OMG – this was such an intense book because of the drama, the heartache, the betrayal, the action, the truth and then the new love found. I loved every bit of it. This book is mainly about Leigh and Damien, but the other characters such as Jenny, her mother, Taylor, Bolt, Edgar and his new wife, who is also Leigh’s mother, and grandpa. Well the story starts off with Leigh’s mother getting ready for a date as she has this idea that she needs to date a wealthy man and hopes that her daughter falls in the same shoes so that she can stop working and going to schools (as if this is horrible behavior). Damien on the other hand is dealing with issues at work and Jenny who has just informed him that their father has removed her trust fund and she still has another year to graduate high school. Well during this time Damien is also dealing with his own grief that happened five years ago, which deals with his only love. The story gets very interesting when Damien and Leigh meet up – there is an instant connection, but one that they do not seem to understand. She goes along with it knowing that this may not end up in anything long term, but their is a draw to him that she cannot fight.
The story gets very intense when it is discovered that Leigh’s mother is married to Edgar and that Damien did not even though that his parents were divorced. There is some action as Damien is determined to protect the women he loves. I will not give up the whole story, but it is very good and it gets you hooked from the get go. Some of the older characters from the other books from Kelli come to play in this one which is good as they help discover a lot that was hidden, but could forgiveness be given after everything that is discovered.

While each of the Carson Cove Scandals books can be read as a standalone, I’m loving all the tie-ins within the stories that really makes me fall for all the characters. in Carson Cove. I honestly can’t decide which of the couples are my favorite, and I can’t wait to read about more characters, catch up with all the wonderful couples, and fall in love even more with Carson Cove.
Please note that I did receive an ARC of this book, and the opinions expressed in this review are my own.

Another incredible and intriguing story from Carson Cove that will put you on the edge of your seat. This is the kind book where you actually hate some of the characters. How Damien and his sister Jenny survived their abusive father and complacent mother is a mystery. Leigh’s selfish, greedy mother and absent father is just as bad. And, I think that is why Damien and Leigh are so great together. They connect and you can feel it.
I am really impressed how the story unfolds in a careful and precise way. I got so caught up in the drama and romance once I started the book, I had to keep going to the end and I loved the end!

This is the 3rd book in this set but it can be read as a stand alone. Leigh and Damien are really good characters they both have baggage they have to let go of. I recommend this story.

Leigh is secretly going to Carson cove university so her mom don’t know and working at Carson city inn till she gets a job at Pembroke hotel where she meets damien Sinn .This story has twist and turn that you will enjoy. Awesome story 10 stars
3 1/2 Stars
Damien went into his relationship with Leigh with tons of baggage. His yearning, remorse, and mourning for Caroline, his love who died tragically, set him back emotionally as well as physically. His nightmare of a father who was both emotionally and physically abusive as well as cruel and murderous defined his past and present problems.
Leigh’s history with her selfish, self satisfying mother wasn’t that much better. An odd twist of events with their parents tied Damien and Leigh closer after they had fallen for each other which was strange and disturbing.
Lots of intrigue and drama, but I felt oddly dissatisfied with Edgar and Leigh’s mother lack of retribution. Justice was served at the end, but I guess I’m a bit more bloodthirsty than this gentle author.
Well written with lots of drama to keep the interest high.
