Review: Traitor (Last to Leave Book 1) by Nicole Blanchard

Review of Traitor (Last to Leave Book 1) by Nicole Blanchard



Peyton is finally feeling inspired. She's finally managed to get herself out of the home that was a prison. A prison where her family lived last and where Peyton feels as if she should have perished, too. When she stops in the town that has inspired her, she's met with a grumpy, fierce inn owner, Ford. She's finally managed to get to a point where not all men scare her any longer, but there's something about the big, muscular Ford, with his commanding presence, that unsettles her. But luckily for her, he recognizes a fellow broken soul when he sees one, so when she witnesses a murder, he believes her, unlike everyone else in the town she just may settle in, if she can survive the terrorizing the killer plans on putting her through.


Ford is a broken man. He left the Marines under a cloud, and he knows this little town has its doubts about him. But he does what needs to be done, runs his inn without bothering anyone. And then the beautiful, but skittish Peyton invades his inn and his life, and suddenly he has a mission again - this time, to protect her from the killer no one else seems to believe exists. If he manages to seduce her into his bed a few times while protecting her, even better.


I loved Traitor! There's nothing better than two damaged souls coming together and healing each other, healing themselves while falling in love. Peyton is such a strong character, determined as hell to finally be free of her past. And when she finds Ford, I knew from their very first meeting that she'd bring him to his knees, and she did. As gently as possible, but he fell hard, and it was pretty amazing to read. And the mystery? On point! I never had a clue at all who the real villain was. Well done, Nicole Blanchard! Well done on the mystery. Well done on the entire story because it's the kind of romantic suspense I love best - fast paced, intriguing, layered, likable characters, and smokin' hot chemistry. I can't wait to read Cal's story next, Operator.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
