My eyes were more gray than blue, without the depth of Marj's dark-brown ones that seemed to look straight into a person's soul.

Paris, the most romantic city on earth, is a place of second honeymoons and newly discovered passions.In fact, I think the book ends without her having any clue her best friend and brother are sleeping together. Okay, we just had sex and she's, like, totally still in my head and there's the whole walls situation so we better have sex once more and this time it is so going to work. There are some legal inaccuracies that really bothered me since I’ve been through what Jade has been through.

There is more than one instance in this book where Jade is not exactly into having sex with Talon, but he doesn't listen to her protests and eventually "convinces" her to go along with him, which she does in almost every instance. I was trapped in a window seat, and the elderly couple sitting with me didn't seem in any hurry to get moving. Let me say as a lesbian - fucking OUCH, use some lube or do some foreplay to get her wet or something! Talon is mentally distraught from a childhood tragedy, and I like the tortured hero angle, but it all seemed contrived. The character of Talon is a deep conflicted hurting man who is desperate for release from his anguish.And Talon was "abrading the anterior of [her] pussy [with his fingers]" at one point (that is a direct quote). And speaking of repetition you will never be allowed to forget that Talon doesn't want anyone to get close to him because he has walls and no one can break down those walls because those walls are never coming down because walls are meant to keep people out and stuff because walls. Colin and I were supposed to be on our honeymoon right now, but him leaving me at the altar had changed those plans.

This is a very mature adult read so be aware that this story is loaded with a lots of erotica sex that will be all over the place for these two. And I can't really blame my friend, because she does know that I love messed up books (the more messed up, the better - usually), and the book is set on the western slope of Colorado, an area of the state for which I will always hold a fondness. What was Talon's childhood secret that it seemed that he was always struggling so hard with especially when he was with Jade? The passion does come a bit out of left field and I get we all want a little of that, but boy does it go on.I've been hearing about this book for quite some time so I decided to try it but it just didn't live up to expectations.
