It seems as I am finding more authors I'm intrigued by that I am willing to read books in parts rather than whole books together and though as a reader this annoys me, it seems sometimes I just have to accept that's the way authors write books! I began reading this ARC in Jan and have been eagerly following what happens next as Carla has teased us in preparation for the upcoming parts.
Now, Torrid Exposure is a bit slow to begin with....it has to be as Carla is building her story. It's a short read but hooks you in by the end and wanting to find out more about April and Bennett. I like how April is trying to follow her own path separate from her rich but secret filled family and with the introduction of Bennett, her childhood frenemy, things are about to take a change of pace between them that neither ever saw coming......
Keeping reading, it's worth it!

....
Very bare story. A majority of the book is about a party she attends for a friend and gets drunk at. Has a fight with her family. Randomly has sex with Bennett, her childhood nemesis, after he takes care of her while being drunk. Ending of the book she’s wondering where they stand after not speaking for three days. Cliff hanger book made for you to buy the other books to understand anything about the storyline. I wasted my time. Don’t waste yours.

Enjoyable
This was a great story. She is trying to make something of herself after college without her family money and they can't understand why. Her first photo job is a family friends son. Things get exciting from there. Want to know what happens in book 2.

Interesting start, however, plot not finished unless you purchase another book.

Disappointment at no ending
Would have liked to have ending. Don't like having to buy second book to see how story ends. Oh well onto another book

A Good Read!
I really enjoyed it, but it was too short. I can't wait to see if April and Bennett get together, and what Spencer is into.

Romance
Not really my kind of book that I like to read. It was ok to have the extra reading material. Maybe this book is for young adults

Great start to a new series. April is trying to separate herself from her rich family and start her photography business, but can you really leave your past behind. I liked the story as well as the characters. Looking forward to more.

I received an ARC and I am leaving a voluntary review.
April is a sweet girl who comes from money, but wants to do good on her own, but first after her parents put her through school. I really understand why her parents is a bit “mad” at her. But she gets a reality check when her “friend” Bennett lays out the facts.
I just want to shake Aprils big sister
All the questions book 2 here I come.
