Wickedly Betrayed by Alex Grayson

Mac and Mia's story is a second chance romance that was a long time coming and for a small town, Jaded Hollow is certainly full of secrets. While ten years going by without anyone finding out what broke this pair up requires a bit of suspension of belief, Mac and Mia are so good together that you can't help but root for them. The story is well-written and the author has a writing style that quickly pulls you into the lives of the people of Jaded Hollow. From Bailey's continuing to come out of her protective shell, to Nick dealing with his loss and Andrew's quirky, fun-loving flirtations, even the secondary characters are endearing and interesting, making this reader want to know more about them. Mac and Mia's journey back to each other is filled with angst that is quite dark in its nature, but with love and trust, there comes a ray of light in that darkness. Reclaim Me is more than just a romance, it's a tale of family, love, loss, and finally hope.

I really liked that Mac and Mia finally reconnected. I just couldn't get over the whole fact that it took 10 years. And that he married someone who raped him. Most of the story was just not believable. I can't wait to read about Andrew though!

Kind of repetitive, but for some reason I cannot put her books down. Usually only takes me a day or two to get through it. I liked Mack and Mia’s story. Just a little repetitive with the whole guilt thing. But overall, I liked it.

Method: ebook

Rating: 4/5 stars

H rating: 4.5/5 - Mac. I honestly really felt for him..he was a victim and did not deserve all that happened. Only wish? He would have gone to her sooner and tried harder to have her listen. Not attempt it, but just MADE her listen.

h rating: 4.5/5 - Mia. Having been a victim of such terrible circumstances, and losing the love of your life made it so you closed yourself off. Understandably so. It still would have been a bit more of a mature thing to listen. Yes it all sucked, but all of that time lost..*sigh*

Drama: 4/5 - Did not see the brother twist there, but man did that explain some stuff. Good amount of drama..but having read a few of this authors books, that pretty much the norm, and I really love it.

Thoughts: Another great story to the series. Cannot wait for the next one!

What I liked/Didn’t Like: OMG is what sums this book up. The anger that tore them apart all over a stupid misunderstanding made this book awesome to read.

I really liked this one. The only negative thing that makes it a 4 star instead of a 5 star, is the fact that it took 10 YEARS for the truth to FINALLY come out!

In book one, the animosity between Mac and Mia intrigued me, especially as both Bailey and Jaxon witnessed the longing looks they gave each other. Learning that they were in love in the past (and quite possibly in the present), I immediately added this book to my TBR list in order to learn more.

Finding out Mac and Mia's history and what tore them apart was heart wrenching. Finding out that they were apart for 10 years over a misunderstanding was heart breaking. Reading about them rediscovering one another and allowing their love to blossom was heart healing.

Tessa was a crazy witch. She got away with way too much and I'm a little suspicious of Mac's investigative skills because he couldn't figure this out and do something about it. Ten years bro. You can't tell me that not once in those 10 years this Tessa witch didn't act suspect.

Shoot, 10 years prior she should have been in jail or at least should have had a psych eval. Who marries their freaking rapist anyway??? Kid or not... hell naw!!

. The entire scenario, from start to finish wasn't realistic to me, however, I still enjoyed the book. The characters were endearing and sympathetic.

As in book one, there is a bit of suspense, a moderately slow build to the relationship, a somewhat predictable climax, and a sweet epilogue.

Enjoy! xo
