Awesome story
There are actually two stories going on and one is a cliffhanger and will finish in the next book. It gives you an idea of what will be going on. The main story for this is good. Shane is challenged on romance. He doesn’t believe it exists. Isabel is a hopeless romantic and wants Shane. Can Isabel convince Shane? must read to find out. sweet

I love the twists and turns in Cat’s installment of the Secrets of the A-List series. It’s a rollercoaster ride of drama, sexy times, and romance. The perfect book to pop into your beach bag!
I liked this story very much. It’s 2 in the Dynasties: Secrets Of The A List, and it kept the messy good chaos going that was in the first book.
All the gang from #TemptedByScandal made an appearance, but this one focused on Isabel and Shane, and they did not disappoint.
The ups and downs that they go through makes for a load of drama that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
It’s a page turner worth all of your time.
Forbidden love steals the show! With the second book in the Dynasties: Secrets of the A-List mini-series, Cat Schield picks up the continuation with a steaming hot affair between boss and employee. Isabel and Shane were pretty adorable together, and their connection was exciting to watch. The continuing story of Teresa and Liam exploded back into the picture as well. Looking forward to more lust and drama to come!
Hotel concierge Isabel Withers is determined to make The Opulence hotel the “in” place to go for romance in Seattle. Her supervisor isn’t agreeing with a lot of what she wants to do, but when the big boss is in town, she manages to catch his interest and his ear to spin the weave of romance.
Shane Adams isn’t one to mix business with pleasure, but he finds it impossible not to be swayed by the raw emotion Isabel puts into her work. She’s a force to be reckoned with, and he’s enjoying being along for the ride!
Book two in the Dynasties: Secrets of the A-List series it deals with Shane Adams, Isabel Withers and Teresa St. Claire and Liam Christopher’s story. I enjoyed reading. The book does end on a cliff-hanger. I want to read the next book in this series. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Second book in this wonderful series and please make sure you read tempted by scandal first to get the full storyline
This is Shane and Isabel’s story Shane Adams is the President of the Richmond Hotel Group, and Isabel Withers, concierge of The Opulence Hotel. She has always had a thing for her boss but he has never looked at her that way In fact all he seems to have time for is work. Suddenly he realises she exists and it is sweet to watch their romance and connection grow
3.5 stars. Isabel works as a concierge at a luxury mountain resort. She has lusted after Shane, an executive with the same resort, for more than a year. She plans romantic events for guests to enhance their stay. Shane doesn’t believe in romance and she tries to change his mind. He has been having second thought as his life has consisted of work, work, work with almost no social life while his friends are getting married and having families. Could Isabel be right? Entertaining!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book
Isabel is fiery and passionate – just like her red hair suggests; full of ideas and inspiration. Shane is focused on his goal of success, and so the only thing in his sights is his career. When the feisty red head knocks him off balance, he might need to rethink the way he measures his success. But turn-about is fair play. Shane isn’t the embodiment of Isabel’s Disney prince, even if his attitude bears a striking resemblance to Beauty’s Beast. I love the way these stories blend together and criss-cross back and forth. I haven’t read the first book in this series, but I’m definitely inspired to go back and read it now. Because, if it’s anything like this one I won’t regret a single second spent with it. I’m also now hooked on these characters and I want to know everything I can about them.

This is the second book in the Dynasties Secrets series and they really should be read in order. This is Isabel and Shane’s story these two were just so cute together if like me you enjoy a good romance with the boss then this is so worth picking up the storyline was good and held my interest all the way through.
I love Isabel’s sense of purpose. She’s a concierge with a vision of turning her luxury hotel into THE destination for a romantic getaway in Seattle. But her boss Shane doesn’t see the value of romance until one stormy, passionate night in Isabel’s arms. Great story!
Taken by Storm is second book in the Dynasties series. I enjoyed reading Shane and Isabel’s story, Isabel is determined to have her romance with Shane and she will not stop until she gets what she wants and what she deserves, we also have the continuation of Liam and Teresa story and they just cannot get their act together it seems like as soon as they make a breakthrough something else comes right back up, I am interested to see how their story unfolds.

Love Cat’s books!
Second book in Dynasties series.
Great story, loved Isabel and Shane.
Isabel is 100% romantic.
Shane is 100% workaholic.
Will they find common ground?
Will Isabel get her HEA?
We learn more about Theresa and Liam too.
Another great read.
Spunky meets staid.
Isabel Withers is the head concierge at The Opulance, a hotel an hour east of Seattle. She’s smitten with Shane Adams, the president of the hotel group.
Isabel is spunky and cheeky. She puts a proposal to Shane to improve the romance factor at the hotel.
Shane is staid, all work, just a smidge play and he’s taken with Isabel but isn’t going to mix business with pleasure.
There’s also Teresa and Liam tempestuous interactions. But that’s another story…
