review 1: FIRST LET ME SAY THE COVER DISPLAYED HERE HAS BEEN CHANGED, FOR THE BETTER. WHILE ON AMAZON I DISCOVER THIS BOOK (WITH A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT COVER). I ORIGINALLY TURNED AWAY FROM THIS BOOK BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT BOXING. DUH! SILLY ME! I SELECT THIS BOOK (WITH THE NEW COVER)TO GO ON MY CURRENTLY READING CHOICE, WELL UP POPS THE COVER YOU SEE HERE (ON GOODREADS). NOT ABOUT BOXING AT ALL. IT IS A SUSPENSE-THRILLER-ROMANCE, MY KIND OF BOOK. THE BOOK STARTED OUT OK I HAD GUESSED WHO THE BAD GUYS WERE EARLY ON, I WAS RIGHT TOO. THE ROMANCE WAS VERY LITTLE, NO WHOO-HOO! HERE. THE SUSPENSE AND KILLING WAS GROSS, BUT I LIKE GROSS. THE LAST ABOUT 35% OF THE BOOK GOT A CASE OF THE D.U.M.B.S. BIG TIME, HOW THE MAIN FEMALE & MALE BECAME DUMB AND DUMMMM-MMBER AS I READ ALONG.... more LIVVIE DID TWO STUPID MOVES I JUST COULDN'T BELIEVE, (GO AHEAD OPEN THE DOOR WITHOUT LOOKING FIRST). SHE DID THIS TWICE, KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME SHE DID IT. THIS WAS JUST A BIT TOO MUCH FOR ME, WHAT STARTED OUT AS A PRETTY GOOD THRILLER JUST SORT TO PETERED OUT LIKE A BALLOON LEAKIN' AIR. BUT THE NEW COVER LOOKS GOOD THOUGH, CHECK IT OUT ON AMAZON.
review 2: Even though this story mainly takes place where the first book did and Jackson(hero) and Olivia(heroine) were childhood friends of Ben, from the first book, this book did a 180 from the first story. This book suffered from to many different plots and the entering in of the paranormal aspect both confused and drug the story line down. Other Ben I never came to care for any of the characters, which is sad because the first book blew me away. I still highly recommend reading the first book. less
