Book Review: Contract Bound by Elle Mae
Tumblr media
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 (4 stars)
TW (for this book): blood, gore, sexual assault, abuse, and other adult themes
Listen. Was this book spectacularly well written? No. Was Silvia a particularly deep/well-done character? Also no. But did I have just SO MUCH fun reading this? Absolutely oh my god I had so much fun reading this.
I loved the way Elle Mae did enemies to lovers because it wasn't "love interest does something horrible and morally disgusting and then 20 pages later suddenly all is forgiven because they're in love now", it was genuinely just Silvia's disdain for vampires that caused a large majority of the tension between their characters.
Literally the only thing I didn't like was the way that the mid-plot conflict came about - I knew it was coming because it's a romance novel, but the trope is just kind of one that gets on my nerves. A little too close to miscommunication for my taste. Also, the scene with Victor was icky, but I read the trigger warnings and knew that was coming so I can't be too mad.
But other than that this was so fun I haven't had this much genuine fun with a story in a while.
The ending? Jaw DROPPED. The second book? In my library IMMEDIATELY. This book had me giggling kicking my feet and I need to know what happens next.

Favorite mythical creature(s) aaaaand go!

Vampires will always have a special place in my heart. Ever since the Twilight craze of my middle school days and having to sneak read it because my mom was against vampires because they were Satanic or whatever (that's what I remember, anyway). If only I hadn't brought it to church. 😂
@rainbowcrate recently did a special edition of Contract Bound by Elle Mae (I believe it was a RAD exclusive), but their magnet for this month showcases Silvia and Keir from this lesbian vampire romance.

Malice by Heather Walter-
Once upon a time, there was a wicked fairy who, in an act of vengeance, cursed a line of princesses to die. A curse that could only be broken by true love’s kiss.
You’ve heard this before, haven’t you? The handsome prince. The happily-ever-after.
Utter nonsense.
Let me tell you, no one in Briar actually cares about what happens to its princesses. Not the way they care about their jewels and elaborate parties and charm-granting elixirs. I thought I didn’t care, either.
Until I met her.
Princess Aurora. The last heir to Briar’s throne. Kind. Gracious. The future queen her realm needs. One who isn’t bothered that I am Alyce, the Dark Grace, abhorred and feared for the mysterious dark magic that runs in my veins. Humiliated and shamed by the same nobles who pay me to bottle hexes and then brand me a monster. Aurora says I should be proud of my gifts. That she . . . cares for me. Even though it was a power like mine that was responsible for her curse.
But with less than a year until that curse will kill her, any future I might see with Aurora is swiftly disintegrating—and she can’t stand to kiss yet another insipid prince. I want to help her. If my power began her curse, perhaps it’s what can lift it. Perhaps, together, we could forge a new world.
Nonsense again.
Because we all know how this story ends, don’t we? Aurora is the beautiful princess. And I—
I am the villain
Contract Bound by Elle Mae-
From Silvia's point of view, vampires are blood sucking soul less creatures that don't give a damn about any of the humans in this world. She decided that the only way for her to live: Kill vampires and pay off her crippling debt.
Silvia was adamant about not working for blood suckers but when they came to her with the promise of erasing all her debt she couldn't say no.
Now the accomplished hunter is forced to baby sit the most dangerous vampire heir in the world. Their excuse is that humans are smart and they have finally found a way to fight back. Silvia knew as soon as she set eyes on the breathtaking heir to the vampire throne that there was more than meets the eye. She knew that what ever the human rebels had in store could not possibly be more dangerous than the person in front of her.
Can the heir teach her that not all vampires are soul less monsters? It's hard to say but one thing is for certain, the attraction between them is deadly.

maaaeeee
first of all, CONGRATS on 6k??? I can't imagine anyone more deserving tbh, your talent is truly unmatched and it has been a pleasure getting to read all of ur works (even for the fandom's I'm not in 😩 )
I was hoping to play "mae rambles ; send me a character + a concept and I'll write some headcanons" if that's alright??
I wonder what Sirius Black would be like with a black cat!reader? maybe as he's trying to woo her hahaha
xx
Okay I have to share that when I first read this I thought you meant a cat animagus reader and I was like "oh he'd def put catnip in his pockets" hahahah butttt moving on thank you!!! I'm curious which fandoms you're not in!! I know you as a marauders account but are you not in any other fandoms/have you not seen stranger things, criminal minds, etc.? Might be a silly question but I just find myself curious
Anyway, Sirius with a black cat!reader
he genuinely is in awe of you, he thinks you're so badass
that said, as soon as there's a crack in the veneer he's exploiting it with insane amounts of teasing
much, much more affectionate than you, and esp in public (he likes to kiss your lipstick messy or get you ruffled in any obvious way so you're walking around all stone-faced but very obviously his, it's a bit silly)
i think he would tap into an even more exuberant energy to balance you out, he will absolutely be your cheerleader, your spokesperson, whatever you need
in private, he will nettle you into tapping into your softer energy in turn (though he'd never make you do it in public)
talks to you in the sweetest voice, never shuts up about how perfect you are, just totally showers you in this excess of positive energy that he's more or less giving you in hopes that you'll also start to give it to yourself
and yet. when you do give in, he teases you relentlessly. yes, it's working against his own aims (and he'll realize this belatedly) but he can't help himself <3

I guess I’m just a sucker for those “forced to learn to dance with your hot af enemy,” tropes.

