Five dates with Intoxicating Passion

                        

Hi, book buddies. How is your weekend going? Mine has been devoted to reading and relaxing, with the exception of a few hours out because I HAD to see Pompeii. By Jove, it's good. Surprisingly so, I must admit. I expected a typical blockbuster, but it's done with elegance, wonderfully choreographed gladiator combats, and spectacular vistas of Pompeii and the volcano.

Now on to books. Today I'm taking part in the review blast of INTOXICATING PASSION, by Felicia Tatum. Want to know what's all about? It's a couple's story of love denied and found through 5 novellas. This is what reading it meant to me.

FIRST DATE

A girl who's sick of bad blind dates. 

A man who doesn't feel a thing.

A girl whose heart is broken.

A man who breaks hearts without regret.

And a Halloween party that will bind them in an intoxicating chance of passion.

It was interesting to get to know Korah and Dane as they go along their day, thinking and feeling and both shunning all emotional connection with the opposite sex. They have loved and come scalded out of the trial. As the exciting Halloween party nears, they are blissfully unaware of what is in store for them. Readers, on the other hand, are eagerly awaiting this moment of sparks and sensuality. And it pays off.

SECOND DATE

A man who's obsessed with a mysterious beauty.

A girl who has no idea who he is.

What a surprise! It was fun to see how these two cross their paths again. Dane won't let go of his infatuation, but Korah can't believe  word he says. She knows his tpe. Anyway, they can't resist the temptation and that's when hot encounters begin to complicate things.

I was a bit surprised though at Korah's attitude. She insists on denying Dane a chance at wooing her, but then it doesn't take him any hardship to get to the ultimate prize. She gives in too easily in this case. Then again, it's all in the name of drama. Which is what comes next on...

THIRD DATE

A lot of drama and bad sex.

A man and a girl confront their inner demons, and nothing seems to fall in place.

Despite their mistakes, in this part of the story I see the characters fight themselves in order to find a way out of their problems. I liked how they try to get closer to each other but seem to grow apart. That adds vitality and angst over the evolution of both the plot and the characters.

FOURTH DATE

The author delves deeper into the relationship, making it passionate and tender. The way Dane cares for Korah in her most vulnerable, terrifying moments is endearing. However, his insecurities and bad temper are going to test his newly found bond with Korah. This is getting tough!

FIFTH DATE

Dane has almost messed up his life, but Korah is regaining her will to fight back. And it's great to see her come out of her shell, for herself and for Dane.

They both come to a resolution as a couple and as individuals. And they kick all kinds of demons in the ass. Great for you, guys!  It was a realistic, though romantic wrap-up for a bumpy and passionate story.

BEST FEATURE: it's not only about love or sex, it deals with self-respect and the awareness of deserving better.

Cada vez me asombra más la cantidad de ideas que hay pululando por ahí, lo que me lleva a la triste conclusión de que jamás llegaré a leer ni una centésima parte de esos libros.

EDGE OF TRUTH, de Natasha Hanova, trata sobre una joven que es capaz de provocar terremotos a través de sus emociones. Vive en un mundo futurista donde la única forma de pasar desapercibida y vivir una larga vida es trabajar en las fábricas sin atraer la atención de la ley. Cuando se atreve a vender reliquias en el mercado negro, su peor pesadilla se vuelve realidad. La chantajean por esa pieza a cambio de la vida de alguien querido. No sólo tendrá que arriesgar su futuro, sino la libertad en un mundo de opresión.

Edge of Truth

Natasha Hanova

Published- June 6th, 2013

Sapphire Star Publishing

Citizens who report to work on time, obey the Overlord’s laws, and stay off the Synbot’s radar, live long lives. Long, dull, monotonous lives.

It’s not a bad plan for someone with a hidden, emotion-based ability to trigger earthquakes. In a world pitted against her, sixteen-year-old Rena Moon strives for a life beyond working herself to death at the factory. Seeing an alternative, she risks selling relics from the forbidden lands at Market. It becomes the worst decision she ever made. Someone kidnaps her best friend in exchange for the one thing that would end her oppression.

Driven by loyalty, Rena and seventeen-year-old Nevan Jelani, soulful composer, green thumb extraordinaire, and the secret love of her life, plot to rescue her friend and reclaim her salvage. Still, the thought lingers whether Nevan is a true hero or another thief waiting for his chance at her loot. Events spin wildly, deepening Rena’s suspicions and pushing her limit of control. With more than her chance for freedom at stake, she must decide if she’s willing to kill to protect what’s precious to her. For once, the Overlord isn’t holding all the power, but can Rena live with being reduced to what she’s trying so hard to escape?
