Scandalized by Ivy Owens: Review

Sometimes you run across a book that completely guts you. When I finished reading this book for review I had tears running and could not even think of what to say.

An amazing, profound, and intense love story that is not only deeply hot with sexual connection but it was soul-wrenching too. I fell head over heels for this book. Read on for my thoughts and review

OVERVIEW:
Exhausted and on deadline with a story that could make or break her career, investigative journalist Georgia Ross is on the verge of a meltdown when a canceled flight leaves her stuck in the airport overnight. But when a familiar face appears—the older brother of her childhood friend—and offers help, Gigi seems to have caught a break.

Alec Kim is handsome, humble, and kind—exactly the sort of man that Gigi has forgotten existed after her own painful heartbreaks. An evening of reconnection followed by a night of no-strings-attached passion with Alec feels like a gift—that is until Gigi finally realizes that their childhood connection isn’t the only reason he seems so familiar to her.

Alec is determined to prove to Gigi that he is truly the man she thinks he is, even if it means coming clean about his fame—and his family’s connection to the story Gigi’s been working so hard to break. But as their feelings for each other grow deeper, Gigi and Alec must navigate a new reality…one where both of their hard-won careers are put directly in the path of an international scandal.

Scandalized by Ivy Owens Review

This book was a shocker! I was sooo not expecting this! I sat down for a lovely read and ended up speechless, emotional, and a touch overwhelmed.

I love her writing! A depth of feeling grabs you deep in your soul. If only we could all experience this intense connection to our soulmate.

The sex is amazing with the awareness and feelings laid out for all to witness. Damn, I feel that passion and longing deep inside. Even when the scenes were a touch frantic, the intensity and awareness of their connection was intense.

One reviewer said that this book is pure magic, and she is not wrong. Owens kills us with her raw, intense writing that doesn’t let you go. I simply could not stop reading!

And they classify this as a rom-com… That category does not give this book justice. Owens poured her heart out for us. Plus, she gave us an epilogue too. Thank goodness!

If I could give it 10 stars I would! Grab this awesome book! I know you will love it too.

5 Flipping STARS!
