Secrets and Sins (The Essential Elements Remix Book 1) Kindle Edition

Strange things are happening in this small college town.

Earthquakes occurring nowhere near a fault line. Freak rainstorms when the sky was just clear blue. Winds strong enough to drag people through the trees. Fires that blow out like candles…
And it always seems to happen when one of THEM is around.

Cade. Holden. Chase.

Each one is sinfully sexy. Each one is interested in me for different reasons. And each one holds a secret that could get us all killed.

Secrets are hard to keep. But are they really worth dying for?

* Based on The Essential Elements Series by Elle Middaugh.
** The Essential Elements Remix retells Val's story with a more mature, Reverse Harem twist! Some things are the same, but many things are different. If you—like me—feel that heroines shouldn't have to choose just one guy… then this series is for you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great beginning
Reviewed in Australia on 12 December 2021
Secrets and Sins by Elle Middaugh is the first book the Essential Elements Remix, and based on the Elemental Secrets book.

After Valerie returns back to live with her aunt, strange things relating to the elements begin happening. With secrets hidden all around her and battles building between the elements - Earth, Wind, Water and Fire, Valerie is on a mission to discover what is occurring and who are involved.

The characters and emotions are well written and expressed throughout the story, and the tweaks made to the overall storyline and characters from the original story, has built the book up. Changing the story to reverse harem also makes the book fall in line with Elle Middaugh’s other books, which are also under this sub-genre of books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved this remix of the original series!
Reviewed in Australia on 15 December 2021
Wow, what a first book in this series. It is a remix on the original series and I'm all here for it. There's so much going on and there's a perfect balance to the story, characters and the dialogue. It had me on the edge of my seat and I absolutely loved the RH factor. It's a fun read and I can't wait for more as this is only book one. Phenomenal right from the start. I'm in awe of the whole book, wow!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing start to new series!

First of I love the Elemental theme as I'm a sucker for PNR books and Elle writes amazing stories. This one I like since we only know what Valerie knows too. No things beforehand making it intriguing to read. I really enjoyed the picture painted here and the elementals. Knowing things only happen when THEY are around. It doesn't go unnoticed but figuring it out may just be the end of life as we know it. Secrets are there in place but what to do when all becomes clear? I also enjoy the different sides of Valerie, nerdy but sassy. A lot like myself making her very relatable. I'm really excited for this series.

I loved this book the first time and didn't think it could get any better but Elle Middaugh smashed it out of the park with her reverse harem twist. I read it in one sitting and can't wait for the next book.

The author put a great deal of thought into her characters, world building and dialogue and it totally comes through.
By the time you hit the story pinnacle you realize you’re already going over the next cliff!
This is a fast paced YA novel with a RH?!? Yeah, you heard me, one girl and 3 suitors! Never a dull moment, plenty of twists, angst, intrigue and drama to keep those pages flipping. Absolutely need the next one to see things shake out and see where the story takes us next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Secrets and Sins
Reviewed in the United States on 13 December 2021

From my understanding this is a rh spinoff to a mf series. I didn't read the mf series but I loved this book as an rh. I do wonder if more men will be added then what was indicated on the blurb.
Valerie is starting her first day of college when she runs into old HS crushes, Cade, Chase and Holden. It's obvious that Cade and Holden don't get a long but she can't help to want them both...at the same time. As Valerie gets close to the guys and old HS aquantices she can't help but notice the crazy unnatural weather occurrences. When she finally learns the truth, that they're elementals, beings who can control earth, wind, water or fire, she doesn't know how to handle. She tries her best to accept who they are because she likes them all but not every elemental is happy she knows their secret. Valerie faces more danger then ever now that she knows the truth. Will her men protect her from their own kind?
This is well written medium burn, college student, rh romance. No triggers.

I've never read any books by yhis author before, but I'll be reading more since she broke my reading slump. The storyline was interesting, but it could have used a little more character and relationship building. Also, the stereotypical mean cheerleader bit felt very forced and ended up having no impact on the storyline whatsoever. The action-y scenes were hard to follow, having no warning or little build up to them so I ended up skimming those parts. Despite these, I still gave it a 4 out of 5 for capturing my interest and for the fact that I didn't have to edit it while reading it (thank you, elle middaugh, for editing and proof-reading--unlike a large number of kindle authors). Moving on to book 2!
