Easy Virtue by Mia Asher

I was excited to read Easy Virtue and its follow up Sweetest Venom by Mia Asher. Honestly this book started very slowly for me. I was lost and trying to find the themes that were coming through. Give it a chance though because after the first 10 chapters you really start to see who the main character Blaire is. She is a young women who is so afraid of love that she becomes a gold digger, believing that the only thing that's important is money. This terribly neglected girl found her feet and left home as soon as she turned 18, and never looked back. One night she meets Lawrence, a multi millionaire in NYC. The same night she meets Ronan a poor photographer from Brooklyn. So the book forms this weird triangle but so much of the book was more about Blaire and who she really wanted to be. 

The story continues in Sweetest Venom.

Sweetest Venom by Mia Asher Book 2 in the Virtue Series

Sweetest Venom is the second book in the Virtue Series by Mia Asher. It is a continuation from Easy Virtue. If you haven't read the first book, stop 🚦and read it first! 

In Sweetest Venom, Blaire is trying to figure out who she truely loves. The story picks up where Book one left off. We see how different Ronan is as well as how much he has changed due to his heartache. He has become a man who is trying to forget even for a minute with his newest hookup Rachel. Rachel is an older divorcee who wants to help Ronan break into the art world. We see that Ronan has just as many demons as Blaire does. This story is about them figuring out things before they can be together. Blaire is also in a process of learning who she wants to be. 

" Love can be many things. Cruel. Exhilarating. Deceitful. Jealous. Hateful. But at its purest form love can be redeeming- forgiving."

I truely enjoyed both books, and really loved the prospective of fighting oneself before they could be together.
