Dylan intrigued me after I met him in "Wilder Love" and I was so exited to read his story. 😍
This is the second book, but it can certainly be read as a stand-alone. 💜

Dylan St. Clair is the mysterious bad boy with the dirty mouth (yum!) and heavy burden on his shoulders. 💣
Although he grew up with nothing and suffered his whole life from people who saw him as not good enough, Dylan managed to build himself - and now at 27, he's r ...more

Hi Emery Rose, nice to meet you, I'm your newest fan.

I was so here for this book. It was the perfect forbidden/taboo romance. It was so well balanced, the right amount of drama and angst counterbalanced by an interesting plot with complex characters and many sweet moments.

Scarlett was a delight to read about. She had a strong personality and the attitude to back them up. Dylan was a classic brooding hero, but you couldn't help but root for him.

Gah, I just really liked this.

"Dylan St. Clair was about as emotionally available as a rock cliff. The one I was about to throw myself off, praying there would be a safety net to catch me.
There wouldn't be. I already knew that too."

After reading "Wilder Love" which i can assure you it was an amazing reading, i was kind of obsessed with broody Dylan with the bad boy attitude and i was craving his story...

Overall Opinion: Phew! This felt like a mess to me. There were many times that I should have probably thrown in the towel but didn’t. I guess I was just intrigued by the potential for ex/sister drama — I know, I know I’m bad! But I like that sorta stuff sometimes 🙈😏. I was confused by the many references to side character stories that made me question if this was a standalone a few times. There was just too much focus on them and summarizing, or giving totally unnecessary details about ...more

…to Dylan, I was just his ex-girlfriend’s little sister. Nothing more.

Dylan St. Clair was chaos. And chaos always left a trail of destruction in its wake. I just never expected it to be my heart he destroyed.

…to Dylan, I was just his ex-girlfriend’s little sister. Nothing more.

Dylan St. Clair was chaos. And chaos always left a trail of destruction in its wake. I just never expected it to be my heart he destroyed.

“I pick the wrong sister.”
…I picked the wrong sister.
There was nothing right about this. Except for the way he made me feel.

We were a cautionary tale of why you should never cross the lines of friendship.

Emery Rose writes an emotionally complex tale that is absolutely stunning. I’m still recovering from reading her words, and I can say that she’s surpassed my every expectation. Sweet Chaos offers readers an intense storyline full of angst, vivid imagery, and unsurpassed passion. Moreover, the story is also insanely hot. Dylan and Scarlett were downright combustible. Their sizzle will straight up ignite your kindle—and likely your panties! Honestly, it’s my advice that when you pick this one up you either have your spouse on standby or your batteries charged! 😉

…I chuckled soundlessly at the words painted on her T-shirt: I’m A Little Fucking Ray Of Sunshine.
Damn right she was. The whole damn place lit up when she walked in the door. Her skin had a peachy glow like it did after a good surfing session. She looked downright edible.
Baby sister was all grown up. Small and ripe, curvy in all the right places, with pillow-soft lips so fuckable it should be illegal. She looked like the love child of Deborah Harry and Mick Jagger.

I can’t begin to review this book with the level of skill that Emery put into writing Sweet Chaos. This is an author that will not only have you reading her books once, but repeatedly. If you’re anything like me you’ll be binge reading everything she offers as quickly as you can get your hands on the books. I can’t stress this enough—Emery Rose is exceptionally talented. Her storytelling was truly captivating—I’ve literally never highlighted as many quotes or passages in any book I’ve read. Also, something that I’ve rarely experienced is the level of skill she’s shown in developing the characters in Sweet Chaos. Particularly Dylan’s character. Sweet Chaos had some of the best character progression I’ve read in years. In my experience, the growth her characters showed is something you’d (often) need two books minimum to deliver. Yet, Emery does so brilliantly in one book. I can not tell you how much I loved reading Sweet Chaos. Five-stars does not do this book justice and I can not recommend it enough. Dylan and Scarlett will live on after you’ve turned the last page and you’ll undoubtedly have discovered a new favorite author, much like I have!

Quotes:

I’d seen his smile. It was rare. Fleeting. But it was glorious. Back when I was just a stupid kid, I used to try to coax it out of him, like it was a prize to be won.

He’d gotten into a fight over me, after beating his opponent in the underground fight. I remembered thinking that nobody had ever fought for me before. That was the night I’d fallen in love with Dylan... It was also the night I realized that he would never be mine and I needed to forget him.

Scarlett Woods… she was the sweetest temptation. I slowly dragged my thumb across her plump bottom lip and wiped off the chocolate. Her breath hitched, and her eyes followed my thumb to my mouth. Eyes locked on hers, I wrapped my lips around my thumb and sucked the chocolate off it. “So fucking sweet.”
Her eyes flared. “What are you doing?” she hissed.
Moving my mouth close to the shell of her ear, I whispered, “You deserve better.”
Without waiting for a response, I strode away. Even by my low standards, it was wrong to mess with my ex-girlfriend’s little sister.
But when had I ever done the right thing?

I wasn’t sure when it had happened, but baby sister had become the stuff of my wet dreams.

Dylan St. Clair was about as emotionally available as a rock cliff.

Kissing Scarlett didn’t feel like the prelude to sex, it felt like the main event. I wanted to kiss her until her lips were raw and swollen, and the only word on the tip of her tongue was my name.

