Infinite Possibilities
The Secret Life of Amy Bensen, Book Two
by Lisa Renee Jones
Excerpt (aka TEASE)
His finger touches my cheek, then caresses slowly downward to my
neck, and I feel the barely there touch everywhere, inside and out. Goosebumps
lift on my skin, and I, and embarrassingly, I almost moan when he drags his
finger over my breast and nipple. He drops his hand and I shiver with the
delicate teasing sensations that linger where he’s touched, where he has not
touched. He leans in closer, careful not to press his body to mine when that is
exactly what I burn for, then lightly, so very lightly, brushes his lips over
mine. A breath later, he is gone, leaving me gasping as he disappears behind me
and it is all I can do not to turn to watch him.
Synopsis
Secrets and lies. They are everywhere: haunting her, tormenting
her. In the midst of it all, he’d been her escape, her passion. The only person
she’d trusted in six years. And then he’d made her doubt that trust, cutting
her deeply. But as she’d once told him, she was damaged, not broken. She is
ready to fight and not just for survival. She is fighting for the truth and she
won’t stop until she has it, not even for…him
After years of running away, Amy Bensen is now running toward the danger that destroyed her life and family. But What is the truth, Who can she trust, and Where does Liam fit in all of this?
Escaping Reality (Secret Life of Amy Bensen #1)
Infinite possibilities….
Infinite passion…..
Infinite danger….
His touch spirals through me, warm and sweet,
wicked and hot. I shouldn’t trust him. I shouldn’t tell him my secrets. But how
do I not when he is the reason I breath? He is what I need.
At
the young age of eighteen, tragedy and a dark secret force Lara to flee all she
has known and loves to start a new life. Now years later, with a new identity
as Amy, she’s finally dared to believe she is forgotten–even if she cannot
forget. But just when she lets down her guard down, the ghost’s of her past are
quick to punish her, forcing her back on the run.
On a
plane, struggling to face the devastation of losing everything again and
starting over, Amy meets Liam Stone, a darkly entrancing recluse billionaire,
who is also a brilliant, and famous, prodigy architect. A man who knows what he
wants and goes after it. And what he wants is Amy. Refusing to take “no” as an
answer, he sweeps her into a passionate affair, pushing her to her erotic
limits. He wants to possess her. He makes her want to be possessed. Liam
demands everything from her, accepting nothing less. But what if she is too
devastated by tragedy to know when he wants more than she should give? And what
if there is more to Liam than meets the eyes? To read our Lisa Renee Jones guest post for Escaping Reality,

Escaping Reality Reviews by Inner Goddess
pearls--5 Stars --
You are on the edge of your seat from page 1. Amy (if that is her real name) is in danger. You don't know why or from whom, but it is grave danger. She is (one again) on the run. And she is just as clueless as the reader. The reader and Amy decipher the clues together. Liam is the right guy in the right place at the right time. Coincidence or Fate? Either way he promises to teach her to control her fear rather letting it control her. By the end of the story, we have more questions than answers to her plight, but Amy has matured into a woman no longer content to let others shelter her. She wants the answers and is willing to swim with the sharks to get them. Her angst and paranoia have grown into determination. A wild ride for the reader, full of mysteries and danger and steamy scenes.
This was my first New Adult read. I was afraid it would be a diluted version of one of favorite storyteller! But it wasn't. If anything, Amy's determination to stand on her own while fighting against the odds made the storyline even stronger.

TinkNCognito -- 5 Stars--
This book, as Lisa Renee Jones' other books, caught me from the very first page. I was immediately curious about Amy. I wanted to know her story from the outset. Then she meets Liam and sparks fly. The attraction was immediate and intense. But I really wanted to know why Amy was in danger, who was behind it and who is the mysterious 'handler'.
When Liam so quickly becomes a part of Amy's life, I was thrilled. they seem so perfectly suited to one another. But they each are holding onto their own secrets. The scenes between these two are hot and steamy, full of passion.
The end was a cliffhanger that left me craving with a desperate need the next book. October can't get here soon enough to find out more of the story of Amy.

UGH! I posted a comment but I guess it didn't take! Let's see if this works now! lol The sexiest place for a tattoo is for me on the shoulders, arms and back. Although on the right body, there's a ton of delicious places for a tattoo to be sexy!
ReplyDeleteThe sexiest place for a tattoo for me is the place between shoulder blades :D
ReplyDeleteIt depends on if it's a woman or a man. I think for a man it would have to be on his chest and for the woman it would be on the upper back. For the man, the tattoo would be sexy in black with shading and for the woman, the tattoo would be in color. Thank you for the great giveaway.

I really like a nice upper arm tattoo - one that goes all the way around. Also I think it's sexy for a guy to have one on his side. Who am I kidding - I like guys with tattoos, period!
ReplyDeleteThe abs or the back if it is a full back piece
ReplyDeleteon the abs like Liam's
ReplyDeleteLoved the book and now I can't wait for the third book. Liam's tattoo is in the perfect spot!
