Reveal is such an intriguing as well as a riveting story that will send you on a roller coaster of a ride!
It starts where Resist ended and believe me when I say your heart will beat so fast at what the characters go through!
I really empathize with Vaughn. She is really trying her absolute best for her niece but there are certain people standing in her way!
I swear Ryker and Vaughn don’t deserve anything that they go through and I was so very worried for what the outcome might be!
Ryker is so incredibly swoonworthy!! That man I tell you!!!
An intense, gripping story that sends you on the ride of your life!! To find out what happens, 1 click it, you won't be sorry!
Highly recommended duet!

Oh, sweet baby Jesus! This was everything I wanted and nothing I was expecting!
Vaughn and Ryker’s story picks up where it heartbreakingly broke off in book one. Ryker has messed up royally, as in there is no going back after his actions. We get his point of view and we understand the why, but you know, sometimes that just doesn’t justify a person’s actions. And Vaughn does not yield to his explanations and pleas for forgiveness. If you like groveling, the first forty percent of this book is filled with the angst of this couple trying to deal with his betrayal and how that affects Vaughn, not just emotionally, but in a way that opens the door to danger.
I loved watching Vaughn and Ryker evolve from two individuals with their issues regarding love and happy ever afters, to a place that was real, one where they had to make the emotional choices of what to give in to and what to fight. But even when they know how they feel and what they want, this isn’t a fairytale where everything automatically works out for them. They are human and flawed and they make decisions that can adversely affect their relationship. And while their troubles are more than what the “normal” couple would experience, the manner in which they dealt with them felt very realistic.
There are many layers to this story, beginning in Resist and continuing throughout Reveal. With the level of emotion written here I wasn’t expecting more but holy heck did I get it! Several times over! When engaged in a story I often can read it in one sitting, but the angst here was so painful at times, I had to take a step back for a breather.
I loved everything about this book. Vaugh and Ryker as well as Lucy and the swoon worthy moments when Ryker was interacting with her, are all characters and images I’ll hold for a long while. And as if all the previous emotions we’re given throughout the story weren’t enough, we get an epilogue that had tears welling in my eyes and my throat clogged from holding back a happy sob. Nothing makes an angsty read more worthwhile than this type of ending.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book provided by NetGalley and Montlake Romance. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Reveal is book two in the Wicked Ways duet and it picks up where Resist leaves off, with Vaughn feeling used and lied to by Ryker after overhearing Ryker and Carter's conversation. Reveal was insanely heavy on the drama and plot twists, which at times, made the book somewhat hard to follow, and at times I felt like it was a bit much and maybe took away from the enjoyment of the book.
I did really enjoy Vaughn and Ryker as characters and enjoyed the uniqueness of the story line. I loved Vaughn's relationship with Lucy and how Ryker stepped right in to visiting with her and how he understood her importance in Vaughn's life. The writing in the book was well done and overall the story was engaging. My one critique is that maybe the author tried to do just a bit too much with the story and there was too much going on at times, but overall it was an enjoyable read.

Vaughn and Ryker are back to wrap up a story line steeped with, what seems to be, unremitting angst and drama. My heart was in my throat the entire way through. I loved the characters, they played great off of one another and the plot arc was carried over successfully from book to book. However, this book seemed to carry an excessive amount of misfortune that made it a bit arduous to get through. While not my favorite, it was still a great wrap up to the series.
Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

This duet blew me away for sure! I can't deal with how great it was! this author is the queen of writing the wow factor to blow your socks off in a matter of seconds!

I can't even put into words what this story did to me! 5 stars, if I could award this a million I would! Kristy takes you on a wild ride filled with emotions, you will feel each and every one while reading this one! This is book 2 in the series, if you think Resist blew your mind, just wait till you read this one! I could not put it down!
Kristy did an amazing job with this story, I have to say I think this is right up there with her Driven series. Don't miss out on this when it comes out. I can't give away anything, just to say that the story of Vaughn & Ryker will take you on a wild roller coaster ride. Grab this when it comes out!

Yes!! This duet is so freaking good I can't get enough of it. I was bummed to have to wait for this book after the first one but it was so worth the wait. This duet is by far one of my favorites and K never seems to disappoint. Love these characters and their chemistry so much. Amazing.
Thank you Netgalley, the author and publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

OMG, there was so much going on with Vaughn and Ryker in this book, I was on the edge of my seat for the entire, wild ride! Some stuff I guessed, some wasn't too surprising, but a couple of things shocked me! Add in the romance, sexy times, and just love of all kinds and you've got one hell of a duet! Can't recommend these books enough!

Flipping heck! Talk about heart in your mouth, suspense at its best, my stomach was rolling. I was a wreck in places. Book 2 follows on directly from book 1 with the dreadful cliffie - the horrid discussion that we were left with between Vaughn, Ryder and Carter the sleazeball (just saying it as it is). Poor Vaughn is trying her best to save her family, not knowing who to trust or believe. It seems the cards are stacked against her at every turn. Not a lot I can say without spoilers. Just know that it’s a rollercoaster of a ride for all concerned, a story with so many twists and turns, lots of sexy time and some brilliant writing. I’ve got to say, this duet would make a great movie. Romantic suspense with a kicka$$ heroine. I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is my honest review.

