Rollercoaster of emotions!
Last Kiss is a book I'd been waiting for a long time to read. With the dramatic cliffhanger at the end of First Touch, there were a lot of questions running through my head about this enigmatic series that needed to be answered. Mission accomplished!
This second book starts right where the last one ended, with the return of Amber. To say that her arrival brings even more struggles in Emily's life is an understatement. She loves Amber, but her relationship with her is now fragile, with the burden of suspicion and manipulation. Emily is also quite torn between her new found love for Reeve and her affection for Amber.
She's conflicted and I think it was a reason why she still has difficulty in this book to trust Reeve. Both friends are in love with the same man and it's brings secrets and dishonesty.
I loved Reeve, with this always present mystery and edge of darkness surrounding him. For most of the book, like Emily, I was ambivalent about him. Is he good or is he bad?? That was a question I asked myself a lot during my read. It really kept me reading and reading to uncover his real self. Reeve is a real contradiction with his hard controlling ways, but also his dedication to Emily. He manages to let her finally embrace her submissive nature, being the ideal companion because he absolutely understand her needs. Their relationship is rocky with all the stress surrounding Amber's come back, but there feelings for each other is very clear. I really felt their connection!
Reeve's uncle, Michelis Vilanakis, is still present in the background, adding to the enigma of Amber's state and the reasons behind his twisted actions. All along the book I couldn't wait to resolve this puzzle and I must say that until the very end of the book I was still guessing.
Job incredibly well done by Laurelin Paige! She completely achieved to bring me on a roller-coaster of emotions packed with tension, scorching sex and betrayals, with a load of complex characters. If you're in search of a gripping book, it's the one you need!!
ALL THE STARS!!!!
Laurelin Paige has RUINED me. She has taken all the words. First of all, how do I sum up all that is this series without giving away it's secrets? Second, the story, the characters and the plot are all so beautifully and masterfully intertwined with words to create an eloquent, beautiful and shocking masterpiece. Any words I try to use to do it justice will just look amateur.
Last Kiss picks up right were First Touch left off. At the mind blowing cliffhanger that left me with heart palipatations. The characters and the story continued to keep me in their clutches right until the very end. Even when it was over, I still didn't want to let go. I still wanted more!
Someone please explain to me why there are only 5 Stars. This is so beyond that rating. The feels, the suspense and the chemistry are off the charts! LOVED IT isn't enough.
