Blurb
He's supposed to help me get revenge, but all I want to do is get him naked.

Emma
I lost my high-powered legal career and my boss-slash-boyfriend to one of my clients.

It's hard not to hold a grudge, particularly since he destroyed me to conceal his white collar crimes. Worse, his new girlfriend is a social media influencer who's flooding the internet with their supposed happiness. It doesn't help that I've moved back in with my eccentric mother and am pretending to enjoy redecorating her mansion.

I end up telling my new brother-in-law all about my problems over a flask of whiskey after our siblings' wedding. He looks like trouble and talks like it too, so I'm not surprised when he tells me the only way to get over such a slight is to get even.

What does shock me is that he wants to help.

Seamus
I've never been much good for anyone, so I figure I might as well be a little bad for a good cause.

Emma's a strong woman who's forgotten her strength. I'd like to remind her of her power. And, sure, I'd like to do other things, too, but even I know better than to seduce my own sister-in-law. My sister is married to her brother, so any bad decisions we make will be impossible to escape.

Still...something tells me it would be worth it.

**A standalone in the Unlucky in Love series**

MY REVIEW


Emma and Seamus are back in each other's lives again now that she's living with her mother while taking refuge from her life. She lost her job, her awful ex who was her boss, and now she's back here just trying to keep her head above water. When her new brother-in-law keeps popping up, she can't resist getting close, even though she knows it's a bad idea. Sometimes the bad boy is soooo good he can't be resisted.


Seamus too just knows he can't be involved with his sister's sister-in-law, but how can he resist? There's something so alluring about her and he's finding himself thinking about her more than he's comfortable with. He wants to comfort her, protect her, even *gasp* love her. But he has a past she can't possibly be accepting of. He can't tell her if he wants to keep her. But he can't keep lying. He has a choice to make and it's going to hurt either way.


Seamus the reformed bad boy, Emma the strong, but feeling broken heroine really should not have made such an awesome couple, but they so did. They had a slow burn that practically singed my Kindle, but their emotional connection was even stronger. There were some serious secrets buried between the two, and finding them out was a bit heartbreaking for them both. I wanted to hug them both - her for the pain her ex caused her, and Shay for the pain his past caused him and the guilt he still felt for that past and the decisions he had to make. But don't think it was all pain and secrets, because Nicole was along for the ride, and when she's around, things are 100% going to be chaotic in hilarious ways. I've been totally loving this series, but I think Emma and Seamus have all the other couples beat, they're definitely my favorite so far.

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...
