Tricked Truths [Kindle Edition]

Beth Kery (Author)

Book Description

Grace Jamison had left the little town of Everly twelve years ago with her son and vowed never to return. But in order to move on with her future, she finds she has to return to her hometown and fix the wrongs of the past -- starting with the only man who had the power to hurt her.

The last person Trick Burnett wanted to see on West End property was his adulterous one time stepmother -- the woman responsible for his father's murder. Too bad his body seemed to have a mind of its own where Grace was concerned.

Trick hated secrets and Grace was a walking cache of them. He wasn't above committing sexual blackmail in order to trick the truth from her time and again. Her sweet responsiveness always left him hungry for more until the mere revelation of her dark secrets was no longer enough. He couldn't rest until he had everything from her -- mind, body and soul.

Editorial Reviews

Review

TRICKED TRUTHS is a prime example of Beth Kery's exceptional writing abilities. The story drew me in and I couldn't put it down until I had read the final word. 5 Blue Ribbons from Romance Junkies
 
 
I read so many books where the characters and stories can easily overlap, but never with a Beth Kery novel. She takes these seemingly staid and typical staples of the romance genre and adds much needed complexity and originality that makes her stories such an indelible experience.

I loved this story. I don't know why it doesn't have more reviews, especially since it's a free read. It has great characters and a well developed plot that keeps the ending a surprise until you get there.

1.0 out of 5 stars Awful story October 14, 2012

By 1ladydevil

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

This story was awful. The heroine married the hero's dad because she needed money to take care of her brother who is ill. She was 16 at the time and throughout the marriage the father never had intercourse with her but had her perform oral sex frequently. The heroine did not seem to mind. I was so disgusted, I wanted to throw up. The book portrays the heroine as a delicate and sweet woman and I just didn't see it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The cover doesn't do this book justice August 14, 2012

By Mags

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

In my opinion the cover of this book is horrible and belies its quality. It made me think it should have been the cover of an 80's porn movie. I feared the cheesy cover and free price were telltale signs of low quality story telling. Even though my first impression told me to stay away from it, I "purchased" the book anyway based on the reviews. It was free and if I didn't like it, I wouldn't read it - no harm no foul. Much to my surprise, the book was well written, had good character development, and the story was creative as well as capturing. The book was definitely steamy and the intense sex scenes carried on for pages and pages.

When I finished the book I felt a bit lost as I had become engrossed in the characters and the story kept replaying in my mind (which to me is the sign of a good book). Since I couldn't stop thinking about the story, I read it again, the next day. I have since done a little more homework and found Beth Kery has many books out there, almost all with reviews in the 4-5 range. I am now reading my second Beth Kery book and am excited to see a new story line that promises to deliver a similar impact as this book did.

*For those of you with issues regarding editing: this book has some editing issues. I realize that, but my review is based on the story, not the editing and I include this footnote as a courtesy to readers who don't share the same opinion

5.0 out of 5 stars Smokin' Hot Read! July 23, 2012

By kgkdh

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

I picked this up yesterday for free and stayed up all night reading it. It was an awesome, very erotic read!

Grace moves back to her old town where she inherited a guest home from her dead husband. Unfortunately, her step son, who older than she is, lives in the main house on the same property. He believes that she had an affair with another man while married to his father, and said man, killed his father--shot him during an argument. He blames her for his father's death, but doesn't know the true circumstances of why Grace agreed to marry his father (she was only seventeen at the time) or why the man shot his father. What he does know is that ever since he saw her as a teen, he's been in love with her. And he hates her and himself for his strong feelings toward this woman.

Grace also is attracted to Trick, but she believes he hates her and blames her for his father's death. From the moment she moves back, she is torn between lusting after him and trying to keep her distance. Soon, Trick realizes she's also brought her adolescent son (who he believes is his brother) and he wants to spend time with him. So it becomes difficult for them to maintain their distance.

The chemistry between Grace and Trick is so strong - both lead characters are trying to resolve their feelings of distrust, love, lust. The love scenes are unbelievably hot. And the thing is that the reader doesn't find out what is going to happen until the very end of the book. Let's just say Ms. Grace is holding out some on secrets that are game changers.

This is a really great erotic read! Highly recommended!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible August 26, 2012

By C. Lowehill

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

what a epic let-down. this book could have been so much better. but there was no plot and tons of pointless oral sex and it wasn't even sexy sex, more like gross and crude. the main male lead didn't even think the main female lead was good enough to have normal intercorse with so he did her in the ass. gross much.
