ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 18, 2020

Kace August: famous, intense, dark, addictive. Aria Alard: a woman with secrets, passion, and a dangerous past. Passion. Secrets. Mystery. Aria fell hard for Kace. She trusted him. But did he deserve that trust? And where is Gio?

A Wicked Song is the second book in the Brilliance Trilogy

••••••••

REVIEW:A WICKED SONG is the second instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult BRILLIANCE erotic, romantic suspense trilogy focusing on musician/violinist Kace August, and twenty eight year old collector Aria Alard. A WICKED SONG should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events of book one A RECKLESS NOTE. Several characters from the author’s Inside Out, Savage Trilogy and Walker Brothers series cross over for familiarity.

Told from first person perspective (Aria Alard) A WICKED SONG continues to follow the building romance and relationship between musician/violinist Kace August, and twenty eight year old collector Aria Alard. At the end of book one A RECKLESS NOTE Aria, believing her family heritage and her life on the run continues to remain a dangerous secret, quickly discovers that the man with whom she is falling in love knows more about her family than she could have ever imagined. Preparing for an upcoming concert with artist Chris Merit, Kace will come face to face with his own darkened past, a past that is desperate to destroy Kace’s relationship with our story line heroine, claiming betrayal and revenge, for sins of the past.

Meanwhile, Aria’s brother Gio is still missing. Presumably on the hunt for treasure with a woman whose identity remains a mystery to our story line heroine, Gio has not responded to Aria’s attempts at contact, and with this, Gio’s disappearance becomes Aria’s number one problem.

A WICKED SONG is a story of haunting secrets, issues of trust and heart breaking lies; betrayal and vengeance; relationships and love. The premise is spirited, edgy and intense; the characters are charismatic, energetic and flawed; the romance is intimate, erotic and provocative . A WICKED SONG ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

“I want you,” he says. “Just you.”“How do I know that?”

A low, frustrated sound escapes his lips and he drops the medication bag, and spikes fingers into my hair, a low curse escaping his lips. His eyes meet mine, and the depth of the emotion he then spikes in me steals my breath. Before I can catch it again, he’s breathing for me. His mouth slants over my mouth, his tongue licking a wicked, seductive note against my tongue. And despite my injured hand and my burdened heart, I melt the way I always melt for this man. I melt and I moan, and when he tears his mouth from mine, I am panting.

“That is how you know,” he declares. “We are connected, you and me. We both feel it.”

“All that says is that I want you and that I have the potential to be foolish because of that desire, but I won’t live up to that potential, Kace.”

“How do I know you aren’t after my money?”

I blanch. “Because I’m not. You know I’m not.”

“Can you prove it?”

“You know I’m not,” I repeat.

His hands come down on my shoulders and he pulls back to look at me as he says, “I do know you, but that still requires me trusting you and I’ve had plenty of reasons in my life not to offer you that trust. Reasons you don’t know. Many reasons, Aria. Many betrayals. But I give you my trust anyway. I’m not after the formula, but all I have to offer is my word. You have to decide if you trust me.”

My hand settles on his chest, and his heart beats a rowdy song beneath my palm. “I’m very confused right now,” I confess, and it’s as honest as I have ever been with him or me. “And my head is spinning.”

His hand covers my hand on his chest. “Then let me take care of you. Let me take you home.”

There is a library filled with books the size of all the reasons I should say no, but even as I have that thought, he says, “Don’t say no.”

Words he’s said to me every moment of indecision I’ve ever shared with him. And right or wrong, like every time before, I don’t say no. I say, “Yes.”

A Reckless Note (Brilliance #1) by Lisa Renee Jones-Review tour

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 23, 2020

Passion, seduction, and my family’s secret that could change everything. I went looking for my missing brother, but I found him: Kace August. He’s dark. He’s dangerous. He makes me want things I can’t have and brings me into a world of forbidden seduction. But I just can’t seem to walk away.

•••••••••

REVIEW:A RECKLESS NOTE is the first instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult BRILLIANCE erotic, romantic suspense series focusing on musician/violinist Kace August, and twenty eight year old collector Aria Alard. Several characters from the author’s Inside Out,Savage Trilogy and Walker Brothers series cross over for familiarity.

