If there was a book that deserved more than five stars this would be it. The second book in the Magnolia Duet is an explosive roller coaster ride that you will not want to get off of. It is not a standalone and you have to read book one. Magnolia is a woman who has not had an easy life and it seems as if things are getting worse. Luckily, she has Moses by her side to help her navigate the muddy waters. Moses is a ride or die for Magnolia as she is it for him and they have spent too many years apart. Yet Magnolia does not believe that she is worthy of Moses’s love because of her past. Things heighten when an assassin is after Magnolia and enlists Mount’s help in catching him. Like the best laid plans, not everything can be accounted for and it leaves them all in a vicarious position. What will Magnolia do to deal with the threat? How will Moses and Mount handle everything involved? This is one powerfully written storyline filled with drama, suspense, and twists and turns and readers will not be able to help falling into the swirling melee. I highly recommend this series and you should one click it asap! You will not be able to put it down. I volunteered to read a copy of this book.
Magnolia isn’t thrilled, to put it mildly, when Madam Temptress begins, and Moses is on set to bear her wrath. Will he have a reasonable explanation for the revelation that Mount dropped? For his sake, he better…
But this honestly will not be the worst or last obstacle this second chance couple will have. There’s someone out there coming for Magnolia, and she’ll need to call on all the savvy, all the fierce street smarts she’s gained over the years, and her people (Moses, Mount, and co.) if she, if they, are going to make it through the storm sweeping through Louisiana with her in its sights.
“Magnolia Marie Maison can have my fucking soul too.”
Damn! I love Madam Temptress!!! Why? Well lots of reasons, but the main one is Magnolia. She’s a fierce warrior who loves with intensity, will all her heart. And Moses is the lucky man who gets that love. Thank God he FINALLY came back for her because she, of all the people, deserved love and happiness. I love that Meghan gave her her second chance with the only man to ever have her heart. Their story is signature Meghan – sexy and intense, suspenseful and intriguing, and features her best heroine yet in Magnolia, and a hero in Moses who is Magnolia’s equal in every way.
The amazing conclusion to the Magnolia duet!!! Heart-stopping, gripping and the perfect ending to a fantastic series. LOVED it. Might be my favourite Meghan series yet. Again, if you’re into audio, make it happen.
“Another man, another liar. Why am I even surprised?”
Betrayal. Fear. Penance. Secrets. Passion. Mystery. Loyalty. Target. Loss. Horror. Beginnings…just a few ways Meghan March will be having Magnolia make you feel. This book gets deep into your bones and makes you FEEL everything that Magnolia is experiencing…the good, the bad, the ugly.
“I should’ve told you everything sooner, but I was too caught up in making you mine first.”
This book is a masterpiece. You knew Magnolia was special, but this highlights her fierceness and also shows her insecurities (much to her dislike). One minute she is ruling her world and the next she is internally falling apart.
“You get one chance to make a decision, and then you have to live with the consequences of it.”
MT by Meghan March is book two in her The Magnolia Duet.
The story picks up immediatedly where the previous book was left off. MT is not a stand alone.
Magnolia and Moses are in for the ride of their lives. And this is their story.
You know that book that you can’t stop thinking about? The one you wish you could read all over again for the very first time? MT is One of the most beautifully told romances I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading, this is the kind of story that stays with you, moves you. A breathlessly romantic tale , fast paced and action packed. I resented every single moment I had to spend away from these characters, and fell every bit in love with them as they do with each other. Make room in your life for Magnolia and Moses, 5 stars.
Action packed conclusion to the Magnolia duet!! Moses and Magnolia are in a fight for their lives and the two of them just complete each other. There are a lot of twists and turns that kept me glued to my Kindle throughout. This was such an epic book that I laughed, cried and was on the edge of my seat biting my nails the whole time. Anything this author writes I devour it and I can’t wait for her next book!!!
After the way Creole Kingpin ended I couldn’t wait to dive back into the final part of Magnolia and Moses story.
Well I thought the first part was Meghan’s best book ever, I will have to amend that to include this duet. Hands down my favourite of Meghan’s books ever!
This final part of Magnolia and Moses’s story has you on complete tender hooks just waiting to see what else could possibly happen.
I was SO not ready for this book to end. I devoured it way too quickly because it just completely sucked me in. And this is the first in a while that I will say Meghan made me cry.
So be fully prepared for the gut wrenching, rollercoaster of a ride that is Magnolia and Moses’s story.
