Review: Escaping Reality (The Secret Life Of Amy Bensen, #1) by Lisa Renee Jones

*****5 Stars*****
 

Well, this book certainly gets off to a very fast paced start and I was immediately drawn into the story.
"Amy" is running, absolutely terrified but also completely in the dark. Her mind seems to have shut down into self-protection mode with few memories surfacing and when that inclusive memory is called up by a word or situation, she finds herself once more in total darkness.
Forced to run yet again, Amy only has the pyramid sign to guide her. Her path crosses with the overwhelmingly, powerful and successful Liam but she knows that she just can't risk anyone else getting hurt. Besides which, she's gotten used to being alone.
Liam, however, is not easily deterred and sweeps in, offering Amy the opportunity to grasp on to what could be her own Prince Charming crossed with a super sexy dominant billionaire.
But of course things aren't always that simple. Can Amy trust anyone at all? Her new boss? Her new friend? Her neighbour? Or even the man who keeps her safe from Godzilla?
This book is well written and flows quickly.
As it is book #1 in the series, it has far more answers that questions but it works that way. It's setting you up for book #2 which I can't wait to get my hands on!

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 breathe? 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, the ghosts 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?
