Synopsis:
Jonas and Sarah’s addictive love story picks up right where the first book left off, hurtling to a heart-stopping conclusion that will leave readers breathless and screaming for the unforgettable final installment of The Club Trilogy.

Sarah: “My entire life has spiraled into chaos—and yet, all I can think about is my raging, thumping, insatiable addiction to Jonas’ magical touch. He’s unleashed an all-consuming hunger inside me that can only be satisfied when Jonas finally surrenders to me the same way I’ve surrendered to him—mind, body and soul.”

Excerpt:
I turn onto my opposite side and face him. “Before you, I thought there was something wrong with me. I thought I was born without some magic button everyone else has.”
He inhales deeply, like he’s trying to calm himself. He brushes a hair away from my face. But he doesn’t speak.
“And now look at me. I’m kicking ass and taking names—I’m a sexual superhero.”
He puts on a low movie-announcer voice. “They call her . . . Orgasma.” He smiles and nuzzles his nose into mine. “Orgasma the All-Powerful.”
I mimic his announcer voice. “Able to leap tall cocks in a single bound.”
“No.” He’s stern. “Able to leap one and only one tall cock in a single bound. Only mine.”
“Well, of course.” I roll my eyes. “That’s the biggest ‘duh’ of the century, Jonas.”
He laughs. He nuzzles my nose again.
“You big dummy,” I add.
 He shoots me a crooked half-smile. “I just wanted to be clear about that.”
“Got it.”
We lie in the dark, staring at each other for a moment. I can’t remember ever feeling this happy before.
“Thank you,” I say simply. “Thank you for helping me discover my magic button. I don’t feel like I’m defective anymore. I feel powerful.”
He kisses me gently. “You are powerful.”
“I had no idea sex could feel so good. You really are good at this.”
“No, I’m fucking awesome at this, I told you.” He chuckles. “A guy can read about this stuff all he wants, but if he doesn’t have some God-given talent to start with, it’s pointless. It’s like being a musician—you can be classically trained to play all the right notes, but no one can teach you to feel the music with your soul. Muddy Waters felt the music. Bob Dylan felt the music. No one can learn how to do that—it’s true artistry.”
“Ah, so you’re a sexual arteest, are you?”
He squeezes me. “I am. And you’re my canvas.” He kisses my neck and grabs my ass at the same time.
“I’ll be your canvas any time, big boy.”

REVIEW:
Another great story in this trilogy; I loved it, but not as much as the first story.

Jonas is still being Jonas, quoting Plato all over the place and is very adamant about keeping Sarah safe while trying to come up with a plan to bring The Club down. Sarah is also doing her best trying to get back on track with her classes, made a bit harder since Jonas is glued to her side 24/7.

I got a kick out of the results of the plan that Jonas came up with, Sarah definitely handled it better than he ever could, but he should have just listened to Josh from the start (side note: I hope there might be a future book on Josh and Kat, there could be something more with those two).

The ending is a shock, but it was also the catalyst to propel Jonas to say the phrase he hasn't said since he was 7. I can't wait to read the last book and find out how everything will play out.

RATING

ARC provided in exchange for honest review.


Title:   The Club (The Club Series Book #1)
Author:   Lauren Rowe
Genre:   Contemporary Erotic Romance
Release Day:   January 5, 2015

Synopsis:
When playboy businessman Jonas Faraday receives a private note from the anonymous intake agent assigned to process his online application to an exclusive club, he becomes obsessed with finding her and giving her the satisfaction she claims has always eluded her, in order to fulfill his own desperate need for redemption.

Sarah: “When I read Jonas Faraday’s brutally honest personal message on his application to The Club—I practically climaxed at my desk. I’m an idiot to risk losing my job but I couldn’t resist contacting him. I knew my confession would be like dangling an irresistible carrot in front of his nose—but never in a million years did I think he’d actually hunt me down.”

Jonas: “I was shocked to get my intake agent’s email—I’d attached that note to my application on a whim, never expecting a reply from an actual person, let alone a reply as mind blowing as that. Her message was so alluring, so irresistible, I’ve been spiraling into a full-blown obsession ever since I got it. What’s her name? What does she look like? Finding her is my top priority.”

In The Club, what starts out as an innocent exploration of attraction quickly spirals into a steamy story of unbridled passion, obsession, heartbreak, and, ultimately, redemption.