Told from first person perspective (Aria Alard) A RECKLESS NOTE follows musician/violinist Kace August, and collector Aria Alard. Aria Alard is a collector, a procurer of rare items and artifacts, including vintage wine and the Stradivarius violin. At a recent auction where a rare Stradivarius violin was supposed to be auctioned, Aria will meet violinist Kace August, a man who stirs something deep within our story line heroine but Aria is searching for the pieces of her family history, pieces that are rare and often hard to find including her brother Gio who hasn’t returned any of her calls. What ensues is the quick building romance and relationship between Kace and Aria, and the potential fall-out as Kace knows more about our heroine than she could have ever imagined.

Kace August is tired of the concert circuit, and is finishing the current tour with artist Chris Marek, as they raise funds for various charities around the world. Kace is a man who knows what he wants, and he wants our heroine, no matter the cost. But like our heroine, Kace is keeping secrets, secrets that could very well destroy the building romance between our leading couple as Kace’s secrets directly affect Aria Alard.

The relationship between Kace and Aria is one of immediate attraction but Aria is on a mission to locate several items for her current client when a competitor sees an opportunity to pull Aria from her ongoing search in an effort to gain her knowledge in a search for himself. Aria’s rapidly building relationship with Kace August reveals the potential for bad blood in the world of priceless collectibles, a revelation that is about to directly affect our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of familiar and colorful secondary and supporting characters including Mark and Crystal Compton, Chris and Sara Merit, and Alexander Voss (Inside Out), and Rick Savage (Savage Trilogy).

A RECKLESS NOTE is a story of secrets and lies, money and competition, relationship, friendships, family and love. The premise is captivating and intriguing; the characters are energetic, spirited and charismatic; the romance is seductive, spicy and hot. A RECKLESS NOTE ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

Love Me Forever: Dirty Rich Betrayal (Dirty Rich #11) by Lisa Renee Jones-Review  and Excerpt Tour

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 12, 2020

Grayson Bennett returns.

A powerful man, the king of the world to some, but he is nothing without Mia Cavanaugh. She is his life, his heart, the reason he breathes. Shaken by an attempt on her life, Grayson is ready to marry her, love her, protect her, but the threat isn’t over. He has lost everyone he loves before Mia. He will do anything it takes to protect her and call her his forever.

•••••••

REVIEW:DIRTY RICH BETRAYAL: LOVE ME FOREVER the eleventh instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult DIRTY RICH romantic, suspense series, and the second instalment in thirty-eight year old, billionaire businessman and attorney Grayson Bennett, and thirty-year old, criminal lawyer Mia Cavanaugh’s story line. DIRTY RICH BETRAYAL: LOVE ME FOREVER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading DIRTY RICH BETRAYAL (Dirty Rich #4) for back story and cohesion but the author has generously recapped the previous events leading to the current timeline. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. As per most of Lisa’s series, there is a slight cross-over with inclusion of some of the characters from the author’s Walker Security series, Eric Mitchell (The Filthy Trilogy), Grayson Bennetts best friend, as well as Reese Summer and Cat Maxwell (Dirty Rich #1).

Told from three first person perspectives (Mia, Grayson and Eric) using present day and memories from the past,  DIRTY RICH BETRAYAL: LOVE ME FOREVER picks shortly after the events of Dirty Rich Betrayal (Dirty Rich #4) wherein Mia and Grayson have reunited following a year forced apart by betrayal and revenge but with their reunion, the threats continue until someone dies placing Mia and Grayson in the direct line of fire. The group known as The Dungeon is determined to destroy Grayson Bennett, using the woman he loves in the process. With the help of Blake Walker and Walker Security, as well as Graysons best friend Eric Mitchell, the team uncover the truth behind the attempts on their personal security and private lives. As Grayson battles between head and heart as it pertains to the safety of the woman he loves, Mia must come to terms with an upcoming case, a case where the odds are quickly stacking against Mia, and the woman she is about to defend.

