The Deceit of a Devil : An Enemies to Lovers Romance (The Boys of Clermont Bay Book 4) Kindle Edition
And now she loathed me just as much.
It didn’t matter that I betrayed her to save her.
Completely devastated and infuriated by my dishonesty, she had no intentions of ever trusting me again.
Her trust was shattered, her hate raging on with each second. She would never look at me the same again.
Our past was full of pain and lies that could never be forgotten.
I knew what I did was irreparable, but I refused to let her walk away without another chance.
I should have left things in the past.
I didn’t.
I couldn’t.
I won’t.
I needed her. Even if it cost me everything.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI could not wait for Carson and Allie’s forever and the conclusion to this second chance, enemies-to-lovers, romance duet exceeded my expectations. Carson and Allie will find their way. He’ll have to earn her forgiveness and her trust. She’ll have to show him that pushing her away is no longer an option. Body and soul, their love consumes. These two are straight up fire!
I just loved Carson. A bit broken and beaten down with family issues, this boy lashes out. Destructive behavior is his m.o. until Allie becomes his solace. The only problem is, while he was figuring out his feelings, his epic screw up finally pushed her away.
Allie knows he’s a temptation she can’t resist. He broke her heart not once, but twice. Too bad she’s a fool for him anyway, but he doesn’t need to know that. She’s not ready to just forgive him. For the first time in his life, Carson will have to earn her forgiveness and she won’t make it easy.
Swoon, heartache, intense passion will force you to read is one sitting. I loved this couple as well as their evolution. Carson finally makes his peace with his pain and lets love in. It’s a beautiful transformation. When that boy finally allowed himself to fall, he fell hard.
So many poignant moments and heated exchanges that added both depth and passion to their love story. I absolutely enjoyed every minute.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseSo, I had to take one star off because I’ve been feeling like this particular book in the series was rushed.
The first book’s ending felt a little premature and the backstory of their previous relationship was never elaborated on.
Carson even makes a comment in the first book about how only Allie and Lucas know the truth about his past, and I expected to hear that he was the guy she was on a date with, but nothing.
Also, how long ago was this? These characters are in the last year of high school, how old were they when doing that and when they fell out? How long have Beck, Olly, & Carson been best friends then that anything happened with Lucas.
I also felt like this meant we didn’t get the full emotional impact of the story with Carson’s mother.
AND if you keep including scenes of unprotected sex-I expect it to be addressed. Did she freak out and take plan B? A pregnancy test? Start birth control?
We all know these books are predominantly written and read by women-that scenario generally causes concern if not outright panic-so wtf happened?
Tangentially, the fact that “The End” is written directly before the Epilogue (both times now), really bothers me.
Otherwise, the story is very cute and I’m looking forward to the next set.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseCarson is a complex character whose inner thoughts hold him back. Allie is the one who helps him see he is more than he thinks
- Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis book was chalk full of every emotion you can imagine. I ugly cried, I got mad, I swooned so hard, you name it, I felt it! The conclusion to Carson and Allie’s romance was everything I hoped for and more.
This story picked up right where ‘The Taste of an Enemy’ left off and it was full steam ahead from page one until the very end. Carson has a lot of making up and groveling to do, and Allie doesn’t make it easy on him. Their push and pull was everything I needed and their chemistry… white freaking hot.
I really loved that we got to see an even more vulnerable side of Carson in this story. And on the flip side of that, an even stronger side of Allie. The angst in this one… ugh there are no words to describe how much I loved it! Now, let’s bring on Olly and Frankie!!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2021Format: KindleThis book was such a disappointment. I had such high hopes for it; I started with 5 stars because of how much I liked the previous book. This is the second and final book about Carson and Allie, childhood friends turned enemies. After the first book I was expecting them to really get to know each other again, to talk about everything and to reach a “healthy” relationship (considering they were the best of friends at some point it should have been easier). However, that never happens, instead this book is about them f*ing away the "hate". It was the same thing over and over again, s*e, thinking about s*x and not speaking to each other. I don’t know how people usually rate spice, but, in this book it was so frequent that I lost all interest for it. Also, there were the same lines over and over again. At some point I was so bored I wanted to just drop it. I consider Allie weak; it was enough for Carson to breath towards her and she would just melt. I never liked when everything is so hyperbolized in books “he was so hot I couldn’t stay away”. I looove that they are all Greek gods and goddesses, but it shouldn’t count as much. I know it’s a book about teenagers, and it should be fun and carefree, but, I just wanted some more substance.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseGood book. Really enjoyed Allie and Carson. Can’t wait to dive into the next duet and read about Frankie and Olly.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseOk this was my favorite one so far - I love him so much It hurts. They are my favorite couple. The spice was spicing and the story was storying and the love was loving UGH
- Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseCarson is my favorite! And Allie! Allie was I think the most relatable so far. I do feel like a lot of stuff gets left open ended. Like I’d like to know what happens to Carson and his dad’s relationship and I’m really hoping that the last book with Frankie and Olly really closes some questions. Like will Allie go away to school with Carson or will Carson stay? Also what about beck and Josie? From the sounds of it Josies dad will be on a war path to destroy Carson’s family and Carson’s dad being sick! Idk love the serious but desperately seeking answers! Will their be more on all of their futures?! I need more!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart breakingly good !!
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseOmg i was so excited to get book 2 of Carson and Allies story and it certainly did not disappoint !!
Holly has a way of making you fall in love with her characters, they have their flaws , Carsons are bigger than most but she manages to make you see past them and then you cant help but fall in love with the broken boy and the heartsick girl !!
I wanted to throw my kindle numerous times, to smack Carson so hard for the stuff he was doing and then in the next breath i wanted to hug him so hard and never let go
I thoroughly enjoyed this crazy ride and cant wait for the next book in this fabulous series ❤
- Alyssa JonesReviewed in Canada on October 13, 2021
4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing ending.
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI love that Carson and Allie worked everything out. I’m glad she didn’t let him go when everything happened with his mom. It was good to see history repeat itself but in the right way. I loved the epilogue. My only complaint was I wish we got to see more into the future.
- GemmaReviewed in the United Kingdom on September 24, 2021
5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI have loved Carson and Allie’s story so much. The cliffhanger ending of the last book made this one one of my most anticipated this year. So much happens to and between them and it’s fab to see the journey that Holly Renee takes you on.
Each character is built up and explored in a way that is sensitive and gripping in places. The storyline evolves and comes to a natural conclusion. Nothing is forced. I couldn’t put it down and stayed awake all night to finish it.
Highly recommended
