Escaping Reality by Lisa Renee Jones ~ ARC review and giveaway

This is Lisa Renee Jones's first New Adult release.

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 breath? 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 down, the ghost’s 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?

RELEASE DATE: July 22nd!!!

My Thoughts:

I loved it. Oh the intrigue, the mystery, the steamy scenes! This is a book meant for adults!

I am a huge Lisa Renee Jones fan. I have If I Were You and Being Me and I have really liked that series so far. I thought this book was even better. ;-)

Amy is such a mystery. She is running from someone for some reason but none of that is clear. In true LRJ fashion, she'll keep us guessing until she's ready to reveal everything to us.

Amy has a guardian angel of sorts that always helps her get away. She only knows him by the tattoo that he has on his hand. When he leaves her messages, he always marks them with a symbol. Things go awry this time around and everything feels wrong.  
She meets Liam on a plane while fleeing from the mysterious bad guys. They seem to have an instantaneous chemistry. But is anything what it seems? Who can she really trust when she isn't even sure that she knows who she really is anymore.

I recommend this to everyone who likes their books with a lot of sizzle and an extra heaping of suspense too! There is no way to be bored with this one! You will be on the edge of your seat. I can not wait to get my hands on the next book.

I received an ecopy in exchange for my honest opinion. If I haven't already spelled it out, It was a fantastically compelling, sizzling, exciting, thrill ride of a romance and I loved every page! ;-)