DIRTY RICH BETRAYAL: LOVE ME FOREVER is a story of betrayal, vengeance, retribution and love; a story of revelations and acceptance. The fast paced premise is engaging, captivating and intriguing but the final conflict resolutions were too easy-too neat and clean; the romance is passionate and seductive; the characters are colorful, strong and intense. LOVE ME FOREVER is a dramatic story of second chances and happily ever after.

My lips part Mia’s and I can taste a million missed moments on my tongue, a million wants, and needs. A million demands my body craves and I want to bury them all inside her. I reach up and catch the top of her blouse just above her buttons and yank, tiny buttons flying everywhere. She gasps and already I’ve unhooked the front clasp of her bra. Already, my gaze is raking over the swell of her high breasts, the pucker of her pink nipples.

“Grayson,” she whispers, and there was a time not so long ago that I thought I’d never hear my name on her lips again, at least not spoken with that raspy burn of a plea. And that’s what my name is on her lips right now: a plea.

I know what she wants, what she needs and I need. That forbidden burn of submission she has often admitted to wanting, the need in her that answers my need for control. For her, it’s the only time she allows herself to fully let go, to dare to give me that control, and fear nothing. For me, inside that control is her trusting me, her being all-in in every possible way. I’d like to say I know she is, and on most levels I do, but the bite of her leaving is fresh. Her believing I cheated is a bleeding wound, only now healing. But it is healing. That said, it’s true, absolutely fucking true, that her submitting right here in our bedroom and showing me how much she trusts me, feels urgent. It feels necessary.

Cupping her hands behind her back, I yank her to me hard and fast, her naked breasts smashed to my chest. I’m about to kiss her and turn her over and spank her when she says everything I didn’t know I needed to hear in a mere three words. “I was lost without you.” A moment later, she pushes to her toes and presses her soft lips to mine.

Just like that, she spreads a softer, sweeter emotion through me and that dark hardness only she understands submits to her. She owns me. There was a time when I might have tried to fight such an absolute need, but there was never a chance. Not with Mia.

I tear away her jacket and toss it aside, cupping her head and slanting my mouth over her mouth, drinking her in, drugging myself with that sweetness of hers that is so damn perfect. The kind of sweetness that brings a man to his knees and I’m already there. I’ve been there. Her fingers tangle in the thick strands of my hair and it’s as if we’re swept into a far, far land, in the middle of an ocean where only we exist. Where we’re drowning in each other.

It’s Mia that ends that kiss, tearing her lips from mine and reaching for my tie. Impatient, I grab it and yank it out of my collar. Another time, I’d use that tie, I’d twist it around her wrists. Five minutes ago, before her confession, before her kiss, I’d been in that place where the past year fucks with my head. A place where I’d lost her and my father. I’d have done just that. I’d have used sex to take us away, to consume us, and run from the pain. Instead, I’m here, I’m present, and I don’t want to be anywhere but here and present.

I’ve barely tossed it aside when she’s fumbling with my buttons. “Why are you not naked right now?”

“You first,” I murmur, turning her around and unzipping her skirt. She kicks off her heels and when my hands slide under the material, I slide it, and it alone since she’s still pantyless, down her hips. She steps out of it and when I might otherwise hold her here, I don’t. Not now. That’s not what I want now. She rotates to face me and just her standing there willingly naked and vulnerable is enough. I don’t care about control right now. And my need for that is a dangerous black hole I need to avoid.

Trust.

I have to give it to get it.

I have to remember that my walls created her fears.

I unbutton my shirt and then just tear my shirt over my head. I’ve barely tossed it aside and she’s pressed against me, soft and warm. She presses her lips to mine again, and the minute her tongue strokes mine, that need only she stirs inside me explodes…

SAVAGE BURN (Savage Trilogy #2) by Lisa Renee Jones-review & excerpt tour

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO / Chapters Indigo /

RELEASE DATE: February 18, 2020

My name is Rick Savage but they call me Savage for a reason. But savage that I am, there is only one woman who can tame the beast in me, one woman who sees the real man. I loved Candace. I lost Candace. Now my enemies have targeted her. For this, they will not survive. I’m back home to save her and win her back, no matter what the cost.

