I’m in love with two men. I’m torn and need to choose which man from my past I want as a permanent part of my future. My heart leads me one way as my brain pushes me toward the other. I want them both, but each of them holds a secret that will change everything. Can I overcome the betrayal with a simple intermission, or am I better off alone?
Intermission (Love Triangle Duet Book 2)
By lisasuzanne
Lisa Suzanne, you certainly did not disappoint! Book two of the duet continues on Delaney’s roller coaster ride to make her choice between a pro football star and a rock star. I could not put this book down either and loved the ending. I recommend book number two and make sure you read book one first.
Drama is the first word that comes to mind, if it could go wrong I think it did in this book. But I’m not going to spill the beans about this one, but you won’t be disappointed in this series.
Gavin and Chase are great guys and I enjoyed both men for Delaney but the best one won at the end. The other characters in the duet are so good that I would love to see them get a book of their own.
Lisa knows what her fans love and raise the bar every time. I love that she adds a surprise guest from past books.
This is the second book in the Love Triangle Duet and if you haven’t read the first book – I highly recommend you read it before starting this book. It starts immediately where Interception (Book #1) ends and finds Delaney still working through her feelings for both Gavin and Chase and what her future could hold if she chooses to have a relationship with either of them. With the bombshell that is dropped at the end of book #1 (no spoilers!) – I feel it turns the reader to definitely root for one of the men over the other. This books brings this love triangle to a wonderful conclusion, that I believe, most people will be happy with. There are bumps along the way – as Delaney learns, and comes to grips with secrets that both men kept from her as well as overcoming that information and seeing beyond it to fight for the relationship with the man she has truly fallen in love with and wants a future with. I loved this book and you will too!!
OMG I couldn’t put the book down. The triangle between Delaney, Gavin and Chase is wonderful.
The way Delaney figures out who she wants is exciting. The betrayal she feels from both after her decision makes you wander if she will choose either one. The way she finds the betrayal of her parents to put things in perspective for her.
Can she forgive Gavin? Does she still love Chase? You will have to read to find out who she finally chooses.
This is a wonderful series of 2 books. Can’t wait to read what comes next.
A much anticipated book to find who she picked!
This book was an anticipated read as I wanted to find out who Delaney would finally pick. First she wants Gavin he4bold boyfriend the NFL player or Chase the boy next door Rock Star. She goes back and forth trying to pick who she wants to spend her life with. Finally she goes with her heart and the one she finally admits she loves! I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
Oh yes!! Everything I wanted and more! The outcome I was hoping for, and the writing is so good! 5 steamy stars!
I loved the buildup, and the feelings between the characters is intense. The way Laney struggled with her feelings, and who she wanted to be with was very well written. It sometimes made me angry that she couldn’t decide, but that’s just because I already had my heart set on a certain character. 😉
Gavin is the guy you root for and fall in love with, and I need a Gavin in my life! The chemistry between him and Laney is off the charts! Gavin is the good guy with so much heart, but in the end does he get the girl? Chase has his own mistakes to deal with, and I love what his actions added to the story. In the end his feelings are genuine, but is it too late? Laney’s interactions and feelings for both men are so different, and the writing portrays that very well.
A superb love triangle, with a bit of angst and drama that had me captivated from page one! In the end I wanted so much more of these characters! This is one sexy read, that took my emotions for one hell of a ride!
A 3/5 star read for me for a few reasons. Honestly this duet could have been a single book. Book 2 felt really short and not much happened story wise. There were ups and downs and a whole lot of drama which felt unnecessary at times. I was happy with how the book ultimately ended but it just didn’t wow me.
I’m glad Delaney chose who she did and that they found a way to make it work. The ending was fun and wrapped up the duet nicely.
A MUST read! I could not wait for the second part of this duet to drop! You will not be disappointed!!
Huh, what can I say about this book?!? I loved this book so much.
Delaney is figuring out throughout the book which man she wants to be with. Is she the same person as she was 10 years ago is her high school sweetheart the one she wants or does she want the rockstar?!?
She has a HEA with the right man for her. She digs deep within herself to figure out who she is and what she wants. She doesn’t just jump in.
Lisa Suzanne deserves more than 5 stars for this duet.
Delaney is still torn as to who to choose. Her ex Chase has always been, in her mind, the one she is meant to be with. But with her old childhood friend Gavin back in her life, suddenly her decision isn’t so clear anymore. As she continues to spend time with each of them, she finally realizes deep down who her heart truly belongs to. But when she finally hears the truth about the secrets both guys have been hiding, will her decision remain the same? Or will she choose to let both go? Another amazing read from this author. Looking forward to reading the next book!
