DISCOVERY (Esquire Black Duet Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Hayley Faiman (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 168 ratings
Lucas Black, Esquire.
The name alone was an enigma.
Dressed in a suit that cost more than my rent.
Green eyes that danced and a cocky smile firmly planted on kissable lips.
The rumors about him were true.
I wasn’t ready for all that was Lucas Black. I knew it. I didn’t care.
I was willing to take whatever he gave me.

    Lucas is an Alpha male and a first class jerk but you just can't help hoping that he gets this right. Then we have the beautiful Amazon small size Brooklyn that men can't keep their eyes off who we automatically love.

    Lucas has a hard time getting Brooklyn falling for his charm she wants him to show her something different. He tries with all his power to because there is something special about Brooklyn. He is thinking about the future and it’s scaring him because he is the biggest playboy that has been wounded so deeply.

    This is a great book that is gritty when you read Lucas POV and Brooklyn is questioning every move that she makes.

    These two chemistry are off the chart. Also the characters are great and well developed. The dialogue flows very well.

    This is a cliffhanger and the author definitely knows how to end part one making us feening for part two.

    Holy hell!!! What can I say... This book is just everything. I can not even put into words how much I enjoyed this one and am impatiently waiting for the conclusion. I want to add so much to this review, but I refuse to because I don't want to spoil anything! I'm afraid once I start talking about Lucas and Brooklyn in gonna spill the beans about how these 2souls are perfect for each other. Now if 1 arrogant ass and a sweet sassy heroine could fall in line I would be 1 happy girl. Please, please, please read This book I promise you will not be disappointed.

    This book was absolutely amazing. It was the perfect start to what is seemingly to become a great duet. Lucy's Black is the rich and handsome Attorney who has met the new young Brooklyn. These two have the best chemistry and the sex scenes are awesome. I can wait for part two. This is a must read. Great book.

    4.0 out of 5 stars 3.5 star - 'Discovery' by Hayley Faiman
    Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2019
    Discovery by Hayley Faiman is the first book to the Esquire Black Duet and was the first book I read by Hayley Faiman.

    I plan on reading the second book to the Duet since Hayley left readers with a cliffhanger from the first book. Now, if I only can get over how much I don’t like the male character. Forewarning ahead of time that the male protagonist, Lucas Black, is a player and jerk. I didn’t like his role in this book and wanted the heroine, Brooklyn, to realize what he was from the beginning finally. She figured it out though towards the end of the book. She didn’t make it easy for Lucas though to pursue her at first. Brooklyn was his first that turned him down, and he never gets turned down.

    Lucas is a family lawyer, and he ends up hooking with his clients after he’s down with their court cases. He’s a ladies man, and he doesn’t do relationships. Until he comes across Brooklyn, who is the Child Advocacy Lawyer on his client’s case, he wants Brooklyn, but she doesn’t want to be another notch on his bedpost. Unfortunately, Brooklyn ends up having a stalker that has it out for her. Lucas becomes her savior and helps her. He wants to protect her, but he also wants to pursue her. There is a lot of back and forth between the characters and Brooklyn becomes a damsel in distress in the book, but she’s trying to handle it the best she can, especially since she’s never had an enemy. She usually has her friend there to talk her out of being with Lucas and also being there for her. She’s not there though since she’s away. I wanted Brooklyn to have someone there for her since she not only deals with a crazy person after her, but she also has a scum of a boss that won’t leave her alone. She’s a beautiful woman that is trying to do her job until she can get a better job. She’s there is help the children in the middle of divorces.

    Now, if you enjoy books that involve a male character that is a player and a damsel in distress female character, then this book is for you. I may have not love this book, but I did enjoy the suspense in the book. I wanted to figure out who was behind the flowers and notes to Brooklyn. She’s a sweet woman who shouldn’t have any enemies. She’s caught in the crossfire of something else. There’s also the very ending of this book that left me realizing that Lucas Black will not be my favorite male character unless Hayley turns his character around in the second book. Although there was his POV in the book, it still did not win me over in his case. He may change, though, so I’ll see what happens in the second book. I’m thinking Brooklyn is changing Lucas for the better. It will take some time, though since the ending left me hanging.

    Overall, this book gets 3.5 stars (3.75 more likely since the storyline is what kept me intrigued and not the relationship of the characters).

    Story Rating: 3.5 stars
    Steaminess Rating: 3.5 stars
    Standalone or part of series: Part of a duet, so must be read in order.

    I didn't like Lucas at all, to be honest I didn't think much of Brooklyn either. Lucas was an arrogant so and so, and Brooklyn a wet blanket who needed to walk away sooner. The one good thing that saved this book was the suspense in it.
