Fiery Surrender by Mari Carr and Lila DuBois

Langston is a new member of the Trinity Masters.  He doesn't fully know how the society works when he is called to the altar to meet his trinity.  The Grand Master pairs him with Rich and Mina and sends them to Europe to investigate a bombing.  The new trinity race against the clock to find a killer.

I loved Langston in "Honor's Revenge" and was thrilled he got his own book.  This book was amazing.  I love the suspense in the book along with the hot, steamy romance.  Every book in the series is wonderful and this is just the latest.  I can't wait for the next book.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC provided by the authors.  Thank you!

The Earl Not Taken by A.S. Fenichel

Poppy was one of a group of four girls that were sent to boarding school where they forged a bond and called themselves the Wallflowers.  One of her friends is to be married to a duke without ever having seen him.  Poppy makes it her mission to make sure that the prospective husband is an honorable man.  little did she know she was going to be aided by London's most unsuitable rake.

Rhys Draper, Earl of Marsden, has known Poppy since she was sent to boarding school with his sister.  Their first meeting was an utter disaster and branded Rhys an unsuitable rake in Poppy's eyes.  Rhys wants a chance to redeem himself and will help Poppy in her endeavors.  As they attempt to find out more about the prospective Duke husband, Rhys develops feelings for Poppy.  Can Poppy discover the man Rhys truly is and discover her own HEA?

I loved this book.  It was so well written.  While the book centers around Rhys and Poppy, the other Wallflowers play supporting characters.  I felt bad that Poppy misjudged Rhys.  Poppy was a strong character that stood on her own against her self-centered parents.  I liked the ending of the book and I can't wait for the next book in the series.
