Secrets and Lies #3
Concealed
Mia Ryan's past and present are about to collide in startling ways, leaving her to question everything she's ever known about herself.
After a shocking turn of events that revealed some mind-blowing secrets, Mia becomes more determined than ever to take back her life from the darkness that's consumed her. In her pursuit for answers, she quickly discovers that parts of her past, which have always been a mystery, might be the key to saving the ones she loves...and the man that stole her heart.
Ethan Fitzgerald knows that things are never what they seem. Taking down his father's empire wasn't supposed to be a challenge-that was before Mia Ryan waltzed through his door. Forever changed by a love that reignites his purpose in life, Ethan is willing to do whatever it takes to protect Mia, and his enemies know it.
In this edge of your seat finale of the Secrets and Lies series, the stakes are higher than they've ever been before. Can Mia and Ethan's relationship withstand the malicious forces threatening them, or is letting go the answer that saves them and the ones they love? Everything comes at a cost-and it might just be true love.

This is book three in the Secrets and Lies series. Book three starts where book two ends so make sure you read the previous books first.
Ethan and Mia's journey is a must read. So happy to read more of the characters we met in previous books. My emotions were all over the place reading this series.
I can't put into words how fantastic this book was. From start to finish I was literally gripped. I thought the author did a wonderful job with the conclusion of this series. As with previous books it's an action packed read full of mystery and romance. The twists and turns just kept coming.
These books will certainly be staying on my kindle for a re-read. Amazing series.

**arc received for honest review **
"They’ll fuel the fire within my soul to take every fucking person out that even remotely tries to get in my way from here on out."
Book 3 picks up straight where book 2 finishes. Finally we will get some answers of the corrupt underworld, mobs and politicians.
“Entering the devil’s lair is just asking for trouble. We have that in spades as it is."
Mia and Ethan are trying to uncover the webs of corruption they need to find out who is calling the shots and who is playing for who.
While Mia is dealing with the loss of friends and family she also has to deal with Nick and Lizzy.
She doesn't know if she should trust them after everything they have done.
Her memory of her child hood is coming back in her dreams some are scary some are giving her answers to what they need to know to uncover the web.
Ethan is trying to keep Mia safe along with his friends.
He wants vengeance.
He won’t stop until he gets it.
Ethan thinks being around Mia is clouding his judgement and isn't seeing things clear so he does the one thing he can think of to keep them all safe.
He goes off alone.
No contact with Mia.
No contact with his friends.
"I sped away from the only person I’d ever loved."
As the book comes towards the end Mia and Ethan uncover the mystery of all the players but is it to late?
More lives are lost.
There are casualties.
There is heart break.
Can Mia and Ethan get there happy ever after?
Will they be able to lead a normal life?
Or will they always be tied to the mob that they were born into?
"The torment my body felt was something I’d never experienced before. Years of brutal beatings felt like a walk in the park compared to the pain consuming every part of me now. My legs barely carried me to the stairwell."
What an amazing book!! We were gripped from the very 1st page and couldn’t put it down until we passed out and fell asleep that’s the only way we stopped reading. We found ourselves waking up early hours of the morning just to keep reading we loved this series but we are so sad to see it end!
Some parts were heartbreaking and had tears pouring down our face at the heart break Mia and Ethan went through.
There are so many players in the book that we could go on forever about them we loved Bri and Trey and the heart break that she went through with her father was so painful to read, and Micah where do you start with him from Book 1 once we found what he had done for Mia, the way he come back in book 3 some parts you wanted to stomp on his head but the way he loved her and the way he protected her and was he savior. The bond and connection between Try, Micah and Mia is a once in a life time and to know that Micah was there to protect her and the way he put his life on the line was heart breaking!! We were a big fan by the end of the book!!
We were taken on an emotional roller coaster all the way through this series but book 3 really topped it off!
Thank you M. M. Koenig for an amazing adventure!
"The way you survive the shittier times is by accepting that the trials and tribulations you’re going through today are preparing you for something down the road that might be twice as challenging. It also teaches you to have a greater appreciation for all the good things that happen in between.”

