Second book in this series and I really enjoyed catching up with the Reynolds and Stoker's. As always, lots of drama and the cliffhanger has left it wide open for a few different storyline. Eagerly anticipating the third instalment of this series.

This is the second book in the series, the first book Takeover was brilliant and it saw Samantha Reynold taking over her father's business. This second book continues the story as Sam and rival club owner, Seb work together to deal with what's coming.

This book could be read as a stand-alone, but in all seriousness, I would consider reading the Takeover first as it introduces the characters and deals with things that make it easier to understand them. That being said the author does a great job of filling in the basics.

As Sam is still coming to terms with being adopted she has the support of Sam Stoker. Although they didn't immediately trust each other, they have realised that they can not only work together but trust each other. Being rival club owners work for them, but not necessarily for those who work for them. Family's can be tricky things and when they feel that things could be a danger or threaten them things get tricky. How can they convince their respective families and close family friends that this is all going to work out?

The author has once again provided a fabulous story that hit the grounds running. Working the suspicious natures of those around Sam and Serb has been wonderfully done. It adds tension and gives the overall feel of the story a good pace. Sam still feels as if she has to prove herself, which is difficult for a woman to do at the best of times. But, in this more male-dominated world she has to prove not only how tough she can be but also that she is resilient. Seb, well he is a fabulous character and is the rock that Sam needs. But, as much as she needs him he needs her as well. They make a great team.

This is a dangerous world that the author has created for her characters. The baddies are great as well as obviously the goodies! The author brings a sense of mistrust and intrigue that helps fuel the pace of the story, it kept me on my toes and eagerly turning the pages. The title Fallout is brilliant as for me it sums up this story very well.

If you are looking for a crime thriller story that has a strong gangland element to it then you really need this series on your shelf. Brilliant story, fabulous characters and an addictive read. It is one I would definitely recommend.

Wow...brilliant second book in the series, and as always with Edie's books, I didn't want it to end but at the same time couldn't stop reading. Once again with this book, Edie's proved that she is up there with the best of the genre and I'm looking forward to the next book.

Thank you Netgalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC. This is the second in the series and not having read the first book it took me a while to get into it while I worked out who everyone was. Then it was non stop and I liked the pace, the characters, the storyline and the fact that you couldn’t predict where it was going. The story follows Sam Reynold who has taken over her father’s business following his death. She is determined to prove, to not only her own staff but also her rivals, that she is not a walk over and is up to the job. On top of this she has news that makes her question her own identity. If you like gangland and gritty this is one for you. Definitely an author that I will be reading more of!

OMG! This drew me in quickly and there was that instant tension of a drama unfolding. An incredibly well thought out, very original plotline and one I had not foreseen. I turned ever quicker and devoured this- the sign of a gripping, well written read. A captivating, rollercoaster of a book. Loved it.

Thanks to netgalley for letting me review this book. I loved it .Is anything ever going to go right for sam reynolds? After finding out her mom and dad who raised her were not biogical parents and she had been sold.. seb who leads a rival firm wants to protect sam at all costs, but is he able to? This drew me in from the first page, highley recommend if you like gangland

Samantha Reynolds Is determined to prove she's got what it takes to be tough enough to be the boss.A past secret threatens to ruin her reputation and when things fall apart there's only one person she can turn to Sebastian Stoker.
He loves Samantha so much he'll protect her no matter what but it comes at a price,his place as head of the family firm is threatened and when accusations begin to fly The Fallout could be deadly.
The second book in the series.
Gritty and gripping throughout great characters even the badies.My new go to favourite author can't wait for the next installment.
Thanks to Netgalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC.

This ARC was provided to me via Kindle, Boldwood Books and by #NetGalley. Opinions expressed are completely my own.

A follow up to the Takeover it didn’t disappoint. Gripping, thrills and a true nail biter.

This is the second book in the series and that’s where I pick the story up. I had a lot on my plate in the beginning because I did not know the characters from the previous book and I had to get to know them. That was no problem at all. I quite liked it, figuring out who was who and who was part of which family.

This was a book filled with lies, deceit and revenge as the cover already promises us and they kept their promise.

I like it when those scheming so and so’s end up with what they deserve. You reap what you sow and when you try to solve things with violence, you often are treated the same way. So if you cannot stand the heat…

Sam is the one who evolves the most. She goes from little princess to tough business woman, but that does not mean she looses her hart of gold for those she loves.

As I mentioned before when reviewing a gangland crime, that’s what I really enjoy about the genre. The bosses are hard as nails, but where their loved ones are concerned they will do whatever they can to protect them. They love them deeply and they fight with all they have.

I loved this book and I am looking forward to the next part. 5 stars

Thank you

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and author for this ARC.

This is a great follow on to Takeover. I thought this was a gripping and thrilling read that was very entertaining. There were characters I either really liked, loved or loathed and I can’t wait to see one of them get their comeuppance. Sam has taken on her late fathers business and is now running it herself. This book is full of lies, secrets, deceit and twist after twist that I loved. It is very well written, flows very well and raced to an unexpected ending. Edie Baylis certainly knows how to write a book that grabs your attention immediately and holds it right to the last page. I read this in a day, it was that good! Looking forward to the next book in series. If you like gangland thrillers then this is for you and I’d definitely recommend it.

So this was an amazing book. Well written. It was gripping. I literally couldn't put it down it was that good.

Book Two full of secret's lies and revenge with family the Reynolds and Stokers, Samantha Reynolds learns her real identity, that is going to cause one big massive fall out with the families and who do you trust.
Revenge is out there just waiting to strike.
This has to be one of the most twisted stories I have read this year so far, it's so full on with action that I could not put it down, sensational, mind-blowing story, that makes you gasp, the author has done a brilliant job of bringing her readers feeling they are in there with the characters that you either love or loathe them. This book will go down well, and it's a book I will recommend to all. A well deserved cracking 5 big stars and more from me. Eagerly wondering what's coming next.

Fallout by Edie Baylis.
The Allegiance Series Book 2.
Samantha Reynold is determined to prove she’s tough enough to be the boss but a secret from the past threatens everything. Only one man can helps her but will Sebastian Stoker do it?.
A brilliant read. I love this author. Great story and characters. I hope there is more to come. 5*.

The second book I have read by Baylis and the second book in this series.
Though I was not as engrossed in this novel as I was the first, I still found it an
interesting, and intriguing read which has kept my attention once I got into the first couple of chapters.
Again, if you like gritty gangland thrillers then this is an author for you.

Firstly thank you Netgalley for the ARC. Wow what a brilliant book, this is gangland at its best. Edie Baylis you are just getting better and better.

Was so excited to read the book I couldn't sleep until I finished it
