What a great duet Kelly Elliott and Kristin Mayer make! This book has everything you want! Steamy, funny, and oh! What a page turner.
I enjoyed this book. I really liked the mystery involved in the story!! It was fun to go along on the scavenger hunt!
Mike oh Mike! I loved him. He is a great character. He will protect anyone he loves!! I loved his parents. I loved how they rattled him!
Sydney is a great female character. She is strong, determined and loves a great adventure!! She’s had so much loss in her young life she deserves a happily ever after! I love her interactions with Mike and his family!
This was a great book and I’m hoping we can get a book on Wesley!
ABSOLUTELY LOVED DANGEROUS TEMPTATIONS!!!!! The twist and turns in the book had me thinking one thing and it be another. I love how Kelly and Kristin’s writing comes together. Sydney and Mike are perfect for each other. I wasn’t too sure about the history aspect of this book because I don’t usually like those kinds of books but this was great. I liked that there was a twist on historical facts also. 5 STARS from me!
I went into this blind, for real, I had no idea what it was supposed to be about. Boy oh boy was I in for a treat! Hilarious, steamy, serious, deadly secrets! All the things! Mike’s parents, oh my goodness! I about died. Read this, you will not be disappointed.
I love every book that these two write separate, but together? They are magical. This was such a fun, mysterious read. I was on the edge of my seat. Loved Sydney and Mike, and Paula was hilarious. Such an excellent book. I can’t wait to see what’s next from this dynamic duo
I really liked this book. It was fun, sexy and well written. I could not put down and I loved the characters and great chemistry.
If you’re looking for something new and refreshing in the contemporary romance department, dangerous temptations is the book for you. A swoon-worthy romance with a touch of mystery and and a whole lot of fun made this story absolutely phenomenal.
Let me start by saying Kelly and Kristin work extremely well with each other. Their writing is seamless and you can’t tell who wrote what. The characters are well developed and it is evident they did their fair share of research before writing this book.
I truly fell in love with these characters, their family, and their story. Officer Mike Murphy was perfect. He’s sweet and caring, smart, romantic, protective, and one hell of a cop. Sydney is as quirky as she is intelligent. She has suffered her fair share of tragedy, yet still has a positive outlook on life and lives by the motto live each day like it’s your last.
Dangerous Temptations is another fabulous collaboration from these two that took me on a great adventure that kept the pages turning. I highly recommend it.
I absolutely loved Dangerous Temptations by Kelly Elliott and Kristin Mayer. This book is a sweet sexy romance with a little bit of suspense and a twist of history.
Sydney has just moved back to town to run the vet clinic left to her by her grandpa. She runs into the hot cop in town and is immediately attracted to him. She isn’t really interested in a relationship but there is something about him that she really loves.
Mike is a transplant from Chicago and loves being a cop. He is immediately attracted to Sydney the first time he sees her and makes all kinds of excuses to keep running into her. Will the little piece of history left to Sydney by her grandpa bring them closer together as they search for answers or tear them apart because of Mike’s job?
I loved the connection between Mike and Sydney. The secondary characters added lots of depth to the storyline. I hope these two write more amazing stories for us in the future!
This book has it all, it’s funny, sweet, loving and Mysterious. When Sydney and Mike meet it’s like a instant spark . Sydney mind is off kilter because she can’t make a complete sentence. Mike is smitten by Sydney, she isn’t like no other he has ever met and he can’t get enough of her. ADD in a Scavenger Hunt and their story keeps you on your toes. I love the way these two authors come together with their style of writing and you have a winning story.
Heated romantic suspense set in Salem, Massachusetts
While I have read Kelly Elliott’s books before, and it was based on her previous books that I read this one, Kristen Mayer is a new to me author. Wow, just wow, there was so much more to the story than the blurb let on, and I absolutely loved it. This is more of a romantic suspense than was first hinted at.
Sydney Burch is locally born and left to pursue her Veterinarian qualifications, wanting to succeed on her own first before coming home to go in partnership with her Grandfather’s clinic. Unfortunately he passed away too early, leaving her everything he owned for her to carry on without him, along with a strange package to interpret.