•••••••••••

REVIEW: SAVAGE BURN is the second instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult SAVAGE erotic, romantic suspense trilogy focusing on former Green Beret and Walker Security specialist Rick Savage, and architect Candace Marks. The SAVAGE trilogy is a spin-off from the author’s NAKED and Dirty Rich series with the appearance of several characters from the author’s Walker Security series. SAVAGE BURN should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book one SAVAGE HUNGER.

SOME BACKGROUND: Eight years earlier Rick Savage destroyed Candace Marks’ heart when he sent a ‘Dear Candace’ letter while on assignment overseas but what Candace never knew was that Rick Savage was recruited by a covert CIA black ops unit, a unit whose former members are now in prestigious and powerful places in the US government. When a debt is called in, Rick Savage must face the inevitable including the woman whose heart he destroyed.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Rick and Candace) SAVAGE BURN follows Candace and Rick as Rick must come to terms with the threats against the woman he loves. Having stayed away for close to eight years, a debt-owed brings Rick back into Candace’s life, a debt Candace could potentially pay with her life. As Rick’s past begins to target the woman he loves, Candace must face the possibility that her life as she knew it is spiralling out of control. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship between Rick and Candace, and the fall-out as the number of players in the game of revenge grows exponentially as the stakes get higher and more dangerous.

SAVAGE BURN is a story of secrets and lies; sins of the past; issues of trust, power and control. We discover Candace is a pawn in a game that reaches the highest level of the US government; and Rick Savage knows that his past will do anything to destroy the woman he loves. The premise is engaging, intriguing and energetic; the romance is erotic, passionate and intense; the characters are colorful, dynamic, powerful and strong. SAVAGE BURN ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

“I stayed away for a reason. I knew if I ever touched you again, I’d want all of you. I’d want to own you and I wouldn’t give a shit about the price. So, yes, I’m going to spank you.”

“You think me submitting during sex means you own me?” she challenges.

“One night at a time, baby.”

“One night at a time, until you ruin me?”

“And then some,” I assure her. “There’s no saving you now.” Just to be sure she’s clear on that fact, I scoop her up and start walking.

She doesn’t object. She holds onto me. I want to believe she’ll hold on forever, but I’m not sure we’re there yet. Who am I kidding? I know we’re not fucking there yet, which is why we’re not doing this in the kitchen. This isn’t about sex. It’s about us, it’s about our relationship, our connection, the intimacy we have shared, the past come back to life. That means our bedroom.
The place we started and ended days together. The place we talked for hours. The place where we did naughty, kinky things to each other. Okay, I did naughty, kinky things to her more than she did to me. But it was here where the most intense moments were shared.

Once there, I find a small lamp by her bedside alight, casting the room in a dim yellow hue, shadows dancing on the walls with our movements. Shadows that taunt me with everything I’ve hidden from Candace and can no longer hide if I want to make this work. And I do.
I set her down on the floor in front of the mattress, her back to my front. My hand is on her belly, my erection at her hip. My lips at her ear. “Do you think you’re ready to trust me again?”

Her hand goes to my hand as if she’s trying to control where it goes, to hold it there, and yet, she leans into me. “We’ll find out now, won’t we?”

He stirs my desires, a dark, delicious, and dangerous man destined to hurt me and leave me. This time I’m not sure I’ll survive.

•••••••

REVIEW: SAVAGE HUNGER is the first instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult SAVAGE erotic, romantic suspense trilogy focusing on former Green Beret and Walker Security specialist Rick Savage, and architect Candace Marks. The SAVAGE trilogy is a spin-off from the author’s NAKED and Dirty Rich series with the appearance of several characters from the author’s Walker Security series.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Rick and Candace) SAVAGE HUNGER follows the second chance relationship between Green Beret and Walker Security specialist Rick Savage, and architect Candace Marks. Eight years earlier Rick Savage destroyed Candace Marks’ heart when he sent a ‘Dear Candace’ letter while on assignment overseas but what Candace never knew was that Rick Savage was recruited by a covert CIA black ops unit, a unit whose former members are now in prestigious and powerful places in the US government. When a debt is called in, Rick Savage must face the inevitable including the woman whose heart he destroyed. Enter architect Candace Marks. What ensues is the rekindling relationship between Rick and Candace, and the potential fall-out as the betrayal and power in the US government and military hits too close to home.

