Will Baker was a jerk.
A chiseled, green-eyed, hypnotizingly delicious jerk.
And like a bad penny, he just kept showing up.

Crashed my bike? There he was.
Flat tire? One more time.
And yet he thought I was the one stalking him.
Seriously. How paranoid do you have to be?

But the more I got know my intense new neighbor, the more his hard shell cracked, revealing a soulful man starved for affection.
A man whose secrets were eating him alive.
Just like mine.

He was broken. I was broken.
But together we seemed whole.
Maybe, just maybe, we could fix each other.
If our secrets didn't break us first.

Nicole French is a USA Today bestselling author of contemporary romance. She's also a hopeless romantic, low-key fashion addict, and total bookworm. When not writing, she is hanging out with her family, playing soccer with the rest of the thirty-plus crowd in Seattle, or going on dates with her husband. In her spare time, she likes to go running or practice the piano, but never seems to do either one of these things as much as she should.

Captures your heart

Reviewed in Australia on 4 October 2018

Discreet is one of those books you don't forget, the story and characters will stay with you long after you finish the final page. It captured my attention and my heart in a really special way.

The character development in this novel is top notch. I quickly became invested in these characters. The reader learns early on the secrets Will and Maggie are hiding, yet they slowly open to each other. Trust is not something that comes easily for these two. The emotions Maggie and Will are experiencing separately, and as a couple, grow along with the tension, frustration, lust and love.

I don't want to give away too much of the storyline, and reading an overview won't prepare you for all the feels you experience when reading this anyway. The flow and pace of Discreet is perfect for this genre. I enjoyed the depth of the story that the author was able to achieve.

I read Discreet in one sitting and the thought of having to wait for the second book in this duet, Indiscreet, is making me anxious. I want to see how this pair navigates the remainder of their journey. Luckily I don't have to wait too long, as book two is due for release in a few weeks.

Beautiful love story!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 February 2019

This book book reeled me in from the first chapter. It's a beautiful love story; a heartbreaking tale of two people, both struggling with their own demons and turbulent pasts. Maggie's history is revealed as the story progresses, but Will's past is a mystery. He is such a complex character, changing from gentle and loving to anger: from panic and fear back to gentle again. Despite, or maybe because of the many aspects of Will's tortured mood swings, he is a strong and charismatic romantic hero, flawed but likeable and the chemistry between Will and Maggie is electric!! K loved the book and the characters - Can't wait to read book 2.

NOT ONE FOR ME

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 September 2021

I did finish the book but I really didn't like Will. He was far too violent, intense and damaged for me. I have no interest in reading book 2 to find out if he can change. Won't read again so deleted from Kindle.

OMG! What just happened? I'm still in shock at the end. I love this book! Two damaged souls running from their pasts, while one opens up the other still keeps secrets hidden away. Is it to late for them now the truth has been leaked out. I found Maggie and Will were quite funny really. And the sexual tension from them was so hot it had my heart rate up. I'm left wondering how will their past define their future. To be honest I wasn't sure how I felt towards Will through most of the story but towards the end he made my heart hurt for him. He grows on you and makes you love him without realizing it. Lily (aka Maggie) is such a strong character and she is so strong inside with everything she has put up with dealing with a mother like hers. This story and the characters are so good. I enjoyed reading this so much and can't wait for it to continue. Highly recommend

Discreet - much more than a simple romance

Reviewed in the United States on 4 October 2018

4.5 stars

"And here I was, flickering like a live fire under the gaze of some weird mountain hermit with a sharp temper, crazy hair, and a beard like Gandalf."

After finishing this book I just thought I need some time to gather my mind for writing this review. Because my mind and my thoughts were all over the place. But now sitting here the day after, trying to get into words how Discreet made me feel: I still have no idea how to describe this properly.

"Sometimes you don't know you wanted something until you have it. Sometimes you don't know you need something until it's there."

Discreet is written only in Maggie's POV. I'm a total fan of dual POVs, so I missed Will's POV here. But Nicole did well in showing us Will through Maggie's eyes. And oh my god did I fall for him. Will is this special man with a mystic aura, who radiates a self confidence that keeps drawing you into his space like a magnet. Will is the chocolate to my craving for sweets. He's alpha where he needs to be and a lovingly caring on other occasions. He's a chosen loner on his own terms for his own reasons.

"He kissed me like I was the key to his survival. Or maybe like he was the key to mine."

Maggie is such a lovable character. But her whole live she got either limited to her parentage or to the boys/men she was together with. She never was really free or felt like she could be herself. Her dream to become a singer/songwriter got crashed through her horrible last relationship. No wonder she's pretty self-conscious and hides wherever she can. But she's different with Will, because he's different with her. Together they are better versions of themselves.

"I stared for a moment, feeling more than ever as if Will were some kind of wild animal, desperate to be tamed, but terrified of being trapped."

Maggie and Will hit it off right after their first encounter. It was quite obvious how affected they where by the other. Every of their encounters left me either smiling or panting. Their connection is something that just keeps your eyes glued to the pages. Even though we as reader know who Will really is and that s**t will hit the fan soon enough, it was great getting to know Will only through Maggie's POV.

"With Will, I was my purest song, a voice that sang much more than a simple melody."

I really enjoyed reading Discreet and again the author could show off her talent in writing perfect couples with fantastic harmony, created of wonderful words as well as easy lovable and unforgettable characters. Discreet captures your attention from the first page to the last with hot chemistry and great character development.
