Synopsis:
A new adult story of Love. Sex. Addiction. Blackmail. And Power...
Some say love can be an addiction. Others say it's the thing that makes life worth living. Let me tell you everything I know about love...Love isn't patient, love isn't kind. Love is a game, a chase. A thrill. Love is wild and war-like, and every man and woman must fight for themselves. At least that's how it was for me. A high-priced virgin call girl by the time I started college, I was addicted to love and to sex. Even though I've never had either. I controlled love, played it, and held the world in the palm of my hands. Then I fell down from those highs, and I'm being blackmailed for all my mistakes, forced to keep secrets from everyone, except the only guy I don't regret.
Trey...
With all the other women, I knew what they were. They were temporary. They were pills, they were bottles, they took away all the pain, and numbed the awful memories that wore down my ragged, wasted heart. Until I met Harley. She's the only girl I ever missed when she walked away. But now she's back in my life, every day, and there are no guarantees for us, especially since I don't know how to tell her my secrets. What happened to my family. All I know is she's the closest I've ever come to something real, and I want to feel every second of it.
How can you love with no regrets when regret is all you know?
THE THRILL OF IT Goodreads:
My Review
5 of 5 The Thrill Of It
Lauren Blakely has done it again! She has written another winner that will knock you off your feet. She has this amazing ability to hook you right in and keep you there reading until the end where you are screaming at your e-reader because you need and want more!
The Thrill Of It is one roller coaster of a ride. It is told in a dual POV and we get to see Trey's side and Harley's side. I love when I read a book in dual POV because you get each persons in monologue and you get to see the pain or the happiness they are feeling right at that moment and for me I love it as a reader because there are times when I am reading and I am like what is that person thinking.... but Lauren she has rocked the house with this one and I need book two like I need air to breathe.
Harley is a great female lead. She has it all but at the same time what she really wants she does not have until she meets him. Harley is a high priced call girl who is a virgin. Yes folks I said it she is a virgin and she loves her job. She loves the adrenaline rush the excitement and the rush of power she gets when she is with these men. But see Harley has secrets and she is being black mailed by this wench and Harley is trying hard like hell to keep her secrets. Her mother is always harping on her and her childhood sucked so Harley is trying to make a name for herself and move on in life and that is better said then done because her black mailer is determined to take her down.
Trey is sex on legs! Lord he is so dam fine and perfect but underneath all that is a is a guy looking for something or someone to fill a void he has in his heart. He uses sex as a balm to his ragged heart and he is fine with it because he loves sex. Sex is his drug of choice until he meets her.She is his game changer and he wants her but he does not know how to be in a relationship nor is he sure he really wants that until she gets under his skin. Trey lives everyday with secrets and regrets so he is not sure he wants to bring her into his messed up life.
But what do you do when you know in your heart she is the one and he is the one? Well Trey and Harley will have to fight to be together because nothing good is ever easy and these two are about to feel the thrill of it and have to decide whether or not they can jump together or walk away before they get hurt........
