Review:

"The Wrong Shade of Lipstick" by B.M. Hardin was another one of this author's hits. This novel is simply off the chart being that its such a wonderful good read that once you start reading it will be hard to put down until the end. This author really knows how to give the reader so many twist and turns...when you think you have it figured out no, you will be turn another direction and leaving you saying Wow...I didn't see that coming! "The Wrong Shade of Lipstick" was about Skilar Parks who 'constantly found struggling to find her own identity.' Will she be able to find it? What secrets will come out that will bring it all out in the light? Who will Skilar turn to trust her secrets? How ever, due to many of Skilar's indiscretions well, only to leave you left saying what in the world is going on with this 'local preacher's daughter' you must pick up "The Wrong Shade of Lipstick." It definitely left me say wow what a read that had some real twists in it. I don't want to give any of it away only say I don't think you will be disappointed with the read and yes, I would recommend this novel to you.

Skilar returns home to participate in her sister Charlotte's wedding,Unfortunately the groom and Skilar have history that they're not ready to share with the rest of the family.When things don't work out as plan,events start to occur that have you wondering what is really going on? Will all the skeletons from the past be revealed ? or, Are the secrets too damaging to be repeated?

Wow!!!This book contained nothing but drama from the beginning to the surprising end. The twist and turns were unlike any book I read. Just when I thought I had the story figured out,I was proven wrong.I had no idea what I was in store for when all secrets were finally revealed.I would definitley recommend this book for the suspense and drama.Great Job B.M. Hardin

Wow!!

I truly enjoyed reading this story! I'm a big fan of B.M. Hardin, so I decided to look up the books by her that I haven't read. Needless to say, I wasn't disappointed! I had no idea where this story was going,and I LOVE that in a book. Once again I commend B.M. Hardin for taking me on a crazy, drama-filled journey

Excellent read!!!!!!

I am a devoted Mary monroe & E.N. Joy fan. However, another star is in my literary universe, that being B.M. Hardin. I have read most of her novels in the past week and I must admit, none have left me disappointed. Brava!!!! God has blessed you with a talent!!!!

Great story.

I love this authors writing style in this particular story and truly enjoyed this book from the beginning to the end. However, toward the end the book had a lot of grammatical errors that required youth stop and reread to make sure you understood what was being said. Other than this I’m looking forward to my next read from BM Hardin.

It was a “okay” read

This book was just “okay” for me. It wasn’t what I expected. I feel like a lot of relevant information was left out which left me sort of confused. The storyline ad plot twist was good but the way it was presented was kind of off to me.

Psychological thriller

This book was definitely one of my favorites by this author. It kept me guessing until the end. I kind of wish it was a part two or something. The way it ended can go either way, room for part two or just the end of the story. Great book!

Just wow!!! I don’t know what else to say but wow...the author used their words so well that you can envision the events happening in this book. The ending is how you would imagine Real Love to be like....In Sickness and In Health

Phew

BM has never let me down!!! I what a twist at the end that I did not see coming but it was great read!!! I enjoyed it all, at one point I wondered why the story was being told from mostly one side and now I understand why. It was Skis reality.

Because I read hundreds of urban fiction, I have read several books with this concept. Of course BM puts her twist on it and write it as her own, yet this book was good. I would recommend it.

Amazing storyline. It has a mixture of family drama, lies, lots of love and mental illness. The plot was expertly crafted and the ending is unforgettable. Must read.
