Book 1: Conflicted
Mia Ryan was on the path to make all her dreams come true. Her life was everything she wanted it to be; until one fateful night changed everything – leaving her broken and without direction. Nearly a year later, she still has little faith in anyone or anything. Desperate to reclaim her life’s ambition, she takes an unexpected offer that promises to solve all her problems. But as Mia moves forward, she’s faced with obstacles she couldn’t have foreseen. The biggest of them lies within the mystery of Ethan Fitzgerald; a man who affects her like no other, but who she should avoid pursuing, at all costs.
On a mission himself, Ethan Fitzgerald didn’t care who he pissed off on his road to fulfill his mother’s dying wish. He relied on himself, and was closed off to the world around him – until Mia Ryan walked through his door. Normally one to avoid messy emotions, Ethan’s world is turned upside down by Mia, and he can’t seem to get enough of her.
There are lines you can cross that will change the course of your life forever …
Book 2: Complicated
Mia Ryan has learned the hard way that her choices can have horrible consequences. Taking an offer that was supposed to get her life back on track was nothing but a ploy. To keep the ones she holds dear safe, she’s forced to finish what she started, without any hope of finding out why she was targeted in the first place. Though Mia has Ethan by her side, she can’t seem to believe in him, especially since most of his life remains a mystery.
Ethan Fitzgerald has done everything in his power to prove to Mia that she can trust him, but it never seems to be enough to convince her to drop the last wall around her heart. With deep and dark secrets lurking around every corner, he has his own plan to keep Mia from any danger, but it may just shatter their love forever.
There are so many questions – with even more shocking answers – and when Mia uncovers the truth, nothing will ever be the same…
Book 3: Concealed
Mia Ryan’s past and present are about to collide in startling ways, leaving her to question everything she’s ever known about herself. After a shocking turn of events that revealed some mind-blowing secrets, Mia becomes more determined than ever to take back her life from the darkness that’s consumed her. In her pursuit for answers, she quickly discovers that parts of her past, which have always been a mystery, might be the key to saving the ones she loves…and the man that stole her heart.
Ethan Fitzgerald knows that things are never what they seem. Taking down his father’s empire wasn’t supposed to be a challenge—that was before Mia Ryan waltzed through his door. Forever changed by a love that reignites his purpose in life, Ethan is willing to do whatever it takes to protect Mia, and his enemies know it.In this edge of your seat finale of the Secrets and Lies series, the stakes are higher than they’ve ever been before.
Can Mia and Ethan’s relationship withstand the malicious forces threatening them, or is letting go the answer that saves them and the ones they love? Everything comes at a cost—and it might just be true love.
Renee’s Five Star Review
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
This is a box set that includes the three books in the Secrets and Lies Series from M.M. Koenig. It includes Conflicted, Complicated and Concealed. If you have already read this series and loved it the great thing is if you get this box set you are getting bonus material and deleted scenes. I have never read this series so it was all new to me.
Conflicted is the story of Ethan Fitzgerald and Mia Ryan. I am going to go ahead and tell you that this book was a little hard for me to get into and it get going like I needed it to to really have me pulled into the story. Then just as suddenly as your thinking you might never get into this book you’re smacked up the side of the head and you don’t know what your even thinking anymore. Your flipped upside down and sideway and really left with a ton of questions by the time you are done. Mia is a girl that is all up in the air and in a bad place when her long time love betrays her and the result is her getting kicked out of college. She ends up living with her best friend and hunting for a job. One phone call changes her life and she is made a job offer that she just can not refuse. She soon is in over her head and things really go against her morals and finds herself the mole inside a financial company trying to get information to bring it all down to the ground. But the job really makes her feel alive again after feeling nothing or so long. Ethan is a real true alpha and her really gets under the skin of quiet a few women. He’s certainly swoon worthy and Mia is not immune to his charms. But, he is also her new boss of the company she is a mole in. These two have an attraction that is fire from the very beginning. The longer they work together the more the flame grows and she is figuring out that what she thought she was sent there to do just might not be the best thing to do after all and then her past comes calling too and poor Mia is just a mess. This book might have started out slow but I ended up loving it so very much.
Complicated
Thank goodness this was a box set and we get to dive into the place we left off in Conflicted. This book is harder to review because I don’t really want to give anything away. There is a lot going on in this book. Hints of what is actually going on are flying at you and your trying to process it all and see if you can figure out what is going on or what will happen next. All I can say is buckle up, pay attention and enjoy the ride. You might also want to think the stars that you have the next book only a page away.
Concealed
I don’t even think I need to really tell you what happens in this book either. But it was a fun ride to try and figure it all out. After all a web of lies and deceit has to end somewhere doesn’t it? The truth is about to come flying off the pages and for Mia and Ethan that brings everything crashing down around them and I don’t just mean that as a figure of speech either. This book is an emotional rollercoaster. It is also were we get a lot of character development and Mia and Ethan book are going to transform before your very eyes. Remember when in book one I said that things might just got against Mia’s moral. Well the morals have come back around and its time to see if they stick with them or throw them out the window. I have loved reading this series. It has really kept me on my toes and I loved every single second of it.
