Devious Lies: A Standalone Enemies-to-Lovers Romance

Product Information

I’m really looking forward to reading about Delilah’s book bc her energy is what I need in my life.

last but not least, the plot.. too many things were happening at once, and at the same time, nothing was going on. this book had SO MANY TROPES and i could never figure out where this was all going. guess i'll never find out because i dnfed the book 🤪 but to name a few, this had enemies to lovers, rich girl/poor boy (in the past), rich boy/not-so-rich heroine (present), heroine working for the hero, age gap, PENPALS (?!), etc. the penpals plot was by far the worst of all. how very convenient that these two have been messaging through an app for three years, sexting, saying "I love you" to each other yet never meet 🤨 first things first…this book doesn’t even deserve one star, but here we are. the wait for this review is over hehe, enjoy!<33 the betraying body syndrome was strong with Emery. Nash would treat her like shit, and she'd be salivating over him 😭 for the record, i don't really like Nash either, but he said it perfectly here: This by far has taken me the longest to finish a book as it just dragged on....The first 40% was a confusing mess. I’m still not sure I quite understand it’s purpose other than rambling. From Emery muttering “pretty words”... each chapter was something more rediculous...With Nash... It's a vicious love, the kind that beats me down and robs me of all my possessions until I feel bloodied, worn, and bruised, stolen of everything that makes me... me." And obviously, I recommend this to whoever has eyes, too, of course, because that impossibly hot COVER is the cherry on top to a cake you didn't know you needed in your life, but definitely do. She had a difficult childhood in the hands of her unavailable parents that were so conceited and self-absorbed to the extent that they didn’t have any time for her. She faced near rape, she faced bullying and what have you, and as if all that was not enough, she fell into the hands of a sworn enemy when she was grown up. From USA Today bestselling author Parker S. Huntington comes an enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn romance full of revenge and a dash of fate. “She could enjoy her pretty, perfect world a little longer. Soon enough, everything she owned would be mine.” I had a plan to escape the friend zone. Step one: sneak into Reed’s room. Step two: sleep with him. But when the lights turned on, it wasn’t familiar blue eyes I saw. These were dark, angry, and full of demons. And they belonged to Reed’s much older brother. Four years later, Nash Prescott is no longer the help’s angry son. I’m no longer the town’s prized princess. At twenty-two, I’m broke, in need of a job. At thirty-two, he’s a billionaire, in need of revenge. Who cares if my family ruined his? Who cares if he looks at me with pure loathing? Who cares if every task he assigns me is designed to torture? I need the money. Simple as that. I’ll suffer his cruelty in silence, knowing there’s one thing he wants more than revenge… Me. Note: This is a 145,000-word standalone in the Cruel Crown world.

What's the Name o...: New Adult Romance Book with Best Friend's Older Brother, In love with best friend, accidentally sleeps with older brother Emery was so proud and strongwilled...I loved her for what she were doing, even though i was feeling sorry for her situation many times!!! This is the second book I read from Parker S. Huntington, and for the second time, I'm left stunned, breathless, speechless. This is a literate masterpiece. The combined effect of these two types of sentences means Bottomley must spend at least eight years and eight months behind bars before he can apply for parole. Judge Aubrey told him to sign on the Sex Offenders Register for life. Girls like Emery Winthrop were the finish line, the goal you worked for, the place you strived to reach, the smile you saw when you closed your eyes and wondered why you even bothered.'Its just a shame that it’s all let down by the writing. It’s like reading a first draft. The foundations are good. The tension and conflict fuels the story. There’s loads of potential, but it needs a good sorting out. Get rid of the extraneous fluff, flesh out the characters and pot holes, rectify the inconsistencies, and it could be great. How desperate for attention was she that she needed to break into my penthouse and strip in my shower? From USA Today bestselling author Parker S. Huntington comes an enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn romance full of revenge and a dash of fate. Four years ago, Emery sneaked out in Reed's bedroom to profess her love to him and to do other things with him, but it turned out that Nash was in his place... What I love more: he’s a grump but still a caring, kind hearted person that’s too hard on himself which Emery notices and cherishes. I love his awareness and philosophical brain.
