Lovely Deceit by E.M. Moore

 

Lovely Deceit, (Pretty Little Dead Girl)
E.M. Moore
⭐⭐⭐⭐




Blurb:
Growing up in the elite world, I’ve been taught not to trust. Still, I did it anyway. Silly, silly me. I should’ve known how it would end… Blindsided by their broken parts and their similarities to my own story, I let my guard down. I put my faith in them—my gorgeous Economics professor and the Knights’ bad apple. And was rewarded with the ultimate betrayal. Not again. Never again. It’s time for my revenge. It won’t be pretty. It won’t be sweet. But it will be one-hundred percent satisfying. I can promise them that.


Series
Hush, Hush Prequel


Lovely Deceit is the second book in the Pretty Little Dead Girl series and yes you must read them in order. Pretty Secrets left Eden in an incredibly bad situation. Lovely Deceit picks up from there. What little bit of trust she had been building with Alaric and Leo is gone. Done. While the ending of book one was a moment of clarity for Eden, it was also a moment of clarity for Leo and Alaric. Their lives have been mapped out for them for so long, they have to contemplate what they actually want. Eden has never been a pushover though and she will get her revenge. She will make them pay. 

Oliver is the one shining light for Eden. Bless him, he loves her so much and will do anything for her. He wants to get her out of this messed up world so bad. Seeing her like he did at the end of book one wrecked him. I love him and his fierce determination to do whatever he can to keep her safe. 

This book didn't have the same anticipation and heart stopping moments as book one did. It did have a lot of relationship growth and some intense character development. The things that happen in their world really make them take stock of their lives. E.M. does an amazing job of taking characters that you NEVER thought you could feel for and making you see their side. Making you fall for them and root for them. We also get to see Eden and the lengths she will go to in order to show these boys that she is no weak little girl. She has determination and she will get her answers and NOBODY will get in her way. Now this book does have some hot and steamy moments as well. With the amount of emotions, good and bad, that this group has for each other you can't help but have some fireworks going on. 

I am happy to report that this book does NOT end on a major cliffhanger. What? How is that even possible right? We are so used to it now days that I was like, wait, really? But yes, we have an ending that leaves you comfortable and yet ready for the next book. An ending that gives you a little bit of peace. Now we wait for December to see this group put all their talents together and unleash hell on the monsters in their world.

Merciless Spy by Heather Long

  Merciless Spy, (82 Street Vandals) Heather Long ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon / Goodreads Blurb: The fierce twin. The dark brother. The wild one. I don’t give a damn about labels. I never have. Not when it comes to me. But stay the hell away from my brothers. All of them. I’ve sacrificed a lot for them, and I’m more than willing to give a lot more. If my blood, sweat, tears, and life were needed, I’d give it all up. Every damn drop. For my brothers, there was nothing I wouldn’t lose. Until her. Reckless, ferocious, and seemingly born to match me in temperament and spirit, Hellspawn is not the fragile flower they all think she is. I don’t think she ever has been. She will not be left behind, she will not hide, and she will not take the crap that life has been throwing at her. She’s saved our lives, defended us, fought for us, and sacrificed herself for us. I have no questions about what she would do if they tried to leverage us against her. This is why I won’t allow anyone to put her to t...
