Fool Me Twice is the brand new release from Lizzie Morton, and reader friends, go grab this book now. Especially if you enjoy a good romantic suspense.
Britney currently works as a writer at a gossip magazine in New York. It's not her ideal job, but it pays the bills. One day at work, her boss calls her and a fellow coworker into her office to assign them a story. Michael Becket is rumored to have ended his relationship, and she wants all the info. If the rumors are not true, then she wants Britney and her coworker to make some gossip happen. This leads to Britney being on an airplane that is headed to Florida. Who does she sit next to? Michael Becket. Naturally. The two share a conversation, go through some turbulence on the plane, and there is definitely some chemistry between the two. Things happen, Becket finds out who Britney truly is, and he wants revenge for what happened. Flash forward a bit, and a plan is hatched. Britney will come back to Florida, and write a story on who the real Michael Becket is. But He's not going to make it easy on her. If anything he'll string her along. But while all that is happening, someone from Becket's past is coming back into his life. And this someone is not a good person. Becket is starting to wonder if he's truly seeing what he is, or if it's just a figment of his imagination. He knows he should mention something to Britney, but she's seeing things too, and she thinks it is someone from her past coming to get her. So who is this person? What is going to happen? And what's up with the cell phone that Michael has that only has a couple phone numbers stored in it?
As I started reading Fool Me Twice, I was expecting a sweet but steamy sports romance. And that is not what happened. Yes there was steam. But I wasn't expecting the suspense! I wasn't expecting the hate to love story that was unfolding. Add in the forced proximity, and I was hooked. Yes the story between Brit and Becket was interesting, but it was really the suspense part that had me unable to put the book down. Who was that person that both Becket and Britney kept seeing? What is the reason for them being there? Why do they keep hanging around? I needed the backstory on that. Of course Lizzie Morton did not disappoint, and she filled me in perfectly. When the story wrapped up, I felt like I knew who Becket was, the relationship between him and Britney was good, and I was content. Sort of. Or at least until the epilogue when Josie was leaving work. I need Josie's book NOW. Seriously. Oh my word. I can only hope that things wrap up "nicely" in Josie's book.
I do have one question though, and that involves Britney's coworker and former boss. Whatever happened to them? Was there repercussions? Were they ever called out for their part in the initial story?

Highly recommend reading Fool Me Twice. I do suggest starting with the prequel, Fool Me Once, but that isn't 100% necessary. Go download this book. Read it. Come back and talk to me about it.
Thank you for taking time to read my thoughts,

Becket:
If you hated me and if you hated my story… good.
Becket is my mask.
One I’ve kept firmly in place and with good reason. Only one person saw a glimmer of the real me, and she reminded me why we build walls: to keep things out.
The night we met was a farce, a real-life version of The Hangover and all thanks to her. But now, I’m determined to bulldoze my way into her life like she did mine.
It’s time she learnt a lesson; you should never judge a book by its cover. And my story is more complicated than she could ever imagine.
Britney:
Our romance was a plane crash. A disaster. It ended as quickly as it began.
I thought I'd meet my dream guy one day. The one that would sweep me off my feet, whispering sweet nothings in my ear while I ran my hands over his beautiful, chiseled body.
Instead, Michael Becket, the biggest douchebag in the NFL, is the one who's firmly imprinted himself in my mind.
I'm learning not everyone we fall for is Prince Charming. People have flaws, people have secrets, and I shouted his out for the world to hear. And now ... he's determined to find out mine.
