One Night Promised By: Jodi Ellen Malpas

Once again I find myself completely possessed by a book that left me captivated in a world that only Jodi M. can create. The author doesn't just take you on a journey with her words, she drops you into a maze. A maze that has you spinning in circles once you hit the middle, unsure whether to retrace your steps back to the beginning to recreate the feeling or forge on to the end knowing your heart will probably be shattered into a million pieces. So, I forged on knowing my heart would hurt, but also knowing that when I hit the end I will be left wanting more. For me, whether she releases in 6 months or 6 years, M and Livy’s story will still be in the back of my mind.

M will bring all elements to this story. He’s complex, bossy and anything but what he seems. He barely shows emotions…You will love to hate him… He’s loyal, brooding, and at times the sweetest part of this story…You will hate to love him. Livy has secluded herself in a bubble. Fear of her future turning into her past has made her live a sheltered life. So you think. She may seem naive and sweet, but under all that is a past that toward the end has her showing the strength I wanted more of. These two will have you squeezing your thighs together with the lust that is provoked from the pages. When secrets are unveiled the controlled become the weak and the weak find strength to take control. 

Anticipation, sexual tension, raw feelings these are just a few of the reasons why you will devour her book in a day. She just doesn’t tell a story - she takes you on an adventure letting you explore the emotions she is bringing out and in the end making you feel like you are the one who has fallen in love, fallen in a trance and broken beyond repair.
