A NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY TOP TEN BOOK OF THE YEAR
"Short, strange, spiky and sublime.” —Dwight Garner, New York Times
“Funny, ghastly, eye-opening, marvelous.” —Wall Street Journal
From the visionary author of Sudden Death, a hallucinatory, revelatory colonial revenge story.
One morning in 1519, conquistador Hernán Cortés enters the city of Tenochtitlan – today's Mexico City. Later that day, he will meet the emperor Moctezuma in a collision of two worlds, two empires, two languages, two possible futures.
Cortés is accompanied by his captains, his troops, his prized horses, and his two translators: Friar Aguilar, a taciturn friar, and Malinalli, an enslaved, strategic Nahua princess. After nearly bungling their entrance to the city, the Spaniards are greeted at a ceremonial welcome meal by the steely Aztec princess Atotoxtli, sister and wife of Moctezuma. As they await their meeting with the emperor – who is at a political and spiritual crossroads, and relies on hallucinogens to get by – Cortés and his entourage are ensconced in the labyrinthine palace. Soon, one of Cortés’s captains, Jazmín Caldera, overwhelmed by the grandeur of the place, begins to question the ease with which they were welcomed into the city, and wonders at the chances of getting out alive, much less conquering the empire. And what if... they don't?
You Dreamed of Empires brings Tenochtitlan to life at its height, and reimagines its destiny. The incomparably original Álvaro Enrigue sets afire the moment of conquest and turns it into a moment of revolution, a restitutive, fantastical counterattack, in a novel so electric and so unique that it feels like a dream.

Perfect Combinarion of Romantic Suspense & Why Choose
4.5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
I laughed, gasped, smiled, swooned, worried, and cried in this book. I am more emotional than some people but there were just a few scenes that I thought were beautiful, sad or relatable. (Those are all good enough reasons for me to tear up.)
—The friendship/brotherhood between Aiden and Miles is so wholesome and funny. They’ve just been through it all together and you can tell how much they mean to each other.
—The insta-love from Aiden was too much for me at first, but honestly it fit his personality and his perceptiveness. He knew they would all three be good together and mesh well. I think Aspen was able to reason through their fast attraction in a rational manner. Miles was slow to open up, which was expected with his history and trauma. They make an incredibly sexy throuple.
—I don’t always love the FMC, but Aspen is different and her character development felt relatable.
—Miles. M I L E S. Holy hell. 🔥🔥
-Overbearing? Maybe
-Grumpy? Of course
-Will do anything and everything to protect and care for those he loves?! ABSOLUTELY
—That ending was not *too* crazy but it did have me speed reading to make sure **spoiler** was okay. 🥺
—I’m seriously looking forward to book two and can’t wait to see what throuple is featured in the next book!

Love her romantic suspense
Format: Kindle
Kennedy L Mitchell is my go-to for romantic suspense. While this first book in the series is lower angst, it’s set up a great mystery that seems like it’ll cover at least the next book, maybe more. There is a bit of ex related drama on both Aspen’s and Miles & Aiden’s sides. Things definitely move quickly romantically and there was lots of excitement plot wise so you’re bound to find something to love with try this one.

New Romantic Suspense Series in a Poly Community
Format: Kindle
I was very excited to start this series and it exceeded expectations. First, if you haven't read the prequel novella, you should! It sets up the premise of the series and the idea of this poly community in Alaska where they run vacation adventures. This story picks up after the community is established and there is threat. The prologue is chilling. I loved this so much. I really enjoyed the FMC. Her drive and passion for photography and wilderness and how she was overcoming her history. I especially appreciate stories that showcase emotional abuse and manipulation that is more understated and creeps up on you. The MMCs had the best bromance and though they had a shared backstory, they were distinct from each other and had complementary personalities. So much understanding and acceptance in the relationship as a whole. Its sweet and spicy. There are multiple dangerous situations and red herrings - the final sequence of the book I was on the edge of my proverbial seat. Ready for book two!

My Thoughts 💭
I definitely feel the book is contemporary but there are some dark sides to it just because of their past and what they went through within the military as far as the guys.
I can say that I do love how Aiden and Miles are such good friends and how they stuck together and have helped each other.
Aiden is very goofy and free willing but has a lot of guilt and almost in a way self-conscious.
As were Miles gives off a dark and broody daddy vibe and Aspen ends up being the one to just unravel him.
I do love Aspen work and how she overcomes what she's been through and how she sees her growth and her self-worth and decides to put herself first.
This is a very much meat cute moment just because of the way they meet but then you have the backstory of like Miles and all of that...
I feel that the underlying plot of the mystery aspect really keeps you entangled into everyone else as of the side characters so I'm excited to see more of the series.
Spice is that a three just because I feel like there was so much more to their relationships and their interactions that the spice wasn't the forefront of it which was good because they needed to grow all three together and you need to see how they interacted separately and there was a lot of trauma healing in this book so it's understandable why the spice isn't the forefront.
I would say that if you're looking for something that is going to be sweet but yet pull at your heartstrings this will be the book.

I'm hoping some things will be wrapped up in book 2 but with the epilogue for this book being a year later I'm currently just confused. Otherwise a very good read.
