Release Blitz
Title ~ Enough Secrets: Lies.Lust.Deceit
Author ~ Alexis Riddley
Genre ~ Dark Erotic Thriller
What if everything you had come to know about your life was a lie, complete and total fiction? Charlotte West had everything she ever wanted: The house, the status and the perfect husband in Winston. But that’s the trouble with appearances; they can be deceiving. Charlotte’s life had become a tangled web of ecstasy, rules, punishment and unparalleled pleasure at the hands of Winston, and his business partner, Aiden.
Charlotte never expected Winston was harboring secrets deeper than her own. She was clan-destined to lock more away into her vault of lies in order to portray the flawless illusion that the outside world has come to expect.
On an ordinary day of no significance, Charlotte made a conscious decision to let go of the chains that were binding her together and prepared to unleash the carnage that was her soul onto the world. She no longer felt the need to please Winston, nor Aiden. She was prepared to deal with her decision. For the first time, she was going to be true to herself, and she was terrified.
But when the cover is pulled back and decades of lies, lust and deceit are exposed; the question is, who would Charlotte be when everything was exposed? Would she come out on the other side as she had hoped, would years of walking the razors edge leave her broken; or was she lost forever?

When Alexis Riddley asked if I would be interested in reading her debut novel, I had no idea what to expect. What I discovered was a beautifully written dark erotica full of twist and turns that kept me glued to the pages from start to finish.
This story absolutely blew me away. There are not enough words to express to Alexis how much I loved this story. The rambling commentary I blew her IMs up with was just the tip of the iceberg. Talk about a book hangover.
There were so many twist and turns throughout this story to keep my mind swirling with what if possibilities. My heart would be hurting for one person in one chapter and in the next chapter; I would be glaring at them. Alexis kept me enthralled from start to finish.
The emotion Alexis was able to pull from me was intense. I was petrified for Charlotte West when she pulled up at home and did not want to pull inside her garage. My mind was running so many ‘Oh my god! What does this evil man do to her’ scenarios that I was on pins and needles myself. Then the more I read the more I had had to know what went down.
Charlotte ‘Charlie’ West did not see herself as brave, beautiful, or even in the same league as her husband Winston West. To her he was her salvation to survive. As much as she wanted to hate him, she needed him to live. In reality she was extremely strong, absolutely stunning, and could bring many men to their knees.
I absolutely loved Charlotte’s character. She kept the story flowing and the reader on the edge of their seat as she told her story. She was witty, business smart, and she knew what she wanted and what she would have to do to keep it.
Winston West in my eyes was a monster for most of the book. He was a gorgeous, arrogant, pompous, monster! I swear to you I wanted to crawl in this book and wring his neck on numerous occasions. Every time he did something I would mumble, you (beep)!
Then all of the sudden I wanted to wrap this man up in my arms and hug him tight. You know the line ‘Never judge a book by its cover?’ That was Winston. I had judged him, convicted him, and threw away the key. By the end of this story, I was asking for his forgiveness.
Winston is one sexy misunderstood man. Everything this man does he does it out of love. He loved Charlie more than she could ever imagine. Why do men keep that crap all bottled up?! Tell us for Pete’s sake!
“Okay, okay, but when we get home, I promise you I am going to lick every fucking inch of this body, only after I have tied you to my fucking bed. Baby, you are not going to be able to walk for days when I am done with you. Now hurry up,” no bullshit Winston was back, and I loved it.
Then we had Aiden Ellis, this gorgeous man was broken on so many levels. All he wanted was to be loved. He would take it any way he could get it. He heated up the pages with Charlie and Winston. This trio tried to find a balance for their twisted love affair.
The way Alexis described Aiden had me wanting to climb in the book and lick this sexy man from head to toe.
Aiden would protect Charlie from Winston when she needed him to. The lover she never knew she was missing until he joined them. Charlie and Aiden’s bond was strong. She needed him in ways she did not realize.
Aiden had so many secrets that when they all came to a head, it left my mouth gaping open. I am sure someone needed to close it. Seriously, just wow! It takes a lot to surprise me and leave me speechless and Alexis did twice towards the end of this book.
I am telling you right now people. This book is HOT!! Like smokin’ hot! The delicious things that go down in this book are just yummy! Charlotte, Winston, and Aiden are one hot twisted trio!
I cannot wait to see what else Alexis Riddley has in store for us! You had better start stalking this author now!
