I have a secret ...
I don't care if you like me or not. 
Insatiable lust for power and control runs thick in my veins. My father served as President of the United States of America-and his father before him. Montgomerys are born to lead and rule, to fear nothing and cower to no one, to make allegiances, not friends. 
But I digress.
With a senate campaign about to launch and presidential aspirations at fever-pitch intensity, imagine my dismay when my strategist tells me I need to "settle down" with a "nice girl" in order to appeal to my constituents. 
Enter Rowan Aldridge, a head-turning stunner with a charm school walk, Jackie O. refinement, and a well-connected family. 
She's perfect.
So I'll do what I have to do, make her believe what I need her to believe, and as soon as the campaign's over and I've secured my senatorial seat, I'll release my pretty little butterfly back into the wild. 
But this isn't about all of that. 
This is what happens when a villain falls in love.… (mere)

Dark Promises is the second book in the duet but can be read as a standalone. It is a loosely based political romance. I liked the first book but not nearly as much as I liked this one.

This reminded me a lot of the movie, How to Lose a Guy in 10 days. Rowan and Keir pretend to like each other in order to get something out of it. Only real feelings get involved. I liked both characters a lot. They had great chemistry and the story line had great fluidity. It kept me engaged throughout the whole story.

I received and advanced readers copy in exchange for an honest review from Hidden Gems.

**I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book**

This plot wasn't what I totally expected, but I'm so glad it surprised me in a really great way!

I completely fell in love with these two and their journey. I loved how they both denied the obvious connection between them. The slow yet heated burn of it all gave this book wonderful tension that had me hooked to see what would happen next.

And I love a good redemption story--and watching Keir's growth from start to end was great. The synopsis almost leads you to believe that Rowan is just a girl who is easily manipulated but that is far from the case! She is so strong (albeit she does have her flaws that she learns to grow from) and is such a genuine heroine that I think readers will love and respect her from the start. I know I did!

This story easily could have been over dramatic but it straddles that perfect line between drama and theatrics. You get enough conflict to provide depth but not so much that it ruins the story.

I didn't read the first book in the series but I definitely will now!

Received an Advanced Readers Copy for my voluntary review for Hidden Gems.. We have two people who get together under their own agenda, not willing to fall in love . But as time goes in, and Keira sees Rowanndifferently, he tries to win her heart and eventualky he does and they fall in love.. good love story.. You need to read. ( )
