Release Blitz Review + Giveaway!- New Blue (Blue Series, #5) by Jules Barnard

New Blue Blitz

Title:  New Blue (Blue Series, #5)
Author: Jules Barnard
Publication Date: March 28th 2016
Plot:  Summer in Lake Tahoe just got hot...

As Hayden Tate fights to hold her own inside the old boys club of Blue Casino, privileged Adam Cade must decide between the job that means certain freedom from his father’s heavy thumb, or standing up for the girl who’s slowly working her way into his jaded heart. 

---

The survivor of a high school sabotage that made her flee her hometown at sixteen, Hayden is no stranger to bullying. Now she has returned to Lake Tahoe to take on her dream job with a degree and a backbone. But her newfound strength is pushed to the limit as she fights to hold her own against the old boys club of Blue Casino. 

Adam is the prince of Lake Tahoe, born into one of the wealthiest families in the area. He’s used to doing what he wants when he wants. So when his powerful father threatens to cut him off without a dime unless he uses his Ivy League degree for a job his father got him at Blue Casino, Adam capitulates. Hayden, the head of HR, hates Adam on the spot, finding every way possible to put him in his place—and suddenly the lackey job his father found him gets interesting. Adam’s life of leisure lacks substance, and even though he’s not willing to give it up, he wouldn’t mind the distraction Hayden presents. 

But when the casino’s sinister inner workings begin to reveal themselves and Adam is caught between the powerful executives he works for and the lovely Hayden, his loyalties are divided. Blue Casino offers Adam a lucrative career where he wouldn’t need his father’s money for the lifestyle he’s accustomed to, but at what cost? Hayden’s silly side shines through when Adam least expects it, charming his jaded heart, and forcing him to face a morality he never knew he had. For the first time in Adam’s life he finds himself yearning for something real, but will he risk losing everything to have it?


New Blue is the 5th and final book in the Blue Series. Each book in the Blue Series is a stand-alone story and does not need to be read in order.

 My Review 

☆ I received an ARC via Indiesage PR in exchange for an honest review. Thank you! ☆

As majority of all know, you should always read book series in the order that they are written and released. But I didn't. In fact, I hadn't realized this was the fifth and last installment in this series until after I had already signed up for the release blitz and started reading. But, I don't regret it for one second. The synopsis was too darn intriguing to pass up.

Hayden Tate has returned to her hometown of Lake Tahoe after a devastating past, she vows that she will return a changed woman-- stronger, smarter, and more courageous than what she was.

Now securing a dream job at Blue Casino, she vows to no longer be that limber girl she once was and to stand up to wealth, privilege, and corruption. Everything that embodies Adam Cade to a tee.

But Adam isn't on the inside what Hayden as pegged him to be. He longs for more but he doesn't know what. He wants to prove himself but he doesn't even know if that entails the Blue Casino. Until now after meeting her.

I have to admit, it was a bit bizarre walking into this blind. Like, completely. But in another sense, it was what made this read a bit more of an exciting challenge. Walking into the unknown and now curious to know how it all began. Brings on a surreal feeling.

Over all though, New Blue was an enjoyable read that tests love, friendships, family, and loyalties, and where they all fit in the ever wheeling power of prestige.

I'm now curious to know more about author Jules Barnard and how to read more from her in the future!