10 Fabulous Stars
I was given this book for my honest review
“I opened my mouth, but the fierceness behind Yaya’s glare kept me from saying a word. “There are very few people in this world that get to experience a love like yours. The connection between your two souls transcends time and space. Don’t let the world take that away from you. I want you both to promise me that you’ll do whatever it takes to hold on to it.” Yaya to Mia and Ethan
This is the 3rd book and final book in the Secret and Lies Series and needs to be read in order.
I wanted to do a review that so expresses this most awesome of books but to no avail I couldn’t really come up with anything that would do the book justice. So with that said.
THE END IS ABOUT THE JOURNEY
Mia and Ethan’s journey will never be final in a lot of our hearts as readers. As we read this final book the entrancement that this author creates is just not swoon worthy but of a magnificent descent. The turmoil, the love, the heartbreak, the laughter, the tears are what brings the hearts of Mia, Ethan and their friends together in this final farewell. Each has endured so much with each turn of the page that one can only say “Oh No” or “Wow”. The self realization that comes about each character is just awe.
FRIENDSHIP CIRCLE
A circle has no beginning and no end is so true when reading this book. The friends of Mia and Ethan are not just friends but family within. No matter what happens true friends always have ones back no matter the turmoil, the fight and love. No one will judge ones actions, but what they will do is have the support, the shoulder one needs to cry on and the heart to get one through it all no matter the consequence on the current horizon.
To the author: I have no words to say that will transcend this book. I hope your readers enjoy this book as much as I did. Time does not standstill but what it does do is bring us each a new revelation each day and with Mia and Ethan you brought that popping from the pages.
Happy Reading

**** I Love Story Time was gifted an arc copy in exchange of an honest review ****
4.5 Stars!
I have been following this series from the beginning! All 3 books are full of twist and turns and trying to figure out who did what and who's in charge of who. If you're someone that likes a good mystery along with a love story, this is definitely for you! I have really grown to love all the characters throughout this series. Some more then others, but they all have had a great impact on the story. There is so much that goes on in this book! At times, I wanted to skim in some areas that I didn't think were as important; mainly the sex scenes. Don't get me wrong! I don't mind them, but I just wanted to find all the answers for the questions that I have been left with from the previous books.
I really did enjoy this story. I would rate this series an overall 5 stars. There were some areas I liked and some I could have done without, but all in all, I did enjoy it. However, what I will say is that I LOVED Micah and I'm SO SAD!!!!!! I know he's the "ex-boyfriend" and her heart is with Ethan, but mine belonged to Micah!! He loved Mia so much! I had my heart break over and over in this story for him every time he would say something super sweet to Mia.....
“You’ve done a very good job at convincing everyone you’re fine. I know better. A lot’s happened in the past month. Nobody would be fine. I just want you to know –I’m always here for you.”
“I’ll take you any way I can have you. Being away from you shattered me. If being friends is what you want, then that’s what you’ll get,”
The one that hurt the most was.....
“We were together for five years. You’ve been with him for a few months. What does he have that I don’t?” Micah asked bitterly.
OMG...I was so crying for him when I read that. I just wanted to jump in the story and tell him.... "Choose me... pick me.... love me!" LOL. Then the ending...OMG!!!!!! Talk about UGLY CRY!!!! Ugh!!!! I just couldn't believe it and I seriously did NOT see THAT coming!!! What a way to end Concealed! Seriously...my mind is blown!

Concealed is the final book in the Secrets and Lies Series by M.M. Koenig. I am sad that this amazingly action packed series that has kept me on the edge of my seat with all of its twists, turns and revelations has come to an end but in true M.M. Koenig style she DID NOT disappoint in the slightest! This fantastic conclusion was a 4.5 star read for me and if you haven't yet picked up this series, I suggest you drop what you are reading now and get to it because you will become enthralled in the lives of Ethan and Mia as I have.
Although M.M. Koenig does not gift wrap this ending, it couldn't have been more perfect because life isn't all about perfection, and all of the difficulties, tragedies, and horrors that Ethan and Mia have had to endure throughout this series, wouldn't have been worth it, had their ending been easily delivered with a bow on top. I love love loved how each character that was in the first two books, no matter how big or small a part they played in Ethan and Mia's life, was wrapped up so that the reader was given closure on their story!
There are part of this book that will have you wanting to throw your kindle at the wall in frustration with either Ethan or Mia's behavior or both, you will grab for the tissues while tears stream down your face as the unexpected happens and smiling at the way this group of friends rally's around each other no matter the gravity of the situation to offer support, whether emotional or physical.
I cannot wait for more from this author and I know that once you read you will become a fan of her work for life as I have!

