Review / Release Blitz: In Between Duet by Amanda Cuff

Release Date: July 11

Happily engaged. Fulfilled by a lucrative career. Addison McCormick thought she had it all—until she caught her soon-to-be-husband cheating.

Forced to start anew, Addison decides a vacation is just what she needs to escape the wreckage of her life in LA, and serene Colorado is calling her name.

What she doesn’t expect to find is Chase Prescott: the sexy, brooding neighbor at the cabin she’s renting. She sees him as nothing more than a vacation boyfriend, a quick and dirty fling to help her get over her recent heartbreak.

But when that spontaneity leads to the surprise of her life, Addison discovers that Chase’s mysterious allure isn’t just a front, and that he has a secret that will change everything.

What happens when the fantasy they created crashes head-on with their harsh reality? Can Addison find her new place in a world she might not be welcomed?

MY REVIEW

All That Lies Between Us
Addison needs a breather after catching her fiancé cheating her and her father firing her and taking her fiancé's side. A vacation is just the thing for her and her friend, but a vacation fling? Could a fling with the gorgeous guy next door be the cure to what ails her? Or will it break her even more than catching her cheating fiancé and getting fired?

Chase is instantly attracted to the new woman in town, but he's got secrets, and it's those secrets that come back to bite him in the ass when things come to a close at the end of All That Lies Between Us. Just leaving Addison probably shouldn't have been his knee jerk reaction, but then again, his head's not in the right place now. Will he ever be able to redeem himself in Addison's eyes?

The cliffhanger was a doozy, and definitely kept me on edge waiting for the conclusion. I liked Addison but have to admit Chase is not my favorite character after having just left her with no word.


All That Lies Ahead
We get answers and Addison is privy to Chase's secret now. So what will she do, how will she react? Honestly, I felt for and wanted better for her than the bs Chase gave her. She handled everything like a saint. I know I wouldn't have reacted nearly as gracefully as Addison did. But I appreciated how strong she was and how much she had fallen for Chase, even if he didn't deserve her heart.

This duet is a rollercoaster of emotions, there's a theme running through it that life is short, so don't hold back your love if can. I admit to wanting better for Addison, but aside from my dislike of Chase, I liked this duet with its heart and the spectrum of feelings it evoked.

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...
