Omg…the trilogy just keeps ramping up and keeping me on the edge. Love Scarlett and her savvy business sense and generous nature. Legend…he’s loyal, protective and selfless to a fault. Seriously the perfect man. I want these two together against everyone. Against all odds. I’m so addicted to this story with the twists, sass and steamy scenes. I just need some more. Yum!
Have you ever read a book where you get so excited that you want to shout it out from the rooftops?Well House Of Scarlett did just that!! Fantastic story that will have you cheering and anxiously turning the pages!! Right when you think everything is flowing, BAM things take a huge turn that leaves you stunned!! Epic on all levels!!
This book was FIRE. If you recall, at the end of The Fall of Legend, Gabriel wham, bam, thank you ma’am Scarlett and told her that he’s no good for her and can’t have her.
Which is obviously hurtful to Scarlett, but her tight knit group of friends (including her ex-stepsister Flynn) rally around her and do what best friends do: threaten Gabe Legend with bodily harm.
Eventually Gabriel comes to his senses, luckily, and he and Scarlett make it back together. The revengemonster inside of me originally wanted a little more groveling from Gabriel, but he truly was torturing himself so I couldn’t bring myself to want more of his pain.
Scarlett continued to be the strong Heroine I know her to be, as she continued to evolve and grow. She’s discovering which relationships matter and which don’t. And even though she’s strong and assertive, Gabriel can’t help but be the protective alpha male he is.
The spice heats up in this second installment, and emotions run deeper. More insight into both of their pasts is revealed as they get closer to each other both emotionally and physically.
And oh, that ending. I should have expected something like this from Meghan March – she is the queen of the cliffhanger ending.
House of Scarlett was a great continuation of the series. Strong, lovable characters with a story line full of suspense and intrigue.
This Book is AAaamazing! My favorite MM series to date! Let me point out that I HAVE LOVED THEM ALL! This book is it, this series, these characters #Flovedit! so Beyond Chemistry and Swoon worthy, One-click and enjoy the ride! You won’t be disappointed!!! All. The. Stars.
“You’ll always be what I want most. But I can’t have you.”
Y’all, the Queen of Cliffy’s is back. I tell you…. for some reason when I finished book 2, House of Scarlett, I thought it was the end of the books. Well I was effing wrong..lol
SOMEWHERE I missed the word “Trilogy” in the title. How did I miss this?? I have no freaking idea. lol I got to the end of this book and was like…wait…what the Hell…there are nooo more pages???? That kindle almost went flying across the room..haha
Butt ohhh it just makes this Trilogy more exciting to read. Plus I am loving Gabriel Legend and Scarlett sooo freaking much, truthfully I don’t want it to come to an end. Such a page turner, sooo much suspense and sooo much steam. I always say it, March brings the HEAT in her books for sure!!!
**House of Scarlett is the second book in the Legend Trilogy and should be read after The Fall of Legend.**
We begin book 2 in the Legends trilogy with a heartbreaking memory from Gabriel. My heart ached for the little boy he was, but we are then right back where we left off in book 1 and I wanted to smack him over the head! But as the story carried on, my heart started to once again melt for this man who has this driving need to protect all those he cares about. His past had negatively impacted his self-worth and he purposely hurt Scarlett for “her own good,” but with the help of Scarlett’s amazing circle of her step-sister and friends, his world is turned upside down and that protective instinct switched right on.
What I absolutely loved about this book was how Scarlett is shown how strong and capable she is but with Legend she realizes she doesn’t always have to be. His need to protect her and shield her touches something inside of her, something that has been missing in her life. The majority of this story is filled with how much Gabriel truly cares for Scarlett and how far he is willing to go to keep her happy and protected. There are a few decisions that Gabriel felt like he needed to make, so the anticipation of what will result will definitely be on my mind until the conclusion of this series.
We are once again left on a doozy of a cliffhanger, but having read all of this author’s duets and trilogies, I know for a fact that it will be all worth it!
