I think this is my favorite of the series so far. I love how strong and resourceful Haley is.
Such a well written story that shows when you find the one you don’t let anything get in the way.
Some things are worth fighting for!
An amazing story of revenge and how love changes the perspective. Chase and Haley are just incredibly hot together. Once started it was very hard to put down
Plans for revenge doesn’t turn out the way Chase Hargrove expects it to especially when his heart is affected by Haley Shaw a employee of Black Crescent. Chase wants to become CEO of Black Crescent to get this revenge but things go the way he wants and things heat up between him and Haley. Hidden Ambition is book #4 of the Dynasties: Seven Sins Book Series and Jules Bennett weaves a great book, I encourage you to read this book to find out the whole story why Chase wants revenge and if there is a HEA.
Hidden Ambition is book 4 in the Dynasties: Seven Sins series. Julies’ book focuses on Haley and Chase. Though this is part of a series, most books can be read as standalones.
Revenge is the running theme of the series and Chase is no different. He is a sneak but has a good reason behind his deceit. He needs to find redemption for what his family has been through and taking over the company that he holds responsible is step one.
Haley refuses to let just anyone become CEO of Loyal Black Crescent, the company she has everything invested in. She knows Chase is up to something but will she be able to find out what that is?
The author steps in with her part of the series with ease, as usual. Jules has been a one click for me for many years now. Her latest release is no exception. 4 ½ star for Hidden Ambition which I voluntarily read and reviewed without expectation for review. All opinions expressed are my own.
Hidden Ambition is the fourth in the series but can read as a stand alone. This a story of love overcoming revenge and realizing your true worth. Haley Shaw grew up in a family that never saw her true worth so she put herself through school and now is the personal assistant to the CEO of Black Crescent. Her boss is retiring and she is being wooed with flowers and candy from all the potential candidates except one, Chase is wooing her with fancy lunches, movie premieres and a bouquet of highlighters. What starts as a fling develops into real feelings and both must determine if the secrets they are carrying are worth destroying the relationship that is growing. This is wonderfully written story that will entertain and delight until the very last past page.
I received an advanced reader copy from the publisher but all thoughts and feelings are my own.
I have to say , I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Chase & Haley have obvious chemistry that can’t be denied . Chase is on a mission to gain control of the CEO position of the company that destroyed his family years ago & Haley is suspicious of his motives early on! These two are sure to keep the reader entertained while they find their HEA NATURALLY along with a deep rooted sense of family values . Comfortable & respectable working relationships are clearly defined making this a great modern day enjoyable romantic read ! I was happy to read & review this in exchange for my honest opinions!
This book was excellent. I loved every word.
Entertaining read! The story line has secrets, revenge, strength and determination. The characters have uniques connections and interactions as well as strong, sexual attraction. Really enjoyed this book, highly recommend it.
I voluntarily read and reviewed this book; all opinions expressed are my own.
Haley and Chase are such a freaking awesome couple. Both strong, determined, passionate about their goals/jobs. I love how he gave her a different type of flower bouquet to get her attention. I love how sexy this book was. I loved the growth of the characters and the storyline. I love that Chase went to Josh with the information he found. It made me love Chase more than I already did. I love the cover too.
This was a great story. Really liked the relationship with Haley and Josh and how he really did value her opinion regarding the hiring situation. I was not sure what was going to happen with Chase and Haley especially when we kept finding out more information about why he truly wanted the position and Haley doing her best to protect herself and the company as well. I liked that they were so similar in their backgrounds and they seemed to get along great together, but they were both hiding secrets from each other which was not going to be a good thing going forward. I did appreciate Chase’s dad telling him to move on and let things go, I think that was such a perfect thing that he definitely needed to hear. I also loved how he showed up with the bouquet of highlighters, that was so great. I am glad it all worked out in the end, but I am definitely intrigued by one the candidates interviewing and am interested in seeing where his story goes.
Revenge has never tasted so sweet! With book four in the Dynasties: Seven Sins series Jules Bennett grabs the reigns and takes her reader on an emotional journey of healing and happily ever afters. The story line was fast paced and the characters stole my heart quickly. I loved their story!
Chase Hargrove is loyal to a fault. He has waited years to get to just the right point in life to get the justice his family deserves for the wrongs they suffered amidst the Black Crescent fallout all those years ago. He just never expected to fall for the one person that he can use the most to get insider info!
Haley Shaw is self-assured and accomplished. She’s the person behind the scenes that has helped make Black Crescent what it is today, so having to search for a new CEO to work beside going forward is bittersweet. She knows there’s something behind Chase’s insistence on getting the job … she’s just not sure what the whole story is!
I highly recommend this book and the entire series to anyone who enjoys a love connection made when it’s least expected that packs a powerful punch of power, revenge and desire.
He wants this job to get revenge for his father. The only problem is, he meets her, Haley, he get distracted by her and his plans are exposed.
I enjoyed this story a lot. Loved that Haley was a strong character.
Awesome story.
Loved it!
Between Chase’s wanting revenge and Haley wanting to protect her company, it was explosive.
I loved the chemistry between Chase and Haley.
Hidden Ambition is a sext workplace revenge romance. It was a quick, easy and enjoyable read. I really liked it.
Hidden Ambition is the fourth book in Harlequin Desire’s Dynasties: Seven Sin written by Jules Bennett. A revenge plot is the story behind Chase Hargrove desire to become CEO of Black Crescent Investment firm. What he doesn’t see in the cards is Haley Shaw.
I fell in love with this book from the start. Both Haley and Chase have a secret that they keep from one another. When Haley divulges hers, will Chase walk away? Will he continue onward with his desire to bring down the company that ruined his childhood? And when Chase’s mother questions his plans and future, will he listen to her?
Hidden Ambition was a fantastic read that I read in one sitting. It was fun watching both Chase and Haley dance around their secrets. I haven’t read any books in the series yet this is definitely a standalone. I received an advance copy which I chose to read and review. This is my honest opinion.