Wow, I can’t say enough great things about this book. Interception, the first book of this duet left you wondering about Delaney’s choice, Chase or Gavin. She had not seen either of them in 10 years and encounters them both at her high school reunion. Chase had been her boyfriend and Gavin had been her best friend, but now she had to decide who she wanted to be with in the future. She had a hard time letting go of events from the past and agonized over her decision. I loved that she took her time and both men were very patient while waiting. I was glad she didn’t rush her choice and was glad that she got her HEA.
I can’t wait to read another of Lisa Suzanne’s books, the stories are well written and steamy. I’m not usually a fan of serial stories but this book has made me rethink my intentions because it was so enjoyable.
I received an ARC of this book and voluntarily leave this excellent review
Oh my word!!!!! I KNEW I picked the perfect one!!! Delaney should never have taken so long to decide, it was staring her in the face and she couldn’t even see it. I love football and rock stars but this one was a complete no brained for me. So many moments of pulling my hair out and just waiting and turning the pages breathlessly to see which one she chose. Loved this book!!!!!!!! Exceptional writing!!!!
This love triangle!!!
Delaney has some really big decisions to make and she’s the worst at it. She’s a very indecisive person and has to weigh all the odds before she’s 100% sure.
She’s in love with 2 men. 2 men who once were extremely important in her life until 10yrs of separation and they have grown into different adults.
Chase is trying to win Delaney back and he’s pulling all the cards thinking he knows exactly what Delaney needs and wants.. but is Delaney really the same high school girl he once was in love with and are Chase’s Intentions all sincere and honest?
Gavin knows what he wants with Delaney and will give her the space she needs but he will not give up because he knows she’s the one and he is the one for her.
So many twist and turns and suspenseful moments.
One thing! You must be patient with Delaney because their will be times you want to shake her .

WHAT HAS REALLY WORKED FOR ME
Addictiveness: 5/5 Highest level of addictiveness!!! From the first book, I couldn’t take this story out of my head. It was easy to read in one sitting this journey of old and new love.
Character: hero 5/5, heroine 4/5, secondary characters 5/5, growth 5/5, real 5/5 Ms. Suzanne’s characters were multidimensional with several layers to them.
I will start with Delaney because on the first book I had a little bit of trouble connecting with her. She still isn’t my favorite character of the book, but she did grow a lot in this book. I still think that she loved to created more drama than was needed, but I guess that is my personal opinion.
There are 2 men in this triangle. I won’t give them names, but definitely one is what book boyfriends are made of. The other, I didn’t like him at all on the first book, but in this book he grew on me. I can totally see him having his own love journey in a future book from Ms. Suzanne.
A few interesting secondary characters, I believe the antihero deserves his own book. I also would love to read the boys of the band and Rose having their love story told.
There were some characters easy to love, some easy to connect and all of them easy to understand!
Cover: art 5/5, title 5/5, color-font 5/5, buy 5/5 I’m obsessed with book covers. I love to find snippets of the stories within the art. This art definitely fits this story. I can see Gavin with Delaney, with the concert stadium as a background, the little guitar with the name of the series and the perfect, catchy title. I even like the love triangle sort of subtitle on the top, because is another snippet of information about the story. Different than for the first book, Delaney’s clothes is perfect for the event and mood of the cover. I would easily buy this book by its cover without reading the blurb!
Freshness: 5/5 It feels new, original, with fresh ideas. I love it!!! I like how the author has created the love triangle. I love all the feelings it evokes. I’m crazy about how they all have a past in common. Fresher than listerine!!!
Plot: believable 4/5, conflict 4/5, dialogue 5/5, ending 5/5, enjoyment 5/5, opening 5/5, pace 3.5/5, setting 5/5, subplots 4/5, twists 4/5 Good opening and perfect ending. It shouldn’t be a believable concept, but the author really makes it work. Dialogues written by a pro. The pace in this book was a bit slower than the first and I think the major conflict was solved pretty early. But this story still hooked the reader from the beginning, making it impossible to stop reading it. Love the setting and a few new unexpected twists!
Romance: believable 5/5, chemistry 5/5, description 5/5, development 5/5, steam 5/5 O.M.G! This is a LOVE STORY! Really, this is the perfect romance. It has a swoon-worthy hero, with a cute heroine, a great antihero and a few good twists. They are hot for each other, but even during their steamer moments we can feel their love. Some great smut descriptions.
Writing Style: 5/5 I’ve definitely became a fan. Her characters are complex, her plot simple at the same time convoluted, her love story is hot and emotional. Can’t wait to read more from the author! Perfect writing!!!
WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER
I know, I always have to find something to complain, even with a series as perfect as this.
Plot: I have to say, the pace of this book wasn’t as good as the first. I guess because the main conflict was solved early and everything else felt a bit like small little problems, not really a major crisis.
MY THOUGHTS
Can I just say the hero is dreamy, hot, perfect! Everything!!!
