{Review} Unmasking Charlotte by M.D. Saperstein and Andria Large

Synopsis

Some say that I'm cynical. Some say that I'm flippant. But I am neither of those things. I am just a realist, who through an unfortunate turn of events, learned the hard way that everything is in fact black or white. At least for me it is, and always will be.

But then there is Calvin King. The thorn in my side, the pain in my ass. He is what some would call the perfect man - an imposing businessman, an even more impressive ladies’ man. Every man wants to be him and every woman just wants him. At least that is what I hear. I’m not admitting to anything beyond that.

What I do know and will concede to, is that my resolve is tested as soon as I meet Calvin. He ticks every box off my checklist - sexy as sin, tall, dark, rich, intelligent, and funny. My body craves just the thought of him. How can I possibly keep him at arm’s length when he is the only man I want and desire? And it doesn’t help that he kisses like a god and sets my body on fire. Crap! Don’t ask me how I know that, he doesn’t play fair.

Most importantly, I can’t let him unmask me, it’s my only defense.

Unmasking Charlotte is book 2 of the Taboo Love series and picks up where Hey There, Delilah left off. As with Hey There, Delilah, it is a standalone - so don’t worry if you haven’t read Hey There, Delilah, yet - with a HEA. That means no cliffhanger! Oh, and expect to see some of your favorite characters.

Review

M.S. Saperstein and Andria Large have brought us the next installment in The Taboo Love series. I fell in love with Delilah and Nic in Hey There, Delilah as they figured out how to lose love and find it again in an unlikely place. Now, it is their best friend’s turns to battle the war of love. In Unmasking Charlotte we get to see our favorite feisty friend, Charlotte, navigate not only a bumpy past but which direction she is taking her future. While Charlotte helps Delilah find the love of her life, she stumbles across the mammoth of a man, Calvin King. Both of them have let past events dictate how they are living their lives now for better or worse but when their pasts might not be so distant, can these two friends find comfort in each other? Or will the similarities continue to haunt Charlotte? One thing I loved about Unmasking Charlotte was how everything comes full circle. There was not one detail past, present or future that was not connected seamlessly. Calvin and Charlotte both found themselves in this limbo of being content and not wanting to break this balance by taking the leap of faith towards what they truly desire. As their friendship builds I found my self rooting for them to take the plunge. These two characters are written beautifully and that made this book such an enjoyable read. I give this book a Loved It rating.
