I have to say I have a huge fan of this author. I have read so many of her books in the past with her Crossfire series. Bared to You was amazing and I was addicted!
But it has been a few years since I picked up a book by her and when I heard that she is doing a spin-off in the Crossfire arena, I was all over it!
The first book of a two-book series is coming out in March. I am thrilled to be able to review it and share some thoughts with you below. Check it out!
So Close by Sylvia Day
Publisher : Ronin House (March 28, 2023)
ISBN-13 : 978-1626500037
OVERVIEW:
Widower Kane Black is still ruinously married to his late wife, Lily. Grief has hollowed him . . . until he sees a woman with his wife’s inimitable beauty on the streets of Manhattan. He whisks her up to his towering penthouse, protectively under guard, nestling her in dark opulence where Lily’s memory is a possessive, beguiling force.
Aliyah, Kane’s mother, deals in science. There are too many questions, too few answers, and too much at stake. Lily has dangerous control over Kane and there can be only one queen on the throne.
Amy, Kane’s sister-in-law, has been bloodied by deceit and betrayal, and she’s devolving into murderous rage. She’s paid too high a price and now intends to claim what she’s owed.
Three women, linked by buried secrets, circle the man who unquestioningly accepts the return of his beloved long-dead wife. Kane is happier than he’s ever been, and he’ll do anything to stay that way.
So Close by Sylvia Day Review
This book!! OMG. I am not sure where to start.
This story is so worth waiting for! Twists and turns, weaving the truth and lies in a tangled web. Impassioned and freaking hot! How does that grab you?
This book has everything you can think of in it. Amazing characterization with characters you want to love and those you love to hate. Day balances good with evil and sometimes you cannot tell who is good, but you can definitely see some evil going on!
I went through so many emotions with this one. Painful heartache; intense steam and passion with descriptions that take your breath away. You feel like you are right inside the pages with them. Happiness and joy; fear, desperation, and uncertainty. She grabs you and throws some huge unexpected twists your way!
I could sit here and continue to gush, but let me say that if you have missed the Crossfire vibe, this book is fire! Day captures the reader completely with her impassioned writing that spins you right into the obsessive compulsion of this family tree!
I cannot wait for book two!
