A Web of Secrets & Lies

by K.E. Wilson

Bradley Rider, self-made realtor with a bad reputation and a dark family history.

His life seemed to be going well until he laid eyes on Emma Sinclaire, a seemingly broke waitress with a deadbeat boyfriend.

The moment she set foot in one of his apartment's he knew he had to stay away from her, that was until she stumbled into him on a night out.

From that moment on their lives changed forever.

Now they must fight to survive the web of secrets and lies from both of their past's.

This is the first of a series. If you love dark romance and fantasise about a men who will protect the person they love no matter what then give Bradley Rider and his friends a chance. I hope you enjoy.

This story is absolutely amazing and so well written that it will definitely have you on the edge of your seat right from the very first chapter. It’ll have you biting your nails, hiding your face and biting your lip. A definite rollercoaster ride of emotions . It tells a story of Emma a waitress at a local diner with a dark past, and Brad a realtor who lays eyes on Emma knowing full well she’s forbidden territory. Both brought together to save themselves. There is forced proximity, scenes of torture, heartbreak, betrayal and an overbearing MMC. There is lots of spice and some involvement with incest. I absolutely recommend this book.

Thank you to K.E.Wilson for allowing me to read this ARC and experience the journey to create an amazing book

From the very first chapter, I was hooked on Bradley and Emma’s story. Bradley is such a complex character a self-made realtor with a dark past and watching him try to keep his distance from Emma made the tension almost unbearable (in the best way). Emma’s resilience, despite her rough situation, made me root for her from the start.
The plot is fast paced but never rushed, with just the right balance of romance, suspense, and mystery. Every time I thought I had figured out the secrets from their pasts, another twist would catch me off guard. By the end, I felt like I had been on an emotional rollercoaster and I loved every second of it.

After being in a book slump for a few months and struggling to keep my attention on a book, I came across little beauty and I was hooked from the get go!

Emma’s story is brutal but she’s is a damn strong character!
Then we get to BRAD! Oh god wrap me up in that man because hell yes!!

The friendship group these two have are chefs kiss and I honestly loved it! If I could re read for the first over and over again I would!

Looking forward to the next because damn do I need more!
