BEWARE!!!! This dark series (well… “duet” – and it’s complete!) will make you crazy with book-delight and total throw-your-ereader frustration (my fellow readers are losing their minds right now over it, in fact).
Jean: My friend is freaking it about Beware (Shanora Williams). Has anyone here read it?
Ela: That sounds not so bad Jean??? Looks like Tessa 5-star’d it….
Tessa: Beware is on sale by Shanora Williams. It’s soooo good, gut wrenching, dangerous and just great… A big recommendation from me. …I LOVED Beware. Serious adoration for that one. I need to read the second one, but that first book side swiped me big time.
Jean: Think I’m gonna read Beware based on Tessa’s rec. My friend is just about done the 2nd book and she loves it!
Ela: Beware is awesome sauce!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jean: I am loving Beware! Its a total pageturner!
Ela: OMG BEWARE KIND OF REMINDS ME OF RAW, ALTHOUGH RAW WAS WAY MORE MESSED UP (F WORD NEEDED)!!!!!!!!!!! I SWEAR IF THIS BOOK DIDN’T HAVE A SEQUEL I’D KICK SOMEBODY OR SOMEONE HARD! …“It’s all supposed to be over. Right?” Beware 2: The Comeback by Shanora Williams Oh it better be what the the title hints at!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tessa: Ela… If the second book hadn’t been out, I’d have told you don’t read it. When I read it, there wasn’t going to be a second book. Total standalone instead. I read Raw at the same time and I got a bigger jolt by Beware. I went into denial, honestly. I was just saying, “Nope. There will be a book two. Just, nope.” *sighs* Such a good book.
Ela: I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT LEAST RAW’S ENDING MADE SENSE IT WAS A TOTAL “LOSS”….AND IT WILL BE HAVING A SEQUEL. SAME THING GOES FOR SORDID PROMISE, I DIDN’T THINK IT NEEDED A SEQUEL BUT ALAS IS GETTING ONE….OH WELL, THEY BETTER BE GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I PROBABLY WOULD’VE GONE INTO DENIAL WITH YOU!
Jean: You sure are screaming a lot today Ela! Lol!
Maryse: *snort* 😛
Jen C: gotta add my 2 cents – read BEWARE by Shanora Williams a while ago and it was so good! Messed up crazy good and really addictive!
Jean: Oh and I just finished Beware and loved it! So happy the 2nd book is out already! Jumping right into it!
Tessa: Beware is a two book series. Originally it was a standalone, but she wrote the second due to MAJOR requests. … Beware did NOT have a book two until everyone demanded it due to that ending. You remember me talking about a book that I loved, but I was in denial about the ending, that I wanted a book two? THAT BOOK!
Jean: Loving Beware 2 The Comeback….maybe even more than Beware! Great series!!!!!!
About book #1:
Ace is bad. Very bad.
After losing my brother, I know I should stay away. So why can’t I? He’s irresistible. He’s confident. He’s amazing… but he’s dangerous. He was there the night my brother was murdered. He watched it all go down. I should stay away. The things I saw weren’t acceptable. I should want Ace as far away from me as possible—I should consider him a monster and a threat—but when my life is at stake I know I no longer have a choice of the matter. He’s the only one that can protect me.
He’s done what he can to keep me out of danger, but it’s not enough. I need answers. I need the truth. He refuses to give it to me, and because of that I don’t trust him. He refuses to tell me what really happened and to just forget about it but I refuse. I won’t back down until I get answers. But there’s one thing wrong with getting too many answers. It leads to lies. It leads to trouble. It leads to danger. But worst of all, it leads to me falling deeply and madly in love with him. I’ve gotta be out of my mind.
***
London Stallone hasn’t always had the perfect life, but she did have the perfect older brother. He did everything for her. He took care of her when no one else would. He’s always been the shoulder she could lean on, but when he ends up murdered, things turn for the worst. London soon demands answers, and the first person she runs to is her brother’s co-worker and good friend, Donovan “Ace” Crow. Ace isn’t the ordinary guy. He doesn’t come equipped with flowers and chocolate. He doesn’t hand out smiles and hugs to every female he meets. He’s strict and only about business, and London believes he’s a part of the reason her brother was murdered.
Soon, after finding out life-threatening news, it leads to something Ace never thought he’d have to do for anyone. Protect her.
Although he doesn’t want her to get hurt, it doesn’t stop him from being selfish or bitter. He’s promised to protect her, but has he done enough ? Has he sacrificed everything in order to keep London out of harms way? Sometimes love can get in the way of your priorities. And sometimes love can easily become your enemy—your worst nightmare. It can destroy you.
This is a story full of dishonesty. Disloyalty. Broken hearts. Pain. Suffering. Lies. Destruction. This isn’t a fairytale love story. This is real. And it just might break you. You’ve been warned…
BEWARE.
