I've only read one other series that I tore through like this one. Must be something about first person present tense that makes for a gripping story.

The reader is totally in Winter's head. We see all the ins and outs and ups and downs. Twisted. So twisted and deep.

The author does a brilliant job sadistically torturing the heroine. I mean holy crap. Talk about ripping the rug out from under her poor character. Everything is an "all is lost" moment. But it's brilliantly done.

Thankfully she wrote a fourth book.
This novel contains sex and tons of f words. The only draw back, because it was brilliant in every other way.

First of all, there shouldn't be 3 or even 4 books in this series, this could (and should) have been one book. Book 1 and 2 at just over 150 pages were certainly short enough.
While book 1 had real potential with an interesting storyline, likeable characters and witty banter, book 2 started to make me wonder whether I really wanted to carry on with the series, but I am not one for giving up once I've started. So I continued with this one to find out how it all ends. I now wish I hadn't. The main character, Helen/Winter, became more and more annoying, the plot became totally unbelievable and annoying (again) and even the humorous dialogue I had enjoyed in book 1 turned into well, yeah, annoying dribble. And that ending?? Really??
Not worth it, wish I'd given up after the first one.

When I hear "It started out as a lie, but now it's love" I think Freddy Prince Jr in "She's All That". It's a cute story, but my god what the f**k is wrong with Winter (Helen)?! Driving a long distance in the rain with failing eyes!? This girl is insane. It ends sort of sweet, but if you read a little further there is another book, where she doesn't know who Liam is. As much as I liked this book (novella trilogy), It is basically throwing three crazy unlikely circumstances together and calling it normal. ( )

I'd give this 3.5 stars. I mean I liked it but I didn't find it amazing. I was caught off guard a couple of times in this book, which I like. At the end I could've done without Winter's stubbornness, it was too much and started to feel forced. And now I see that there's a book 4.... ( )

This is the last book in the trilogy and it makes me sad. It opens where book two ended...with Grayson confronting Liam and Helen/Winter. I was accused of having too many spoilers in my review of book 2 so all I will say is that this book is just as exciting as the other two but I also think more bitter sweet. We see Helen/Winter get the surgery on her eyes, experience her growth and we are with her as she questions just how strong a person is she. We see her relationship with Liam grow. At certain parts in the story I can't tell you who I am more mad at...Helen/Winter, her family or Liam. Along the way there are twist and turns that you don't see coming and I may be wrong but the ending I think is what you make of it. Meaning it isn't your typical ending all cut and dried, which isn't a bad thing.

Since the author put in the back of her book that she also writes books under the name Nadia Scrieva I can honestly say that Nadia/Loretta just doesn't disappoint her readers. She puts so much of herself in her books and it shows that not only is this a career but her love and passion. I highly recommend all of the Clarity books and also every book that she has written under Nadia Scrieva. You won't be disappointed and you will be a fan for life. ( )