my head canon on oshamae twins modern au is that they both dress themselves pretty covered with limited skin exposure but Mae likes skin tight/fitted clothes while Osha dresses very relaxed and baggy.
like they're not exactly girly and boyish twin types but Mae just likes to not drown in clothing and Osha definitely likes layering
I think Mae likes to fully accessorize on a daily basis while Osha is like earrings and necklace and she's done lol
(DO NOT BE FOOLED THEY HAVE MULTIPLE PIERCINGS MAE JUST LIKES TO UTILIZE IT❗❗❗)

April TBR 2024--
Tumblr media
This next month is set to be full of rereads, hockey romances, and new to me books. It is also the month I'm starting a certification program so it will probably be a bit of a struggle to get through this month's TBR. I don't even remember the last time I've thought that about a month's TBR. I really hope I have as much fun with this TBR as I'm expecting to. I've really been in the mood for these rereads and these hockey romance so I'm excited to finally get to it.
Silver in the Bone by Alexandra Bracken-- This is just one of a few rereads this month. Book two in the series comes out next month. I originally read this one as an ARC so I definitely need a refresher first. Tamsin Lark is a mortal with no magical talent who was never meant to break into ancient crypts or compete with sorceresses and Cunning folk for the treasures inside. But treasure hunting is the only way she could keep herself and her brother Cabell alive following her thieving foster father's disappearance. Ten years later she's looking for a ring that is supposed to save her brother from a curse. It's based in Arthurian legend.
Teen Titans: Beast Boy by Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo-- Another reread before a new book in the series. I remember enjoying this one slightly less than Raven's book, but I still enjoyed meeting a new character and getting their origin story. I also felt like it addressed an issue that isn't brought up a lot: male body image issues. We see it addressed a lot in fiction for girls, but there are boys who also go through this growing up. Plus it's beast boy and lots of green animals.
The Score by Elle Kennedy-- A hockey romance! I've been so in the mood for hockey romances this year. I don't know if it's because I found a few new to me authors and bought some kindle books for Christmas or what. In this one we follow Allie Hayes who is in crisis mode. Graduation is looming and she's dealing with a broken heart thanks to the end to her longtime relationship. Wild rebound sex is definitely not the solution to her problems, but gorgeous hockey star Dean Di Laurentis is impossible to resist. Just one though because even if her future is uncertain it sure as heck doesn't include Dean. It seems like he's going to pursue her after she puts him in the friend zone following their one night stand. I love it when the guy falls first or the guy is pursuing the girl so I'm looking forward to this one.
Stars and Smoke by Marie Lu-- The last of the rereads for this month. I'm so excited for the next book too. In this one we follow an international pop sensation named Winter Young who is brought into the world of spies when a major crime boss gifts his daughter a private concert with Winter for her birthday. Sydney Cossette is a member of the elite covert ops group who is forced to work alongside Winter to infiltrate the crime organization's inner circle. This was such a fun and quick read for me last year and I can't wait to go back into this world of glitz, glam, and spies.
Bad Men by Julie Mae Cohen (NetGalley)-- This one just sounded so good when I saw it on NetGalley. It's unhinged women at its finest. Saffy Huntley-Oliver is an intelligent and glamorous socialite; she also happens to be a proficient serial killer. Over the course of fifteen years, she's dispatched bad men--rapist, murderers, domestic abusers. But leading a double life has left her lonely. Dating's rough when your boyfriend might turn out to be your next victim. Saffy thinks she's finally found a truly good man in Jonathan Desrosiers, a true crime podcaster. This is a feminist thriller that asks if even a serial killer can have a happily ever after. My hopes for this one? Rich people drama and some mad women.
The Hemlock Queen by Hannah F. Whitten (New Release)-- The second book in the series is finally coming out. This series starts with Lore, who has a dark power and a hidden past, as we follow her into the intrigue of the Sainted King's royal court. The king and his priest manipulate Lore and have her spy on the prince in order to determine just who is killing the villages at the edge of the kingdom. We follow on from the events of the first book in this new one.
My Lucky #13 by Piper Rayne (Kindle)-- A hockey player who is going through a scoring draught is worried he's going to get traded before the deadline if he doesn't turn it around. Following a New Year's Eve with a woman, he has a waterfall of goals and knows he has to see her again. She wants nothing to do with him and he feels his has to change her mind. A hero falls first sounding story that I'm so looking forward to. I will say that there's a very obvious hockey error in the synopsis of this one and we all know I'm a little picky about hockey details. But I'll try to keep an open mind on this one.
Just Do This One Thing For Me by Laura Zimmerman (Library)-- I'm going to pull the synopsis straight from GoodReads since it's a Mystery/Thriller and those are hard to explain at the best of times: "'Just do this one thing for me.' Drew's mother says it more often than good morning. Heidi Hill has been juggling shady side hustles for all of Drew's seventeen years, and Drew knows that 'one thing' really means all the necessary things her mother thinks are boring, including taking care of her fifteen-year-old sister and eight-year-old brother. In fact, Drew is the closest thing to a responsible adult they've ever known. When their mother disappears on the way to a New Year's Eve concert in Mexico and her schemes start unraveling, Drew is faced with a choice: Follow the rules, do the responsible thing, and walk away--alone--from her mother's mess. Or hope the weather stays cold, keep the cons going, and just maybe hold her family together."