Overall series rating: 3.5 stars
With the final book in this series, I found more of the same as in the first two. If you've read my previous reviews, you already know that I think this storyline is too focused in the bedroom. It makes me wonder if the author wrote it that way on her own, or if someone was reading over her shoulder telling her "Put in more sex! Sex sells!" No matter, it's there and it is plentiful.
I wanted far more plot development. Give me two or three steamy scenes and I'm good. This is, after all, romantic suspense and not erotica. If I'm in the mood for erotica, trust me, I've got plenty on my Kindle to satisfy that craving.
I had high hopes for this series. That's why I'm so critical of it. The bones of the plot were wonderful. But instead of Mia's sexual attraction to Ethan complimenting the story, it completely overshadowed it.
Another thing I disliked was that I felt there were way too many secondary characters. Give me Mia, Ethan, Micah, Trey and Bri. There are two other characters that belong in that group, but I don't want to spoil anything. That's who I wound up caring about. I thought all the way through that Jackson and Shane could have been interchangeable, and the story wouldn't have been lacking without them. And Ethan's many friends? I didn't care about any of them or their women. Sorry.
Getting past the sex and the twenty other characters that didn't need to be there, when the author went into full blown romantic suspense mode, this series was pretty enjoyable. Unfortunately, in my opinion, by whittling out the filler, it could have been two books instead of three.

Yet again M. M. Koenig has left me speechless with her incredible emotional roller coaster and I am both sad and happy to have an ending to The Secrets and Lies series.
It was amazingly written, well thought through and smoldering HOT and I for one will recommend it (and the other two) to as many people as will listen. It simply HAS NO MATCH and I wish for every book lover to experience and be swept into this whirlwind series of strong emotions and adrenaline filled action, which leaves your heart in your throat at every turn. Not to mention the depth of the characters; both main and secondary ones.
It is no lie that Ethan has been my absolute favorite Book Boyfriend since I read the first book of this series and after this third book he so absolutely continues to be, nor is it a lie when I tell you that Mia is one of the strongest female leads I have had the pleasure of getting to know, to date, either: These characters really are that amazingly thought out!
Along with countless others, I was anxious for this last installment and now that it is finally out I can only say that Koenig delivered us the best possible ending.
She (along with Ethan and Mia) lived so completely up to my expectations by giving me the ending I craved and dreamed of and though this book also left me absolutely heartbroken and furious at times I have nothing but love for it.

This book dives straight where it ended in part 2. Mia comes face to face with the reality of her parents being alive and her running away from her past in order to keep the ones she loves safe, due to the ever dangerous web she seems to be the centre of. Ethan's fierce loyalty and love for Mia sets him on a non-stop mission to find and protect her at all cost while desperately trying to avenge the evil forces that continue to corrupt and harm his life and the greater of society.
In this the final book of the Secret and Lies series we are thrown into a tailspin of so much that at times if felt like overload having to deal with all the different reveals. I felt at times it just became too much and while reading I needed to take a break and come back to the story because of the multitude of information you had to process. I was also deeply sadden by the amount of heartbreak these characters faced it seem too much and I cried throughout my read especially for Micah.
In the end a sense of peace was finally restored but I could not bring myself out of the melancholy state I was in.

This was my first series by M. M. Koenig, but it surely will not be my last. I did start with book 1 Conflicted. This series was amazing and I can't believe I hadn't heard about this author or series before. It had everything I love in a story - from the plot, to the characters and everything in between. It will literally tug at your heart strings! The twists and turns for Ethan and Mia will leave you not wanting to put the book down. M.M. Koenig weaves a dynamic story while developing the characters that make you become invested in them. This is a must read series for me and one of the Top Ten Series that I have read in 2015.

Ok so.. this is the last book in the series. I enjoyed the plot (which I think was solid), I enjoyed Mia and Ethan ' s love story. But I was over the sex scenes. At some point it just felt like too much, like the author was trying to hard as far as that went.
I still think it's a decent series but when r he plot really had nothing to do with the sex (unlike 50 Shades or the like) it becomes too much.