Other thing I must say: the author is crazy good, crafty and a wordsmith. She not only wrote an amazing plot, but she wrote several songs that were complementing the plot. WOW
This is a MUST READ for everyone!!!
34/35 STARS – 5 STARS (between 33.5 stars and 35 stars)
Addictiveness: 5 Character: 4.5 Cover: 5 Freshness: 5 Plot: 4.5 Romance: 5 Writing Style: 5
Action 1/5
Angst 4/5
Darkness 0/5
Humor 0/5
Romance 5/5

Would I recommend? YES YES YES
Would I re-read this book/series? I’m certain I will.
Would I read more from the author? Can’t wait!
You may read this because you read the first book; you SHOULD read this because you enjoy love stories; you MUST read this because the writing is superb!!!
“Yet here we are, on the top of the Eiffel Tower alone, on an intermission from the rest of the world as we privately celebrate our love and our future, as we luxuriate in each other’s kiss… just as we’ll do for the rest of our lives.”

ARC Copy of Intermission (Love Triangle Duet #2)
Well, I devoured this sequel/conclusion in one night but waited to write my review to let it settle in my bones. It will be hard to keep this review spoiler free because now I know what happens, but I promise to proofread so as to not ruin it for anyone ready to see the conclusion to this love triangle.
First, the book is EXCELLENT! I was feeling stressed out, happy, confused, sad, annoyed, turned on, and eventually overjoyed with the outcome!
Lisa’s writing is impeccable and keeps you guessing while also creating a beautiful love story between Delaney and her chosen beau. I also like how Chase becomes so much more likable and I can finally see what Delaney saw in him all those years ago to make her give him another chance 10 years later.
I can’t write too much because I feel like I will give too much away, but if you enjoyed “Interception” then this is just the “Intermission” you’ll want and need!
Happy reading!
AND we have the conclusion to Interception !!! Due to my Emotional state at the end of book 1, i couldn’t wait to dive into the second part of Delaney’s highly charged and emotional journey to true Love, and author Lisa Suzanne once again pulls all the punches together to keep me in a hot mess and my heart on the ledge!!! I’m already chanting Gavin, Gavin !! Seriously the hot sexy rockstar who haven’t wavered in this love for this woman in over 14 years !!! Be still my heart, i’m a swooning puddle!! Chase is still on the scene, he’s still arrogant enough to believe that even now he’s the man she will choose!! I loved Delaney even more in this book, she’s grown!! You know when you look to your past, and your first loves, how tinted those rose coloured glasses were and how deeply you felt? Yeah we all remember, but 10 years makes a huge difference to the people we were then, and Delaney’s life has had more struggles than just the love dept. I adored how this author has written this book, i was so involved my heart broke for Delaney, coming to terms with family betrayals, finally seeing life without the rose tint, and finally, seeing and feeling what REAL love is like and which man was the one that would fulfill her everydream right along side her!! GAHHHHHH BRAVO, i went from not being sure about a triangle, to loving every emotional filled moment of it, from disliking a man to him almost being redeemed, from a man that truly loves that i only fell all the more in love with and a heroine that at first i wanted to shake to a heroine i wanted for my best friend !! This author leaves no part of you untouched by her characters, and every part of you touched by their love !!
Delaney is in a difficult situation. Should she go for the love from her past with Chase or take a risk on her new found love with Gavin? She goes back and forth and has a difficult time coming to a decision. At times, she wonders if she would be better off not picking either of them and just going on with her life. She discovers some truths about Chase, but after she’s already made her decision. Who does she pick? You’ll have to grab this wonderful book to find out! I received an advanced readers copy of this book and highly recommend it. 5+ stars!
Soooooooo not disappointed with the conclusion!
Delaney must make a decision. Will she return to the teen love who broke her heart? Chase wants her back, but is it real or a stunt? OR, will she take a chance on the best friend that she cut out of her life, despite his efforts to stand by and support her? Gavin has loved her for half his life and pours his feelings into his songs. Delaney must choose, but can she make a choice for her future, not her past?
I voluntarily reviewed this advanced reader copy and I have not been compensated in any way.
Delaney is still wavering in which guy she wants to be with in her life. Gavin, her old friend turned into something more or Chase, the old boyfriend who broke her heart in the past. The patience of a saint is needed to deal with Delaney! She finally chooses the right man for her and it wasn’t disappointing. This was a good story with a great ending.
OMG! I love this Duet! Intermission is the second book in the Love Triangle Duet. It was fantastic! It was filled with so many twists and turns that you don’t want to put it down! You’ll hope that Delaney will make the right choice between Chase the football player and Gavin the rockstar. I know which one I hope she picks! It is an emotional story with a wonderful storyline and fantastic characters! This is one series that I will read again! Thank you Lisa for writing such an amazing duet!
