By: Carla BuckleyFor fans of Jodi Picoult comes an enthralling domestic thriller about the lies we tell, and let ourselves believe, in the name of love.
The first thing you should know is that everyone lies. The second thing is that it matters.
How well do we know our children? Natalie Falcone would say she knows her daughter, Arden, very well. Despite the challenges of running a restaurant and raising six-year-old twin boys, she’s not too worried as she sends her daughter off to college—until she gets the call that Arden’s been in a terrible fire, along with her best friend and cousin, Rory. Both girls are critically injured and another student has died. The police suspect arson.
Arden and Rory have always been close, but they have secrets they’ve never shared, secrets that reel all the way back to their childhoods, and which led them to that tragic night. Who set the fire, and why? As the police dig deep into both the present and the past, Natalie realizes that in order to protect her daughter, she’ll first have to find out who Arden really is, even if it means risking everything—and everyone—she loves most.

Hot tamales!
Format: Kindle
So Nico, using food as his love language. Damien, stoic and mysterious. Theo strong and constant. All revolving around Tessa, whose more than just a nanny. Absolutely loved it. Steamy and packed with awe and wonder as they travel the world in the name of art. Couldn't put the story down.

Entertaining Sweet and Steamy Billionaire RH Romance🔥❤️🔥
Format: Kindle
In this entertaining sweet and steamy,billionaire, RH romance Tessa is working as a server at a party for the Hawthorne Conservancy where she meets a cute little girl Tabitha who is going to change her life. After the party Tabitha can't stop talking about Tessa so her father Damian who's a billionaire takes it upon himself to just show up with no warning. The purpose of the surprise visit is to offer Tessa the job as Tabitha's nanny which she really has no chance of refusing. Once Tessa accepts the job she meets Nico the chauffeur as well as Theo the head of security Damian,Nico and Theo go everywhere and do everything together. What Tessa thought was going to be a simple nanny job has turned into so much more. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers. You really need to read this entertaining, sweet and steamy, billionaire, RH romance to see what happens. I would recommend reading this book.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Just okay
Format: Kindle
This is the second book from this duo I’ve read. And I just can’t get into it. Like Cassie Cole books. Sasha Moon is new to me. This book has a decent storyline. Intrigue. Exotic places. Dangerous underworld. Tessa is plucked from her waitressing job to nanny for Damien. The billionaire art mogul and his 2 friends. They are deep into a new project that they call the Legacy Collection. She’s whisked around the world as she Nanny’s for the billionaire. My problem is that I just do not like Tessa. She’s quickly inserting herself into business she knows nothing about. Creeping around places she shouldn’t be and the billionaire and his security is okay about it. A slight talking to and that’s all. I like a strong female character, but she was often a brat. She just wasn’t likable to me. She was tolerable once they arrived in Greece, but I was too far gone at that point. Good level of spice. The scenes were hot. The guys were likable. Overall, I couldn’t wait to finish it but I found myself often putting off picking it up

Great Story!!
Format: Kindle
This was a great story however, it did seem a little short. Maybe a little rushed, but that could also be because I wanted a little more development of the characters as a family :).
Also, I love how this story doesn’t seem like there are two different authors! Whew :). I love that!!!
The only real criticism I have is that there are too many characters with names that start with the letter “T” and it makes reading the story a little confusing.