The relationship between Rick Savage and Candace Marks is one of second chances; a relationship previously destroyed by Rick’s need to protect the woman he loved, a woman who is now engaged to another man. Rick has never stopped loving Candace Marks but struggles with the possibility of having to kill someone Candace may know or love. Candace believes Rick is a stone-cold killer, a belief Rick allows in an effort to prevent his heart from breaking, once again but Candace has moved on with her life, a life that is now threatened by the man that she loves, and the man with whom she is currently engaged.

The secondary and supporting characters include Rick’s father; Candace’s fiancé Senator Gabriel Manning, and his assistant Monica; and her father General Howard Marks. We are reintroduced to security specialists: ex-Army Ranger Smith, and SEAL Team Six member Adam.

SAVAGE HUNGER is a story of family, betrayal, retribution and trust; second chances, friendships, and love. The premise is engaging and captivating; the romance is steamy, seductive and hot; the characters are colorful, charismatic and energetic. SAVAGE HUNGER is a fantastic and intriguing start to Lisa Renee Jones’ new SAVAGE TRILOGY.

“Why are you here alone, Rick Savage?”He fixes me in a deep blue stare, and I swear I’m drifting in a sea of this man’s making. “To meet you. I just didn’t know it yet.”

The rain explodes around us again, an eternal roughening of the windows that only Texas does with such force. Thunder erupts with it, lightning in the distance, and I don’t know who moves first. Him or me. Suddenly though we’re in the middle of the seat and his fingers are tangling all rough and wonderfully in my hair, his mouth lowering to mine. “I’m going to kiss you now unless you object,” he says.

“Kiss me already, Savage.”

“Rick. Call me Rick.” And then his lips collide with my lips, his tongue a deep stroke of pure heat that has me moaning with the rush of sensation that assaults my body in the best of ways.
My arms slide around his muscular back, body pressing against his body, the hard lines of this incredible man absorbing more than the softer part of me. That need to be touched explodes inside me, demanding satisfaction. He pulls back and stares down at me. “Do you want to get out of here? Together.”

I tell myself this is crazy, insane, wildly out of my character. “I don’t do things like this. Ever.”

He kisses me again and leaves me breathless. “Make me the first.”

The Naked Trilogy #3
by Lisa Renee Jones
Release Dat: November 19, 2019
Genre: adult ,contemporary,erotic, romantic, supsense

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO / Apple /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 19, 2019

The thrilling conclusion to the Naked Trilogy.
He came into my life. He took me off guard, consumed me. Claimed me. But there is more to Jax North than meets the eye. There is more to this man than the way he makes me tremble, sigh, and even smile when I didn’t believe I still could smile. And as it turns out the two of us together are far more than fire and passion. The two of us together threaten to expose a secret about Jax, and our families, that not even we know. A secret that someone doesn’t want exposed. A secret that someone will do anything to hide.

••••••••••••

REVIEW: TWO TOGETHER is the third and final instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult NAKED erotic, romantic, suspense trilogy focusing on thirty-four year old, billionaire financial planner for North Whiskey Jax North, and twenty-eight year old hotel heiress Emma Knight. TWO TOGETHER should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book two ONE WOMAN.

NOTE: TWO TOGETHER deals with issues of suicide, and may not be suitable for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Emma and Jax) TWO TOGETHER follows the ongoing relationship between thirty-four year old, billionaire financial planner for North Whiskey Jax North, and twenty-eight year old hotel heiress Emma Knight but all is not right in their less than well-ordered worlds when issues of trust, betrayal, and lies pit family against family revealinga devastating secrets that tore two families apart. As Jax North continues to search for his brother Hunter’s killer, Emma finds herself the target of more than one man.

