Synopsis
They say that when a love burns too bright, it’s bound to burn out—especially those wrapped in secrets and doused in lies.
After a risk is taken and a confession is made, one relationship heats up while another hangs in the balance. When everything rests on shaky ground, we find the stability we need tangled up in each other. Guards are let down and trust is repaired, but all vulnerability comes with a side of weakness. And the betrayal that hits us is one we never saw coming.
Revenge is a dangerous game, especially when fueled by jealousy. We’ll do whatever it takes to protect our own, even if it means seeking help from unlikely sources. While every favor comes at a price, choices made in distress have a tendency to backfire.
As our world comes crashing down around us, loyalties are put to the test. Nothing should be able to shatter the promises we made, but there’s a fine line between tenacious and toxic.
Someone should’ve warned us that even a drop of pretty poison will spread until all that’s left are shattered pieces and broken memories.
This is a full-length novel and book two of three. It cannot be read as a standalone, and it ends with a cliff-hanger. This book contains sensitive topics that may not be suitable for all readers. If needed, you can find a list of trigger warnings on Kelsey Clayton's website. Please read safely.
My Review
α¦ π ππππ ππ
ππππππ ππππππ α¦
Is the second full length romance book in the 'Pretty Poison' trilogy by author Kelsey Clayton. Ends in a cliffy. Heroine: Laiken Hero: Hayes.
Buckle up and get ready for one hell of a ride...This is the continuation of Laiken and Hayes story, it picks up right where the previous book left off, with Hayes dropping it on his best friend that he's involved with his sister, and wanting them to openly showcase their feelings for each other, all of us were left wondering how things were going to pan out between the two best friends. So I for one turned off life when this landed on my ipad, I couldn't wait to dive back into this world.
What you get
π Brothers best friend
π Murder
π Inheritance
π Possessiveness
π Attempted sexual assault
Everything has gone up a notch in this book, when I say everything I mean everything, the spice, the suspense, the feels, the twists.

Around about the halfway mark, as your caught up in all the feels as these two find their happy place, a grenade came hurtling towards them, gone is that bubble which was wrapped around them leaving them at odds. And just when you get over one cliffy, your thrown over another, this one more dire than the previous one. My mind is all scrambled trying to make sense of what/who threw a spanner into the works. God I need that next book!!
