Mini reviews: Facade; Spring Fling: A New Adult Anthology; Lead Me Not (Twisted Love #1); Like Clockwork: A Clare Hart Mystery

Façade (Games #2) by Nyrae Dawn New Adult contemporary romance paperback/eBook, 291 pages Published July 2nd 2013 by Forever My rating: 3.5 Secrets have a way of festering and increasing in size until something is made to happen. Two individuals living with secrets, each broken, meet and begin to fall in love. Adrian is tortured, Delaney is a nice girl trying to right past wrongs. The writing was good but there were moments when the language crossed the line into eye-rolling with its corny sentiments.  I enjoyed the story even when spots seemed to drag. The two main characters were likable but I couldn't fangirl over Adrian since I didn't learn a lot about him. What Delaney was doing was admirable and yet I wondered why she felt the need to do so much, especially when she wasn't responsible for some things. All in all, I liked the author's style and characters.  Spring Fling: A New Adult Anthology by Julia Kent, Sara Fawkes, Lauren Hawkeye, C...