Emma Knight refuses to believe her brother had anything to do with the death of Hunter North but all paths point to her family’s involvement. From her brother Chance, to her absentee mother, Emma struggles with the possibility that family secrets have pushed too far forcing our heroine to walk away from the brother she loves.

Meanwhile Jax North battles for control of Emma’s heart in an effort to protect the woman with whom he is falling in love but secrets and lies, and dysfunctional family dynamics threaten everyone concerned including their future, going forward.

The relationship between Jax and Emma is highly erotic; a sexually aggressive romance wherein our couple demand everything from one another in an effort to stabilize their loss of control. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

TWO TOGETHER is a story of family, betrayal, vengeance and love; of secrets and lies; of mistakes, morals, grief and forgiveness. The premise is intriguing and captivating; the character are colorful, energetic and strong; the romance is passionate, seductive and hot.

I am hot, hard, and in need of this woman in ways that I have never needed in my life. Every time I think she’s taken all I have to give, she takes more. But so do I. I want it all with Emma. I want all of her and nothing less. And so, my kiss, my touch, my very breath, right here and now, is all about demand. I demand. She demands. I touch her. Her hands are all over me. We’re wild. We’re burning alive. I rotate her, and somehow, she crashes against the wall. “Oh hell. Sorry, baby.”

She laughs, that sweet sexy laugh of hers. “I like it rough.”

I laugh, and damn, it feels good. We’re back to us right now. Will it last? I hope like hell it does. I kiss her again, and we erupt into a frenzy of touching and tugging off clothing until we’re both naked. I sit down in the chair in the corner, dragging her on top of me. Her arms wrap around my neck, her sweet floral scent teasing my nostrils, clinging to my skin.

I caress a path up her spine, molding her closer. “I’m not letting you go,” I say. “That’s not happening.”

“Remember that,” she whispers. “Whatever happens. Remember that.” She reaches for my mouth, and I tangle my fingers in her hair, slanting my mouth over hers.

Awareness hits that she’s just spoken those words as if they preclude a bloody war, and maybe it will. Maybe it already has, but right now, it’s her and me, and the rest of the world doesn’t exist. Our lips collide, and when I kiss her this time, it’s with a clawing hunger for some unnamed something that only she can name. Revenge, satisfaction, grief, pain, happiness. All things lead back to Emma. She needs to save her brother. I didn’t save mine. My need for her is the only outlet for what I know is guilt. I didn’t save my brother. I didn’tfucking save him.

I drag my mouth from hers, the taste of her, so damn sweet, so damn addictive, lingering on my lips. “Emma,” I whisper, biting back words about her brother I know she doesn’t want to hear, but I need to say them.

“Not now,” she whispers. “Just us right now.” Her lips press to mine.

Her tongue presses past my teeth, and when it touches mine, a whisper of a caress, I swear I feel that tease in the throb of my cock and the racing of my heart. I close my hand around her hair where it rests on her head, kissing the hell out of her, and I admit that part of me is angry at her, not just myself. Why did she make me care this damn much? Why did she complicate my revenge? Another part of me thanks God that she did. I’m thinking too much, and I drive away any semblance of reality, savoring the sweetness of her on my tongue, the weight of her breasts in my hands. The sounds, those sexy sounds she makes, radiating along my nerve endings.

Tangled Up in Christmas by Lisa Renee Jones-a review

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO / Chapters Indigo / Google Play

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 29, 2019

I haven’t been back to Sweetwater, Texas, in years but somehow, here I am―back where it all started. I’m still trying to figure out how. And of course, I don’t even make it out of the airport before I run into my ex―the entire reason why I left Sweetwater in the first place.

Horse wrangler Roarke Frost’s shoulders are just as broad as I remember, that crooked smile of his still in place, and my heart is melting like chocolate in the sizzling Texas sun. Stupid heart. But worse, we’re supposed to play nice together to pull off a Christmas festival in record time, which is the key to launching my new business.

Now we’re working side by side to save injured animals, setting up a bid-on-a-cowboy auction, and he’s pushing for a second chance. But I know he’s still keeping a secret that could tear us apart if I give him an inch.