WOW, this book left nothing unsaid. It tied the story of Mia and Ethan together beautifully. I felt every emotion while reading their final story, I literally laughed, cried, yelled, got angry. Wonderful series.

What a wonderful roller coaster to end the series with! I cried a lot, and wanted to throw my kindle, there were twists I didn't expect, and my heart burst with love for there characters. Mia and Ethan's love adventure is wrapped up in a beautiful way and I loved almost every minute of the ride.
I definitely recommend this whole series to read... and some stock in Kleenex. :wink:

Great story
What what an amazing story and journey I went in with this book. I laughed and cried. I couldn’t put it down at times. I feel like I really got to know a lot about each of these characters and can’t wait to read more about Jackson and Bri and Treys story. I love how it ended. Your my new favorite author!

I can't believe that the Secrets & Lies Series is over. This will ultimately always be on my to read list, and re-read list. There wasn't a moment in this series that I was disappointed. At all. M.M. Koenig has really outdone herself, and I am thrilled that I have been able to watch M.M. Koenig grow with her writing style, as well as with the characters.
Concealed picks up right where Complicated left off. We were left with a sense of curiosity as we waited (im)patiently to learn what had happened with Mia since we last saw her in Complicated, and WOW. Absolutely blown away by the scenarios that took place in Concealed. There was so much that I was absolutely not prepared for. Moments of utter sadness where I wanted to sob for hours on end, and not even look at my Kindle again, and moments of anger that made me want to throw my Kindle across the room. She did it again, ladies and gentleman, and I swear if you haven't picked up this series, you are missing out!
The feelings between Mia, and Ethan are still there. Ethan through all the chaos that they have been rung through, they still seek each other out, and come to the conclusion that no matter what happens they have to be there for one another. And they are in so many ways than just one. They were regretfully pulled apart, away from each other, and to top it all off Mia is flown all over different parts of the world. With no contact from her loved ones, she isn't really sure as to what is happening back in Chicago, or if Ethan is sticking to his side of their deal.
I really don't want to give anything away. I will say this; the whole gang is back. From Bri and Trey, to MICAH who I hated in the beginning of Concealed (again, because he wasn't my favorite character back in Conflicted) who I feel finally learned his wrong doings were certainly wrong doings. The passion between Mia and Ethan is still there, and I swear it is even hotter in Concealed than the other two books. Between them being away from each other more than they ever have been, and the love they feel for one another...WOWZA.
A wonderful, wonderful read by a wonderful, wonderful author who really takes the time to listen to what her readers want. Congratulations on a successful series, M.M. Koenig!! I am looking forward to any other books, or series that come from this author, and you should be, too!

Concealed is the third and final book in this series and its great and sad all at the same time. I have waited a while to get this story in my hands and let me tell you it was so worth the wait. This book most definitely earned the highest of the stars which is 5 by book world standard but I would give it much higher if I could. This book is part of series so can not be read as a standalone so you need to pick up Conflicted book 1 and Complicated book 2. I am so happy that I took a chance on this series almost a year ago because it was freaking amazing. M.M. Koenig has earned a fan girl for life from me. I am happy that Ethan and Mia finally got there ending because boy oh boy did they go through some twists and turns to get there.
I am at a loss for words on how much this series has come to mean to me and will stay with me for a long time to come. This is definitely an on the edge of your seat kind of romance and I have said it before but I will say it again this series would be great as a movie... no it deserves to be more than just a book because it has everything anyone could want in a story.
Through out this series we have hand many questions as to why Ethan and Mia have had all the hard times that had but no worries this book will finally reveal all the secrets and lies we have been given throughout this journey and you will be pleasantly surprised in parts, painstakingly sad in others, and downright murderous at times.. oh and maybe a little turned on! Ok a whole lotta turned on!
Oh and if you thought book 2 was action packed you just wait because wow this book is an intense ride of passion and danger.
I am going to miss Ethan and his bad boy ways and Mia and her sassy attitude but most of all every character that was lost in this story will hold a place in my heart for eternity. But no worries I know there is more to come from this author and maybe even a little more from the side characters in this series... I am personally hoping for a little Jackson love!!!!
On a personal note thanks M.M. Koenig for a fantastic story and I look forward to so much more from you in the near future!

