"Sweet Little Lies is the conclusion of Dirty little secret duet, Hazel and Gabriel’s story. I fell in love with Gabriel In the first book and couldn’t wait for his story. <br/><br/> Hazel is Heath’s daughter and poor girl, her mother is an alcoholic witch, and her father is a workaholic. Needless to say, she has daddy’s issues. <br/><br/><b> Congrats on the birth of my daddy issues. It’s a boy.<br/><br/><p> Gabriel is Heath’s best friend. Alpha handsome, Dom, and businessman. Gabriel has set so many rules in his life and hasn’t had any serious relationships. He needs and wants order and control. <br/><br/><br/> Hazel has set her eyes set on Gabriel. As much as he tries to push her away, she keeps drawing him in. As what starts as physical turns into something different, lines are crossed <br/><br/><b> <br/>“Like a moth to a flame, she was this bright light that brought happiness into my life, and I just couldn’t stop<br/><br/>The more I resisted her beautiful glow, the more she got to me.<br/><br/><p>. So many times, I wanted to smack Gabriel and Hazel to knock some sense into them. There is the whole issue of Hazel’s father. Gabriel is a sadist with some dark tastes, which Gabriel has seen in the past. Both are afraid of what will happen if he finds out. There is a ton of push/pull, steam, and angst, with some suspense. My only criticism is a little more research on the BDSM community. However, it’s a great, fun, and dirty read, and I liked the storyline. I hope in the future we see more of Grayson.<br/><br/><br/>I received an arc in exchange for my honest review"
