

Cyl is shock to inherited a lighthouse from an aunt she didn’t know because of a fall out with their family but her Aunt watch her from a far and been proud of her. Cyl doesn’t do heat well and wants sell the lighthouse and get back to her life but when she learns it’s haunted she doesn’t believe it. Cyl decides to humor her Aunt friends and do a seance and it’s turns out there is a spirit there now they on a quest to help and along the way Cyl may found her home. It’s was ok read but it’s has too much sex which took me out of the story because it’s was more about that then the actual story to me. I’m going to give it four stars because I don’t like odd numbers and I like the author writing style it’s just this book I won’t read more then once but will recommend.

1star
At about the 50% spot I realized this was a thin ghost story entwined with erotic sex scenes. The 3some closed the book for me.
Not a story for me.

From the blurb about this book I thought I would like it but I find there is too much sex (I know, can you ever get too much?) and not enough romance or mystery in it for me. The writing is fine, just the story is not my ideal. Any one into plenty of really hot spicy sex will probably get on fine with it. I've given 3 stars as I think the writing is fine.

Sadly a DNF. If I would've known there would be detailed smut scenes I wouldn't have requested an ARC.

The premise of the book is still rather interesting. If you want to read some sapphic smut but still enjoy a base storyline then this could definitely be something for you.

Mj Williamz writing style is very easy to read. Short and to the point and only on the flowery side during NSFW scenes which makes it very available for any reader.
