ReRead 2019-Once I realized Matthias’ story was out I figured I’d start over because it’s been a while since I read the series! There are so many little things I’d forgotten, but it’s just as good the second time around!*********I loved Noah's broodiness and Lucia's sassy innocence. Their chemistry was well balanced, with some push/pull happening, but the build up was worth it..plenty of sizzle and spark! I really got a kick out of the supporting characters; the humor and jokes, sometimes at Noa...

Shame Shamelessby Nana Malone, M. Malone ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Phenomenal read that I absolutely adored reading. OMG! I'm absolutely adored reading this! I have fallen in love with Nana Malone writing, if you have ever read any of her books you know that her books are phenomenal, they pull at your heart and pull you right in her stories. Each book just gets better and better then one before it. Shameless is a Trilogy and this is the first book it's absolutely amazing, it's well written and I can't wait to read t...

Review by: Jennifer(3.5 stars)Noah spends most of his life protecting Lucia, pretty much from herself and her would be dates, but he protects her none the less. He doesn't feel that she needs to know all that he does for her, and treats her like a little sister, at least that's what he tells himself. Taking on the protector roll since Lucia's brother died just seemed like the right thing, but as much as he tries to keep his feelings to himself, the harder it gets. Lucia is in love with Noah, but...

"Keeping secrets isn't always for the sake of others. In fact, is a dangerous decision to make. Shameless is witty, sexy, super hot, and totally... dangerous. Enjoy!!!"Smart ass, independent woman: check!Tall, brutally hot and infuriating control freek of a man: check!Story to intrigue​ your attention and fulfill your imagination: hell check!!!Do I have to continue reviewing? After all, we are talking about Nana Malone over here. The woman knows women better than they think for themselves.Lucia

I seriously HATE cliffhangers, but this first book in the series has me rethinking that feeling. This is one sexy, romantic suspense, mystery with an edge of danger that leaves you hanging on the edge of your seat.There is so much going on, but the way this duo writing team have woven the pieces together is artistic. Noah's past, Rafe's past, and Nana's mystery. You know they are tied together, and you are left frustrated trying to figure out the when, where, who, what, why and how.I do have to

3.5 StarsUnder the heading of impossible reviews to write, there is this one.Spoilers are all over the place, and I am not even sure how to avoid them. Noah and Lucia were interesting, which is the most important part of any romance between a couple of people you meet on the pages of a book.Noah is the head of a security firm, with the past life as an assassin. And, this is not something Lucia knows, or more importantly it is not something that she understands fully, as she is sheltered and a li...

This was a great collaborative effort by authors, Minx Malone and Nana Malone! What a thrilling and memorable start! What I really most enjoyed in "Shameless"was the funny banter between the characters --- primary and secondary ones. Lucia and Noah had a strong connection but both were fighting it so it's best to call it what it was ... 'a slow burn' because of their relationship (quasi sister/brother), friendship, and this love/ lust thingy going on. H/h were both flawed characters but Noah mor...

This book… Gave me everything I wanted in both authors. The angst <- (I don’t like this word but I have to use it.) The sexy, the raw talent of both writers, and the shameless manner of all characters. I want more. Not now, like right now.Noah is intense right down to his core. If there was ever a man that could deal with Lucia, it is him. Their chemistry draws from each other, just light a moth to a flame. I love the intensity of the story, it’s the right amount of oomph <- (google it, it is a

This is the first book of the series and oh my it BLEW me away! It wasn't what I expected for a Dark Romance...it was better and ADDICTIVE! Stellar writing will have you hooked from Chapter 1 and the cliffhanger at the end will for sure have you waiting breathlessly for the Second book in the series! Great character development and amazing writing will completely enrapture you! The inner dialogues are priceless and well descriptive scenes will make you feel as if you are right there along with t...

Shameless is book one in a trilogy, and for the first book in a new trilogy, it is full of energy, zest, heat and humor. Lucia lost her brother six years ago and ever since, she has been looking for answers. When she finds a possible lead, she thinks she may finally have closure. Well, she would be closer to closure if her brother’s best friend and her own personal annoyance, Noah Blake, keeps getting in her personal business.Noah promised Lucia’s brother that he would always watch over her and

This cover is OK. A little generic in my opinion but I can picture the model as Noah. It's got good composition and unique title work as well. This review is going to be a little short because I am moving onto book two. I enjoyed this one. The author has an easy writing style that flowed well and kept me turning the pages. The plot was interesting and quite amusing at times. Both characters were very likable although the whole push/pull thing Noah had going on frustrated me. There were also an

Wow!! M. Malone and Nana Malone knocked me off my feet with this one. These two are a writing powerhouse duo!! What a story these two lovely ladies have crafted with Shameless. The saddest part is that when the book finished I didn't have book 2 already in my possession. I could not put this book down once I started reading it. Noah and Lucia are a force to be reckoned with. These two cracked me up. You want to talk about fighting one's attraction to the other, and not doing a very good job at i...

Shameless is an edge of your seat kind of book. Lucia lost her adored big brother Rafe to violence and blocked out the trauma of his murder. Noah was Rafe's best friend and protege. He lost Rafe, but vowed to protect Lucia. He is determined to keep her safe no matter what. He takes overprotective to a whole new level. Rafe and Lucia have spent years telling themselves that they have a brother-sister relationship; that he is a stand-in for Rafe. The truth is that both stopped thinking of the othe...

Too much repetition, clichés and controlling man dialoge. It's funny because I used to read and enjoy many books with similar undertones but the older I get the less I can stand the man being this alpha controlling freak. I tried to like Noah but we don't actually know anything about him. At the very beginning Noah breaks into “her” apartment (I say “her” because he’s actually paying the majority of the rent without her knowing) while she is on a date. His reasoning behind it is that she’s misbe...

NOOOO! How could it end there??? Just as it was getting juicy!!But, I'm doing this the wrong way round. Let me start again.This was, for me at least, a one sitting devouring of this book. I was drawn into the story by the plot, but the thing that kept me hooked throughout was the characters. This tale was a well balanced mix of humour, suspense, romance and action. Each element completely necessary to make the book work overall. And I'm not just talking about the main characters either - the sup...

I think the author must have an advanced degree in chemistry, because the tension and attraction between Noah and Lucia is beyond hot! I think the sheets on the bed went up in flames just from their kissing in the living room! Seriously hot scenes, not just the intimate scenes themselves, but the underlying current of electricity is pulsating with every interaction between the two. This author has a real gift for creating that intense attraction and keeping it simmering throughout the entire boo...

Holy freakin moley. I realize this is a cliffhanger but dang is it the best kind. I loved the big reveal at the end of this book. I thought we would have to wait until book 3 to know the big secret. I loved the scene with the sex toy. I have never laughed so hard but I could totally see this happening in real life. So where is book 2 going to take us? Noah revealed a number of secrets at the end. Will we find out what's really going on with Nonna ? Will we find out what Matthias' issue is and if...
