Honor starts right off where Trust left us hanging
Heath and Lucy at the Alter will they go through with the wedding ( not going spoil it have to read to find out) Really enjoyed this book and I can't wait for the next instalment! to see what happens after that twist at the end. If you enjoyed the first one you are going to enjoy this one
They are short but not to long a wait in-between for each book
Honor is the second part in the Blind Vows series, and it picked up right where Trust left off. We find out if Lucy decided to say "I do" to her 'enemy', Heath. I’m not going to spoil it and tell you if she does. You will have to read it to find out.
This volume continued to be sexy.
“My cock wanted her. My body wanted her. Hell, my soul wanted her.”
It was sweet and steamy.
“God, I wanted to bury myself inside her so bad. I’d had a hard-on for her for ten years.”
It was fun yet emotional.
There is a huge secret revealed in this volume and we were left with another cliffy. I can’t wait to read the final volume, Love, to see how Heath and Lucy’s story ends. ~ Tiffany, 4 stars

Oh, holy cliffhanger!! Epic, that's what it is, when you get to the end of a book and have to wait for the conclusion. I'd really like to not have to wait... Yeah, I'm impatient. What of it?!
Picking up where Trust left off, Lucy's groom is trying to convince her to walk down that aisle and become his wife. If he can do that, all that's left is getting her to fall in love with him...provided she doesn't uncover his secret.
I'm a little torn about writing this review... I'm loving this series; the premise is fun and interesting, the covers are divine, the cliffhanger has clamoring for Love to arrive on my Kindle ASAP, and Heathcliff? Well, he's quite delicious. So, why am I torn??
There's just something about the writing and the flow of the story that's a little off for me, and at times, it can be jarring. I'll be happily immersed in Lucy and Heath's story and it'll strike me, pull me from the story. I know for certain though, that despite the use of some words I'd rather not see in a book ("cum", although appropriate, is visually not appealing to me), some occasionally juvenile language and behavior, and a slightly-awkward-but-adorably-so nickname for Heath's *ahem* cock, I can and will quite happily read more about this couple.
I loved that Honor was told from Heath's POV -- and that the opening gave the reader a little insight into him, before we launched into the story. And I was more surprised by the twist and ending than I might have expected to be, which makes me a very happy reader.
Yes, I will most definitely be tuning in to the final installment in the Blind Vows series to see what happens next, and if this couple can get past the secrets and learn to Love one another. ~ Beth, 3.5 stars
This book leaves off where trust ends and let me tell you it does not disappoint. We see Lucy and heaths witty banter and hot as hell love blossom. But sometimes things are not so simple and when even a little white lie can just derail all those happy thoughts and feelings.
Well done on pulling me into a great book and leave me begging for more I so need book #3
The Blind Vows series is completely different from J.M. Witt's other books but that doesn't mean that it is not as awesome as they are :) I loved the main characters from the first few words I read about them in Trust and now in Honor I just fell deeper for them. I quite enjoyed getting to know Heath and Lucy better, and also seeing how their relationship develops during the few weeks represented in this short story.
Heath is definitely a hottie and I have to say that from the story it is obvious how much he loves Lucy. Even if he doesn't do the right thing every time he has to show it to her. And more often than not his screw ups are so big that it will be definitely difficult to get over them and forgive. But he also has a romantic and tender side that only makes Lucy fall harder for him.
I loved seeing Lucy fall harder for Heath and finally recognizing her real feelings for him. It was rather interesting to see how little by little she started trusting him more and more until at the most unexpected moment her trust was shattered into million pieces again. In a way I could understand Heath's reasons for what he'd done but it was still wrong in a way. Apart from that I am really hoping that they will manage to find their HEA. I simply think that they are meant to be together.
In a few words, I rather enjoyed this short story :) It is fun and entertaining with a healthy dose of heartbreak and hotness. I loved the characters and I am fully invested in their story. So I can definitely recommend this short story for the nights when you just need to sit and read a book that will take your mind off your everyday burdens. Of course you should first read Trust before diving into Honor and anxiously wait for Love after that :D
This review was originally posted at Living In Our Own Story Book Blog. I received an ARC of the book in exchange of an honest review.
Secret: a fact or piece of information that is kept hidden from other people
Lie: an intentionally false statement
With Heath revealing himself as Lucy's mystery match it's time for her to decide if Heath is "everything I loved to hate. Or was he everything I hated to love?" But with so much he's kept from her does Lucy make the right decision? How can she say "I do" when she isn't aware of what she's committing herself to.....
I'm not a huge roller coaster lover but I love supreme scream. You know, the ride that slowly churns you to the top and makes you wait in sweet agony for the 254ft drop. That's how I felt at the end of honor. I know something big was coming yet no matter how well I "braced" myself nothing prepared me. This series is like sweet sweet torture....every time I think I'm getting close to things smoothing out another curve is thrown in the mix. This is a series for those who want a fast paced squirm in your seat type of read.

