Fighting Fate #2
Hush
** There are NO CLIFFHANGERS in any of the Fighting Fate novels **
Kaeli Williams is hiding a secret. It isn’t one she wants to keep, but with a stepfather as well respected as hers, she isn’t sure anyone would listen to her even if she did tell.
No one would believe what went on behind the closed doors at home.
Not even her best friend.
It’s a secret that kills her to keep, especially because it protects him.
But she doesn’t have a choice. She has to keep it.
To protect her.
Noah Murphy is hiding a secret. It’s his job. But after eighteen months of working undercover as a drug pushing thug, he’s ready for a change.
With everything on the line and the end finally in sight, he just needs to keep focused, stay on his guard, and try not to get killed.
But Fate, it seems, is not so fond of secrets.
When blackmail forces Kaeli right into the middle of Noah’s dangerous world of hard core drug dealers, rapists and murderers, secrets quickly become ticking time bombs, trust becomes a necessity, and protective instincts become primal.
Sometimes, Fate just needs to be told no.

The story is simply beautiful.
Kaeli is definitely one of my favorite heroines. I loved her loyalty and her love to her mother for whom she was willing to do the things that Ken asked her to do and I also admire her bravery.
I also fell in love with Noah he is definitely swoon worthy, I loved his protectiveness and kind heart despite everything. His attitude towards Kaeli was really heart warming and I'm starting to have a thing for protective cops.
Noah and Kaeli's journey is amazing and sweet and the chemistry between them is absolutely wonderful. The development of their relationship isn't slow nor fast just the perfect pace, I really enjoyed how Kaeli had grown to trust Noah as Mitch before she knew his true identity and how she grew to care about him.Simply I loved this book and I wished if there was a sequel I would love to read more about Noah and Kaeli and it's funny how I personally grew attached to them because they're such likable characters. :D

Beautiful Journey.
Tears and Smiles.
This is the second book I have read by Maree Green and I LOVED the first one, Muse. This journey with Noah and Kaeli was beautiful, heart-wrenching, intense, passionate, sweet and sooo sexy. I devoured it. I couldn't slow down, I NEEDED to know how it was going to turn out.
Noah is the hero every woman wants to rescue her..... and he does it so well!!!!!! He's intense, passionate, vulnerable, sweet, and so damn sexy!!! You just want to eat him up!!
I loved Kaeli's vulnerability and bravery. She was sweet and sassy. She really grows on you, and you will be rooting for her the whole way through this intense journey.
Can't wait for more by this lovely author!

An 18yo girl with a mom beater step-dad and incredible gross stepbrother ends up in a den full of criminals. Unbeknownst to her one of them is an undercover cop. Hot.
This cop takes it upon himself to protect our girl from the disastrous situation she has been put in.
There's a cool band, a jealous rival, and a huge explosion. Our girl has quite a ride in this story (iykyk). I'll give ya one more thing... piercing ;)

The pairing in this one caught me off guard in a good way. And every girl deserves an all consuming-protective-risk it all kind of love.
I love how never gave up even when he thought it was the right thing to do.

Want to know if the whole series is worth reading? Read my overall review of the whole series at seriesousbookreviews.com! Spoiler Free!
This book had a different type of plot line than Muse but a lot of the same feels. The idea of finding someone who makes you feel safe, comfortable and gets who you are as a person remains the theme for this series. However, the plot line here was more suspenseful than your average contemporary romance read. There are elements of danger that make the story seem way more dramatic than it needs to be but I knew that going into the story. The dangerous storyline did keep me interested though because it was very unpredictable. I'm not a huge suspense fan but I liked the way it progressed.
It lost me a little near the end but I liked the majority of the book. I liked the romance, not as much as in the previous but that one is hard to beat I think. Definitely another guilty pleasure read for me though I am very excited for Fade.

Holy crap this book was freakin awesome. I loved everything about this book with it starting as Mitch the drug dealer to Noah the undercover cop - oh shit he was just so freaking hot. i love those kind of characters - tats, piercings, protective and so in love so intense especially with the sex. I love the way that Kaeli was strong in some ways and how the chemistry between them was awesome. The story line was great, the action, the drama, the love, the sex - everything. I even love that there was the band and Mia mentioned throughout the book. Love the book - actually love both books.

I would recommend this book. Great price. A strong story with so many social issues covered. Normally this isn't the type of story line I would read, but I love the group of characters from Muse (the first book) that I want to read all their stories. In saying that the book took me on a journey that I loved. Buy this book and support a great writer, you won't be disappointed.