This series consumed my soul. I knew that when I received the e-mail for the impending release of Concealed that I was going to emotionally go one of two ways: Bat shit crazy excited or scared senseless. The way the second book, Complicated, ended, I just wasn’t sure what life would have in store for Mia and Ethan. My heart broke with Mia’s ill-timed decision and I ached for resolution for these two characters. I had so many questions surrounding the grand reveal at the end of Complicated that I knew Concealed would be one hell of a book. My suspicions weren’t wrong.
As infuriating as Ethan has been in the past, Mia has stepped up into her own level of stubborn laced infuriating ways. There were so many times in this novel that I wanted to reach in and literally smack the two of these characters for some of their decisions. You’ll know what I mean when you get to those parts. I mean come on… how much bloodshed is enough for these two characters?
Just went you think that the all clear will be sounded in their rocky relationship in steps trouble in multiple forms. I know that I said Complicated was an emotional rollercoaster read, but Concealed makes book #2 looks like a children’s book with emotional feels. I bawled my eyes out in two distinct parts of this book, again you’ll know what I mean when you get there. Koenig ripped my heart from my chest so many times that I had to step away for a bit before I picked up reading the next chapter.
Concealed is the perfect conclusion to this amazing series. The ending is satisfying enough that readers will find closure with their favorite characters. I’ll admit that I am sad to see this series end, but I am very exciting to see what the brilliant mind of M.M. Koenig comes up with next! Let’s just hope it’s sooner rather than later!!!

~*~ Obsessed by Books copy given in exchange for an honest review ~*~
"That's how these rabbit holes work. I'm still spiraling down my own. Its a goddamn miracle I haven't lost my mind with everything I've learned."
Everything Mia believes about herself is a lie, the revelations at the end of book 2 lead Mia to leave with her parents, Lizzie and Nick, who are deep within the FBI. Treading carefully and playing the game Mia does everything she can to feign innocence and learn more about the events of her past that ended up in the tragedy of her present. Separated from Ethan and her family of choice, not blood, Mia is slowly unraveling. Grasping any stolen moments with Ethan, their passion blazes brighter than ever before as their desperation to end the high stakes game of chess build to a startling crescendo.
The third and final book in this series is a well written, carefully planned and smoothly executed story involving the Mob, FBI and other people in power that abuse their positions. Power corrupts and the rot runs deep. Uncovering the source of the rot comes at a high price and unfortunately for our lovers the rot runs deeper than first conceived. You will be on the edge of your seat as the past slowly comes back to Mia in her dreams and more information comes to light. The loss and pain of the past echoes into their present as the ghosts refuse to remain silent. Family vendettas never die and their is a price to be paid. Blood is spilled, not everyone will survive but justice will be served.
An awesome non stop action packed romantic thriller that will keep you guessing right to the end. Tempered with poignant human moments and the enviable grief of losing family members this book really is an emotional rollercoaster. A must read!
A four and a half star read.

Thank you M.M. Koenig for an amazing series. These characters, all of them, are among my favorites now in my reading history. I've only read a few MOB related books and didn't know what to expect. I loved these books, you did an incredible job.
Concealed is the Third and final book in the Secrets and Lies Series and if you haven't read Conflicted or Complicated, please grab them, you won't be disappointed.
Mia is determined to save the ones she loves. As she learns some deep dark secrets about her past, which are coming to light, those secrets might factor in to help. She is determined to take back her life and protect what's hers. She wants her and Ethan to have their happily ever after, if that's possible. She tries working things by herself and doing things on her own.
Ethan is trying to work things from his side. He knows that things aren't always what they seem. His father's empire wasn't going to be easy to take down but he's determined. His promise to his mother, still at the front of his mind. Ethan's love of Mia has him at a disadvantage because he'll do what it takes to protect her and all know it.
The perfect ending to the Secrets and Lies Series kept me on the edge of my seat through the whole story. Of course I was cheering for Ethan and Mia to get their happily ever after and for the other characters to get the endings they were wanting as well. I laughed, cried, cringed and white-knuckled in several spots through this series. It's a well-written, action-packed, fun, sexy, omg what's gonna happen next, awesome story. So, so happy that I read.