Ryker and Vaughn consumed me! I couldn't get my hands on this book fast enough! What an emotional, intense journey with this two characters that I adored. I would have read the conclusion of their story straight through if life wouldn't have interfered! LOL Secrets, mystery, drama, lies, steamy chemistry. Ryker couldn't have been more perfect as far as I'm concerned--I loved him and his protectiveness. Vaughn's desire to stand on her own and fight her own battles only made me love her more, while biting my nails for her! If you're looking for a passionate, suspenseful, edge-of-your-seat romantic suspense, look no further. This is why I love this author's writing -- she nails it every single time. 10+ star read and a must-have in my "favorites" library! I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC for NetGalley.

Picking up where Resist left off, this book was all go right from the start. Drama, mystery and suspense, the push and pull between Vaughn and Ryker was intense and the chemistry scorching hot. Thoroughly enjoyed the conclusion to their story!

Things are now scorching HOT! This is not only because of the attraction between our main characters, but the complications affecting them are all twisting the plot and heating up the danger.
Finally, it is time for Ryker to stop resisting what is in plain sight. He is in love with V. If he wants to help her, he must get to know her in spite of her resistance. He is willing to do whatever is necessary to protect her.
In the meantime, things could not get more complicated for V. She has a Senator coming after her. Her "illegal" activities are drawing attention from the law, and Social Services is getting wind there are problems that might affect her claim to adopt her niece Lucy. Only one thing is left for V to do. Step up and be smart trying to find a way out of this maze of trouble.
I am voluntarily reviewing this book. Thanks to the publisher for sharing a copy with me.

Where Resist feels like just the warm up and intro, Reveal has everything. This book was chock full of turmoil and deception and threats around every corner. It was a nonstop struggle for Vaughn and Ryker and Lucy, so worth it all in the end. This was one of those stories that cut super close to the end where it all wrapped up. I kept looking at how far in I was and thinking, but what about this? Are you sure this is only a duet? It was tight but all was resolved. And let me tell ya, there was a lot to resolve.

I really enjoyed this story!!
This story had drama, suspense, romance and it was all packed in a book that was hard to put down.
The story flowed and the characters were well developed and I enjoyed getting to know them.
It is 5 stars from me for this one, I thought it was a thoroughly enjoyable story - very highly recommended!!

Hands down, the best romantic suspense I’ve read! I may have felt like throwing my kindle across the room at the end of Resist, and that feeling didn’t go away with this book...the angst didn’t let up, the surprises didn’t stop coming, and I fast learned to trust no one and expect the unexpected!
Betrayed and destroyed, Vaughn no longer knew who she could trust. How much can one woman take? She is one strong, feisty heroine, but even she has her limits. Ryker is ridiculously sexy, but with all the outside forces working against them, it had me doubting him over and over! Every time they started to feel comfortable and happy, BAM! Is love worth all the pain? Thank god for those steamy, sweet, and swoon worthy moments so I could catch my breath.
Corruption, power struggles, ruthlessness, lies, blackmail, intrigue and suspense...this unputdownable story consumed me.

Bromberg has done it again!! This was the best conclusion to Ryker and Vaughn's story!! You will not be disappointed!

Holy crap that was an intense ride. As with any good chess matches - every player has an idea of what the next move is going to be. However with this series I simply had no idea and the path it took me on left me breathless. Suspense, intrigue, angst, lies, deceptions, half-truths, political cover ups, and bribery and manipulations are interwoven with beautifully written characters and a storyline that had me on the edge of my seat. What I thought was going to happen didn't and what I never even dreamed of did. K. Bromberg you have created another group of characters that will be loved for a very long time.

Reveal, the follow up to Resist is a rollercoaster of a brilliant read. Following straight on from the jaw dropping ending of Resist, Ryder has a job on his hands to prove to Vaughan he didn’t mean any of the things she overheard but was in fact trying to help and protect her.
Their relationship continues but with all the obstacles in their way it leaves you wondering if it can ever survive. I don’t wish to give away any spoilers, just to say if you enjoyed the first book you’ll be blown away by this one. Absolutely riveting and a joy to read with two wonderful main characters.
My thanks to net galley and publishers Montlake for the opportunity to review this book honestly.

What a freaking REVEAL. The title lives up to it's name that is for dang sure. This author almost took me to the brink of death from the suspense. Holy crap, I was not expecting this one to be a nail biter, but boy was I wrong. Overall, this was a well rounded duet, that came together perfectly. I had so many questions at the end of Resist and this author made dang sure, every single one and some was answered. The characters had so much growth from the first part of this duet to the this last one. The way that these characters fought their own battles was inspiring. No matter the bombs thrown at them, they tried like hell to stay above the rubble. There was some amazing redeeming qualities that did not go unnoticed.
These characters are a force to be reckoned with. There was a profound amount of development throughout this whole duet, but especially Reveal. Everything flowed nicely. Overall, Reveal is a spell-bounding - compelling read, that deserves so dang much recognition, and I am praying that people see that! I can not wait to see what this author comes up with next.

What a crazy ride! Everything I was worried about for Vaughn in book one came crashing down on her. I had no idea how she was going to get out of the mess. It seemed that no matter what she did she was going to feel backlash.
Ryker was the bad guy at the end of book one. I love how the author starts out the second book with his pov of those events. We got to see into his mind and what he was thinking. I'm used to reading about hero's who dominate the enemy, so it was a bit surprising to see that Ryker had some vulnerabilities here.
I loved how this story came together. It wasn't predictable and I was left feeling satisfied with how it all came together at the end. This was such a compelling duet. I loved both main characters. They were intriguing and I wanted to see them beat the odds and make it. The added side character of Lucy brought heart to the story.
Overall, this was a pretty exciting read. It's full of drama that will have you riveted to the pages.
