I recently posted the link to this book to my Facebook blog page as a freebie. I made a comment about hearing that this was a really good series, but I hadn't read it because the cover model really creeped me out. I can't put my finger on it, but there is just something about him that's disturbing. So I had shied away from starting this series for that reason alone. The saying don't judge a book by it's cover holds true in this case. I loved it! Such a great read and I give it a solid 4 Stars. That being said, this brings up a good point of discussion on cover models and cover design. I don't get this cover at all and really feel like it would hold a lot of readers, like myself, from starting this series. It looks really juvenile and I understand the whole post-it now that I've read the book, but I still think there could have been a better representation. The model almost looks (Cover Your Eyes Mom) in mid orgasm or something, and looking at the covers of the next two books in the series they don't look much better.
As far as the story it was very well written and very enjoyable. The characters are likeable and the plot twists, although at times a little predictable, are very good. I would totally recommend checking this book out. I'm going to start book 2 in the series and FYI Book 3 is out now too. So you can start with Crush and read the series too completion.