This was such a bittersweet read for me because I have absolutely loved Ethan and Mia and this was their last book! They are on my top book couple list.
Ethan is an Alpha sex on stick. The man loves with everything he has and will go above and beyond for Mia. Mia is sassy and I loved how much she had developed in this book. She was kickass. Like I said it’s going to be hard to forget them. This book was phenomenal. This book revealed all the secrets and pasts. You will be shocked on what is revealed and everything that happens. It was also an emotional read as well. Grab your tissues and be prepared.
This will probably be the shortest review out of the books, but it’s for your own good. I promise! So much happens that I don’t want to spoil it for those who haven’t read it. If you are like me, I was anxiously waiting for this book because I had to know how this all ended. Like I said, it was an emotional rollercoaster. There are moments when your heart will break and there were times I squeezed my kindle to death thinking WTH! I will say M. M. Koenig left me with my heart full. I loved seeing Mia’s Friends and Ethan’s friends along this book.
I highly recommend this series! This book has it all! This is one of my top favorite series. All the characters in the book were awesome. I hope maybe we will see a spin off possibly then I could snip-its of Ethan and Mia! A girl can wish right!

Wow. That pretty much sums up my feelings on the finale to a great series.
I feel like we’ve been following this intricate web of lies trying to see the small thread of truth where it all started. Because we all know that deception stems from some form of fact, and that’s exactly what happens in this book. The truth can’t be concealed anymore, and everything crashes down around Mia and Ethan—literarily in some cases.
I’m not going to go on summarizing the story, but I will say, be prepared for an emotional rollercoaster. Your head will spin, you’ll be flipping the pages fast to find out what is going on. But what you will also see is some major character development happening in this book. Both Mia and Ethan undergo a transformation that is a result of everything, but also I think it showcases their true morals. And as the thread of lies begins to unravel, Mia really holds her own in this book. Not only with the events that happen around her, but with all her relationships that evolve and mature.
So grab your favorite comfort foods (you’ll need them), the tissue box (there will be tears of all varieties), and a good drink, you’re in for one amazing end to a series that you won’t want to put down. So five big stars, and a huge bravo to M. M. Koenig for a fantastic end to a tantalizing series!

CONCEALED by M.M. Koenig is the third and final book in this suspenseful series, this book will shock you and keep you on the edge of your seat.
The story in this book is very well written and developed and the plot is very fast paced and will keep you guessing till the very last chapter as to what is going on and who will still be alive by the end of the book. The characters in this book are something else, the love that Ethan and Mia share can be felt pouring off the pages of the book, and all the friends the surround them are what true family is all about.
This book is full of twists and turns that will throw your whole view of the story out of whack, for most of the book I was not sure whether I was coming or going. So much happened in this book, the story will suck you in and pull you along for Mia and Ethan's journey. In this book we will see a kidnapping of sorts, a few weddings, a birth of a baby, and a bunch of friends that attempt and take down of some mob bosses. Who will be alive by the end of the book??? Will Ethan and Mia be able to take down the Mob???
CONCEALED by M.M. Koenig was a great book, I have really enjoyed reading Ethan and Mia's story, their love will push above the rest of the story and outshine everything else that Mia and Ethan goes through. I would give CONCEALED 4/5 stars.

I just do not know what to say anymore about this series !! I am blown away , I felt so many emotions reading this 3rd and final book. Heartache , love , happiness , anger , you name it and I felt it. I think the best part of this besides getting the answers and having some closure was the DUAL POV !! I love dual or multiple POV and I absolutely LOVE male POV !! Finally being in Ethan's head was AMAZING !! Obviously having Ethan and Mia in 2 different areas required the dual POV but none the less I loved finally being with Ethan and knowing his thoughts. At the end of book 2 there was so much devastation and hurt that I was worried about so many characters not just Ethan and Mia. Their friends , they gave up so much to help and they lost so much for no gain of their own. Ethan is now on a mission to not only find Mia and save her BUT also avenge the destruction caused by his enemies. Ethan finds himself teamed up with an unlikely person and Mia finds herself stuck with her miserable parents and I honestly couldn't get a feel for them. Thankfully we are not left hanging but once again this book was jam packed with so much it was exhausting and amazing !! I am so glad I finally had the time to read this series !! I look forward to seeing what else this author has to offer !!

