Riley Simmons has her back against the wall and goes on the hunt for a discrete encounter that could solve her problems—at least temporarily. She finds her way into the world of escorting through a service that boasts only the most exclusive of clients. What does she have to lose? Her dignity? That went out with the eviction notice and she knows desperate times bring even more desperate measures. Alexander Maxwell is a very wealthy man. He has everything he could want, but when he sees Riley's profile on a high end escort site, he begins to wonder if something is missing. He knows he has the means to take care of a woman like her, but in exchange, he has a set of specific demands. Starting with exclusivity. Alexander's offer is tantalizing, almost too good to be true, but will Riley be able to let herself go? Or, will she realize that escort is just another name for hooker and run away before she gets hooked?
K.B. Winters has done it again heating up my e-reader with another scorching series. Hooked is absolutely amazing! I cannot get enough of this series even when I'm screaming at the top of my lungs because KB has punted me over the proverbial cliff at the end.
As this series progresses it just continues to get better and better and for all intents and purposes "Hooks" the reader from the start. Book 2 picks up and Riley is just this amazing character who seems to finally have things going her way until she does the unthinkable. She starts to have feelings for the man that doesn't have feelings, the contract was designed against it. However if that wasn't enough our amazing main character meets another man who also seems to send tingles down her spine. Uh oh this isn't something that's going to go over well..At least I hope not!
The chemistry between the Alexander and Riley is fantastic, almost magnetic the way the two are drawn together! This book is full of action, drama, suspense and I have to say the cliff at the end will have you screaming or throwing your e-reader and cursing while you wait for the next installment!
This was one fantastic book! If you haven't had a chance to download or read it don't wait!
Very Strong four feathers!!! Loved this book very much! Great concept and although the male lead is hard core at first he’s really very sweet.
Riley is so likable and Alex is just so….well dreamy comes to mind first. He’s got serious trust issues but Riley is definitely the woman to make him see that not all women are out to nag the billionaire.
Riley wants her prince charming. She truly doesn’t care what he does or how much money he has. She wants the true love. To know that she loves someone with her whole heart and that she’s getting back his whole heart too.
But when Alex thinks the worst of her and she’s forced to quit the job she loves and walk away from the man she loves what will happen to her? She doesn’t really have anyone. She’s always just stayed to herself so she doesn’t have a ton of friends. She moved from home so her family isn’t there.
Will Alex come to realize he had what he always wanted right in front of him? Can Riley forgive him?
K.B. Winters is a fantastic author!!! I’ve read many of her books and never been disappointed. This series is quick and fun and seriously HOT but also sweet.
KB Winters I just want you to know that when I get to the end of your books I quietly closes my ereader and chuck it across the room. The cliff hangers that you leave us with are the highlights of the books, you have a way of making sure we are coming back for more.
Riley thinks she has the best of both worlds, Alexander gave her the job of his personal assistant (even though there are those in the office that think she should not have) and then they still have their arrangement for "special nitghts togehter" outside of the office. Riley is happy, she can pay her bills and rent and still have money left over.
What will happen though when Riley meets a man who gives her sparks, the same way that Alexander does, will she go out with him??? and what will happen when Riley realizes she that she is falling for Alexander (that is clearly breaking the rules of the contract)?
In book 2 you of course are left pretty much hanging on that edge of the cliff by your tippy toes. I really have a love/hate relationship with cliff hangers but K.B. never does you wrong and always makes it up in the next one. I love the suspense of wondering what will happen in the next but then again I NEED to know right now. HAHAHA Great job K.B.
In this book Riley feels like everything in her life is going really good. She has a great job and even though some don't think she deserves it, she bust her butt to prove them wrong. Her arrangement with Alexander is going strong and she is loving every minute of it but what happens when someone else takes an interest with her? Will she attempt more with that person and possibly ruin everything that she has going on with Alexander? Who is this mystery man?
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I feel the same about this cliff hanger as I did about book 1 but I'm loving this series!!! As Riley and Alexander's arrangement starts to heat up in the bedroom as well as the office a curve ball gets thrown in the mix and could just ruin the way everything is going. Riley feels like her life is going in the right direction even though her co-workers arent being very nice. I feel like Alexander is starting to really have feelings for Riley beyond their arrangement. The curve ball just might ruin everything but we won't know till the next book, which I can't wait for!
Sorry people, KB Winters has taken us over one cliff only to push us towards another. Yes this book is even better than Hooked Book 1. I can’t believe the chemistry between Riley and Alexander. Throw in Lucas and your kindle may not only heat up, but short circuit. Who is Lucas? Sorry, that will give too much info. You will have to read the books. You will need to start with book 1 and believe me you will be Hooked.

Riley and Alex have been abe to keep things professional at work for the most part and her after hours contract seperated. Sure people got suspicious of Riley but she didn't really pay to much attention to them.
When she meets Lucas walking home from a bus stop on night after work things get revealed but just how much.
Alex never mentioned he had a brother. Lucas never mention his brother's name. When a chance meeting Lucas at her job thing got interesting. What will be revealed between Lucas and Alex.
Holy hotness! Riley and Alexander are definitely holding up their contract but can she remain unemotionally involved? Will Alexander want more or will he agree to let her go when it's time? When Riley runs into an acquaintance and gets the tingles, will she remember her contract? Will she stay loyal to her lover/boss? Will Alexander find out? Great story, incredible ending. Hooked 2 is a must read!
Hooked 2 will have you on the edge of your seat and cursing at your ereader just like book 1 did!!
This is such a great series, so far! Alexander and his hot mess self!! He's totally getting "hooked" on Riley and she's getting "hooked" on him!! Which makes for a totally amazing book!!
Can't wait to see what book 3 will bring now that Riley has an interest in someone else!!
Loving this series, they met because she was desperate for money, then they have really grown with an attraction to each other, even though he is saying he doesn't want a relationship! She runs into Lucas, he wants to take her out, but she did sign a contract of inclusivity, what will happen next, will she lose Alex? Will she lose her job, great story line, loving this new series!❤️❤️.
Riley and Alexander are back in book two of this short story. Riley is a little more financially stable thanks to Alexander. She runs into another man one day and sets up a date with him. However it goes against their agreement. Alex is still a demanding man. I wish I knew more about him. Maybe one day we will get a book in his point of view. I still wish this was longer and possibly as one book. I feel like it could be a great whole length novel with lots of details. 4 stars
I am loving this series. It's a great quick read. You really get into the emotions and then bam, cliffhanger. LOVE IT! Riley and Alexander are hot. Lucas enters this book a little more. Can't wait to see what happens next.
I was yelling at my ereader at how these two are and then you throw in another complication. Cliffhanger please..... I need book 3. I'm love it and my honest opinion give me more please your such a great writer.
Dang it she did it again, you have to wait till the next book to find out what happens. Brother's, what a interesting place to be in the middle of the of them . Now to see how this one ends.
