ABOUT A WICKED SONG
Kace August: famous, intense, dark, addictive. Aria Alard: a woman with secrets, passion, and a dangerous past. 

Passion. Secrets. Mystery. Aria fell hard for Kace. She trusted him. But did he deserve that trust? And where is Gio?

A Wicked Song is the second book in the Brilliance Trilogy.

“I want you,” he says. “Just you.”

“How do I know that?”

A low, frustrated sound escapes his lips and he drops the medication bag, and spikes fingers into my hair, a low curse escaping his lips. His eyes meet mine, and the depth of the emotion he then spikes in me steals my breath. Before I can catch it again, he’s breathing for me. His mouth slants over my mouth, his tongue licking a wicked, seductive note against my tongue. And despite my injured hand and my burdened heart, I melt the way I always melt for this man. I melt and I moan, and when he tears his mouth from mine, I am panting.

“That is how you know,” he declares. “We are connected, you and me. We both feel it.”

“All that says is that I want you and that I have the potential to be foolish because of that desire, but I won’t live up to that potential, Kace.”

“How do I know you aren’t after my money?”

I blanch. “Because I’m not. You know I’m not.”

“Can you prove it?”

“You know I’m not,” I repeat.

His hands come down on my shoulders and he pulls back to look at me as he says, “I do know you, but that still requires me trusting you and I’ve had plenty of reasons in my life not to offer you that trust. Reasons you don’t know. Many reasons, Aria. Many betrayals. But I give you my trust anyway. I’m not after the formula, but all I have to offer is my word. You have to decide if you trust me.”

My hand settles on his chest, and his heart beats a rowdy song beneath my palm. “I’m very confused right now,” I confess, and it’s as honest as I have ever been with him or me. “And my head is spinning.”

His hand covers my hand on his chest. “Then let me take care of you. Let me take you home.”

There is a library filled with books the size of all the reasons I should say no, but even as I have that thought, he says, “Don’t say no.”

Words he’s said to me every moment of indecision I’ve ever shared with him. And right or wrong, like every time before, I don’t say no. I say, “Yes.”

My Review
5 Stars
A Wicked Song by Lisa Renee Jones is book Two in the Brilliance Trilogy.  This continues the story of f Aria Alard and Kace August, so you really need to read the first book 'A Reckless Note' before starting this one..but Ms. Jones is good about catching you up if you haven't read the previous one.  This book picks us up where we left off so it doesn't miss a beat getting us back into their story.  Secrets are starting to come out from the shadows.  Aria and Kace feelings are growing stronger and their path is becoming clearer until something else happens in their story leaving us to get read for their next installment to come.  I am a big fan of this author's writing, so I do highly recommend it and this series.
