Backlash by Geneva Lee is now live!
Rivals #2
She's a wildfire. He lit the match...
I thought my life was hell until the devil walked through my door. Sterling isn't the boy who stole my heart anymore. He's cunning, manipulative, and dangerous--so why does my body ache for his touch?
I thought I could trust him. I should have known better. He's broken my heart twice. Now there's nothing left to break. Because I'm not the girl he fell for or the woman he used. He thought he could play me. He thought he could hurt me. But I'm a survivor, and while I might respond to every stolen kiss, every forbidden moment, there's one piece of me he'll never touch. I sold my soul to protect it, and no one can ever learn the truth--not even Sterling Ford.
****
I never thought I'd find myself begging for Adair's forgiveness. But she belongs to me. She always has and she always will. No matter how hard she tries to rewrite history.
It's too late to change who we've become. Maybe nothing can save us now. Maybe nothing ever could. I built my fortune with blood, fueled by lies, and soon my past will catch up with both of us. I can't protect her from the man I've become, and no one can save me from the storm that's coming--not even Adair MacLaine.
New York Times bestselling author Geneva Lee delivers with the second book in the Rivals series, an emotional roller coaster that'll leave you begging for more!

MY REVIEW
Not a whole lot of reveals happened, but he was a bit more forthcoming, and that pacified her a bit, then the cliffhanger happened, and I was once again left with lots of questions and few of my previous ones answered.
The story weaves back and forth between past and present nearly every chapter, and I have to admit it was a bit discombobulating for me as I was reading, to be in the present in one chapter, then hop back to the past immediately with the next chapter. I like how much we got of their backstory in those past chapters, I just wish the switching was not every other chapter, it was a bit much for me.
So why 3.5 stars? Well, as I said, I was frustrated with Adair's push and pull. I didn't like so much back and forth in the timelines, and I can also say that I didn't really connect very strongly with either Sterling or Adair. I don't dislike them, I'm just waiting until I can really fall for them. Hopefully in the next installment, I'll feel a stronger connection with them, I will get more answers than questions, and that the weaving back and forth is not so often.