The Fall of Legend introduced us Gabriel and Scarlett and their seemingly improbable romance. We saw him crush any chances of a future together by being a complete dumbass but luckily since this is a romance trilogy, we know that somehow, someway he’ll make up for his mistake. The House of Scarlett is where that happens; once he gets his head out of his ass, he realizes he has to try to win her back and when the opportunity presents itself, he does. Thankfully, Meghan March doesn’t make us wait too long for their reunion. Their romance is sweet and steamy and all the things you wanted it to be but of course, OF COURSE!, as the middle book in a trilogy, there are warning signs that things aren’t going to be easy before we get to their happily ever after. Between him holding out on some important information (GAHHHH, we all know some of his secrets and maneuverings are going to bite him in the ass!), and her awful father and scary internet troll(s), you can just feel the tension ramping up. So many things can still go wrong and I have a feeling book three of this trilogy is going to show us all of the ways those things can go wrong–especially if the ending of The House of Scarlett is any indication. Hold on to your seats, Gabriel and Scarlett, readers, because it looks like it’s going to be a wild ride ahead of us.
House of Scarlett will blow you away!!
Wow! Legend and Scarlett get even better and more HOT in this book. This was a page turner right from the start. What a sweet,sexy and wild ride this book is. We get to see more of what made Legend who he is and also a bit more of Scarlett’s back round. What is going to blow you away is the ending!! Holy moly…be prepared for an epic surprise. This book is top notch and unforgettable!!
WOW!!! This book if full of excitement and loyalty at its finest. Scarlett and Legend are off the chart combustible. Lana~White Hot Reads
The way Legend is so protective of Scarlett will melt your heart and make you swoon even harder for him. The way Scarlett accepts Bump is even more awesome. I can’t wait for the conclusion because the ending of this book will leave you saying WTF just happened.
I can’t…I don’t know what to say or where to begin…I thought I had prepared myself enough for the ride I was going to be taken on before starting House of Scarlett, but Meghan March threw me for a loop. Though I shouldn’t be too surprised as she is the queen of the plot twist.
There was all this emotion and tension at the end of the first book and then here, there was a sweet romance as Legend and Scarlett get to know one another. Reconnect. Though Gabriel still harbored a lot of guilt for the way he treated Scarlett, he vowed to make it up to her. To prove through his actions and words that he could be the man she deserved. I liked seeing the thoughtful, tender side of him on display. But make no mistake, he was still very protective.
Things were moving forward for them as a couple but the problems they faced didn’t go away. In fact, they became more pressing. Tough decisions and moves had to be made. A plan was in place. It was all on the up and up and then…BAM! The unexpected.
Hoooooooooly crap! I feel like I say that with every Meghan March book but with the way House of Scarlett ended I mean it more than ever! My heart was racing and breaking and I NEED the conclusion to this trilogy…stat!
This book!!! I’m still screaming about the cliffy at the end, but dang it’s worth it. I adore Scarlett and Legend. You really start to get the feel for all the characters in this book making you swoon harder and hate some more intensely! So ready for the final chapters of their story!
Home sweet home for Scarlett and Legend! 5 stars
Legend still thinks he’s not good enough for Scarlett, but he makes a different choice in this book which I loved (and won’t spoil). He made me love him and swoon in this book! He is an Alpha protector, but his past broke my heart. Scarlett evolved even more in this book; she gained more confidence and more of a backbone, and I delighted in that! Her friends and step-sister are divine! But what I loved most was that Scarlett and Legend spent time together, established their relationship, found a home in each other and fell in love. Now they can deal with the drama that comes at them from the outside, especially like that cliffhanger ending! Can’t wait for the 3rd and final book!
I received a copy of this ebook from the author for my honest review.
Book 2 is here! I fell in love with Legend and Scarlett, and I couldn’t wait to get my hands and eyes on this. I liked how in this book we were given a different look at who Legend is and what makes him tick. I love how he took care of Scarlett. It showed a vulnerability to Legend that I didn’t see initially. I also enjoyed how Scarlett began to let her guard down and started to find comfort and safety in Legend. I just love these two together! But as the story continues, the plot thickens. Not to mention THAT ENDING! Holy hell, I was not expecting that. I can’t wait to see where this storyline takes me and how it all comes together. Meghan March is such an amazing storyteller, and I have no doubt the conclusion is going to be mind blowing!
