Devoted: Part One
"There are two types of women in this world. The ones you take home for a night, and the ones you take home to your Mama. Now, I haven’t ever been sipping tea and eating biscuits with anyone’s mother. "
Brianna Hendricks has lived a wild life full of fast men and fun nights. That is, until her best friend Kendra Cole settled down and moved on from her job at the diner. Now Brianna is feeling left behind. In a dead end job, with no education, and nearing thirty, her options seem to be narrowing by the day.
Nearly two years after they met at the Zervion MADD Art Auction, billionaire Bradley Sheppard waltzes back into Brianna’s life…literally. After asking her to dance, a whirlwind romance begins. However, Brianna wants more than a few nights of heat and passion. She wants stability. She wants a promising future. She wants Bradley.
But, can Mr. Sheppard commit to Brianna as he’s promised? Or will his dual life in another city destroy the only relationship that Brianna has ever had?
**This is Book One of a 3-Book series. Part Two will be out in the next couple weeks. **

Sadie Black has done it again. What an amazing series. If you have read series “Indebted” you will already know the characters. This is Brianna’s story, well Brianna and Bradley that is. If you have not read Indebted then do now worry. This is a standalone series and you will not feel lost.
In this book you find a little more about Brianna and what her life was like growing up. She really suffered some pain. I can not imagine harboring the deep pain and guilt she must of felt all those years. Had to be really hard.
Brianna is a strong beautiful woman, one that Bradley can’t get off his mind. He had been thinking of her for over 2 years when they met at an art show. Seeing her for the first time in 2 years made him feel alive. There was not way he was letting her go this time.
Bradley had a huge secret that he was keeping. He was being pulled away unexpectedly from time to time. The question is can Bradley and Brianna’s new relationship survive with him keeping his secret?
I have to say I was not expecting the surprise that was coming at the end of the book. But that is one thing I love about this author is she keeps you on your toes.. I can not wait to find out what happens next.. So loved this book.

My personal rating would be a 2
I've said it over and over again, you can't act or in this heroines case , be a "ho" and seem proud of it and then get upset if /when you think your not being treated like a lady. I couldn't finish it. I won't be reading the next installment. Very disappointed in this book.

This is a carry over from "Indebted". This book tells us about Kendra's friend. Brianna is an intelligent woman who has not found her way. Hanging around her friend Kendra brings her to meet the most important person in her life. Bradley shows Brianna how important she is and how life can change.

BRAVO!!
I was holding my breath waiting to see if this series is as good as Indebted, and I wasn't disappointed. I look forward to reading the next two books in this series. Ms Black is a great writer.

I received this ARC for an honest review!
It is no secret that this writer is very talented with amazing results displayed in this book.
A wonderful book of Bradley and Brianna''s story is off to a great start if they are willing to build something out of this rocky beginning can't wait to find out Sexy Billionaire meets feisty women and he doesn't know what hit him yet. After 2 Years, Bradley couldn't
get Brianna out of his mind. Brianna is a very close friend to Kendra in Indebted series. If you haven't read it please do so this book will flows and provide history between these two. Although this book is a standalone, I recommend. Brianna had a harsh life coming up and she suffered deeply, Bradley had a huge secret that he was keeping. He has being pulled away unexpectedly from time to time to check on his daughter(Brooklyn) who is living with her mentally I'll mother. A great author writes amazing supporting characters to not only suck us in to the story, but to truly bring out the personalities in the main characters making you feel like you can relate and want to be living in their world. I'm curious to know how Bradley will handle the news Brianna's going to give him? Great Job Sadie

Mama Drama
This is a different twist than I though. Brianna had a one night stand two years ago with a man called Bradley. Two years later they meet again at her best friend wedding. This book move pretty fast asleep together on that first night after two years. He's keeping a lot of things from her about is his baby mama drama . Every time Brantley turns around he had hop on the plane and go to the rescue for his daughter in a different state. All of a sudden Brianna becomes pregnant she does not know how to break the news to Bradley. All of them is he's dealing with baby mama drama so we will see how it is in book number two.