•••••••

REVIEW:TANGLED UP IN CHRISTMAS is the second instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult TEXAS HEAT erotic, romance series. This is veterinarian Roarke Frost, and photographer Hannah’s story line. TANGLE UP IN CHRISTMAS can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary. We were first introduce to Roarke in book one The Truth About Cowboys.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Hannah and Roarke) TANGLED UP IN CHRISTMAS follows the second chance romance and relationship between twenty eight year old photographer Hannah, and thirty four year old veterinarian Roarke Frost. Roarke and Hannah had been best friends all of their lives but seven years earlier betrayal broke Hannah’s heart sending our heroine to Los Angeles, California. Engaged to be married to the man that she loves, Hannah is destroyed when a video surfaces betraying everything she ever loved about Roarke and the small town of Sweetwater, Texas. Fast forward to present day wherein Hannah heads home to Texas in an effort to restart her career, a career destroyed by jealousy and revenge. To Hannah’s surprise and misery, she will come face to face with her past, a past she has never stopped loving but a past she is unable to forgive or forget. Enter veterinarian Roarke Frost. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship and romance between Roarke and Hannah, and the potential fall-out when the truth is revealed.

Hannah ran from Sweetwater, Texas in an effort to forget about the man that she loved. Destroyed by betrayal, Hannah struggled to move on with her life, always comparing every man to the one that she lost. Roarke Frost never got the chance to defend himself, and in this, our hero struggled to move on from the past. A successful veterinarian on the horse circuit, Roarke pushed himself in an effort to forget about the woman that ran away.

The relationship between Hannah and Roarke is one of second chances: a rebuilding friendship and romance between two people destroyed by someone else’s vindictiveness, jealousy, greed and anger. The town of Sweetwater, Texas believed that Hannah and Roarke were always meant to be but only a few people knew what happened to destroy their life-long love affair. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including Jason and Jessica (The Truth About Cowboys #1); Hannah’s business partner Linda Moore; Roarke’s grandmother Ruth; Jason’s grandmother Martha; Hannah’s parents; Mayor Luke Combs, as well as a number of veterinary interns.

TANGLED UP IN CHRISTMAS is a story of betrayal and vengeance; forgiveness and moving forward; second chances and love. The premise is sexy and inviting; the characters are flirty and sassy; the romance is spicy and seductive. The angst level is low; there is no suspense or threats from an outside source; the conflict resolution is tender and realistic. TANGLED UP IN CHRISTMAS is a delightful addition to the author’s TEXAS HEAT series.

There is also a surprise addition to the ARC-a copy of a previously released holiday novella-SANTA BABY by Lisa Renee Jones

Dirty Rich Secrets Part 3 (Dirty Rich) by Lisa Renee Jones-a review

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO / Chapters Indigo / iBooks

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 24, 2019

RELEASE DATE: September 24 ,2019

The mind-blowing finale to Ashley and Aaron’s story is here! Everything they know is not what it seems, but will they find out the truth before it destroys their future?

•••••••••••••

REVIEW: DIRTY RICH SECRETS Part Three is the third instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary adult DIRTY RICH Secrets erotic, romantic suspense serial focusing on paralegal Ashley, and former CIA operative Aaron aka Noah. DIRTY RICH SECRETS Part 3 should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book two.

SOME BACKGROUND: Former CIA operative Aaron has been framed. On the run, Aaron must come out of hiding in an effort to protect the woman he loves, and prove his innocence to the people in charge.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Ashley and Aaron) Part 3 focuses on the search for the truth. Needing a ‘safe house’ to strategize their next move, Rick Savage of Walker Security, offers up his condo to Ashley and Aaron wherein our couple must come to terms about what happened and why. Meeting the team from Walker Security, plans are made to take down the person(s) who took down our story line hero.

Ashley continues to have issues of trust fearing Aaron is about to run and never look back; Aaron is desperate to prove his innocence even if he has to kill again. The premise is fast paced and engaging; the romance continues to be spicy and hot; the characters are familiar and energetic. My only complaint, like Rick Savage says, is the anti-climatic conflict resolution. I wanted something more- something with more excitement and bite.
