This book like the last gave me whiplash…. Just when you think you know what is happening… something totally unexpected happens and your back to wonder what is going on. I was left on an emotional cliffhanger where I was desperate to read book 3. Ethan and Mia are so strongly written that you feel you are watching them from the outside and hoping for their happily ever after. Don’t mind me as I hide in my bedroom and

This story has you on the edge of your seat most of the time. Mia and Ethan seem like the perfect couple but there are so many lies that I never saw coming and as soon as my nerves calm down I am going to get Concealed which is the next one!
Complicated is the 2nd in the trilogy following Mia and Ethan. The story gets deeper and more involved, with more twists and turns within the company Mia is working in, trying to find out links to the mob. Links to Mia’s parents, who Mia thought died in a car accident, are becoming apparent, with disturbing links to the mob as well. All this adds to the risks to Mia and attempts on her life as well as turbulence between Ethan and Mia. Again a compelling read.
stunning
This book series has it all!!! It has suspense, deep love, mafia, and FBI. Mia and Ethan have a story that is truly not one to be missed. This series will make you not want to put down the book u til the very end. Ethan and Mia meet under circumstances that has an instant connection and they fight it. Now you have to read to see if they get their happy ever after.
Not a dull moment in this book! So many twists and turns and ups and downs that I just didn’t want to Stop! Ethan’s love and adoration for Mia is obvious, but all the lies are destroying them! Meeting all of Ethan’s friends was fun. So many personalities and hotness! Need to start book 3 stat
The second book in the Secrets and Lies trilogy, is everything I look for in a book. The way Ms. Koeing drew this reader in. As the plot thickens things begin happening in Mia and Ethan’s lives that drew their puzzle together and yet there were more pieces to the puzzles that needed solving. As one thing leads to another, so do lies and secrets and twists that are unimaginable. And after reading book two, I’m not sure Ethan and Mia will come out okay.
To be honest I didn’t really want to finish the book but after a few more chapters, I found myself reading late into the night as their terrifying events unfolded for them and their friends.
I know the conclusion will be spectacular.
Conflicted was a great book but Complicated was even better and harder time putting it down. Mia is in love with Ethan but in the same time she still has a very hard time trusting him, Mia is so worried about doing the wrong thing, if she does it could hurt her or the ones she loves. This book lets us know a lot more about Ethan and how he is really a great guy. Another great book, not sure how the author keeps doing it.
Beautifully written story with great characters. This book is part of a series by a wonderful author.
Book two in the series has it all!! Drama, suspense, romance, the mafia, twists and turns. There are so many secrets to be revealed in this book and you won’t want to put it down to see if you get your questions answered. I definitely had a book hangover at the end of this one! (Only in a good way!!) Bring on book three!!