Officer Mike Murphy is new to town and is instantly attracted to Sydney. The effect they have on each other is just insanely high in chemistry, and in truth, Sydney turns into the biggest ever klutz, while he comes across as all gorgeous and hot kind of man. His parents deserve a special mention because they are as hilarious as all hell, and bring such an delightful cheery thread to the book.
All up, Dangerous Temptations is a well rounded read containing everything from heavy chemistry between Mike and Sydney, through a suspenseful subject, and into the crazy hilarious zone with Mike’s parents. I highly recommend this book, and I can’t wait to read more from them, hopefully about Wesley. 4.5 Stars.
What a different yet highly enjoyable read! Going into this storyline with no expectations other than loving both authors, I came out so obsessed with this book! After losing the final member of her family, Sydney returns to her grandfather’s town to fulfill the plan they both originally intended before his passing. Meeting Mike, the new cop in town, Sydney is immediately attracted (as is Mike), and it’s so comical how they continue to run into each other in the funniest situations and say the funniest things. Reading her grandfather’s will, Sydney is introduced to a local mystery and starts the scavenger hunt of her life. With the help of Mike, as they continue to get to know each other they also work together to figure out the mystery of the coin and her house. Along the way, there are some surprises and some additionally funny moments. But the best aspect of this storyline is the budding romance between Mike and Sydney. Something I love about both of these authors is the way they are able to write a captivating, heartfelt story that readers cannot get enough of. I’m hoping they continue with at least one of the characters we meet in this book, but overall I loved it and can’t wait for the next collaboration from these authors!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Kelly Elliott and Kristin Mayer have written romance gold yet again with Dangerous Temptations. The story has everything from humor to suspense with passion and romance to round out this exciting new story from the authors who last wrote the best selling “Play Me”.
Sydney returns home to Salem, Massachusetts to run the veterinarian clinic which was left to her after her grandfather passed away suddenly. It’s upon first arriving back in town that she meets the hero of this read- Mike. He is the new smexy officer in town and their first meeting was funny and yet sent pulses racing. Then things in their town start to take a strange turn and that’s when Sydney and Mike are right there going thru the strange things together. There are tons of twists and turns, ups and downs, rollercoaster moments, some great big laughs and tons of feels. Loved the mystery aspect and the ending has me clamoring for more!!!
My Rating: 4.5 stars *******
5 LOVING MYSTERY STARS!! OMG….I was on the edge of my seat with this phenomenal story. These authors had me playing the guessing game and saying oh my goodness moments. Mike is a hot cop and Sydney is a beautiful vet that will blow your kindles up with sexiness and you will be laughing at their banter. These two authors write so well together, they definitely compliment each other’s style. Looking for a fabulous mystery with lots of hotness….this should be your pick.
When these two authors write together, you get one hell of a story. One that is addictive, one that is humorous and one that will stay with you long after the last one. Both authors have brought their A-game with this story.
Sydney is back after her grandfather has passed away. Taking over his vet business, Sydney is getting her bearings. But all that is thrown off when she meets the sexy cop Mike.
These two end up on an adventure because of her Grandpa. And what an adventure they take.
You get everything you love in a romance. Five Fantastic Stars!!
Highly recommended.
*I was given a free advanced copy of this book by the author in exchange for my honest and voluntary review. All thoughts and opinions are those of my own.*
The dynamic writing duo of Kelly Elliott and Kristin Mayer does it once again! I am a long time fan of Kelly Elliott and was introduced to Author Kristin Mayer and her amazing books after their first writing collaboration. Oh My Word……when I read they were releasing another, I was beyond ready to get my hands on it! As always, they made this book fan very happy! Dangerous Temptations is a standalone and is told in dual POV. The flow of their collaborative writing was spot on!
We meet Sydney Burch, a young Veterinarian who has returned home having just experienced a loss that has just shook her to the core. Enter the knight in shining armor, the oh so hot and helpful Officer Mike Murphy. At first glance, Sydney loses the ability to form a complete sentence (with that one meeting, I was hooked) At second glance, she loses the ability to stay upright!Sydney and Mike find themselves thrust into an unsolved mystery but also a growing desire and intensity that neither can deny. The journey to the clues Sydney was given and those they discover along the way, takes them down a path they neither one could have fathomed.
