Review

Having read the first book and loved it I couldn’t wait to get started with this and it certainly didn’t disappoint.

These stories are filled to the brim with romance, passion and so much drama, it’s impossible not to be sucked into the lives of these characters.

This book picks up pretty much from the ending of the first with Grayson and Becca on a plane to go see Becca’s BFF Stacey. And from the get go you can tell that Becca and Gray’s relationship is as passionate as ever both in terms of their sexual chemistry and their many arguments.

As with the first book I don’t always like the way Gray talks to/treats Becca or how he snaps at her some times, their relationship is very passionate and intense, with reason as well considering everything they go through and Becca isn’t perfect herself, she has definitely has a temper and is quick to react, but I think maybe Gray’s character could have been tonned down a little when it comes to how he reacts when he’s angry or jealous.

Ray is another character I don’t always love, it is such a confusing “love triangle” between Gray, Becca and Ray. His behaviour sometimes is a step too far for me, just like Gray’s is but then he would redeem himself and I would like him again.
These conflicting personality traits are all explained at the end but while I was reading it was certainly driving me crazy.

Straight from the get go we are thrown into the story and the drama never really stops. This non-stop action continues throughout the book and this is why I have really enjoyed these books..because I am never bored, there are so many twists and turns which keep me
hooked.

I was quite confused sometimes wondering what on earth was happening but then we find out…. and OH.MY.GOD!! I never saw that coming, it’s literally the biggest surprise ending I’ve ever read in a book. I’m still shocked by it all. I definitely shed a few tears as well, the last few pages were some of my favourites of the whole book. They were beautiful and heartbreaking.

I can’t quite give this book 5 stars as there were some aspects that irritated me, like the conflicting personalities of Gray and Ray, the repetitiveness of some words and sometimes the constant back and forth of Grayson and Becca just seemed like too much.
But I still love this story because the plot is just so good, so full of action that no matter what you just want to and have to keep reading. The ending will seriously blow your mind and it actually explained some aspects of the book which annoyed me slightly.

One of the most shocking endings of a book I’ve ever read and overall a really exciting story. Now that everything has been explained I can’t wait for the next book to see where the story goes.
