“All the sin, heat, and dirty underbelly that comes with it. I'm dying to read Under the Stars!” –Nora Flite, USA Today bestselling author

Under The Lights
Heroes don’t last long around here…
Fall in love with the sexiest girl in New Orleans?
Check.
Prepare to die for her?
Double-check.
Larissa is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.
She’s the rising star of the Pussycat Angels, the hottest burlesque show in the French Quarter.
I’ll never forget the first time I saw her.
The curve of her breast outlined by sparkling rhinestones.
Slim hips wrapped in black fishnets.
Long, dark hair…
She’s the Dark Angel who stole my heart.
Her body is intoxicating, our love overwhelming.
Cat eyes and blood red lips.
Sizzling fingers on white-hot skin.
I couldn’t keep my hands off her…
But her fame had a dark side,
A sinister shadow lurking under the lights.
I would do anything to save her…
He would do anything to see me dead.
Excerpt:
“You’re so good.” Her voice is soft, and she traces her finger along the bandage before lifting her blue eyes to meet mine. “Thank you for buying me lunch. For saving me…” Without warning, she steps forward and wraps her arms around my waist, pressing her face against my chest, and I don’t hold back. She fits perfectly in my arms, and I inhale the sweet scent of her hair just before I press my lips to the top of her head. Her voice is muffled against my shirt. “It feels so safe here.” “Lara,” I whisper in her hair. “I want to keep you safe.” She pulls back, and I loosen my hold. But she doesn’t leave. She puts her hand against my cheek, lifting her chin as she rises higher on her toes. Hell if I make her work for it. Leaning forward, I capture her lips. They part, and our tongues meet, curling together as I hug her closer to me. She exhales a little noise, and her fingers thread in the sides of my hair. I trace a line with my lips to her ear. “I want you so much,” I whisper. She turns, searching for my mouth, and I kiss her. She fists my shirt in her hands, pulling it up and placing her palm against my bare stomach. I groan deeply, and my hands slide under her ass. I lift her against my chest, and her legs go around my waist. Our kisses are wildfire, fast-moving, lips pulling, hungry for something more. Something just within reach. She moving subtly against my waist, and the blood rushes downward. I’m hard and she’s riding me, stroking my erection with her crotch. “Lara,” I groan. Her lips still, and she holds my cheeks, looking into my eyes. “That night on the catwalk… The way you looked at me…” My brow collapses at the memory. “You’re the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.” “I only want you to see me.” Her lips are pink and swollen from my kisses. I lean forward and kiss her again, tasting her like she’s water in the desert. She exhales a little noise, and it’s a charge straight to my cock. I love her lips. I love her mouth. I want more. I want all of her. “Does your waist hurt?” She leans forward, running her nose along my jaw. “Nothing hurts. Everything is amazing.”

4 Stars
I am familiar with Tia Louise and love her books. This one took it to a whole new level! Both Lara and Mark find themselves stuck in a life they wouldn’t choose and are struggling to find a way out. In all of that they find each other. New Orleans was the perfect setting for this dark tragic romance. From the dark corners to the secret passageways, it certainly gives the feeling of hopelessness and never ending tragedy in the lives of the characters.
Leaving us with a cliffhanger, I cannot wait to see if Lara, Mark and even Molly find a better life.

4.5 star Review Under The Lights (Bright Lights Duet #1) by Tia Louise
This is book one in the Bright Lights Duet and what a story. Although a little slow for my taste initially, it soon took off and had me had me engrossed. Thankfully it is not a long wait until the second book in this duet as the book ended with a lot of questions and a cliff hanger..
I love romantic suspense and this is a good example. Ms.Louise has woven a tale, of danger, mystery, suspense and intrigue in such a way as to keep the reader invested from the start.
This is a vastly different book from what I have come to expect from Tia Louise and although darker it is extremely well written and the characters interesting. The chemistry between Mark and Larissa(Lara) was scorching at times; the characters seemed so real.
I anxiously await the release of book 2, Under The Stars to see where Tia Louise takes the story.
4.5 Stars for Under The Lights which is book one in the new duet from Tia Louise. This is a very different side to the stories we are used to from this author, this one is a bit more dark and a bit more sinister but it still had me hooked from the first chapter, it’s a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat with a fair few twists and turns, it’s unpredictable and it has the perfect amount of banter and romance mixed in with just the right amount of humour. The characters have depth and I’m sure you will fall in love with them because Tia Louise really has a way with introducing us to characters we fall for and end up feeling like we have known them all our life, friends who get under our skin and leave us wanting more and I need more, I can’t wait to read book two Under The Stars.
