happy saturday all hope you are all having a wonderful weekend

Welcome to a humid Saturday here in good ole Saskatchewan. After a week of rain it is nice to have the humidity and the heat of a sunny day. So today is the review for IF I WERE YOU ,by Lisa Renee Jones. The first of the inside out series


BOOK BLURB

The steamy first installment in the Inside Out erotic romance series by Lisa Renee Jones, in the bestselling tradition of Fifty Shades of Grey.
When Sara McMillan finds a stack of journals in a storage unit, she's shocked and enthralled by the erotic life the writer led. Unable to stop reading, she vicariously lives out dark fantasies through Rebecca, the writer--until the terrifying final entry.

Certain something sinister has happened, Sara sets out to discover the facts, immersing herself in Rebecca's life. Soon she's working at the art gallery Rebecca worked at and meeting Rebecca's friends. Finding herself drawn to two dangerously sexy men, the manager of the gallery and a famed artist, Sara realizes she's going down the same path Rebecca took. But with the promise of her dark needs being met by a man with confident good looks and a desire for control, she's not sure anything else matters. Just the burn for more.


MY REVIEW
  This is the first installment in the Inside out series.  Meet Sara MacMillan a high school teacher. Who finds the journals of a woman named Rebecca in a storage unit. When she starts reading them Sara is transported into Rebecca's world and her dark fantasies.
  Something bad happens and Sara sets out to find out what happened to Rebecca, she works and goes to all the places Rebecca was and even started working at the same art gallery . She is caught between to hot alpha men. Will she realize her own needs with this dark man and will she find the answers she is looking for.

  They say that this book is written in the tradition of fifty shades. Well yes and now. If I were you is a much more intense read for me. You get suckered in from the first page. Yes it is dark and you do have Dominance but you don't have the crap in between like fifty shades. As fifty shades drove me crazy. IF I WERE YOU  had me turning page after page well into the night.
  The characters in the book did kinda have the same characteristics of the other book. Sara seemed shy, but also strong . As she is following  the clues in the journals to find out what happened to Rebecca. Mark, haven't decided about him yet, he could end up a good guy or a bad guy, Sara can't make her mind up about him. She is seeing him through the words that Rebecca put down on paper. Also that every run in she had with him has been very weird and dangerous.  Then there is Chris, I still haven't made my mind up about him either. He has a darkness around him. The tastes he has run deeper then any of them realize. But no one really knows for sure what is up with this man.
  Lisa takes these characters to places that make you go oooh or wow. They are complex characters with lots of secrets and baggage. You go from yes to no to oh my god in the turn of a page. Lisa can take you to the heights of happiness and then to the depths of holy hell.
   Like I said before this is one intense book, Lisa is an excellent writer. This series should be on your tbr list. You will not be disappointed, The sex in this book is not just hot it is Scorching. You will be panting for more and more as you read. This is a good read for those who like fifty shades. This book will blow that book out of the water. So much more intrique and mystery along with the sex.  There is just one down fall in this book , big cliff hanger . So when you get this book try and get the rest of the books so you can book binge . Like I will be doing. So if you want a great book with hot alpha men, a shy woman coming into her own. And you like books along the lines of fsog and bared to you . Check out these books , so great for those hot sultry nights .
