Jewel is a Wall Street Journal & USA Today best selling author with a quirky sense of humor. When she's not saving the planet one tree at a time, you can find her role modeling questionable behavior to her three boys, binge-watching Netflix with her husband, and writing mind-bending romance.
Full of emotional angst, scorching love scenes, and a compelling story line.jewel has yet again proved she dominates the angsty genre like a queen. She's built a wild high-altitude ride that will have your emotions soaring to the euphoric highs and then sometimes crash down with frustrating despair all in the same breath. Multi layered characters starring in a powerful gripping plot make for a delectable experience from start to finish.
We met Fisher Mann in The Naked Fisherman and the stroy stood still on the edge of a cliff when we left it.
"if a fifty-micrometer sperm could join with a point-one millimeter egg and result in an entire human being, then two cruciverbalists could fall in love … twice."
The leap of faith takes 5 years and a handful of months before Fisher and the prodigal daughter, Reese get to be in the same town again. The situation is a quagmire of memories now, the more they struggle to escape, the more trapped their souls become and it deepens...oh how the churning passions make the proximities lethal for the hearts and minds.
“I know how I want it to end right now. But I’m so fucking scared of the plot twist because there are just too many chapters left. And I no longer trust life and its plot twists.”
Jewel Deviously pushes the reset button wiping the slate clean. Both characters have to start afresh. Reese's sanity is threatened, Fisher's mind is lost in a fog, and everyone involved is walking on eggshells.
The ensuing story had me furiously flipping pages, I couldn't sleep, eat or get any work done. I never wanted the book to end and even though I could see the oncoming catastrophe, I voyeuristically wanted the crash to be big and momentous.
Jewel delivers and How!!! She's made sure the clash & bang can be heard for pages and chapters from then on.
"Love's messy....thats how you know it's real!"
I'm emotionally drained by the end, my heart whipped and thrashed till the epilogue sets me free.
What a twist!!
What a conniving turn of events!!
I couldn't believe what I just read, had to go back and read it twice!!
Oh jewel!! You Diabolical Genius!!
"And it’s big. And all-consuming. It’s scary. It’s exhilarating. And real."
Two scenes...no...actually THREE scenes are momentous in the story.
The sit-down of Rory-Rose-Reese where Reese explains the dynamics of their current predicament.
The sidewalk scene where truths tumble out.
And the last scene, the blind trust and acceptance of Reese, her POV.
These scenes are stories unto themselves. I've NEVER read anything like this before, NEVER seen situations handled like this before and NEVER experienced the turmoil of this magnitude before.
A quicksand of Desires that pulls you and sucks you deep, embellished with wittiest, hottest banter from jewel i've ever read. That tripping on the weiner sure did sharpen her horny side of humour I think 😜
