This is the second installment in the Misadventures Series by 2 of my favourite writers. I always strive to be honest when it comes to reviewing my top authors. I have no problem in saying that this was a delight to read. The story begins with Kate mourning the loss of her husband in a tragic accident for over a year. Her sister-in-law convinces her to go to an island destiny for what she believes to be just for R&R. She is shocked to find her husband alive and this is now an unbelievable reunion. As Kate is reeling from finding out her husband is now alive, she now had to question her husband as to why he has been keeping secrets from her all this time. As the story unravels we journey with the husband and wife as we learn the reasons why he stayed away for a year and also all the risks he has taken to be with his wife. Will love conquer all? You will have to read to find out all the answers. I recommend this highly

I really enjoyed this story. What I did loved about this story was the total devotion Kate and Price had for each. The years they've been together has only intensified their love. They attraction has only gotten stronger and their sex life is without a doubt H.O.T. In the face of danger, they were willing to put their life on the line for the other, without any hesitation. It was admirable and beautiful of both characters.

However, I I didn't ever think I would ever say this...but the amount of sex was a bit excessive. In my opinion, it overshadowed the story. It was written so well that I was able comprehend the connection and intimacy Price and Kate shared. It was very evident the love they had for each other was quite strong. But I found myself having to skip over those pages/scenes more and more as I read the story. I just wanted to get back to the mystery and suspense of everything going on and it felt like they had to have sex on nearly every page.

I am still rating this with 4 stars because I really loved the characters and the storyline kept me intrigued from start to finish.

Missing so much....this series is very hit or miss I guess it all depends on who the co author is.

This is the second installment in the misadventures series and it does live up to its erotica reputation. But the question is, unlike the first book, does it have a plot and more to offer than sex? To answer this question, yes it does and it has a little dash of suspense to drive the plot. This book has no connection to book one, so you can read it without reading book one first. Believe me, book two is much better. In this installment, we have husband and wife named Price and Kate, respectively, and we have a lot of steam and a little suspense with Price. Price was believed to be dead for a year following a plane crash, but it is later revealed that he was alive and well. In comes Kate, a journalist who went into a deep depression because of Price's supposed "death". Price's sister decide to lift Kate from her funk and takes her on a tropical vacation for 3 weeks and little does Kate know, her world is about to be changed forever.

I am going to try to not reveal any spoilers, but the blurb pretty much tells you the burning question. Once it is revealed that Price is alive, things start to take an interesting turn. Kate is faced with the decision to stay with Price or give up her entire life in New York. There is one thing that this book does not lack and that is "SEX". There is lots of it, my dear. Anyways, I did enjoy myself while reading and the plot was interesting and so was the characters.

Of course when there is good, there is also bad. This book had the same problem as book one. It had too much sex, if that is even possible. This book had an interesting plot and great characters, but every time the plot would progress, sex would be thrown in it to slow it down. The third part of the book is when the mystery start to unfold and there was a little intensity, but the ending was very underwhelming and rushed. I felt like it was a cliffhanger, but in reality it was not supposed to be a cliffhanger. The book ended so fast that my head starting to spin. I needed a more thought out ending.

Overall, I enjoyed the story and its character and it was better than book one. Besides the ending and epilogue, the book was a solid 4 star with lots of sex

This is my least favorite in the series that I have read so far. I liked Price and his devotion to his wife. I get that Kate was mourning and realizing your husband is really alive is a shock but she bugged me. Also, I didn't feel like I connected to them. It was all sex and not connection or much other storyline.

A good suspense thriller. Even though the passion was hot, one or two romps would have sufficed. A huge portion of the book was devoted to Price and Kate in bed. Although I’m not opposed to some steamy love scene, too much can be off putting at times. I found myself flipping past subsequent scenes and the book moved at a good pace and got down to the nitty gritty of the book, which I loved. I would read more. I love Meredith Wild, even though this wasn’t one of my favorites, I still liked it. Book provided by NetGalley.

This book has everything I enjoy in a book - great characters, steamy bedroom scenes & suspense & intrigue thrown in. I really enjoyed the story & was gripped from the very beginning.

However as much as I enjoy the steamy scenes there was rather a lot of them in this book & towards the end I did find myself skimming over them. I also think the storyline was wrapped up quite abruptly in the final few pages.

Once again I have fallen for the characters in the series. Every book has been seamlessly written as if it is one author everytime. I love the storylines and I end up with smile on my face everytime I finish one of these stories. I definitely can't wait to read more from them.

This is a must read in the Misadventures series. I loved it so much I bought the hardcover copy!.
You can't go wrong with a loving couple whose lives get turned upside down and everything comes crashing down. Only to discover a year later what was real wasn't.

When Kate's husband Price "dies" on a business trip, she's unable to move on in life. Her heart grieves for all the things she wanted to share with him that are lost forever. When she goes on a tropical getaway vacation with her sister-in-law, she discovers that Price is indeed still alive. Have his secrets ruined their chance at happiness for good? Will Kate want to reconcile after she knows the whole truth?

This was a slow starter for me and the ending seemed somewhat abrupt, but the story captured my interest and is worth the read.

***2.5 Stars***

I’m not all too sure what happened with this one. It started out great. That first chapter caught my interest and I really enjoyed how it dove right into the heart of the story, but after that I just got...bored with it. I felt for Kate and understood Price’s reasons for faking his death, but something about their reunion and all that came after just didn’t give me the emotional gut punch I was looking for. The writing was seamless and the smexy was hot, but in the end, this one falls under the “it’s not you, it’s me” shelf for me.