I wanted to build a shrine to her pussy. Worship at the altar of Scarlett Woods.

Scarlett brought out all my protective instincts, always had.

She made me wish for something I’d never wanted before. To be the hero in someone’s fairy tale instead of the villain.

He was the perfect storm. Wild. Unpredictable. Impossible to tame or control. A thing of beauty that could wreak havoc. Destroy you if you got too close.

3.5 STARS After meeting Dylan in the first book, I was definitely eager to read his book, especially when I found out it would be with him and Sienna's little sister. Total shocker there since I thought we would get his toxic relationship with Sienna. And don't get me wrong I liked the story, I just wish it would've been on a deeper level. I didn't always get the forever kind of love vibes. I would've liked flashbacks to when Scarlet was younger and her interactions with Dylan. Maybe that would' ...more

This book is a follow on from one of my fave reads of 2019, Wilder Love. Dylan St Clair is the twin brother of Remy (heroine of Wilder Love), brave, bold and protective of his sister, with a wild streak a mile wide, he is the quintessential bad boy, and he will absolutely own your heart!

Dylan has turned his life around and has made a name for himself, has all the money in the world but still believes he is undeserving.

Since the first book I already knew he was gonna be my fave. He had the bad boy thing going and i just... YES. Here we see his grown up side and jesus christ he is fcking HOT. AND SO SWEET. He was my favorite because we saw his upbringing and his growth. We got to see his character development since the last book and I just fcking love him.

Scarlett
Loved her. She wasn’t dramatic like her sister (fck her) and she just said what needed to be said. She was perfect for Dyl. Loved the fact that, even though she had a crush for him for decade, once they start hanging out she realizes it was a crush and just acts like a NORMAL PERSON. Loved that she set boundaries and wasn’t willing to give anything until she was ready. UGH. LOVED HER.

Conflict
This is where I got a little bit disappointed. I wished it wasn’t only about Sienna. I thought it was going to be a combination of Simon and Sienna. I was waiting for that moment where Scarlett chose Dylan and said to her parents “I love him, fuckers”. I CRAVED that. I needed that fulfilling moment. My boy Dyl deserved everything Sienna denied him. The real conflict was pretty meh honestly, not my favorite part of the book. But LOVED that dyl waited for Starlet to finish her stuff. He knew it was important to her, ughhh we love a thoughtful king.

Why not 5 stars?
- The conflict! Needed that moment!!!!
- The sexy scenes at the beginning weren’t suuuuper steamy. They got better, but I didn’t like them at first. They were weirdly described and too short heh.
- A bit between the 30-50% of the book felt dragged. Kinda boring, but I think that was just me. It wasn’t boring, per se, just slow.

Honestly, this was great. It had a great balance of everything. Loved it loved it loved it. Not like, the best thing I’ve read in my life, but an upgrade from the first. I’m so happy I stuck around. ...more

We loved Dylan already from Wilder Love with his sister Remy the man was just a boy and one that was so strong and determined and so broken but, no matter what age he was and no matter what he had to do he would do anything to see what he considered his was provided for and taken care of.I loved the growth we saw from Dylan this time around although still broken in a lot of ways he made some of his dreams come true and was becoming a little less broken every time he spent with Scarlett.

Scarlett was the rebel of her family and planned to live her life on her own terms.We found Scarlett to be strong ,independent,beautiful on the inside as well as out but, her one weakness was never putting herself first.We loved how she always believed in Dylan when others never did all they saw was a punk from the wrong side of the tracks what Scarlett saw was what was below the surface the good along with the bad.

The chemistry between Dylan and Scarlett was scorching.These two who came from totally different backgrounds fit perfectly together. I loved the story and how this couples journey was wrought with tons of things stacked against them but, Dylan was determined to beat the odds and claim the one thing that would complete his own happiness. I loved the broken bad boy he made my heart just melt when it came to loving and taking care of the people he loved most in this world. Dylan with little Kai melted my heart each and every time and had me wishing that Dylan would someday have everything that his twin sister had because he deserved it for all the sacrifices he made in life in the sake of family.

This was one heart felt tale that tugged at ones heart strings but, also was one of hope ,healing,forgiveness and family.

It was riveting and so addicting.

These characters are ones that you can feel through your every fiber. The author writes them in such a way that you feel everything. These characters felt like more than just characters in a book. The author makes them come alive in the story. Both Dylan and Scarlett were exceptional characters. They both had so many layers and were so full of depth and personality. Their character growth through the story was really amazing. The secondary characters are so vibrant. I loved seeing Remy and Shane again and I liked the newer secondary characters that were introduced. I hope that we are able to see more of them in other books.

The romance in this book was explosive. The idea of soulmates and kindred spirits really rings true for Dylan and Scarlett. There was so much messed up stuff in their lives but they were so unapologetically perfect for each other despite all of it. What I loved most about their romance was how they fought for one another and believed in one another no matter what. They had such swoon-worthy chemistry to top it all off.

Overall, this is a story that I felt deep in my bones. This is a story that will pull you in and capture your heart. This is a story that is full of heartache and just a gamut of emotions. But there is also love and acceptance. Finding the one person in the world that truly sees you. This series has been incredible and I just want to scream from the rooftops how much I love it!