5 Stars
4.5 Stars!!
As soon as I finished reading Creole Kingpin I started counting down the days until Madam Temptress released! I was so very happy to jump back into this world and be back with these characters. I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next and once I started reading I was glued to my kindle! I loved this duet!
Just like with the first book, This second book in Magnolia and Moses’ journey was all kinds of addictive for me! I couldn’t get enough of their story and everything they made me feel.
I wasn’t sure which direction their story was going to go next and I couldn’t wait to find out!
With the Magnolia Duet, Ms.March created such a unique and page turner of a journey! I can’t wait for more of her words!
*I volunteered to read and review a copy of this book from the author*
MOSES: Magnolia Marie Maison can have my fucking soul too.
Get ready for a thrill of a ride from Meghan March. I counted the days until the end of Magnolia
Marie Maison’s and Moses story. I cannot say enough of the way Ms. March, takes these characters and brings them to life. I have read every book she has written and have to say the Mount series is on the top of the list.
Meghan March brings that back in this book with Magnolia and Moses needing Mount and Kiera’s help. The angst, twists and turns Madam Temptress has is off the charts and it deserves every 5 star rating. The worry and the feels for Magnolia and Moses her soulmate keep you turning the pages.
The NOLA setting of Ms March’s books is a wonderful place where the dark side lives and the law is mostly unlawful. The narration by Erin Mallon and of course the sexy voice of Joe Arden. brings all the characters to life. Well done, again Meghan March can’t wait for the next series.
Madam Temptress is the fantastic conclusion to The Magnolia Duet and in typical Meghan March fashion she has given us a story filled with great characters and an amazing storyline filled with suspense and intrigue as the mystery of who is after Magnolia is revealed and brought to justice or at least Moses’ version of justice!
Great duet! Grab your copy and hold on for a crazy ride!
4.5 stars!!
Moses and Mags are back and they take us on an emotional rollercoaster full of ups and downs as these two try to survive to get their happily-ever-after. With a murderer on the loose, they must stick together and fight for the love they deserve.
Madam Temptress gives us more of Moses and Mags and their undying love. Moses is all in, and I loved the way he shows Magnolia how much he loves her.
“I will fight for this.
For us.
For our future.
Come hell or high water, I’m never letting her go.”
And fight he does! He isn’t letting anything touch Mags and it is totally swoonworthy. Moses will do anything to protect her even if it means asking for help. I loved that they realize they are not invincible and can’t always do things on their own. I love that their vulnerabilities are real and though they have fear and heartache, they won’t give up. They’ve come too far and aren’t ready for it all to end.
“Whatever comes, we handle it together. That’s how it works from here on out. We’re a team, and I’m not letting anything happen to you. I waited to damn long for my second chance to risk throwing it all away.”
Moses and Mags are the perfect match and balance each other out. They are in it together and are better for it. They trust, love, and believe in each other and I love that they are honest and open. I truly believe that together they can make it through anything.
“That’s what real love does…It makes you stronger than you ever dreamed and do things you never imagined possible.”
I enjoyed the romance but I loved how this book really revolves around the threat to Magnolia. We are thrown back into a world of mystery and murder, and the suspense builds in the most delicious way. At times, you don’t have a clue who will make it out alive or who is the one determined to get revenge. There is a lot of death in the book and it’s frightening but I love the warped nature of the story. It was fast-paced and surprising, and I loved the twists.
The ending wrapped up quickly but I wasn’t bothered by it. I liked the way it ended and I adored the epilogue. Talk about putting a solid smile on my face!!
Overall, Madam Temptress is an awesome conclusion to the Magnolia Duet and I am so happy with Moses and Magnolia’s love story!!
Awesome binge read of this amazing duet!
Guys. Meghan did it. She SLAYED with this read. I didn’t know how much I needed this conclusion till I read it. IT was beautiful and crazy and just, everything Magnolia deserved.
Don’t get me wrong, this was a WILD ride. This was a ride that you couldn’t get off of if you even wanted to. With Mount and Kiera in this read hard core, you really get everything you want with this read. A dive back into some favorites worlds and go on a whole new adventure you don’t see coming.
This is the conclusion to the duet. If you read the first book, you will read this one, we both know that. SO do it. Read it.
Holy Cow!! That is about all I could say after staying up until 3 am reading Moses and Magnolia’s conclusion. There were some parts that had me bawling my eyes out, and some that were just too adorable. I love all of the new characters and the past as well. Having Mount and Keira play such a big roll in this was epic. But dang Meghan, stop making me want to live on an island somewhere and play in the sand all day while drinking fancy drinks!
