Daca sunteti pasionati de povestile ale caror fir narativ nu au fost alterate de catre adaptarile editurilor de pe la noi, atunci vreau sa va recomand o serie ce pe mine m-a tinut cu sufletul la gura de la prima pagina pana la ultima.

Seria “Love me with lies” de Tarryn Fisher mi-a fost recomandata de o prietena imediat ce am terminat “Verity” de Colleen Hoover, a carei recenzie o gasiti AICI. Nu am indraznit sa ma apuc imediat de ea pentru ca nu eram in starea necesara sa trec din nou prin aceasi tornada de emotii, asa ca am pastrat-o aproape si cu prima ocazie cand m-am simtit in stare, m-am si aventurat.

Scriu despre seria asta in recomandari pentru ca desi am terminat-o in intregime acum ceva vreme, simt ca nu mai am energie sa scriu recenziile pe rand, plus ca vad ca recenziile cartilor straine nu prea prind.

Inainte sa trecem la descrierea editurilor, trebuie sa mentionez ca seria aceasta este formata din trei volume si desi sunt narate de personaje diferite, firul evenimentelor are continuitate pe parcursul lor.

The Opportunist

“Olivia Kaspen has just discovered that her ex-boyfriend, Caleb Drake, has lost his memory. With an already lousy reputation for taking advantage of situations, Olivia must decide how far she is willing to go to get Caleb back. Wrestling to keep her true identity and their sordid past under wraps, Olivia’s greatest obstacle is Caleb’s wicked, new girlfriend; Leah Smith.

It is a race to the finish as these two vipers engage in a vicious tug of war to possess a man who no longer remembers them. But, soon enough Olivia must face the consequences of her lies, and in the process discover that sometimes love falls short of redemption.”

Dirty Red

“Dear Opportunist,

You thought you could take him from me, but you lost. Now, that he’s mine I’ll do anything to keep him. Do you doubt me? I have everything that was supposed to be yours. In case you were wondering; he doesn’t ever think about you anymore. I won’t let him go….ever.

Dirty Red

Leah Smith finally has everything she has ever wanted. Except she doesn’t. Her marriage feels more like a loan than a lifelong commitment, and the image she has worked so hard to build is fraying before her eyes. With a new role and a past full of secrets, Leah must decide how far she is willing to go to keep what she has stolen.”

Thief

“Note to Self

Love is patient; love is kind.
Love doesn’t boast or brag.
There’s no arrogance in love;
it’s never rude, crude, or indecent-it’s not self absorbed.
Love isn’t easily upset.
Love doesn’t tally wrongs.
Love trusts, hopes, and endures no matter what.
Love will never become obsolete.
I’ll fight for her.

Thief

Caleb Drake never got over his first love. Not when he got married. Not when she got married. When life suddenly comes full circle Caleb must decide how far he is willing to go to get the aloof and alluring Olivia Kaspen back. But for every action in life there is a consequence, and soon Caleb finds out that sometimes love comes at an unbearably high price.”

Cartile nu au mai mult de 300 de pagini fiecare si desi sunt destul de subtirele, sunt extrem de intense iar povestea unica, este foarte superb construita. Mi-au placut enorm si da, au un iz de “Verity”, mai ales volumul doi, punctul de vedere al personajului Leah este creat intr-o maniera similara, fapt care a fost si mai socant cand am vazut ca Tarryn Fisher este prietena apropiata a lui Colleen Hoover.

Seria este plina de twist-uri atent concepute astfel incat sa nu para cliseice si fara fond. Perspectiva fiecarui personaj are grija sa explice fiacere situatie, ele avand un motiv bineintemeiat astfel ca la final ajungi sa indragesti toate cele trei personaje, “uitand” de greselile lor.

Este o serie extraordinara, merita parcursa si inteleasa, analizata si iubita de la inceput pana la final si ce este cel mai important, rabdarea, ai nevoie de rabdare sa intelegi fiacer personaj si sa nu te grabesti cu concluziile si judecata.
