RISING to book-slay you

Hi, book buddies :-)

Have you been as crazy for the end of this series as I have?


I am ready for some Slaying fun...


RISING
Slay 4
by Laurelin Paige
Release Date: May 12th


MY OPINION 

How can one express the multitude of emotions when reading the last book in a series of four? 

It’s overwhelming. 

This couple has gone through so much growing pain in their relationship. I wanted them to have their happy ending without losing their sharp edge and intense passion. I think they got their epiphany in this final book.

They still challenge each other in so many ways. Beliefs, dominance, secrets, business, intimacy, trust. It's all a big tangle of feelings and plans that pushes them into couple battles. Dialogues sizzle and desire flares in deeply wanton ways.

l enjoyed all the clashes and wounds. The tender, moving moments as well. They are so much more together now than what they used to be. Still trying to find their foot in an ever changing personal world. And Celia is truly RISING to be the dragon she was meant to be. 

With the bomb at the end of the previous book, though, I was ready for cataclismic interactions in the first chapters. However, I felt many paramount issues were almost tiptoed over such as Celia's news or the resolution of her traumatic past with the family. I wanted direct confrontation but it was dealt with laterally. 

I think it was all gathering momentum to start exploding in the second part as the characters face their last ultimatum to their true bond. Feelings and truths soar like an electric storm. Both Celia and Edward pull a chain of lessons about themselves and each other. It is eye-opening and dramatic, but not as heart-wrecking as the other books, and all threads are taken care of with a keen sense of closure. All the darks are tempered with light.

The last events brush on another character's storyline, Hudson Pierce, who has a very rewarding last scene that helps put everything in perspective. This final book is a true redemption for the villains who also deserve their own healing and happy ending. I sighed with content at the last word. 


Add to Goodreads:


WHAT IS THIS ABOUT?

The stakes have never been higher, and she's full of the devil.

Edward Fasbender is my husband.

Together, we brought down powerful men.

Now we have a chance to start over. To be the family neither of us ever had, to leave the past in the past where it belongs. Edward has a choice to make.

It will decide if we fall into the flames--or rise together.



ENJOY AN EXCERPT 

She cried out, on the verge of orgasm, I suspected, but she managed to hang on, and a moment later she was collected enough to speak. “Even without the secrets, you scare me.” It was quiet, a confession of sorts. “You’re the only person who has ever loved me exactly like I am. The only person I’ve ever trusted entirely. That means you are more capable of hurting me than anyone who has hurt me before, and that’s the most frightening thing I’ve ever imagined.”

My tempo stuttered as I digested her words. Knowing everyone who had hurt her, knowing the ways they’d hurt her—that was a mighty declaration. It rocked me at my core. Made me off balance. That was a form of submission, wasn’t it? Being vulnerable like that. Making me aware of my power.

REVENGE will be mine

Hi, book buddies ☺
I am sure you have been awaiting your Revenge...

Ready for some Slaying fun?
😈


  REVENGE (Slay #3) by Laurelin Paige 
Release Date: February 25th

MY OPINION 

Can a book be better than its predecessors?  This series has proven that and with honours. The third in a series of four and it is a masterpiece of psychological warfare, character evolution, depth of emotion, and a love that defies labels.

Celia and Edward deserve a genre of their own.

I felt absorbed like by a black hole of irresistible attraction and intensity. Now there is passion and true commitment in their tumultuous relationship, but the struggle and the challenges are far from settled.  

This couple is teetering on the razor-sharp edge between revenge and self-preservation. Is it worth it to pursue resolution for injustices done to them, or the price will be too high for the soul?

There's an analogy about strength and the lengths we go to in order to fulfill revenge that was simply genius. And the battle of wills continue with extreme force when they deal with past traumas and present trust. Celia is still facing her demons in more detailed,  painful ways, which I think take now a resolute, productive tone. Yet Edward surprised me with his own issues. His psyche is delved into with excruciating clarity. So much thrill in this book, in these characters' constant clash and provocative dialogues, in the tempest and fervor of their unorthodox romance. Spectacular.

I think my admiration for Celia grew exponentially once again. She deals with her husband's blind obsession with unyielding hope and resilience. So much drama and raw emotions between them, oh my! I feel as if I know them, their happiness being vital to me now.

One of the most harrowing situations about Celia's past comes to a keenly graphic epiphany, with Edward very much a triggering motor behind it. It is hard to go through, and epic as it is, it only builds up to more peaks of secrets revealed for this couple. I believe the tests keep piling up for them and the next book will be unmissable.

ENJOY AN EXCERPT 

Inside the windowed room, I set one of the glasses on a table next to the loveseat then dimmed the overhead before taking the other glass to the armchair across from it. The string of lights that had been put up outside for the party were still lit, creating a romantic mood. Not exactly what I was going for, but it would do. In my experience, the darker setting made confessions easier.

I stretched my neck, easing the knots there as I looked out over the yard. The day had been busy and full, and the party had been, by all accounts, successful, but I’d spent the entire time preoccupied with Edward. Even when entertaining strangers or running around trying to find Ilsa to tell her we were out of toilet paper, I’d been aware of my husband. He was a magnetic force, always pulling my thoughts and my body in his direction. Like gravity holding me in his orbit.
I’d never felt that way about anyone before. Not just that in love but also that attached. I was still reeling from the newness of it, eighteen months after we’d wed.

I was also still adjusting to the way he affected me. How he’d brought me peace yet could stir up levels of jealousy within me that I’d never thought possible. His trip to the garden with Marion was innocent—it had to be considering the way he grinned at me when he’d returned. The devil himself wouldn’t flaunt his discretions so openly.

Would he?
