There's something fishy here!
*read on KU. No need of sugar daddies called promo teams*
This is my first book by Shane Morgan! It's unlike what I usually read. I would say this is a clean/sweet romance? Now that that's out of the way, let's get to this mysterious and suspenseful story! I loved the chemistry between the two main characters. From the beginning to the end, they kept going through things that left us wondering WTF IS GOING ON. This ends in a cliffhanger that I had not expected. JA ...more

This was a good romantic suspense. It was a little slow going in the beginning for me, a little too descriptive and more explaining than feeling like it was conversations, but about halfway through it really changed. The characters became real and wondering who was making these attempts on their lives was really pushing me to read more and faster. It has a great storyline and that cliffhanger?! Yeah I really need the next book! I did not see that coming.

Shane Morgan know exactly how to write a suspenseful but romantic story! Trisha is a strong leading lady. She is easy to love as a main character. Alexander is successful, humble and also a bit broken. This book kept me guessing the entire time. Once I thought I had it figured out, another twist. I am a sucker for a good cliff hanger and this one was totally unexpected! I can’t wait for the second book!!

First its the writing that puts you off. It seems forced without depth, like a hastily written narrative where the author struggles to bring in literary elements to distinguish it from common speech.
'The organ in my chest is picking up speed even now, and my skin is turning warm.'
Sometimes it borders on cringe.
'Talk about blessed with a desirability that freezes you in place and extracts the air from your lungs.'
Secondly, you have the characters, Trisha and Alexander. They lack chemistry and the ...more

I am shocked!
The cliffhanger shocked me! I read a lot of suspense and normally I’m not surprised by the conclusion or cliffhangers but this one got me! I really enjoyed Alexander and Trisha’s relationship it was sweet, steamy, and most importantly real. I liked that they didn’t immediately fall into bed together. I love Trisha’s friends and her mom, I would’ve liked to see more of them. This was a fun ride that keeps you wondering. I have my suspicions but I still can’t go hurt out the bigger p ...more
