But the prize to unlock the chapters are expensive. I’d wish they would put together a well defined prizes for each novel. Kindle unlimited you don’t have to deal with unlocking and prize is reasonable. ### 2/5 — Bernice Schuckert *2026-05-30, version 2.9.1* How do I get into the App ### 2/5 — Not worth it anymore *2026-02-06, version 2.7.0* When I first downloaded the App, you could save up your points, to add them up. For example, at one point I had over 10,000 points, was able to choose more books, read a little in each book or read b further in a current one. Now you can’t do that. Your points expire so you’re forced to read the book in a time frame and/or buy coins. It’s not worth it anymore ### 3/5 — Bonus keep disappearing *2026-02-06, version 2.7.0* I love reading the books on this site. But lately I’ve been having issues with my points disappearing. It such a pity to miss out on such good novels. I can’t handle the hassle of fighting for my lost points anymore. ### 3/5 — $$ you pay for chapters. *2026-02-06, version 2.7.0* You pay more for chapters than you could pay for a good book. These stories goes on and on so does money. You don’t get to earn coins to use for it. ### 2/5 — Books are not completed *2026-02-05, version 2.7.0* The books are not completed. On a timed subscription I am very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Facebook *2026-01-01, version 2.6.0* Says read completely free on Facebook then wants money don’t get caught ### 1/5 — Fake Mate Beta rises to Alpha Heiress *2025-12-31, version 2.6.0* This is a ripoff, paid $50.00 aud & didnt even get a quarter through the book, total BS, don’t read their books just want the dollar & dont give a thought about you 😡 ### 1/5 — Not the best deal *2025-12-28, version 2.6.0* A Facebook ad story led me here. The first 10 short chapters were available to get me hooked. However, the coin purchases required to unlock the rest of the chapters seems excessive. Looking at the bulk unlock (which is suppose to be the best deal at 20%off) would run over $200 for one story!! I’m sure the goal is to get the users to sign up got the subscription model, but the costs are just not justified IMO ($40+/mo) ### 1/5 — It’s impossible to cancel this app there is no cancel button and they keep charging you monthly don’ *2025-12-24, version 2.6.0* Any app that doesn’t have a button to cancel it has a big problem this one is one of those I’m working on it and I’ve called up my credit card company but I’m not happy ### 1/5 — Not good *2025-11-03, version 2.4.1* They put the part to read free chapters so high up you can not use it. ### 1/5 — Dommage *2025-07-05* Il y a certaines histoires qui sont interessantes à lire malgré mais c’est extrêmement dommage de devoir payer pour lire. Surtout vu la traduction qui n’est pas toujours clair. C’est bien beau d’harceler les gens par vos pub sur tiktok mais si c’est pour ce genre de service on peut s’en passer. ### 2/5 — Lecture en français *2025-05-08* Bonjours j ai fini de lire mon livre je voulait en prendre un autre mais j ai eu la surprise de voir qu il était tous en anglais es qu il en auras encore en français merci ### 3/5 — Évasion *2025-04-04* De beaux romans permettant l’évasion. Cependant cela reste cher pour lire. De nombreuses défaillances du système peut être un irritant ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Most expensive reading app ever *2026-07-15, version 2.11.0* Tho the books might be good no one who is sane is going to pay nearly £50 a month to read when kindle is only 9.99 a month and has more books and choice ### 1/5 — Seriously? *2026-06-13, version 2.10.0* Ok. Time for truth. I haven’t downloaded this app and after reading reviews I’m not going to. I pay just under $70 A YEAR for a subscription and can read books that are mostly well written and I can choose the level of spice and the genre I desire. Y’all sound like money grabbers. There are far better apps than this one. I should know as I’m involved in 4 others. ### 1/5 — impossible to cancel *2026-06-07, version 2.9.1* total money grab. can not cancel ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-05-31, version 2.9.1* This is the worst app for service and quality. Customer service although they listen, do not do anything to correct the issues. You will find a multitude of typos in the books plus it is ridiculously expensive for what they offer. I would not recommend this app. ### 1/5 — Can’t cancel my subscription *2026-04-02, version 2.8.1* I’ve been trying to cancel my subscription for over a month and there is no where to do it. I’ve tried through chat, the app and my Apple account. This is a scam ### 1/5 — Fraudulent *2026-04-01, version 2.8.1* Won’t let me cancel subscription! Claims a cancel link is available but there is no link to cancel where they claim it should be. They refuse to cancel on their end. Do not use! ### 1/5 — Lies! Scam! NOT FREE! *2026-03-15, version 2.7.0* Says all chapters free - not so! False advertising! Don’t waste your time. Deleting this ripoff app. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-02-08, version 2.7.0* Weekly payment and can not cancel. I need a refund now. ### 1/5 — Finding my shine after the betrayal *2026-01-19, version 2.7.0* The book is excellent from what I was able to read but they trick into paying 20.00 for full access membership then stop mid book and ask for more money. Don’t fall for it. It’s sickening the way they extort you. ### 1/5 — Feel a bit miffed and scammed really. *2026-01-12, version 2.6.0* I write this review hoping the creators of the app may read it and take into account the criticisms and fix them probably won’t happen though. Don’t give me the option to watch 2 ads and unlock 5 chapters for free when the action never goes through but lo and behold it works when I’m collecting bonus check in points and extra coins. I love the story I’m currently reading so will get rid of the app after I’ve finished it or skipped to the end because I can’t stand apps that provide features that just don’t work. I feel scammed and I don’t really want to have to buy coins but I will have too. Fix the free chapter issue and maybe my opinion might change. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great stories *2026-08-11, version 2.12.0* I’ve enjoyed reading through this App. It has many interesting novels. I enjoy the full length stories best ### 5/5 — Ministry *2026-06-18, version 2.10.0* Good stories to read ### 5/5 — Sorry Alpha, I don’t want to be your Mistress *2026-05-15, version 2.9.1* Good character development and story telling, ### 5/5 — Reading for fun *2026-04-13, version 2.8.1* I love to read a good book about someone else’s experience ### 5/5 — Crowned by the man they feared *2026-02-09, version 2.7.0* I love this storyline very much still waiting for more episodes. Please post some soon. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-08-25, version 2.3.0* I love this App, but I updated to the new version offered 2.3.0 and some of the books I was reading with the previous version disappeared. Very disappointed. How can I get my books back?? I look for them with the new version but they don’t Show. Books name “Endless Love” “Tender Love” “”His and Hers” “. Super Daddy CEO” can they be put back on this new version?? ### 5/5 — Alpha *2024-12-22* Sehr gute Story ### 5/5 — Bug *2024-10-07* Bonjour, je voulais savoir, j’ai un bug sur mon application je ne peux pas ouvrir le livre ni les chapitres ce problème n’ai toujours pas réglé ### 5/5 — I hate this App-Very hard to Navigate *2024-07-23, version 1.5.1* There isn’t anything worth reading on this app- I tried to find a short story- less than 100 chapters- but that seems near impossible. AND the stories aren’t very professional- lots of typos- grammar isn’t ideal- not worth even the free token they MIGHT give you each day. (I check in EVERY day but sometimes they skip my days and kick me back to zero. MANY BETTER APPS OUT THERE. Only give it 1 star- but we all know how underhanded 1Star ratings are- they’ll disappear to make the app look good. ### 5/5 — Problem *2024-04-15* Unable to open App since27 days --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
