Escaping Reality by Lisa Renee Jones


Escaping Reality by Lisa Renee Jones
(The Secret Life of Amy Bensen #1)
 
Book Synopsis:  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 breathe? 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, the ghosts 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?

My review:  5 stars!!!

I bought this book solely based on the reviews.  It was $0.99.  And honestly, you almost can't pass up a book for that price!  So, I take a lot of chances when one-clicking!! 

However, this book was FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!  I loved it.  I mean, couldn't put the book down and stayed up all night reading, loved it.  It ends on a HUGE cliffhanger.  I absolutely can not wait for the next one. 

Okay, so the story goes . . . something happened (we don't really know what yet), but Lara has to leave everything she's ever known.  She has a handler, that she's never met.  But he takes care of everything, and she just up and moves when he says too.  She was finally comfortable in her life and was making friends and working.  Then all of a sudden, her handler writes her a note, and she is instructed to leave immediately.

She waffles a little and doesn't really want to go.  But, in the end, common sense wins and she leaves.  She gets to the airport, with her new identity and checks in for her flight.  The flight is booked and she gets on stand-by.  While she's waiting, she sees Liam.  (Who doesn't love the name Liam?!?!)  She is drawn to him immediately.  But doesn't know why.  Her ticket gets upgraded to first-class, by none other than Liam, and she gets to sit by him the whole flight.  This is bad news for her though.  She's supposed to blend win with her surroundings and remain to herself (for protection from whatever she's running from), but how do you do that when this very attractive man wants to know everything about you?!

Well, I won't go into detail too much from this point, just know that Liam does not like the word "No."  In fact, I'm not sure he even knows what it means.  He is rich, powerful, and extremely good-looking.  He doesn't get told No, very often.  So, he is very unfamiliar with that word.  So, when Amy says No, it doesn't mean much to him.  I wish I had a Liam in my life.  Hehe.

Go, get this book NOW!!  You will not regret it.  It is worth its expense in gold!  Hurry up November 11 (I think that's when the second book is released).

Good luck.  Happy reading!!!
