Strict Confidence

The Rochester Trilogy, Book #2

by Skye Warren

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

Skye Warrens’s dark romance retelling of the classic Jane Eyre continues in Strict Confidence, the second book of the trilogy.

We pick up with Jane Mendoza and Beau Rochester still dancing around the truth with each other, as they both try to keep this fledgling family unit they have created safe from seen and unseen dangers. They might of survived the last attack, but the uncertainty of who is threatening them and the secrets of the past unravelling around them puts Beau and Jane’s relationship at risk and even makes Jane consider going home and leaving her orphaned charge in order to stay safe.

Can Mr. Rochester keep his neice and her nanny safe? What good is untold riches if they can’t buy you security?

This second instalment of the Rochester Trilogy was filled with angst as Jane and Beau team up against a world of unknown adversaries. They don’t know what their motive is, but they do know that this mystery villain won’t stop until they are found.

All of this angst amps up Beau and Jane’s attraction to each other, and they come together in explosive ways. These two are on adrenaline and it shows!

In the end, we are left with one mother of a cliffhanger that has me very eager for the last book, Best Kept Secret that is expected in late August!

Strict Confidence by Skye Warren is expected to release June 15th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this ebook from Valentine PR. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
