Publisher's summary

Those that truly know August Greenfield, will tell you that I live my life to the fullest. Work hard as part of the team at Jameson Force Security but play just as hard at the Wicked Horse Vegas. I have no regrets about my life. Well, maybe just one.

Leighton Hale was my first love and the woman I wanted to spend my life with, but one day she was just gone. Vanished without a trace. Even my extensive contacts as part of the team at Jameson left me empty-handed in my search for answers. My single remorse is never being able to find out what happened to her, because no matter how difficult the truth may be, it can’t be as bad as never knowing at all.

Ten years later, a knock on my front door brings me face-to-face with the woman I thought I’d never see again and nothing in my life could have prepared me for the secrets she holds.

Difficult to turn off

Wicked Secret is the eighth book in the Wicked Horse Vegas series. While this is a part of a series, can it be read as a stand alone, yes it can. This book can be read totally as a stand alone as I have only read a couple of the books in the series and was not lost with the characters. I did enjoy how the author tied in characters from another series and it had me excited with this tie in because that other series, Jameson Force Security, is more in suspense and mystery so I had hoped there would be more of that going on in this series. I was disappointed that it didn’t happen, even though there was some great opportunity for it, which is a large part as to why I am giving this the four stars and not five stars. Don’t get me wrong, there is some suspense and a twist or two but the author resolved the mystery sooner and didn’t really have that surprise factor for me. I really loved how the narrators really brought August and Leighton to live. They did an awesome job in portraying what the characters were feeling and made it very easy to visualize what was happening in the story. I had a very difficult time turning the book off and found myself listening while working from home. I’m looking forward to more from this author as there were hints to some upcoming events that are to come in other series.

Another Amazing Story!!

Absolutely love this series!! The next saga in the Wicked Horse doesn’t disappoint!! This one gives us a second chance romance. This is August’s story he is a member of Jamison Force and his motto is work hard play harder and the Wicked Horse club fits perfectly in his life. Until one night his world completely comes to a stand still when his first love comes back into his life after ten years. He doesn’t want her anywhere near him after her sudden disappearance. However fate doesn’t always play fair.

The narrators did a perfect job!!

Love!

I lived it! These narrators are great as well as this story! The writing kept me listening non stop!!!
I am really falling in love w/ Sawyer Bennetts writing style and characters!
She gives you complex characters and storylines that are easy to follow but yet have a lot of depth as well. It always flows and keeps me hooked. Theres always some fun, sexy, and drama. Perfect mix!
Narration is from 2 of my favorites.

Hot!

Wicked Secret is the eighth book in the Wicked Horse Vegas Series. This book is amazingly interconnected with the Jameson Security Series. When these two worlds collide, you got the heat from one, and the suspense from the other! I like these Series with interconnected characters. August and Leighton's story is an amazing, steamy, and emotional second chance to love. August is a powerful man, dominant and protective. Leighton is a beautiful woman, strong and independent. Their chemistry is like fire! I like how they come to terms with their past, and how they fight for their future. The storyline is captivating, suspenseful, and fast paced, filled with secrets and mystery. You can listen to this audiobook as a standalone, but I believe it's better to listen to this Series in order. Kirsten Leigh and Lance Greenfield did a great job with the narration.

Wicked Secret

Oh yes! All the goodness of the Wicked Horse Vegas with the added twist of the hero being part of Jameson Force Security Vegas Division. August is floored when he answers his door in the middle of the night and the girl who disappeared 10 years ago is there. Surprise! She and her dad disappeared in middle of the night and have been in WITSEC, and now she has shown up because her son, their son, is sick and needs a stem cell transplant. This one was full of all the feels and all the drama expected but also lots of steam as expected of a Wicked Horse book. Definitely a recommendation from me! Great narrators!

Secrets and Teasers

Wow, what a secret to keep. How do you tell your high school boyfriend why you disappeared in the dead of night and never contacted him? And now, ten years later, how do you tell him why you finally searched him out? Leighton has so much to explain and August has so much anger to deal with. It's a wonder these two can stand to be in the same room.

Leave it to Kynan to make it work. I love Kynan. He has his guys backs no matter what. And he will come through yet again with what is needed.

And Sawyer Bennett, I love you but I hate you. You are such a tease in this book. What will happen with Malik? You are stoking the fires yet again.

This was my first adventure with Lance Greenfield and Kristen Leigh. I loved Lance as August. He had the gruffness and the gentleness of this character. Kristen handled Leighton well. Especially her exasperation with August about constantly throwing it in her face that she kept Sam from him for 9 years. Excellent choice for narrators.

Wickedly hot!!

4.5 Wicked Stars! Holy hotness! Second chance storyline with scorching hot chemistry and a twist. August and Leighton’s story will give you all the FEELS! Lance Greenfield and Kristen Leigh nailed the narration! Another great addition to this series!

Oustanding!!!!!

Kirsten Leigh and Lance Greenfield did an amazing job with this story. I loved what their voices did to these characters and had me listening to this book for a solid run. This storyline was incredible as well. Leighton and August have an incredible story being sweethearts when they were young. Leighton's life turned upside down which created for their break up and then suddenly due to circumstances they are placed back in each other's orbits. I found the story line to be an original story line that was PACKED with some fantastic steam and all the feels for all these two have gone through.

My favorite part of these books are how they are independent but they do have a link throughout where I still get glimpses of other characters.

Wicked Secret

Well, damn...

From the very start of this book, it hits your right in the heart, and just keeps hitting you! I wasn't quite prepared for all toll this was going to take on my heart.

Every single character in this, from August to Leighton, to Sam and Mike...every single one is just going to take over and make you love them. I was not emotionally prepared to love all of them so much. And with the twists and turns of the mob, WITSEC and pediatric cancer treatments, they keep you on the edge of your seat wanting to make sure that everything is going to work out.

Kirsten Leigh and Lance Greenfield could not have done a better job. They nailed it!

So good

This is one amazing series and August & Leighton's story did not disappoint!
Man oh man what a secret for Leighton to keep from August...I will say he handled it pretty good-ish..
August is an intimidatingly sexy dominate man, which is only made better by Lance Greenfield's sexy voice.
Leighton is a timid girl with a big secret, that Kirsten Leigh really sells with her sweet voice.
Telling August will take all her courage and strength.
August will use that secret and play it to his dirty advantage, but Leighton will love it!
Gawwww how I missed the Wicked Horse so much and listening to Lance and Kirsten just made it that much more life like.
