Keeping secrets will keep you isolated.

I couldn’t wait to become Slater’s wife and was anxious to begin planning our wedding.

After recovering from the horrific situation with Davin, everything was finally falling into place.

Until Eve showed up—a woman from Slater’s past he had refused to talk to me about.

When Eve gave little explanation on why she had left, I questioned her sudden reappearance. Why now? And what was she hiding?

Then Eve made us an outrageous offer, and though I felt threatened by her presence and was now unsure of my future with Slater, it was one that would be hard to refuse. Even if it jeopardized everything we had worked for.

Worse yet, if the secrets she held close were revealed, could our relationship survive them?

Keeping secrets will isolate you. I couldn’t wait to become Slater’s wife and was anxious to begin planning our wedding.

With a start like that I knew the book had to be amazing. Book 1 had me hooked and so I had to read this one and Ms Grant did not disappoint. I love following Sabela's life and could not put this book down. Steamy, romantic, surprising (yes, did not see that twist coming!) and I kept switching between hating Eve and trying to understand her.

I read the book quickly and my only regret is finishing it...now I have to wait for Book #3 in the Sabela Series - Claire - if only Ms Grant would write faster! #fivestars #Eve #lovethisbook

Tina Hogan Grant has done it again!!

Just when I didn't think it could get any better Eve came along!

Eve had everything I was looking for in a book!
It played at my emotions and just with a few pages I was pulled right into the storyline.

Also can we take a second to talk about the cover?! HOT and just what I pictured in my head when it came to Eve.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a well-written story, interesting plot and amazing characters!

I can't wait to read more on the Sabela series!!

I was given an advance copy by the author for a fair and honest review

Amazing book! Such a heartfelt read with plenty of steamy action. I couldn’t put it down. Sabela and Slater have started their own construction company, are engaged, and have their own place. They are getting by and getting their bills paid. When a great job falls into their lap that will pay for them to get married and live comfortably for a while, they jump on it. Never in their wildest dreams did they think it would be none other than someone from Slater’s past. Why did this person want them to renovate the house? What secrets did this person have? Accepting the job after the fact was a hard decision, but they decided to take it on. Sabela and Slater have an amazing relationship. Slater constantly reminds Sabela how much he loves her and only wants to be with her. An unexpected event happens and turns their life upside down. Bring on the issues because you will need them. Sabela is my hero because of the way she not only stuck by Slater’s side, but she was ready to take on what was put in front of her. With Sabela by his side, Slater is ready to take on the next chapter in their life.

Sabela and Slater thought they had their whole life planned until Eve came into the picture and turned their world upside down. Could this change be exactly what they needed?

I really enjoyed this story and the characters. This story kept me guessing, and rooting for Sabela and Slater. There are definately some explicit sex scenes in this book. While I don't normally enjoy that, I did not feel it impacted the wonderful story. I do have to warn you that this book will definately warm your heart and leave you in tears! I highly recommend this story.

This is the second book of the series but I can be read as a stand alone. Thank you to Author Tina Hogan Grant for allowing me to provide my honest opinion of this story.

I actually liked “EVE” better than the first book later. Slater and Sabella are happy and recovering from the turmoil with Gavin, As they are moving forward with the wedding plans, along comes Eve. Had me wondering about the upcoming wedding, would it change it? Our pasts can be detrimental to our futures if we don’t discuss them with our loved ones. Why was Slater reluctant to discuss his? Great 2nd book and now can’t wait to read book number three, Claire! I love how Tina brings the characters to life and as we read, we can see the sometimes similarities to our own lives. Great job Ms. Hogan! Looking forward to book #3 in the series.

After Sabela recovering from a horrible relationship with Davin, she couldn’t wait to marry Slater. A woman from Slater’s past showed up and wanted S&S to do renovations. Her name was Eve and the offer was to good to pass up. Eve was hiding something and when Sabela and Slater find out will their relationship last? Wonderful series.

Was excited to receive this steamy, second in series novel, as an Arc by/from the author and once again, I was delighted to read and get to the end.
Slater entered Sabela's life when she thought she had the time to "sip and savor" and partake in his essence, but his ex. Eve, had different ideas.
Sabela takes you with her to overcome her fears and insecurity about her relationship and what secrets the future holds. Highly recommended read!!!

EVE was definitely another page-turner by Tina Hogan Grant! Grant delivers a good balance of story and steam that will keep her readers interested in every chapter.
Sabela and Slater have reconstructed their lives after a terrible experience with one of Sabela's ex-boyfriends. They have formed a trusting relationship and are discovering similar interests in the bedroom.
The appearance of Eve, Slater's most memorable girlfriend, threatens to throw off their balance, when she shows up with an offer. Sabela is convinced Eve is hiding something, and she's determined to find it out.
Will Sabela and Slater be able to navigate through Eve's proposal and come out together on the other side?
I really enjoyed the book. In one of her interviews, Grant stated that Eve led the plot of the story after her appearance. However, the plot is seamless, so there are no hiccups for the reader.
Also, I like the plights of the secondary characters. It gives the reader a chance to meet the protagonists in some of the author's other novels.
I recommend the story for mature readers, as there are some sexual scenes.

