In too fast…
Trista Lennon-Carter received a phone call that will change her tranquil life with her husband, rock star Linx Carter, in the blink of an eye. All she knows is her brother, Trey, is either dead or being held against his will in Northern Ireland and despite him being the Demon’s Bastards’ Sergeant-at-Arms, he needs her help.
In too far…
To save Trey, Trista will have to take Linx back to the very place she grew up and the same place she’s wanted to escape from her entire life. She will also have to involve the very Motorcycle clubs she has no wish to deal with ever again. When it is a life or death situation, she would do anything to save the only family she has left.
In too deep…
The club life has become ingrained in Trista like a tattoo and to save her brother, she will be forced to become the person she most feared was a part of her all along: a vengeful, fearless murderer who will stop at nothing to save Trey. With her life and that of her husband’s at stake, will she survive the nightmare their world has become, or will it drag them back into the criminal cesspool she has finally managed to escape?
The stunning conclusion to The Lovers Duet, Trista and Linx’s journey will be one of strife, hardship and beyond the boundaries of anything they have ever had to face before. Will they be able to endure or will the past and their current present ruin their future happy ever after?
As many
of you might be able to tell, I am a complete fan of Selene’s work. From the first book of hers that I have read,
I can’t get enough of the characters!
When I was given the chance to read this book, of course I jumped at the
chance to do so!
This is
the second book in the series, and although you don’t HAVE to read the first
book to understand what is going on, it wouldn’t hurt if you did! (Are you picking up the hint there?) We get to spend some more time with Trisha
and Linx in this book, which I thought was great because I didn’t want their
story to end.
The
book is completely action packed, from the beginning to the end of it. There is not one page that isn’t full of
action and suspense to keep you in the story.
Granted, at times it did feel as though there was too much going
on. However Selene has the ability to
write all of this action and still keep you draw in the story. While there are some cliffhangers left at the
end of this book, it doesn’t take away from the story at all in my opinion.
My only
complaint about the book would be that Trisha’s character has always been an
“in your face” type of girl. There was
one part of the story where she finds out about Linx’s past (and that’s all I’m
telling you about it, but it’s a good one!) and she didn’t really “react” to
the information. While I do understand
taking things in stride, I felt like there could have been more from her about
the whole situation.
I did
enjoy how in this book we did get to know some of the other characters that
have been mentioned in all the previous books (not just this series but also
Selene’s other books). It was really
interesting to begin to understand why the characters act the way that they do. So I think it was really great of her to add
that information.
Overall,
in regards to this book, I did enjoy the second part of Trisha and Linx’s story
and I can’t wait to see what is in store for them in the future.

Out From Under (The Lovers Duet #1)
Trista Lennon is strong, independent and only desires freedom. Freedom from the control of her parents, freedom from the motorcycle gangs she has had to put up with her whole life and freedom from a relationship that will trap her into the very life she has no wish to ever live.
The day before she’s supposed to leave for Stanford University to pursue her dreams, her world is shattered. After a tragedy that tears her family apart, Trey, her cousin, Talia, invites her to L.A. Her life is all the sudden Hollywood stars and sunshine, late nights and wild parties.
And then she meets him.
Linx Carter isn’t looking for a relationship. He survived a dysfunctional marriage with his childhood sweetheart, which produced two sons, an inability to trust women and a multitude of lies. He merely wants to recuperate from a rough, six month tour Winter’s Regret just completed with superstar band, Scarlet Fever, and enjoy a little peace and quiet.
Until he sees her.
Trista and Linx fight their attraction for one another like war on a battlefield.
She has a closetful of secrets and he would rather be single and pathetic than date a teenage girl who seems older than her years. However the passion between them is too much to resist and they realize in order to heal one another, they must destroy the walls they have constructed so tightly around their hearts.
