Description
Dear Listener,Just when you think it can’t get any worse, the universe seems to take that as a personal challenge. The Devil’s Backbone Society has their fingers everywhere. It’s more than a secret society―it’s a leash and a prison sentence. The elders insist it’s about making connections that will help you for the rest of your life, but what they don’t tell you is how long―or, in this case, short―your life might be.The society has already cost me―cost us. Blood. Sweat. Tears. Lives.Now, it may take more than what I have to give. A part of me wants to be here, wants to see this through to the end. But the rest of me? The rest of me worries that even if I watch my back, it won’t be enough. How do I protect them? How do I protect these handsome, crazy, over- the-top men that I’m falling for? How do I save them from the society and themselves? And more importantly, how do I save myself? Read more

Shocked and so good
I honestly didn’t expect this one to surprise me as much as it did! I thought I had things figured out, but nope! The twists kept me guessing, and I really enjoyed the ride. Definitely worth picking up if you like a good suspenseful read!

Not what you are expecting...
Format: Audiobook
This audiobook wastes no time pulling you deeper into danger. Watch Your Back sharpens the tension introduced earlier and raises the stakes in every possible way. The story is smarter, darker, and more intense, and the audiobook format makes it all hit harder. The narration perfectly captures the constant sense of threat and control running through the story. The female main character grows even more commanding here, and you can hear the confidence and calculation in every decision she makes. The men surrounding her remain complex and dangerous, each voice adding a different edge to the story and keeping the dynamic unpredictable. The plot moves fast but never feels rushed. Every interaction feels deliberate, every reveal calculated. The spice is there, but it serves the story rather than distracting from it, amplifying the power struggles and emotional tension instead of overpowering them. By the end, I was fully locked in and ready for more. This audiobook delivers suspense, chemistry, and sharp storytelling in a way that keeps you listening nonstop. If you enjoyed Dear Reader, this one is a must.

Hold on to your heart and grasp on reality with both hands....this is a psychological rollercoaster!
Format: Kindle
ALWAYS check the trigger warnings!! I should have said that for book #1 review because the cliffhanger was shocking. I was an emotional wreck for a good portion of this book... but I never read the trigger warnings and not knowing what I am walking into always makes it better and the shock value more intense!... For me at least. From beginning to end Tate James takes you on an emotional rollercoaster with so many twists, dips, and turns. I feel like a squishy dog toy with the squeaky just ripped out. Is that going to prevent me from reading You're Next (trilogy conclusion)? No, in fact, I am segueing immediately. The cliffhanger just smacked me full speed into a closed door and I must open it, NOW! 😰 This is a psychological thriller embedded into a reverse harem romance. 4 🌶️ spice 🥵 with more spice than plot but the plot / political intrigue / psychological warfare is so top tier it feels more balanced. And now I need to speak to my therapist....

Dear author, I'm stating to think you hate me. You took my heart made me love them and now you have ripped my heart out and shred it! I am calling my doctor all this bc you also have me waiting 4 to 5 weeks for hopefully the conclusion to this masterpiece! I wanted to write this like that dang diary but I just can't continue! Do what?!?! That ending....woman are you a kidding me? I am repeating I my head it's just like last time heath is not dead and this is all made up?!?!? Now, I am suspicious of everyone but mainly Nats mom and what the heck nat? I mean you pour your heart out and then slam an ice pick in my girls heart? I just have to relax and wait wver so patiently for this to all work out! I'm sorry ladies stop clutching your pearls but all the sex was needed to show how in love these boys are for Spark, squirrel, ashes! If the smexy times aren't shown with all their glory how would you know Nat is going green with envy? Which is why his betrayal is making me want to vomit! I believe he has a plan to keep her safe! The DB games/parties got kinda boring for me. I thought for sure someone was gonna be unalived at that war of paint party! Her getting 50,000 and paying of her debt and then thanking nat was touching. They had great, authentic moments of hate and sincerity. I'm rooting for him now! But his on thin ice bub! Now, as for as Carter, heath and roycey...Roycey is my fave! Carly the bff is so interesting and alive....her character jumps off the pages, love all her scenes...we need to know more about this boyfriend and his brother 🔥! Ashley mom and dad I'm just ewww I don't know how this serves the story? I wish we knew more about Ashley's dad bc she loves him so much. I sense she adores him more bc he was not around and the mom is chopped liver. Mac is interesting but now I'm suspicious of him too. I mean duh joycelyn is carinas stalker!!! Hello! Royces incarcerated mom is also suspicious now to me too! What a ride! I usually despite ya college books but this has enough story and mystery that I love it! I have not given a 5 star rating in ages!!!! Please hurry and finish this last book! We need it!

Wild ending!!
Format: Paperback
Book two starts off right where we left off. I wasn’t crazy about the layout of the first five chapters, no spoilers but you’ll understand once you get there. The book held true to Tates style full of why choose madness 🥵 a little less fun banter since Carly played a smaller role in this book. Loved seeing more unravel from each of our MMCs, still not sure what I think of all the parents just yet. Who knew Heath was going to have such a hot temper?! Didn’t see the duck moment in the forecast! The ending… WILD!!

I don’t know what Tate James puts in these books but HOLY HELL!!! Book 2, Watch Your Back, in the Devil’s Backbone series is SO FREAKING GOOD!! Literally read it all day. And it pulls you right back in from page one until you literally have to tell yourself to put it down! It’s dark, Spicy Why Choose, Enemies-to-Lovers, Secret Society romance, Step-brother and his three best friends and it will take you one emotional ride! I loved book 2 because we get to know so much more about each of our characters. And they go on when hell of a ride in this book! We learn more about the Devil’s Backbone society and it’s role. Ashley~such a fierce girl, lover her character! And these men. When they decided to go all in, Royce, Carter and HEath are everything…………. Nate, it’s a love/hate relationship with him for me! Underneath it all I believe he is a boy that just wants to be loved! I love we get to watch Ashley and her boys as they grow their relationships both together and as couples. The spice, ughhhhhhh, so many hot, burn your Kindle scenes. There is so much the whole way through of what is really going on, who is behind what and the cliffhanger will literally leave you needing therapy! I honestly don't know what to fully say except you MUST go read this series ASAP! I’ll say it once again. I LOVEEEE dark/college/why choose romance and this book, this series is everything! One of the best of 2025 and will definitely forever be on my favorites! GO READ THIS BOOK!!!!!

What?,
Format: Kindle
What kind of ending was that? On one hand I don't believe a word the 'doctors are saying but on the other there's that, What if? I'm so confused. Moving on, the plot in of itself is interesting and I still think Carly plays some part in the manipulation and everything. Though this one did have quite a bit of filler chapters and was slow plot wise. Also to me personally the chemistry between Carter, Heath, Royce and Ashley did feel forced at times. Also they're very lust driven towards her. Nate though, the chemistry doesn't seem forced at all, well to an extent. The romace in this story so far in my opinion at least isn't it's strong suit. I don't have much to say about Book 2 if I'm being honest. Book 2 wasn't bad but it wasn't 'oh my god' good. Also I'm guessing because Nate had been saying he wanted to 'get rid of' Ashley, I'm thinking the papers shes signed really were papers saying Nate was her Medical Power of Attorney. Because the whole prenup reasoning doesn't really make sense since they were only 'engaged'. So Nate definitely has something to do with this. Also I'm thinking Abigal and Nate's mom are one and the same person and obviously Nate's mom is Ashley mom's stalker. All in all, 3/5 ⭐️
