Review: Wicked Secrets: Ashley's Story (Scandalous Billionaires #7) by Lisa Renee Jones


Wicked Secrets: Ashley's Story (Scandalous Billionaires #7) by Lisa Renee Jones is available NOW!



A sexy, suspenseful standalone...

There is a moment we all secretly crave, the moment when we look into another human's eyes, and feel the world spin beneath our feet. And it happened to me. I fell in lust and love, and everyday with him was passion and happiness. He was the other half of me and I trusted him more than I trusted myself at times. Then the truth came out and the truth was that he'd lied about his identity. He was not the man I thought he was at all. He was dangerous, so very dangerous, and I soon learned that I'd been a dove in a wolf's mouth, trusting I wouldn't be eaten alive.

The truth is that hiding would have been smart, I know this, of course, I know. But I wasn't giving up my life for a man who likely used me as a cover. He wouldn't be back and certainly didn't care that I was glass, slowly shattering inside, never healing, bleeding and bleeding some more.

Then one day it happened.
He came back.

Ashley's story - you met her in Dirty Boss, and now she's ready to tell her story. You do not need to read any book prior to this one.

Previously published as Dirty Rich Secrets.

MY REVIEW

Being in witness protection sucks, especially the part where it means Ashley is alone and in her feels. Her ex-fiancé betrayed her and disappeared, and now Ashley's a different person, living a life she never wanted. But what if everything they told her was wrong? What if Noah (Aaron) is back and taking her with him? Trying to prove they belong together and that he truly loves her? Does she believe him with her heart and go with him? Or go with her head and say goodbye?


Aaron is a determined man. He's been setup and his woman was taken from him. But he'll get her back, clear his name, and show her how real their love is, if it's the last thing he does. He just has to get them through this alive (and with a little help) first...


What a rollercoaster! Action-packed, filled with lies and secrets, and the ever deepening physical and emotional connection between Ashley and Aaron, I was on the edge of my seat the whole way through. Walker Security is along for the ride, helping the way they do best, after some convincing that Aaron could trust them, and it made me smile to read them again. Aaron kinda pissed me off more than once, but Ashley is awesome! I was rooting her on the whole time, and was so glad she got her happy ever after at the end.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
