Devious Secret by Bri Blackwood Release and Review

This is the second book in the Brentson University Series from Bri Blackwood. This is a dark college romance trilogy and you need to read the first book, Devious Game or you will be very lost. You will also need to heed the warnings in the beginning of the book since it might contain triggers for some readers. I could not wait to get this book in my hands after the ending of Devious Games. This book picks up right where Devious Games left off and I couldn’t wait to be back in the world of Brentson University. I could not wait to be back with Nash and Raven because the way book one ended I knew this book was already going to be so good. However, with that said it was so good and so much more intense and darker than the Devious Games. Nash has without her permission though, from Brentson University. However he had his reasons for doing this and the main one was to protect her from whoever is out to get her. His solution is to whisk her away to a cabin out in the middle of nowhere where he is hoping they can get their relationship back on track and repair the damage that they have both done to themselves. He wants his second chance and is super determined to get it. After all he knows without a shadow of a doubt that she is the one and has known this since he met her many years ago. If he has to pull out all the stops to get the job done he is willing to do whatever it takes. She means everything to him and you just don’t let that go. Raven however has danger coming at her in every direction that she turns and she doesn’t know who she can trust. Including Nash. After all she knows way to many secrets that people will want kept that way at all cost and his actions at the Cavalier’s mansion proved to her that she needed to get as far away from everyone to keep herself breathing. However the failed attempt to flee ends up with her being in the one place she had not intention of being and that place is a remote cabin with Nash. But once you feel betrayed can you put that out of your mind and relationship and get back to who you were before it happened. Well, I can’t tell you that. But, I can tell you that this book was so much more than I thought it would be and so much more than I was expecting. You are hooked and reading like crazy from the first chapter to the end. I loved that we got to experience with Nash and Raven grow so much in their relationship and individually too. I loved everything about this book, but holy moley the cliffhanger was one I didn’t see coming and now I need that third book like I need air in my lungs. If you have not started this series I recommend that you do it. This is a series you do not want to miss.
