review 1: This book this book this book. I'm blaming the author for being a sneaky little genius. Why?Because this is a book that you're not supposed to like... It's crazy and half the time you're just left there wondering what to think about what's happening. But it's so intriguing and interesting that you want to read more and more. And more importantly its so damn HOT, that's what got me really. I usually get bored when I keep seeing the same scenes but this book just throws you for a loop. So yes, even if the whole scientific part is sometimes annoying I still loved it. And Jeremy is one HOT MOFO!
review 2: OverviewThe second in the intensely erotic Avalon series that started with Destined to Play. Perfect for anyone who was seduced by 50 Shades of Grey.Psychologist... more Alexandra Blake has been awakened sexually by her lover, Jeremy Quinn. Their erotic journey has seen Alexandra explore her innermost sexual fantasies and pushed her boundaries to their very limit.Her world is plunged into uncertainty when she is abducted in London and Alexandra finds herself caught up in a dangerous game being played out in the shadows. Her captors want to use her to explore the darkest enigma of female sexuality and Alexandra is powerless to escape—but does she even want to? How far will Alexandra be willing to go to satisfy her curiosity and her desires? Is this a game gone too far, or is there still everything to play for. . . .Destined to Feel is the second book in the Avalon trilogy exploring the intricate relationships between trust and betrayal, desire and love, risk . . . and reward. If you liked 50 Shades of Grey, you will love Destined to Feel.My ThoughtsI don't know how to say this, cause i really didn't want it to be the case, but i couldn't wait for the book to be finished, and that's not in a good way.So, as we know from the end of Book 1, Alex and Jeremy have figured out that they can make their relationship work because of circumstances in their lives, and it's all on an upswing right? Alex and her husband have an agreement now because we know what his inclinations are and things seem to be smelling of roses.Of course that means that the anxiety and hints that we got at the end of book 1 were going to come true. One of the best parts that i found from the first installment was the tail end, where they imply that there's a lot going on behind the scenes to all this drug development and that Alex's life and that of her family may be at risk. I liked that there was a hint of mystery and trouble in the background. Well that comes out to us in full force at the onset of this story.Alex is on her way to a forum with all of the people involved in the development of the depression drug when she's intercepted by 2 folks posing as her drivers and she's 'kidnapped' and taken to places unknown. She's medicated, tied up, stuffed in a suitcase and all this happens without anyone else knowing about it. interesting right?What i didn't quite understand though is how she was so calm throughout all this stuff and how she was so quick to agree to what they were asking her to do and believe what they said about Jeremy. Personally, i got the sense from the first book that she thought a LOT more about things and didn't necessarily trust what was in front of her but all that kind of fell to the way side. There was also a lot of stuff that was far fetched that i really wasn't buying into it.Then we can take a look at the sensual nature of this book. where we had started on this journey with a steamy romance between Jeremy and Alex, where we got present day accounts as well as those hot and heavy flashbacks, everything in this book was an experiment. nothing was real, there was no feeling behind it, just clinical stuff and human responses. i felt like it was just lacking a real connection that i wanted to get.We also didn't really get to know ANYONE in this book besides those that we knew already. there were a few doctors and a few folks that Jeremy knew that we saw from time to time, but no real deep insight into them, their relationships and their roles.The ending of this installment was also quite typical and expected, especially since we know that it's a trilogy, although i was waiting for a bit more of an exciting jump off to keep us on the edge of our seat until the next book was available. (in this case it's out already so if i choose to finish the trilogy, i have it already).So, my questions1) what's going to happen to Alex and Jeremy?2) What's going to happen with the Xsade folks ?3) will Alex's kids get kidnapped?4) who else is a traitor?5) should i even bother reading the finale to the trilogy? less
