Don't Close Your Eyes by Lynessa James
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book was given to me as an ARC for an honest review.
This author is new to me; I had no preconceived opinions about the book. I read the blurb, and then dived right in.
The writing in this book is totally unique to me.
It starts with a prologue that sets the tone for the book, moves to the main characters point of view in the middle and comes full circle in the end. I loved it!
You learn about Kliev King, a prominent businessman with a double life, a sad and depressing past and a secret he holds. He has a chance encounter with a “ginger” haired beauty in his office elevator. He lets her slip away but is drawn to her “light” which is such a contrast to his “dark heart”. He becomes obsessed.
Kinsley James, up and coming track star, waitress and all around physically fit cutie, works at a bar paying her way through college for her masters, crushes on her best friends brother and loves life.
This is a story you can savor, like a fine glass of wine. One that builds as it goes and draws you in, so you have to keep reading. The plot twists and the turns the author writes are amazing. It kept me engaged and wanting to find out more.
The end blew me away. Never did I see that happening. I can’t wait to read the next installment. A series I will follow, like bread crumbs, until the end.
