The Problem With Pell: The Pell Playhouse Book Two

by Vicki Sweets

My name is Olivia Cook, and I'm dating the proprietor of sexual deviancy amongst the wealthy.

Months into their relationship, Olivia couldn't be happier. Jack spoils her, teases her, and pleases her while discreetly balancing his work at the Playhouse. But when a Playhouse party becomes a little untamed, Olivia starts to wonder whether she's enough for the carnal desires of Mr. Jackson Pell.

When Jackson's past catches up to him, he leaves Olivia wondering where they stand as he tries to regain control of a situation that brings threats of imminent danger to those he cares about. Struggling with confessing more secrets of his past, Jackson seeks to find a way to reconcile with Olivia - without putting her in harm's way.

But darkness from the past is hiding in the shadows on both sides. Will the world tear them apart? Or will it bring them closer to an unbreakable bond as they face their pasts head on?

I love this book just as much as the first one..again, I’m not sure why I waited so long to read the books! It is definitely to see another side of Jackson and to be honest I am here for it. Although, I know have more questions than I did when I first started reading this book. Still love the character development. The last several chapters had me on edge. This book had several yummy scenes—the last yummy scene being my favorite!

Now I just have one question.

Will there be a third book? Because I NEED to find out what happens next. That ending was…I don’t have words.

I read this in one day. No, I CONSUMED this book in a single day. It has mystery, it has danger, it has wild twists all in a very shmexy romance/erotica bow. I don't want to say too much too much because no spoilers on my behalf. Vicki Sweets does a great job of mixing the spice with the twisty intrigue. My plot-driven reader brain ATE IT UP! Just read it. You won't be sorry. Five stars and five spicy chilis. PS Jackson is the bad@$$ *chef's kiss*

So many things happened in 180 pages

Ugh!! So much new information that I am having a hard time processing. And two of those things happening at the end. Ugh!!

Daniel is his…..I can’t even ruin it for anyone else because I was shocked and it was worth it. Vicki!! If I curse you out then you have a reader for life. And yes I cussed you out. 😁Thank you!!

Can we get Ryan and Kari’s story? Also uhm, can you not make Graham sound so attractive because right now he sounds yum!

Great Series.

I’m invested in this series. I found this author on Tiktok & I‘m glad that I did. This series is very entertaining and I cannot wait for the next installment.

The Pell Playhouse is not what it seems. This book leaves you on a cliffhanger, so if you can't wait until Vicki is done then no need to read just yet. I enjoy this style of writing, and the imagery is amazing!
