Innocence & Betrayal dare I
say go hand and hand. I found a little something between the lines and on
every page. I wanted answers. I was begging for results.
Aiden was
what every other Irish born male could dream of hottness. Sexy brogue.
Independent. Protective. Ava needed every thing he had to offer and more. There
was a misted veil around her work and the one night she decides to let it all
go. She needed help to get to the bottom of it all.
What I
loved most about this read was that there were no cliffhangers. No dragging the
story out for multiple books of a single series. There was answers. There were
results. There was chemistry. There was suspense. I want very much to go back
and see if book one of the series will be this satisfying.
Hidden
Truths have me looking forward to the next installment. Because I will be
reading book one in the series tonight.

Silenced Memories - Hidden Truths, #1
Innocence & Betrayal - Hidden Truths, #2
Reserved biochemist Ava Daniels has
spent the last six months working on a top secret assignment for Homeland
Security. One morning, after a night of finally letting loose, she discovers
her lab empty and her boss missing. Interrogated by the very organization she
works for, followed by unknowns, and attacked, Ava finds herself in search of
answers as the clock winds down.
Aiden O’Connor, Irish born and raised,
attempted to put his past behind him when he opened a bar in the heart of
Boston. Until one night, when Ava Daniels shows up asking for help. She is like
no other woman he has ever met—breathtakingly beautiful, brilliant, and in
terrible danger. Once he learns the true nature of her problem, Aiden realizes
she is the key to unlock his past . . . and perhaps to get a second chance.
Innocence & Betrayal, Book 2 of
the Hidden Truths series, is a stand-alone novel that features appearances from
some of your favorite characters in Book 1: Silenced Memories.
Hidden Truths is a new romantic
suspense series, which features ex-Marines in these stand-alone novels--no
cliffhangers. To avoid spoilers though, it is recommended that the books be
read in order, as characters make cameo appearances in other novels. Each book
in the series is riddled with mystery and romance, as lies and corruption are
unraveled to reveal the truth.

Aiden
steadied a hand under her chin, tilting her head up to face him. “I have to be
honest. I don’t give a damn about Henry. I don’t know the man. But I don’t like
the idea of something happening to you.”
“And why is
that?” She couldn’t breathe. His mere presence had captured all the oxygen in
the room.
“Call me crazy,
but I’ve got a weakness for a damsel in distress.” There was a hint of a smile
in his eyes as his thumb brushed over her lips.
“Who are
you?” she whispered.
He took a
step back; his hand dropped. “I own the pub, you know.”
“And before
that?”
He opened his
mouth for a brief moment before snapping it closed. “You should get some rest.
We’ll brainstorm a plan in the morning.”
She looked
down at the bed and back at Aiden. “Um.”
“No worries,
love. I’ve got the couch.”
The hideous
blue couch beneath the window didn’t look comfortable at all, but she didn’t
argue, because she knew she’d never be able to sleep if they shared the same
bed. “I wish I had some clothes.” She pressed her hand against the side of her
jeans. Her thighs ached from being constricted all day.
Her eyes
widened as Aiden removed his white T-shirt from over his head.
“It’s long
enough to cover your arse. And more comfortable than your jeans, I’m sure.”
Ava’s gaze
was glued to his hard, rippling flesh, no matter how much she knew she should
look away. The memory of his body, fighting at the gym, flashed into her mind,
and she finally pulled her eyes up to meet his. Without realizing it, her
fingers reached to touch the scar on his brow. “Is that from boxing?”
His hand
caught her wrist and he removed her touch. “Something like that. Now get some
shut eye.”
“What will
you sleep in?” she asked before heading to the bathroom to change. He’d already
seen her in her “knickers,” as he would call them, but that didn’t mean she was
going to parade around nude.
“Boxers, if
that’s okay? But I’ll wait ’til the lights are out to drop my pants.”
She turned
around to find a smirk on his lips and a twinkle in his eyes; no doubt
connected to a mischievous thought. “I think it’s only fair that I get to see
you undressed, since you’ve seen me basically naked.” Where had that come from?
Had her twin sister just leaped inside her head and taken control?
“I don’t
exactly play fair.” Aiden quirked an eyebrow.
A genuine
smile on her own lips caught her off guard. And then she shut the bathroom
door.
