Heat up Your Holidays! Alison Foster is giving away THREE eCopies to help!
Intl where allowed ~ Click on Banner to Enter ~ Ends December 23, 2015
Who could know what their determination to be together would bring? Have they both become targets for danger? Is this the first time their paths have collided? Could it be their last?
A man of mystery and good looks, Jaxson is so much more than a pretty face and a great body. Behind his eyes there is intelligence, strength and love for one woman, the last woman he should bring into the web of his life. Ella never expected to fall for her assignment, but after all, she is a living, breathing woman and chemistry with Jaxson, the real Jaxson is explosive, as in nuclear. The man out of the spotlight is not the man in front of the camera. But does she really know him? When she discovers who he is and what he’s done, will her feelings change? Seems our Jaxson is packing more heat than we knew…
Once again, Alison Foster can be blamed for global warming as she heats up another episode of suspense with a raging inferno of passion. Scandal: Part Two gives the suspense another twist and the passion, another 200 degrees of thermal heat. Wonderful characters that do not out shadow our main players, you still may need a score card to verify who the good guys area and who is in someone’s pocket as these two struggle to stay one step ahead of death while exploring the love they have found.
Great writing, intense scenes and edge of your seat suspense all put together in a small package that packs a lot of heat. Grab the asbestos gloves and a fan, you are going to need it!

Favorite Quotes:
“I fell in love the way a ten-year-old falls in love. It was pure. Joy and breathlessness. I didn’t know the implications of that feeling, how it would survive when everything else in the world and in me changed.”
My Review:
The tension keeps ramping up with conspiracy, intrigue, suspense and erotic sensual scenes – phew. The love story is sweetening, but still more confusion and questions than answers to the mystery. Ms. Foster certainly knows how to build the tension and her cliffhangers are just evil and wicked. I would be stamping my little foot if I did not already have the last installment.

Scandal is the absolute perfect name for this series.
Jaxon is my hero choice. But will be able to keep them alive? I'm determined to continue reading to find out. Especially to get Ella's reaction to coming face to face with her father after all years of abandoning her and her mother. And if help Jaxon and Ella disappear. Greatness!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I absolutely loved being in Jaxson and Ella's tempestuous world again. Alison Foster is a phenomenal writer and knows how to take her readers on a truly suspenseful journey through a dark world full of conspiracy, murder, and sensuality. She has created such a scrumptious character with Jaxson and I love how she gives us a glimpse into his mind and heart. We get to delve under the surface of a gorgeous body and pretty face and become acquainted with the well trained, mysterious, morally sound Jaxson. I am blown away with the immensity of Jaxson's love for Ella. We see more spunk from our Ella who is no shrinking violet. Confusion still surrounds her but more truths are being unveiled to her in every page which makes her love for Jaxson grow along with her fear for his safety. She will stop at nothing to get protect him and get to the truth.
Scandal Part two starts out with Jaxson in jail and we get to see the mystery unfold from there. As the story progresses we get to have some of the reader's questions answered while even more questions are created. There is plenty of action to make James Bond jealous, enough mystery to compete with Sherlock Holmes and so much scorching hot sex that it could melt your kindle. This is a sequel that you don't want to miss. A highly recommended read for a suspenseful journey that will leave you breathless and impatient for more.

I love that Ella and Jaxson have found love with each other and I love that through all of Jaxson's ghosts he stayed in love with the girl next door...

Is this the end of Jaxson and Ella? or can they overcome the obstacles and be together? Just when you think you may have figured out this story Ms. Foster throws in more twists and turns that will have your mind reeling. Danger lurks in every chapter. Ella past comes back to haunt her and she learns secrets of her father who has been absent from her live.
Danger, mobsters, revenge, past secrets, and true love is just the tip of the iceberg in this story. There is not one dull moment in this story. You will be turning page after page to see what Ella and Jaxson get into next. I am glad that part 3 is already out so I can read on.

I received an ARC for an honest review.
First off you need to read book 1 or this will make no sense at all.
Well the plot thickens it has lots of twists and turns.
I try not to do spoilers.
the book made me want to carry on reading and I now want book 3 the books are a very quick read which is good in lots or aspects but not in others because you want to follow it on.
It has been edited well in comparison to other books I have reviewed and the sex scenes are well I think I probably would like the whole series in one book but that is just me because I read fast.
its a good page turner.

I was already keen to see how this storyline progressed, so when I got asked to review an advanced copy I jumped at the chance. What I love about Alison's books is how well thought out and written they are. You have no choice but to become consumed with needing to know what will happen next in Ella & Jax's story. I wanted to know who was targeting Ella and obviously why. But I also want to know more about Jax and the mystery that surrounds him. I really enjoyed the second instalment and am looking for to the next one. Will not disappoint. ☺️

WOWZA. First thank you Ms. Foster for providing me with this book, sorry it took me FOREVER to read it.
That being said ya'll why did I wait to read this book, this might be better than part 1, I love when I start a book and it takes every ounce of my will to stop reading it (I had to go back to work from lunch).
I love the characters and I love their chemistry and dynamic & yay we have another book to read!!! Woohoo. I hope it will not take me months to finish the next one!
Go read this series guys it is a page turner

Given an ARC for an honest review. Alison Foster is giving more suspense and mystery in Scandal Part 2. Ella and Jax are determined to be a part of each others lives. There are more twist and turns. Some of the mystery is revealed but there is so much more to come. What will Ella and Jaxson have to do to be together? What is the danger that they are fighting to survive? I am looking forward to what happens next.

Got this as an arc for an honest review. And really am really getting into this story. And awww, Jaxson (Jack) is taking a piece of my heart. Slowly the pieces are coming together. Looking forward to reading more.
