Publisher's summary

Bow or bleed.

A decision all Noir angels must make.

Because I’m their king.

It wasn’t my choice. I assumed the position after the prisoners of this nightmare reformatory went after my mates.

Auric is my commander, even if I’m the one giving the orders. He worships the dukedom, the princess, soon to be our queen.

Layla is my crown, my purpose, the sheer essence of life.

She’s the key.

The key to unlocking the darkness in my soul. There is no reform. No restitution. Only retaliation and fear.

I’ll decorate my throne with the broken wings of my enemies. Their blood will run like a river, a red carpet at my feet.

The games have just begun. The players have been cast.

And in this world of darkness and sin, all will bow to their king.

Authors' note: Noir Reformatory is a ménage dark fantasy romance spanning six novels. There will be cliff-hangers, adult situations, violence, and MM/MF/MMF content.

Wow!!

Talk about a plot twist!
Just WOW!
I’m so invested in this series and in Layla’s “fall” I couldn’t hit stop or pause the entire time!

Add on the incredible cast of narrators and it was perfect!!

Hot hot hot!

4.5 stars. In a new location, with limited resources and unknown enemies lurking in the shadows, Layla, Novak, and Auric are left trying to figure out what their next move is, and what exactly the end game is. Overall, this book serves as a strengthening of the bonds between the triad, as well as learning more about the Noir, who they are, what they are, where they really originate. It also tests who can be trusted - old alliances, new alliances, betrayals, bombshells, and revelations. There’s a lot of action, both in and out of the sheets. The steam ramps up a good amount in this book. A solid story to move the overarching plot forward, with some more world building and plenty more ground to cover. The ending throws in a twist that I was literally squealing about, and could be so much fun for the next book, I can’t wait!

Simply epic

The talent that Lexi and Jennifer have is unmatched. They draw you into a tangled web of world building, emotions, and heat. Second Offense was no different. Stunning, both in words and performance. It utter brilliance. Can’t wait for more!

Trust me: read this series IN ORDER ...

꒰ঌ ໒꒱ Embarked on this one after re-binging the prequel and First Offense. I swear, the more I read from this pair, the more I love them.

꒰ঌ ໒꒱ Reading book 1, it dawned on me that this series very much depicts those in power keeping those not in power enslaved—and the lengths to which they’ll go to keep them oppressed and unaware of the amount of power they actually possess. So … not so different than the real world, just depicted with angels.

꒰ঌ ໒꒱ Absolutely epic, pulled off brilliantly. The reader knows more than some characters at any given moment, as we’re treated to multiple POVs, and it is FAST-paced and exhilarating. I am fairly certain I will re-binge this series every time a new book comes out and then … still repeatedly in completion once it’s over.

This book has no shortage of:

⛓️ Amazing writing.
🪶 Scandal / betrayal / espionage
⛓️ Drama
🪶 Found family
⛓️ Mystery
🪶 Action (of all types)
⛓️Dystopian vibes
🪶 Royals
⛓️ A small, oppressed people actively working to rise above.
🪶 An extremely juicy twist that both First Offense and the prequel have led up to beautifully.


Ends on a wicked cliffie—
Don’t worry. For one thing, it’s absolutely juicy and worth it.
For another, Third Offense is available in print, eBook and audio, so no need to die waiting for it.

And so much more. Highly recommend.
ALL the stars.

Sci-Fi meets Fantasy

This is a unique paranormal romance with great twists, smoldering character connections, and high speed suspense. It is narrated with voices that I could listen to all day, oops I sort of did and accomplished absolutely nothing. I can’t wait for more.

I CANT WAIT

IM SORRY. WHAT JUST HAPPENED!? How am I supposed to wait for the next book! I am dying over here! So much action but drowning in adoration and trust! I was on the edge of my seat! This series does not disappoint! Dive in to the world of yummy angels again!

This series keeps getting better

I Love Novak…(insert twinkly eyes)
Ok, I don’t know how Ms Foss does her world building, but she just keeps blowing my mind! I love everything about this series fans and, of course, she left me wanting soooo much more!!! (Gimme, Gimme, Gimme)
She chose the most perfect narrators for this series, they make the book come to life in your ears. Each narrator does an individual voice, I don’t know if I have a favorite, which is fine. They’re all amazing.
I Highly suggest you start this series at the beginning or you won’t get the full effect

Great Narration and Story!!

Love the narrators, especially Kale Williams. The twists in the story are interesting and it’s fast paced!!

Wait, What?!! That was unexpected!

This book totally threw me for a loop in the end. So fair warning, this has a doozy for a cliffhanger! I want Third Offense and I want it NOW! I’m not very patient when it comes to waiting for a sequel. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Second Offense picked up right where First Offense left off with the Reformer continuing to play his little games with both trios. His little gift had more than peeked the interest of Layla and her mates, Novak and Auric and they want answers. However, the answers they got were more than they bargained for. The tension within the groups had me on edge throughout the read but it continued to strengthen the mating bonds even more.

Just when I thought the final twist was revealed…BOOM…..Here’s another and WOW….How will this pan out?!!

The narrators did a fantastic job bringing this story to life and portrayed each character perfectly.

What talent Lexi has!!! Is the next book ready yet?????!

Noir Reformatory

Love all the spice in this book! The ending blew me away, i did not see thay revelation coming but love it. I am never disappointed by these fantastic authors. I absolutely love all of the narrators.
