When I had the chance to join this tour for the PLAY ME serial, I thought it would be fun. Oh, mama, after a few pages, I was all hot and bothered and glued to my e-reader like melted honey ;o)
MY OPINION OF THE PLAY ME SERIAL
1
Funny, vindictive
and tough, that's how I like my heroine. And the first five minutes reading
this novella show me exactly that's how Aria is like.
She manages
to convey her job and why she's doing it at the same time the conflict starts
to take root.
Vegas, a
waitress, a Russian billionaire who won't take a no for an answer. That's a
recipe for disaster, but Aria won't stand meek before an idiot no matter how
rich he is or how desperately she needs the job. I loved that situation!
Then Sebastian
is introduced. How do you mix a manager of a casino and a good, sexy man?
Sebastian is the answer. I was in love with him after a paragraph ;o)
The situation
that brings them together is messy and dubious. She craves control when
everything in life has stripped her of it. Now, it's up to Sebastian to take
her job away but he's nothing like she could have expected from a rich,
powerful man. He's smart and so clever that he realizes the only way she will
trust him enough to accept his control will be if he relinquishes it first to
her. So the love games being!
I was
fascinated by the sheer tension of their first encounter. It's dripping with
barely contained attraction and psychological strategy. A tantalizing question
from Sebastian closes this arousing first part.
2
OMG. The
passion is blinding. The narrative is engulfing, it had me as if I were
possessed, oblivious to the real world. I couldn't breathe for thirty pages
straight! I'm laughing out loud right now with the white hot intensity of this
couple's lovemaking. Gorgeous, deep, mind-blowing.
I thought
Sebastian was a good man, but he was hiding a secret agenda. He was planning to
claim Aria in a way that goes through her senses into her very soul. I even
learned a few things about the different states a person can fall into when the
intimacy reaches extreme places. Wow, I'm really impressed with the effect this
story is having on me.
3
After
their wildly disconcerting connection during their intimate encounter,
Sebastian is showing a caring side that Aria is fearful to trust. In
particular, because she craves it, but she's fought hard to be free from
interference or dominance so she fights him all the way. What if he finds out
about her past? What if she loses her job? I felt every emotion, every concern
and every longing she had. It was so intense and sensitive at the same time. I
didn't know that what happens after that kind of intimacy could be described in
such a way.
In this third
part, there is more that "just" life-altering sexy times. Family
secrets start pouring out, including a new plot entailing Sebastian's past. The
cliffhanger ending was out of this world. What? Now I have to know it all
before I take my next breath!
4
As their
relationship deepens, so does the danger of their dark secrets spilling out. I
was mesmerized when Sebastian is faced
with his past and the cruel blow of confessing to Aria.
In this part,
there is another couple of characters that bring more edge to the plot. An old
acquaintance of Sebastian's who I'm not sure if he has his own book yet, but
seems pretty well-developed so it's a strong possibility. And a good one ;o)
When the
vortex of guilt and violence explodes in one of the most erotic lovemaking scenes
I've ever read, it just sucks you in. I don't know how the author manages it,
but she's got a unique talent to combine passion, control, painful pleasure and
desperate need, and then pour it all into a powerfully charged narrative that
will leave you panting and out of your mind. And the most beautiful thing is
that it all goes beyond the body, the painful control, to where the senses
connect with who the characters are, why they're so damaged, and how
completely, undeniably fit together.
Believe me, this
episode is just terrifying, both emotionally and physically. Pure catharsis. I
don't know how I'll read the next one. I need a break...
5
It was too
much. Sebastian's action took a toll on Aria and me! But it's the moment of
truth. I have to face the end. They have to face their own demons, those in the
past and those they carry inside.
Sebastian has
a secret that was devastating to him, but Aria has a secret that might break
them both. OMG. I'm trembling with excitement over the pages that are coming,
the things about to come out and burn all of us!
(after the
burning)
Well.... it's
over now. Or not. Because Aria has told the last, soul-shattering truth and
Sebastian has been there for her all along. However, the ending is just the
amazing beginning of another story. And I was right! There is an Ethan Frost
story somewhere and I must read everything by this author. She's made me go
through hell and paradise in five novellas. Just wow.
