Review: Some Call it Temptation - Book #2 Sweet Dreams Series - Sarah Peis - November 2020   I was in the mood for something sweet to read, a step away from the thrillers and mysteries that have been dominating my reading list this year so far. I enjoyed the first book in this series as it had a few laughs and the writing was easy to read, so I remembered that I had the rest of the series and moved on to Book 2. Some Call it Temptation introduces us to Willa's friend Stella. The book starts as a grumpy/sunshine read as Stella is Ms. Sunshine and Mason is Mr. Grumpy. In the first few chapters, you can see the hate towards Stella pouring off Mason. Things start to change though, when Mason discovers Stella's secret about her mother and her family. I have to admit, this next bit frustrated the hell out of me as yes Stella's mum blackmailed her to do her bidding. But if Stella had just talked to Mason and her friends about what was happening, they would have come up with a s...

Review: Seduction and Temptation - Book #0.5 Sins Series - Jessica Sorensen - June 2014 With 2021 nearing the end, I decided to try and clear what older titles that I can off my kindle. The Sins series, I read the first book a few months back and enjoyed it. Seduction and Temptation is the prequel to the first book and sets the scene. In Seduction and Temptation, we read the few defining moments in Lolita aka Lola's life that made her who she is today. The first was her mother's death which she was convinced was foul play, but nobody believed her. The second was finding the letter from her mother addressed to Everson which we find out more about in Book #1, the third was her losing her virginity to Layton - her former best friend and last but not least, her first time shooting someone and now as we know from Book #1 which is set a few years later, Lola must choose to face the consequences for her action as it's only a matter of time before death comes for her or run and ...
