Review by: Michelle

When Brooke messaged asking me for a favor, I was wondering what it could be. Little did I know, her favor was asking me if I could read and give her honest feedback on her upcoming book, The Intern Volume 2 before she sends out the ARCs. Umm..Brooke you didn’t have to ask if I wanted to read the book because my answer was a BIG FAT YES!!! Literally, my reading plans changed and I had to read this book ASAP and thats what I did when The Intern Vol. 2 appeared on my kindle. Let’s just say I may have squealed in delight when I got my hands on Bentley.

Pardon my language but Holy Shit… The Intern Vol. 2 was FUCKING HOT!! If I thought the first volume was sexy, let me tell you Brooke went beyond my expectations in this installment. Volume 2 was filled with so much suspense and lots of steamy drop-your-panty kind of hot sex.

If you were like me, I had to know what will happen to Ceci when Bentley discovered she was hiding under his desk. How will Ceci manage to get out of her predicament ? Well lets just say Brooke Cumberland took her readers on to a whole ride of hotness. The chemistry between Ceci and Bentley was like a blazing inferno. It was hot, raw, primal and intense. The strong connection between these two is so palpable that you were on the edge of your seats waiting for Ceci’s secrets to be unraveled. The more time they spent with each other, Bentley warns Ceci that he doesn’t give his heart so easily and constantly ask her for the truth. With lingering suspicions of Ceci, will Bentley be able to fuck the truth out of her? Or will Ceci’s lies finally catch up to her?

Ahhh… Brooke Cumberland does it again with another shocking ending!!! Why must you torture your readers like that? HAHA. What can I say but I loved The Intern Volume 2. It was one hot, steamy suspenseful quick read. I loved that we got to see a whole new side to Bentley. He was the total alpha sexy domineering hero. And I can’t get enough of him. I wanted more Bentley!!! I can’t wait to see what Ms.Cumberland has in store for Bentley and Ceci in the third volume. All I can ask of her, is to please hurry and finish it soon. I am dying to know what happens next. <3

5 Suspenseful Stars!
ARC received from the author for an honest review

After getting to that scene, all that’s been playing on my mind is the thought that: “Damn! Why did I not pursue gymnastics when I was younger?!”

Volume 2 starts where Volume 1 ended. You know, that cliffhanger at the end where we all probably went “Oh shit! She’s going to get caught!” ? Yes, that one.

Bentley walked in on her hiding but didn’t let on and pretended he didn’t. But now, he’s starting to have doubts and I like how Brooke made him into someone who doesn’t shake off his concerns, his questions. He was not dumb and although his doubts are just doubts, he trust himself to go with his feelings and start asking questions and acting on it. It’s like he doesn’t let himself be fooled. He wants to. He wants to believe that Ceci is being honest and that she’s not hiding anything from him. But he’s cautious and wary too. And I kind of love that about him. Makes him even hotter in my eyes.

Ceci is starting feel guilty about what she’s doing. She’s starting to have deeper feelings and emotional involvement to Bentley that she’s having second-thoughts about hurting him and compromising Bentley and his father’s company with what she’s been doing. However, no matter how much she feels that what shes doing is oh so wrong, she can’t let go and stop searching for answers about that tragedy that happened years ago. She needs answers and she needs to get it. Ceci is one of the most confident, scarily deceiving yet vulnerable heroine I’ve ever read. How she’s brave and determined to seek and get the justice she wants is admirable, and although how she went about it isn’t the ideal way, I admire the fierceness in her to really pull the deception off.

That’s also to say that she’s fierce when it comes to her relationships with other people, her family and her best friends, and now… with Bentley. What they have started as physical attraction, it’s intense. Combustible. And Brooke made me want to be a gymnast! Have I mentioned that yet? Because really, this is kinkier and waaaaaaay panty-dropping than Volume 1. Volume 1 has nothing on Volume 2 Bentley. For reals. Now, don’t go thinking that this is all sex and no development whatsoever in the story. The sex for me is enough. It was not too much to make me sick of it, and not too few that I want more. But. But with how extremely hot those scenes are, it feels like it’s 2 chapters long when really it was not.

Brooke Cumberland wrote the second volume of Ceci and Bentley’s story with the right amount of suspense to keep me on the edge of my seat and the perfect drizzle of sex scenes all throughout the book to keep the steam going.

If you loved these bunnies from the first volume then you'll love them even more on the second volume.

Ceci ended up in Bently's office almost getting caught from being nosy. Bently is starting to grow some feelings for Ceci. But she isn't here to fall for anyone, she is on a mission and falling isn't an option. She wants him bad but she needs to know what happened to her father. In order to do that she needs to fight this feeling she is starting to develop.

Bently is getting suspicious. He knows that Ceci is hiding something. He's given her a few chances to come clean, but Ceci just won't budge. He warned her that he doesn't just give his heart so easily to anyone.

Oh my god, does can this get any hotter? I thought Intern 1 was hot, but oh my, these two just got super nova in Intern 2. Will Ceci quit her mission? Will Bentley forgive Ceci when he finds out that this has been all but a scheme for her? I hate CLIFFHANGERS!!! Brooke please give me volume 3 like NOW?

I love Intern 2, as much as the first one. Bentley and Ceci gets sexier by the minute. The sex gets hotter everytime, there is no time when these two are together that sparks doesn't fly or shall I say underwear (lol). Brooke keeps everything hot and heavy between them with every scene that they are together. The more I read this series, the more I am in love with Bentley. He is a super sexy and very hot alpha male.

In this 2nd volume, things between Bentley and Ceci are starting to take a serious turn. Both are trying their hardest not to let each other in deeply, but both are failing. Bentley cannot help but feel lost when Ceci is not around and Ceci is fighting the same battle. Bentley tries his hardest to break Ceci to tell him the truth, while Ceci promises that everything she tells him is the truth and that no matter what he does she won't break.

This book, of course ends with a major cliffhanger.

I cannot wait for Volume 3 the Conclusion of it all to come out, so I can read it quick. Just like the first one, I am on a major book hang over. Thanks Brooke for another Super Sexy book. I love it! <3