Review by Lys
In House of Scarlett, book two of The Fall of Legend trilogy you see more of the caring side of Gabriel Legend. And it’s so endearing that it makes your heart just burst with love for this amazing Hero! You also see the extraordinary strength of Scarlett’s friendship with her tribe! Book 1 was intriguing and so amazing but book 2 was so much more in depth you felt like you were actually a character in the story line yourself. You can’t help but immerse yourself into this book….it’s that riveting!!
Sweet Baby Jesus in a manger! Scarlett has to be the sweetest, most genuine, strongest heroine Meghan March has written yet! House of Scarlett showed Scarletts red hot sexiness, her strength and showed Legends ability to say the he!! with it all and show up for his girl. This book made me fall in love further with Legend and Scarlett and now I am so anxious for the last book in this trilogy!
5 Stars
House of Scarlett by Meghan March is the second book in the Legend Trilogy. It cannot be read as a stand-alone, so you’ll need to read the first book before starting this one.
Wowwww! Ms. March has surprised me once again with her writing. I swear, it keeps on getting better and better. Her characters are real, flawed, and truly unforgettable.These two though, Legend and Scarlett-they are shaping up to be two of my absolute favorites.
House of Scarlett picks up right where The Fall of Legend left off. While we get some answers,more questions pop up. We get to see Scarlett and Legend’s relationship deepen. There are so many twists and turns and it is such a thrilling ride! I am so excited to see where Ms. March takes this story next! Highly recommend reading this book!
Normally, the second part of a trilogy is my least favorite, but not so in this case! This was everything I wanted to see between Scarlett and Legend and more!
We learn so much more about Legend’s history and his drive to succeed makes that much more sense after learning his past. This is a man who takes his promises seriously and he is very near to feeling like he’s failed someone very important to him. His loyalty is one of the things I love most about him, that and his perseverance. He has some making up to do, but when he sets his mind to it he is sure to succeed.
The chemistry between these two is off the charts and impossible to ignore. But even though they click together, there is still a lot to sort before they can fight for their forever.
Scarlett’s squad is such a strong support for her. I love how these women have each other’s backs, supporting without question, and willing to go to all sorts of lengths to protect one of their own. The addition of her sister, Flynn, to the group only ramps up the skill set of the women who surround Scarlett (and I love her addition to the storyline in general — she’s a pretty BA little sister).
I can’t wait to see how things will wrap up for these two as they reach the final part of their story. The tension that has been building is coming to a head, and the threat that Gabriel has been hiding from is closer than ever before. I can’t wait to see why he has been on the run and how they can fix all the problems they are facing.
ARC received for review purposes
Oh my word….. WOW JUST WOW!!!! Holy smokes was this read full of moments that had my heart racing because of these two amazing characters, Legend and Scarlett! I loved the development of their relationship that was chalked full of explosive chemistry, steamy encounters and an undeniable bond. I tried to read this book as slowly as possible because I didn’t want it to end; however, once I started I was immersed in the story and unwilling to part with it. If you thought the cliffy in Fall of Legend had you tied up in knots, prepare to be left stunned, dazed and absolutely 100% speechless!

There are so many people in this story I want to get there own story !!
2020 is going to be wonderful for Meghan March !! I can’t wait !!
This story picks up right where book one stopped. This story brings you back into the rich and diverse world of Gabriel and Scarlett.
The feelings and chemistry between Gabriel and Scarlett continue to grow and become even hotter.
The danger, secrets, and intrigue continue to swirl around Gabriel and Scarlett.
Scarlett is becoming stronger, bolder and is coming to terms with relationships that are worth her time and those she needs to leave behind.
Gabriel is done fighting his feelings for Scarlett and I was cheering hard for that!
I am falling hard for Scarlett’s way of embracing everything that is Gabriel and his world and how Gabriel is becoming more of the true protector that Scarlett needs.
And finally, oh my me, Ms. March the ending of this story! Oh how to leave a reader! I absolutely love it and I absolutely hate it! So well done!
The final story in this trilogy cannot come soon enough.