While the mysterious aspect in this book is perfect so is the love story. We have two people, a whole lot of chemistry, both single…small town. Seriously, everyone knows everybody’s business (some of the characters reminded me of the nosey neighbor Gladys Kravitz from Bewitched). Along that path….. comes a sweet but oh so intrusive mother, a father who is technologically illiterate, one sweet puppy, a whole lot of laughs, tears, an OMG moment and a whole lot of va va voom!
My book friends, Dangerous Temptations has it all. The humor, danger, suspense and oh yes…the romance. I was enraptured by Sydney and Mike from chapter one. I raise my hand and gladly say, I LOVE a great romance. Add the suspense along with the beautiful love story, you have absolute perfection!
Dangerous Temptations is a MUST READ!!! The writing styles of these authors and their work on this collaboration is just amazing. Kudos Author Kelly Elliott and Kristin Mayer on giving fans another amazing book.
Interesting concept with just the right dose of steam!
So this story is fairly unique. It covers some Salem history which is bound to make it interesting and has some twists and turns that you can come to expect with a Kristin Mayer book. This duo w/ Kelly Elliott is a fun, freaky ride.
Mike and Sydney are such a cute couple. Although their connection seems a little fast – watching Sydney’s quirky, awkward reaction to all things Officer McHotty is comically sweet. Tired thoughts…sluggish feet…tired arms…it was hilarious!!
So this story definitely takes some twists and turns and will keep you guessing as Syd and Mike try to figure out the mystery.
Drama..intrigue…romance…awkward love make for a unique and enjoyable story.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advance reader copy.
WOW! What an amazing adventure this one was. Kelly and Kristen took me for a ride I won’t soon forget, and I am still feeling the effects.
Sydney and Mike are HOT HOT HOT and I couldn’t get enough of them. Their romance is definitely one you don’t want to miss out on. But for me, the mystery that was woven through the entire story is what kept me turning the pages and unable to put the book down.
This one if full of characters that you will not be able to stop yourself from loving. Mike’s parents are an absolute hoot and I so need more of them.
I am afraid to goo into any details of the story, as giving anything away would be a shame. You really have to experience this one for yourself. And I highly recommend that you do!
Dangerous Temptations was my first time reading a book by these authors, but believe me, it will not be my last! This book has everything! Amazing characters, a mysterious story line and some hot off the charts chemistry!
I loved these characters and was hooked from the moment I started reading. My heart broke for Sydney with everything she was going through. After losing her Grandfather unexpectedly and having no other family left she was still such a strong character who tried to move forward with her life and look at the positive side of things. The first meetings between Sydney and Officer Mike had me laughing out loud at the thoughts going through Sydney’s head. She was so clumsy and saying the craziest things that I couldn’t help but love the 2 of them together instantly.
Of course, no story is complete without some drama and suspense and boy did this deliver. Faced with a mystery to solve, Mike helps Sydney on the scavenger hunt her Grandfather started her on and the two begin to fall for each other along the way. Every time I thought I had things figured out I was thrown for a loop and kept on my toes trying to guess what was going to happen next.
This is a must read book for sure! By Alisa
Love me a Romantic Mystery
These two authors together are great!!! I really enjoyed the premise of this story, I loved how the authors combined the past and the present, the overall history of it all was super interesting and really had me guessing.
Throwing Mike and Sydney into this mysterious story was just an added bonus. These two were stinking adorable together. I loved how they were so into the scavenger hunt but still found time for each other and fell in love. They totally came into their own as a couple and I loved how the town folk played into it.
The ending leads me to believe we don’t have all the answers and that maybe, just maybe we might be getting more about this cast of characters and I really hope we do!!!!
I was excited to get my hands on Dangerous Temptations.
This book kept me on the edge of my seat and kept the pages turning! Kelly and Kristin did a fabulous job with the characters and storyline. The chemistry between Mike and Sydney was amazing. It is full of twists and turns and I loved every word. This is a must read!