I enjoyed this duet a lot, Magnolia and Moses’s story was fantastic, I am totally in love with it, the suspenseful romance with steamy scenes that Meghan March creates are addictive and simply a must-read. This book starts where Creole Kingpin left us. This book wraps up the story in a perfect way. I would love to relieve it all on audiobook. I definitely loved the twists and turns through the story, keeping me on the edge. Another phenomenal reading from a very talented author!
As I mentioned in the first book of this series, I was super excited to get more background and learning more about Magnolia. She is a heck of a woman and the perfect match for Moses. I wasnt sure about this guy because he didnt give off good vibes in Legend, so I was super unsure about him. But as always with March’s men that she writes, he was redeemed and totally awesome.
Madam Tempress follows Moses and Magnolia who are still trying to solve who this killer is that is after her. She gets a small bomb dropped on her by Mount about Moses and secrets but these two can get through anything. I loved how she didnt care for any flaws that he may have and that she took him as is and same with Moses for her.
Of course being best friend with Keira aka Mounts wife, we get a lot more of my favorite couple and get to see mount with there ever so cute baby girl. Can I just say I loved when a tough as nails scary man like Mount is all sweet and soft for his baby girl, holy man I love him even more. They two are heavily focused in this book, because as Kiera’s bff and Magnolia with a target on her back, that means anyone close to her is at risk.
The suspense is killer in this book and I was so worried on how this was going to end not only for Magnolia but for her friend too. As always the romance is amazing, March knows her romance and knows how much her alpha men love their women and boy do they love them something deep. This was a fantastic duet and I loved going back to my favorite series and bringing in more fun secondary characters like Moses crew and Rhoades!!! I want more Rhoads!
Underwhelmed by this book. A lot of what was supposed to be “big reveals” I felt were just ho-hum no big deal. The cliffhanger from Creole Kingpin fell flat for me; even Magnolia’s response was basically that’s it?? I was more interested in the Mount and Keira parts to be honest and the plot “twists” that involved them felt really unbelievable knowing their characters from previous books, especially Mount.
If you’ve read the first book, you’ll no doubt want to know how it finishes. The epilogue was my favorite part. I almost feel like this could’ve just been a love story without all the added drama and contained in one book.
I’m so in love with this story, I just did not want it to end! Madam Temptress is the epic conclusion to the Magnolia Duet and Meghan March did not let me down! Magnolia and Moses own my heart and I just cannot believe all the twists and turns and the OMG moments! The swoon-worthy moments and the undeniable chemistry between Magnolia and Moses and I could not get enough of them. This was definitely one of the best duets I’ve read this year!
I can think of the right words to describe this duet! Moses and Magnolia are truly mind-blowing! Between Moses ultra-alpha yet loving tendencies and Magnolia bad-a$$ ways–they have blown my mind. Meghan March did not disappoint when she created this story. I love how she brought Mount and Keira in with some updates on their lives. You must read this duet!!!
Picking up soon after Moses revealed the truth about his first interaction with Magnolia years ago, this story goes full steam ahead as she needs to put that truth behind her to focus on the here and now. With her life in danger from a man bent on revenge she’ll need Moses more than ever in a story that had my heart racing, my cheeks blushing, as all the connections finally came together in a thrilling conclusion to a duet that was very well-crafted.
This time around readers will get greater insight into Moses, the rough around the edges hero whose past is littered with questionable acts, and it made me even more attracted to him. He’s sexy, commanding, with a talent for dirty talk, but oh so protective when it comes to Magnolia. On the outside he’s a badass, but on the inside he shows a heart of gold. Magnolia’s his perfect other half with a past full of tough choices that have made her stronger but also made her many enemies. As a heroine I loved her for her strong will and acceptance of herself. She makes no excuses for her past, and despite unexpected blasts from that past, she forges ahead to find the villain threatening her HEA. She’s the kind of heroine you can’t help but admire and I thoroughly enjoyed the sizzling connection between her and Moses. They were a formidable pair with a steamy and suspenseful journey full of twists and turns that kept me glued to the pages.
By the turn of the final page I was left breathless yet fulfilled. With an appealing main couple, who I was fully invested in, Ms. March has crafted another winner. Bringing past couple Mount and Keira back was a delightful addition to the story too as Mount’s another drool-worthy bad boy who’s oh so good. He and Keira were a solid support and brought a few chuckles with them too. While I was sad to see the players inhabiting this world reach their HEAs, I enjoyed all the hard work it took to get there and commend Ms. March for her ability to beautifully balance suspense and romance!
