The Naked Truth by Vi Keeland: Layla is done with picking the wrong guy. She’s content in a new relationship with another lawyer from her firm. When she’s not working all the hours of the day, she spends time with her best friend and goddaughter. With all the billable hours, she’s starting to get back into the good graces of the senior partners.

She couldn’t be more surprised when she’s asked to do a client presentation, until she meets the client. Gray made quite the impression when they were together and it was a challenge for her to move on, so he is just about the last person she expected or wants to see. Layla and Gray quickly bonded when they first met, despite the unique circumstances. Their intense chemistry pulled them together and their many conversations further cemented their bond, until Layla was devastated to learn he lied to her.

“It doesn’t matter.” I wave my hand back and forth between the two of us. “We’re not going to happen.”
A slow smile stretched across his handsome face. “Yes, we are. You can fight it all you want.”

Gray is sexy, charming, charismatic, and a really good man despite some of the mistakes he’s made. He’s looking for a fresh start, and that includes a second chance with the one woman who burrowed under his skin from the start. Gray is on a mission to earn Layla’s trust and win her over despite the many obstacles in his way. He’s determined, persistent, and very stubborn. Layla can only ignore or try to fight their connection for so long. Trying to win back and then keep Layla is harder than Gray imagined.

“We need to talk, sweetheart,” I said.
“I agree. So why don’t you answer your home phone already?”
I was thoroughly confused for a few heartbeats. “How do you know my…”
“Because I’m standing downstairs, waiting for you to tell your nice doorman to allow me to come up.”

The Naked Truth is an entertaining, steamy, and engaging second chance romance. I loved the really creative backstories and characters that Vi Keeland developed for this unique spin on one of my favorite tropes. Ms. Keeland provided a great story with plenty of surprises and a really fun cast of characters in their friends and family. Fans of Katie Ashley, Emma Chase, and Penelope Ward will enjoy The Naked Truth.

Publication: Expected publication: July 23rd 2018 | Vi Keeland |

From #1 New York Times Bestseller Vi Keeland, comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

It was just a typical Monday.

Until the big boss asked me to make the pitch for a prospective new client.

After two years on shaky ground at work because of my screw up, an opportunity to impress the senior partners was just what I needed.

Or so I thought…

Until I walked into the conference room and collided with the man I was supposed to pitch.

My coffee spilled, my files tumbled to the ground, and I almost lost my balance.

And that was the good part of my day.

Because the gorgeous man crouched down and looking at me like he wanted to eat me alive, was none other than my ex, Gray Westbrook.

A man who I’d only just begun to move on from.

A man who my heart despised—yet my body obviously still had other ideas about.

A man who was as charismatic and confident as he was sexy.

Somehow, I managed to make it through my presentation ignoring his intense stare.

Although it was impossible to ignore all the dirty things he whispered into my ear right after I was done.

But there was no way I was giving him another chance, especially now that he was a client
…was there?
