Mady (Working Class Beauties Book 2) Kindle Edition by S.I. Hayes (Author), J. Haney


Book Excerpt:

"You can't be bored, pulling turns at 160 mph.

For members of the NYC elite, your name is your ticket to success, but I've got other ideas.
My name is Madyson (Mady), Harrington. I'm the firstborn of three triplets that are. My brothers get it all, but I have to dance for my supper. I must earn every bit of freedom with sacrifice. Friends, relationships, they all suffer in the name of appearances. My days are filled with routine, but the nights?
That is another story. A flash of chrome, colorful characters, and no one knows my real name.
Almost no one.
Remington Vanderbilt is the bastard son. He is also one of my BFF's brothers. All reasons to be off-limits. But you know what they say. We want what we can't have.
Can I be brave? Can a rough around the edges man give me the challenge I crave and break the monotony of my world? As secrets start spilling into my life, only time will tell.
One thing's for sure, it's gonna be a wild ride."

"Mady" by S. I. Hayes & J. Haney

My Speculation:

I enjoyed "Mady" story featuring Madyson Harrington and Remington Vanderbilt. I felt sorry for Mady and was so glad he met Remy [who had skull rings, tattoos, and piercings], that cared for her. I loved it when Remy finally realized that just who Mady [Miss Breeze] was and that being a [tiny] dancer, a stripper who also loved street racing. By Remy being a photographer works well in this story. Each of these two characters had something in this story that was sad, and how they work it all out was great. Certainly, Madyson had mother issues, diet issues, and Remy being a Vanderbilt bastard child was quite an interesting read of how this story comes together. I loved how Remy tried to help Madyson with her eating disorder. The secondary character was all well developed and defined, giving the reader something extraordinary. The authors put together a story that will keep one's interest in turning the pages to see what is coming next. It was interesting when the bastard son learns about his family history dealing with Parkinson's Disease, and what comes out from all of that was quite interesting. It was great finally seeing Madyson's [Mads] mother getting what was coming to her with her messy, crazy self. By the end, the reader will be given a good story seeing these two falls in love and great seeing them getting there HEA was delightful.

You will have to pick up this good read to see what will happen when secrets come out of just who this prince was and why it was so important to him to find this item for his grandfather's eighth birthday. I enjoyed the story of this hot royal and an American girl who didn't particularly like all the glamour. Will they find their HEA? Well, to find out, you will have to pick up 'A Royal Second Chance Summer' to see how this author brings it all out to the reader.

My Thoughts....

Again this author knows how to give the readers one heck of a good hot erotic romantic read and yes with partners!  So if this isn't your kind of read...beware.  We find from the read that Meghan Keenan is visiting with her friend Jack Hawthorne [professional poker player] who lived in Vegas.  While Meghan has plans of having some fun by setting up her masseuse Tia Minh as a threesome, however she finds out that  their is a boyfriend Tony Sanders.  Now there will be a  challenge for Meghan in getting everyone together.  But was this to be as It seems like Tia has taken a liking to Jack.  How will all of this work out for Jack, Tia, Tony and even Meghan? Who will out play who as it seems like Tia has other plans?  In the end who will end up with who?  I know there are a lots of questions that need to be answered and I will stop here and say to get  all of these questions answered and more you will have to pick up "Vegas Gambler" to find out in this delightful 'playhouse' read.