All I can say is WoW!!! This author is awesome at what she does! Lucy and Heath are awesome, after that last cliffhanger I didn't know what she was going to throw at us next. I'm loving this series and cannot wait for more. Heath has a secret that he's hiding and he doesn't know how Lucy will react to it. I really hope these two end up with a HAE because they just seem so perfect. Lucy reacts just like any woman would when she finds out what he is hiding. On too of everything going to shit for Heath he wakes up to someone banging on his door. It was Will....the look on Will's face worried Heath. He thought something had happened to Lucy but, when Will answered, it was not Lucy however, it was just as bad! Had the pleasure of being sent an ARC in exchange for an honest opinion and my honest opinion is what are you waiting for, get these books ASAP awesome storyline!!
I was given a complimentary copy in exchange for my honest review.
"From this day on I will be your anchor, the one you can always depend on. If the sea of life gets rough, know you can turn to me."
In 'Trust', we see how strong of a connection that Lucy and Heath have, although they never get on the same page. So when Lucy realizes that Heath was picked for her blind marriage, she freaks out.
I love that this part of the serial is told from Heath's point of view. It gives further insight into Heath and Lucy's past and helps me to become more vested in them as a couple. It also helps the reader really fall for Heath. I also loved the banter between the two (and hello?!? lots of steam as well).
I don't want to give too much away, but I absolutely loved 'Honor'. It had a little of everything packed into roughly 60 pages, which is not an easy feat.
Honor is the second part in the Blind Vows Series and it picked up right where Trust left off. We find out if Lucy decided to say I do to her “enemy,” Heath. I’m not going to spoil it and tell you if she does. You will have to read it to find out.
This volume continued to be sexy. “My cock wanted her. My body wanted her. Hell, my soul wanted her.” It was sweet and steamy. “God, I wanted to bury myself inside her so bad. I’d had a hard-on for her for ten years.” It was fun yet emotional.
There is a huge secret revealed in this volume and we were left with another cliffy. I can’t wait to read the final volume, Love, to see how Heath & Lucy’s story ends. (4 stars)
This installment picks right up where the first one left off. I love love love Heath and Lucy. Heath and Lucy are trying to make things work, both deciding to put their best efforts forward and admitting that they have had long standing feelings for each is the beginning, but a secret could rip everything apart and Heath knows he cannot keep it from Lucy forever and when he is forced to spill the beans its heartbreaking, and then there is the a frigging cliffy that will knock your socks off, I didn't see it coming AT ALL.
I have to point out, that normally I am not a huge fan of novella series, but I love this author and this novella series is a MUST READ in my book.
We continue right where Trust left off...After that cliffhanger, we were holding our breath, waiting to see if Lucy accepted Heath's proposal. Lucy is uncertain due to their history and the times she felt betrayed by Heath. Did she finally accept? The banter is still fun and sexy and their interactions can get downright steamy. I will not spoil the story with how any of the situations evolve or resolve themselves, but I will say that the writing just gets better and better. Another wonderful addition to the Blind Vows serials.
Be warned ... the CH will surely leave you with palpitations and the possibility of a broken e-Reader.
I loved Heath and Lucy in the first book Trust! I loved them even more in this book! JM is a master at plot twists and her ability to pull you into her stories. She did it with her Anchored Hearts Series and she is doing it with these books. Heath and Lucy have loved each other for as long as they both can remember but bad decisions and insecurities have always stood in their way. Heath finally realizes that Lucy is IT for him and he will do whatever it takes to make her his forever. Now maybe they will finally have their HEA... or will they? I really need the next book to HURRY UP and release! I need to know what is going to happen!
JM Witt left us on one heck of a cliff in Trust bk1 of Blind Vows. And she picked up right where we were left dangling from.
We all know that Heathcliff Kerrigan had hurt Lucy when they were younger. And she vowed to never trust him again. But did she and would you have? Heath said he was so sorry for hurting and putting doubt in Lucy's eyes. He said he wouldn't hurt her again and that he loved her. Heath even said that he would be Lucy's anchor. So did Lucy except Heaths apology and get her happily ever after?
I simply adore this serial, Heath and Lucy have not had is easy to get to where they are now. Deceit and lies have damaged the relationship, but second chances are for forgiving and starting over. I love all of the emotions that were pulled from me. I laughed, cried and was left wanting more!! I love getting to know the other characters within the story as well!!! Definitely can not wait for the conclusion of this steamy read!!
I loved this portion of the serial just as much as the first. Between the Heath bar and the 'shanking' I couldn't wait to see what was in store for these two.
There's a history between Lucy and Heath, a past that they are both willing to move on from...for now!
Seriously though, besides the crazy awesome story, throw in some friendly banter and steamy sex scenes...this book ROCKED!
I need more like now, I have to know what happens next!!!
