Another home run, another cliff, and another gah! Why can't I start the next one right now?!!?

What worked: characters - I love the relationship between heroine/hero. I was really worried about the connection to JT and even though it's not pretty, it was a relief. narration - gah, Christian Fox will you please narrate the PHONE BOOK? amazing narration - two narrators and they compliment each other well. The story - geez, how does SB think of this stuff ? One revelation in particular has my gut turning. And holy hell, what just happened? THe issues - I continue to love the way this trilogy deals with the issue of rape. It's confronting the big issues - victim guilt, victim blame, children of rape, difficulty of proof... just way to go!

What could have worked better: I could be reading book 3 now... aka, I've got nothing!

I was so weary going into this one. I mean, I knew certain things were going to happen, but I did not know how quickly Bennett would resolve those issues. So, color me happy with the way Bennett did it. I also had so much fun trying to guess what would happen next, and although I had a suspicion about who did what, I still gasped when things were revealed. Lots of intrigue and suspense in this installment. I can say, I did not see that ending coming, but I was happy about it. Now -- onto the last book!

Oh my freaking goodness. Sugar Rush has left me with a thundering heart and completely out of breath!



Bennett is a master at mixing erotica and suspense, and she truly proved that in Sugar Rush! All my feelings were invested, and I swear, Sela almost killed me at times. Both at the beginning and towards the very end, I wasn't sure if I wanted to hurry up and read or if I needed a break from the emotional rollercoaster. Beck is an awesome character, too, and the way his and Sela's relationship is getting stronger is so well done. I love that they are able to share everything with each other, even if they don't always do it anyway.

Fast paced, and filled with suspense surrounding JT, Sugar Rush is a true rush - but it's not sweet - not at all! It's dark. It's dangerous. It's filled with secrets, and some of those might turn out deadly. And just when things started to look better, there was an incredible twist that just made everything seem different, and nothing can be taken for granted anymore. And I know I'm really vague, but I kind of have to be - because I want you to enjoy this story as much as I did. And to do that, you have to hurry up and pick it up and read it! I have to have someone I can discuss it with!

Written in dual points of views, from Sela's and Beck's perspectives, the story shows more depths to the characters and the way they perceive the world around them. I found their ability to trust each other more to be endearing, and it also turned out to be something that was necessary. My heart is still racing, and I just have to start reading Sugar Free right now!



I consciously pull in another lungful of oxygen, realizing that the pain just on the other side of my breastbone is so all consuming it's taken away my body's natural ability to want to live. To even pull in the basic necessity of the air I need to survive.
Deep breath in.
Let it out.
In.
Out.
Breathe, Sela. Just fucking breathe.

The Sugar Rush put me on a HIGH...until I crashed.

Yes, I went back for more Sugar. Sugar Daddy took me on a rollercoaster of emotion that left me with a need to physically harm fictional characters. This doesn’t happen a lot to me. I might dislike a hero or a heroine for making a wrong decision or action but I don’t normally feel a need to physically punch someone. This violence didn’t dissipate and when Sugar Rush landed on my kindle, I wasn’t sure where I was at. I knew things were up in the air. I knew that I was hurting and needed answers and solutions. I hoped that some sense came to Beck, and to some extent Ella…but I just wasn’t sure. There’s a lot to deal with. Loyalty, trust and dedication have been questioned. Who is lying and who is telling the truth? Will I still want to kill?

Would you bloody believe it? I had a smile on my face for 84% of this book. No, it wasn’t all hearts and flowers, but it really made me happy. Beck and Sela…are communicating.

There you go…that’s my review. I don’t want to give you any more because that would spoil the journey.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Ok, I’ll give you this…After 84% all bets were off. I had no friggin idea where this story would go next. My heart stopped…then it kind of started galloping. I had to put my kindle down, close my eyes and take a deep breath. I wanted to scream…NO!!! Why? Why would you do that?

The end came…and I’m back to feeling murderous. But…who…what…where…why???