The Sabela Series is hot, sexy and steamy. And book two of the series, Eve, continues with the author, Tina Hogan Grant fanning the fire which began in Slater! The main characters, Sabela and Slater are two of a kind—highly attractive, sexy, intense, focused. They embrace their sexual desires by carrying out and fulfilling their sexual fantasies. Through the author’s narrative the reader is given the opportunity to really see the way the two support each other, and more importantly, the respect shown to one another. Pleasing one another and assuring each other’s happiness is first and foremost on the other’s mind.

Eve can be read as a standalone and the reader will not be lost—but book one gives more insight into the story as a whole, and no stone is left unturned. The supporting characters are more prominent in book two of the series and the title—which so happens to be the name of the girl who broke Slater’s heart—enters the story and brings a tension filled twist to the plotline. The result confirms just how much we have grown to love these two main characters and how much we as readers crave a happy ending.

Review: “Eve” by Tina Hogan Grant
Sabela has survived the violence of her former lover, Davin and safely lives with Slater in the comforts of her mother’s home. Slater had become her protector and they complimented each other in a working environment. Sabela couldn’t be happier until the mysterious new client entered her life. It seemed like the perfect job that would pave the path to the next level for their lifestyle. But appearances can be deceiving. The shock of Slater’s past with Eve could destroy the bond between him and Sabela. After the last toxic relationship with Davin, does Sabela have another fight in her to stand up to Eve or Slater’s omissions of his life?
Tina Hogan Grant’s “Slater” is the second of the “Sabela” series. It reveals the consequences of one person’s secrets having a domino effect that may end up in tragedy. The author did a marvelous job of vivid descriptions with settings and characters. Her novel left me with tears of sorrow and joy. I highly recommend this gut wrenching Five-Star novel.
Will Sabela’s dream of marriage come true or can her and Slater accept the secrets from Eve that will forever change their lives?

“Eve” is the second book in Tina Hogan Grant’s Sabela Series, and it definitely delivers on emotion, drama, and plenty of heat. Sabela and Slater are now engaged and running their own construction company, but money is tight. When a well-paying job comes along, it feels like the answer to all their problems—until their new client brings secrets that shake everything up.

What I enjoy most about Grant’s writing is how she creates strong women who find themselves through tough situations. This book has that same theme, along with a relationship you really root for. Sabela and Slater support each other deeply, even when life throws a major emotional curveball at them.

Just a heads-up: the love scenes are very steamy and frequent, so if that’s not your thing, this might not be the book for you. But beneath the heat, there’s a solid storyline, likable characters, and a twist that adds real emotional weight.

I enjoyed it and look forward to seeing where the series goes next.

Absolutely another awesome book. From the title of the book to the last word in the story, I was hooked. Well written. The story line was easy to follow and the characters were well developed. I loved learning about Sabela and Slater. Lots of true love, a great sexual relationship, and a couple who worked hard and well together at their construction company. Getting a request from Eve to do work at her house is definitely a surprise to Slater to see his ex girlfriend. Sabela is shocked to learn Slater and Eve had a long ago relationship. So, why would she ask them to work on her house. As secrets are told your heart sinks and you will shed some tears. This is a must read book.

This is book two in the Sabela series. In this book, Sabela and Slater are finally getting over what happened to Sabela month before. And have started their own construction business. When they get a call from a potential new client, they are excite to start the job, as the money from it will set up their new business, and put them ahead. But then a face from the past shows up, in the form of Slaters ex, Eve. And she has an offer they would be stupid to refuse. But they are unsure of how much they can trust her. And Sabela is afraid, Eve being back could harm her relationship with Slater.

This was a wonderful story. I love these characters, and the relationship between Sabela and Slater is one to envy. They story had me interested from the first page, and I definitely wanted to keep reading to find out what was going on with Eve, and boy was I surprised. I definitely recommend this book. But I will say that if you’re not into some streams love scenes, and many of them, you might not enjoy this book. But it does have a good story line, and wonderful characters. Definitely looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

Wonderful story

After reading Slater, I knew this would be a great , steamy read. What I didn't expect was the emotional pull from Eve who comes back into Slater's life with a life altering bombshell.I really like that each chapter is the point of view of both the Main characters, Slater and Sabela and the relationship they have, has grown from the first book . Look forward to reading the next book in this series .

Mystery, steamy romance

Slater and Sabella have bought a house and started their own construction company and it seems to be off to a good start. They get an offer to do a large remodeling project on a house that happens to belong to Eve, the woman who broke Slater’s heart some years ago? What’s going on? What does Eve want? Very good book.

This is the second book in this steamy, suspenseful series! Sabela and Slater have started up a new business and things are wonderful for them. UNTIL...Eve, Slater's ex, shows up in the picture. Sabela is worried about what Eve really wants and why she has really shown up again. Great book! I highly recommend this and the others in the series!

Another great addition to the Sabela series. It took me a bit to get into this book, only because I expected there to be more drama or something with Eve. The ending was great and the twist was jaw dropping.

As the second book in the Sabela series, this one gets even hotter than the first. I couldn't believe some of the lies and deception tho thank goodness some people in this story are very forgiving. But a lot of things happened that I did not see coming at all . Awesome read, I just loved it !!!

Wow

That was a great book. I loved the story. You could tell through the entire thing that Eve was hiding something but that was a huge secret! I wasn't expecting that.