This is the third and final book in the Secrets and Lies series by M M Koenig, and this book did not disappoint.
This book finally gives you all the answers you've waited for. Things certainly don't get any easier for Ethan, Mia and all their friends. This book had me on such an emotional roller coaster that I had to stop half way through and take a few days to regroup.
From the start of this series I've always loved Ethan, and had a love hate relationship towards Micah; and that remained the case throughout this book, there was a part of the book that I just wanted to slap Micah for the way he acts, but in other parts my heart broke and the tears freely flowed for him, on that I will say no more!
Overall I have thoroughly enjoyed this series, I will be honest and say that there were probably too many sex scenes, when all I wanted was to know 'who done it'. For me personally I didn't let that get me down, I just skimmed over those sections.
I would recommend this series, but be prepared, you will need tissues, and if you are anything like me you will probably feel a little frustrated with certain characters and parts of the storyline, but stick with it in the end it will be worth it.

I have been desperately waiting for the conclusion to Mia and Ethan's story as I was hooked from the start and this did not disappoint at all. I'm surprised that I have any fingernails left as this kept me on edge throughout.
It was action packed and fast paced as the secrets and lies start to reveal themselves and unravel to bring this series to its terrifying conclusion. Mia and Ethan have certainly grown as characters throughout this series, and whilst at times they were still frustrating, their love for each other is the only certainty in amongst a world of uncertainties. There are plenty of raw and emotional moments as tragedy strikes. All of the characters fit together and there are a number that grow on you as the story unfolds.
This was some fantastic writing by M.M. as she blended all the elements together seamlessly and kept me on the edge of my seat. I am sad that this journey is over but it was an amazing journey.

The past Mia Ryan wasn't even aware she had until recently has caught up with her. Now, she has to scramble to learn her own history in order to keep it from destroying her and those close to her. Secrets and lies are buried deep and collateral damage piles up as Mia and Ethan, the man she loves, try to find answers. There are so many bad guys that it's hard to narrow down which ones are responsible and how far reaching the corruption goes. As they follow the chain, it leads to the highest levels of power in different organizations. My favorite thing about this series is the mystery behind...everything. It's an intricate web that keeps you guessing, and the love and sacrifice is heartbreaking. Mia and Ethan are steamy as hell, but have a lot of obstacles to deal with. Thanks to a tight knit group of friends, they don't have to do it alone. This is the third and last book in the Secrets and Lies Series.

This is Book 3 of 3 in a series that MUST be read in order to grasp the entire storyline.
When I first found this series, I was immediately drawn to it. I love romantic suspense, with an incredible plot, and amazing characters. From the very beginning, I was drawn in, and fell in love with the characters and what they stood for. I knew this series was going to be something special.
This book is the conclusion to Ethan and Mia's journey. They have been put through some tests and trials, and Concealed is no different. Just when you think you have the next thing figured out, M.M. Koenig throws in a curveball that leaves you reeling. I laughed, I sobbed, I yelled. I felt every emotion in the spectrum throughout the story, and was left completely satisfied by the end.
Be sure to pick up this amazing conclusion, as it her most explosive yet, and you won't be disappointed!

This was my first series by M. M. Koenig, but it surely will not be my last. I did start with book 1 Conflicted. This series was amazing and I can't believe I hadn't heard about this author or series before. It had everything I love in a story - from the plot, to the characters and everything in between. It will literally tug at your heart strings! The twists and turns for Ethan and Mia will leave you not wanting to put the book down. M.M. Koenig weaves a dynamic story while developing the characters that make you become invested in them. This is a must read series for me and one of the Top Ten Series that I have read in 2015.

Awesome storytelling! Action, adventure, suspense and sex!!
I got really wrapped up in these, involved with the characters and their lives. I had a few issues with some of their decisions, but hey, we all have friends who make bad choices, right? I think the fact that these characters are flawed makes them more believable and relatable.
As an independent reviewer for Paranormal Romance and Authors that Rock, I give this final episode of the trilogy a firm four fangs for the tears I shed.