The honeymoon is on Lucy and Heath are enjoying each other! FINALLY!! But the romance doesn't last long after they get home. Heath has a secret that could change everything. Will he risk losing Lucy and tell her?
I am soooooooo in FLOVE with this serial!!!! I love the concept and I LOVE Heath and Lucy. They are so perfect for each other, they just need to get their head out of their asses!! The chemistry is UHMAZING!!! JM has written a spectacular serial and I can't wait for Love!!!
OMG, had a feeling at the end of the last bk. confirmed at the end of this bk, blown away, loving the story between Lucy and Heath, he has loved her for years, and she has loved him too, whether she wants to admit it, or not. Got together in an unconventional way, an experimental type program where they match you up, with perfect match for you, and you blindly marry that person.wow, you will be hooked, cannot wait for next bk., hating it is a month out, ugh.
after finding out heath is the man Lucy is to marry does she go through with it and day I do? or Will she leave him at the alter? Lucy can't stand heath because of the prank he pulled 10 years before.
there's not much I can post in this review without giving away the woke story but I can say this is a must read and an excellent story that will suvk you in and not let go until you have read it all.
Honor was a great story! I love the idea of marrying someone without meeting them even though I think it's a little crazy! I mean who would agree to that? And once Lucy finds out that Heath is her match is will she become the runaway bride?
Great quick read. Full of angst, love and some pretty hot sex scenes! Heath is redeemed in this part of the serial and seems to have grown and matured. But he has kept secrets from Lucy and when they come out their love will be put to the ultimate test.
This is the second book from a 3 part serial and Honor picks up where Trust left off.
I enjoyed this read,it was quick, I really liked the banter between the H/h and felt this book was a lot more emotionally charged than the first.
As with the first, it was a real easy read that I flew through - really enjoyed it and I dived straight into the last book as I couldn't wait to read the conclusion to Heath and Lucy's story.
I was blown away as always by how J.M. can pull you into a story and she sure did that with Lucy and Heath. Now his dream has come true. Heath is hiding something from Lucy and he need to tell her before she finds out from someone else. He has the girl of his dreams but will it last and for how long? You will need to read the story to find out... Way to go J.M. another great read....
I was given an advance copy and giving you my honest review I have to say that this second part is so sweet! It's refreshing to see everything now from his point of view. Gone with the cocky guy, in with the loving and sometimes insecure one. Oh and the different twists that this story have, they are killing me! Desperate to know what happens next because this one kept togging at my heart.
Story continues right where book 1 left off. Lucy and Heath are getting married now you think Will and Heath would learn their lessons with secrets but do they? J.M. Witt did a great job with Lucy,Heath and Will's story. So much packed into a short book. I really do enjoy how J.M. Witt split the story into three different books with the different titles instead of making on book.
These stories are paced quickly, which is nice for a short, entertaining read. However, the swiftness in storytelling comes with a rushed plot and a but more telling than showing the reader. While the plot itself is good, the execution could use a but more finesse. There is potential here and I was certainly entertained, I just wished it was a little bit more.
What will Lucy say to Heath's real proposal in the beginning of the book? Will they get married? If they do, will they stay together? What does a secret that Heath is keeping from Lucy mean to everyone? What happens when it is finally revealed? I for one, can't wait for the last book to find out! This is a must read!
Heath has been in love with Lucy since he was 18. He has never told her but now is his chance to let her know how much he does. Both like to fight with each other and the back and forth is great. Will they get their forever? Read to find out!! Highly recommended.
This story is just amazing... I love it... seriously I can't wait to read more... I love how it keeps you wanting more. It is funny and lots of sweet moments and the love scenes are very sexy....
Honor picks up right where Trust left off but this time we are in Heath’s head. Deliciously sexy, Heath., you can’t help but love him even with all his faults. So what if those faults include keeping a pretty big secret and lying to the one woman you supposedly have had a thing for as long as you can remember, we still love you! With that being said, I knew there was more to the story than Heath was letting on. When Lucy realizes that Heath is the one waiting for her at the aisle, all she wants to do is run. Run like she did all those years ago.
After much persuasion, Lucy gives in and decides to give her marriage to Heath a shot. They embark on their honeymoon and boy do the sparks start to fly. We finally get what we wanted from these two when we first met them in Trust. JM Witt does not disappoint when writing a sex scene. Wow! When the honeymoon comes to an end, it is evident that Heath and Lucy might truly develop feelings for one another. Weeks go by and all seems fine and dandy in the Kerrigan house. That is until the big secret that Heath has been hiding comes out.
Will Lucy be able to forgive Heath, or will she continue running; running from her past and her future?
I could not put this book down. Once I finished it I immediately one clicked Love because I needed to know what happened with Heath and Lucy. I wanted them to have the happily ever after that they were destined to have 11 years ago whether they wanted to admit it or not.
