Wicked Secret

Wicked Secret was another phenomenal instalment in the Wicked Horse, Vegas Series. This is a second chance, romantic suspense that I devoured in one sitting. August Greenfield is an ex-cop now working for Jameson Force Security. He frequents the Wicked Horse in his down time. He is content with his life. Leighton is on the run and has been in witness protection program and is hiding a secret that will rock August’s world. The moment Leighton shows up on August’s doorstep their chemistry was evident but due to their past there was a lot of intense emotion between these two as well! August tries very hard to keep Leighton at arms length and keeps up his anger, and defenses for a short time but soon he gives in as he will do anything for her. Leighton has had a tough life and is strong and resilient. I loved the suspense in this one. I adored the way August protects Leighton at all costs. The connection between these two was steamy, and explosive. I couldn't get enough. I love the world that Sawyer Bennett has created with the Wicked Horse Vegas and Jameson Force Security and loved seeing the characters cross over. I also loved getting to know more about August’s billionaire friend, Declan! Can’t wait for his book next. Thank you to the author for an advanced reader copy in exchange of an honest review.
