Jonas and
Sarah’s addictive love story picks up right where the first book left off,
hurtling to a heart-stopping conclusion that will leave readers breathless and
screaming for the unforgettable final installment of The Club Trilogy.
Sarah:
“My entire life has spiraled into chaos—and yet, all I can think about is my
raging, thumping, insatiable addiction to Jonas’ magical touch. He’s unleashed
an all-consuming hunger inside me that can only be satisfied when Jonas finally
surrenders to me the same way I’ve surrendered to him—mind, body and soul.”
I rub my hands over my face.
Jesus, this woman is my crack.
There’s a beat. I should say it
now. But I want to say it when I can show her and tell her at the same time. I
don’t trust myself with words alone—they’ve been a struggle for me ever since
that whole year as a kid when I didn’t speak at all.
She clears her throat. “How is
it possible every single time gets better and better and better?” she asks.
“Because we were made for each
other,” I say softly. And because I love
you.
Her smile widens. She pushes me
back onto the bed and swiftly straddles my lap. She leans down and kisses me tenderly.
I rest my hands on her thighs.
“Where the hell did you get the idea to sixty-nine me all of a sudden?” I ask.
“That was a pleasant surprise.”
She looks at me sideways. “Jonas, I’ve been reading sex club applications for the past three months, remember? I’ve been stockpiling ideas the whole time.” She winks.
She looks at me sideways. “Jonas, I’ve been reading sex club applications for the past three months, remember? I’ve been stockpiling ideas the whole time.” She winks.
“Oh yeah?” I like where this is
headed. “You’ve picked up an idea or two, have you?” I cross my arms under my
head and gaze up at her.
“Yes, sir,” she says, her eyes
ablaze. She rubs her hands along my biceps. “Maybe just a thing or two . . .
and now that I’ve got the right partner . . . the perfect partner . . .” She
leans down again and kisses me. “My sweet Jonas.”
My heart leaps. “Sarah,” I
breathe. I want to tell her. She deserves to hear it from me.
She whispers right into my ear.
“Madness.”
I exhale and close my eyes.
I know I should be happy to
hear this word—she’s telling me she loves me in the exact way I’ve taught her
to say it to me—the precise way I’ve trained her to say it so as not to scare
me off. Love is a serious mental disease,
I explained to her, over and over, quoting Plato—pointedly avoiding the
more pedantic but direct route to the same message. I glance away, trying to
collect my thoughts. I feel like I’m failing her with all my secret codes.
“Oh,
Jonas.” She leans down and peppers my entire face with soft kisses—the thing
she does that makes me want to crawl into her arms and cry like a baby. “Don’t
think so much. Thinking is the enemy.”
The trip to Belize was everything Jonas hoped for. Sarah is now his completely and trust is finally part of their relationship.
Protecting her from the owners of the Club is not going to be easy. Sarah refuses to believe she is really in danger and Jonas is losing his mind trying to convince without scaring her half to death.
There is such complexity in Jonas' character. Little by little we begin to understand him and the traumas (plural!) he experienced that shaped him into the man he is today. It is interesting to note his relationship with Josh, his twin. You immediately feel how protective Josh is of Jonas. He goes out of his way to make Jonas feel secure in the knowledge that he has his back. Whatever Jonas needs from him, he is willing to provide in order to make Jonas feel in control. The traumas experienced by Jonas are shared by Josh, even though he was not there when their mother was killed. Whether it is the "twin connection" or just the fact these brothers were always very close, Josh is the one that always is there to protect Jonas from spiraling out of control.
The end of this book is a cliffhanger. It is heart stopping, but be assured - book 3 is to publish shortly so do not fear. We will get to find out what happens and won't have to hold on for months.

The Club (The Club Series Book #1)
Release Day: January 5, 2015
When
playboy businessman Jonas Faraday receives a private note from the anonymous
intake agent assigned to process his online application to an exclusive club,
he becomes obsessed with finding her and giving her the satisfaction she claims
has always eluded her, in order to fulfill his own desperate need for
redemption.
Sarah: “When I read Jonas Faraday’s brutally honest
personal message on his application to The Club—I practically climaxed at my
desk. I’m an idiot to risk losing my job but I couldn’t resist contacting him.
I knew my confession would be like dangling an irresistible carrot in front of
his nose—but never in a million years did I think he’d actually hunt me down.”
Jonas: “I was shocked to get my intake agent’s
email—I’d attached that note to my application on a whim, never expecting a
reply from an actual person, let alone a reply as mind blowing as that. Her
message was so alluring, so irresistible, I’ve been spiraling into a
full-blown obsession ever since I got it. What’s her name? What does she look
like? Finding her is my
top priority.”
In The Club, what
starts out as an innocent exploration of attraction quickly spirals into a
steamy story of unbridled passion, obsession, heartbreak, and, ultimately,
redemption
