REVIEW TOUR: The Fall of Troy

All I can say is that I cannot recommend The Fall of Troy by Dr Rebecca Sharp enough!  It is truly amazing and deserves to be read!  And the cover?  Isn't it GORGEOUS?

THE FALL OF TROY

The Odyssey Duet #1

Author: Dr. Rebecca Sharp

Release Date: May 21^s

Blurb

Love is angry. Love is blind.

Love is envious and loathful.

And I loathed Léo Baudin. My new art professor. My enemy.

I didn’t move to Rhode Island for this. I came to forget the Troian Milanovic I’d left behind and start fresh where the damage and betrayal couldn’t follow.

But Professor Baudin wouldn’t let me.

Cold. Caustic. Captivating. He didn’t just push my buttons…

He lit them all up with the indifferent smirk of an aristocratic French asshole.

But how much I loathed him only made my need for him stronger.

To have him would be either victory or loss. There would be no compromise.

To have him would be war.

So I fought back.

But I was Troy. And he was the wooden horse, full of dangerous secrets I never saw coming.

I was the one who invited him inside my walls, celebrating without seeing through his disguise.

And under the cover of darkness, he laid siege to my body, my mind, and finally, my heart.

The first may be a myth, but this time the history books would show that if Troy fell, it was with her all.

MY REVIEW

Sacre bleu! I am emotionally wrung out.

“Aux objets répugnants nous trouvons des appas.” In the things we loathe become the things we love.

And, oh, did I hate this book! From beginning to end was an emotional roller-coaster the likes of which I have never experienced before. From the highest of highs to the lowest of lows, this author punished me with the passion and the devastation between Leo and Troian but that is exactly why I also LOVE this book!

Their journey to be together is hard but it is there’s. They fight each other as much as they fight for each other. I’m ablaze with all the feels this book instilled in me.

“That’s why I had to break you, ma petite. You weren’t made for this; I broke you so that you’d be made for me.”

With a new direction and new locale, Troy starts anew after a devastating betrayal and a brutal kick to her self esteem.

When she meets her teacher Leo, it’s immediate hate. Their tempers blaze. It doesn’t take them long however to realize they are kindred souls. Both deeply hurting and in need of salvation. That doesn’t mean love comes easy. Hate-to-love is more apt. The more they fight, the more the passion overflows and soon it’s hard to tell if they are fighting against each other or for each other.

Will Troy’s love finally be enough and will Leo ever be ready to accept?

The Fall of Troy is a taboo teacher/student romance that is also a hate-to-love.

From the beginning I was enthralled and it did not let up until the very end.

The characters and the feelings they inspired are vivid.

Leo Beaudin is the new book boyfriend that I love to hate and that I hate to love! Sigh

Dr. Rebecca Sharp has ripped out my heart and has yet to give it back. For that, I must wait for the second book in the duet. In the meantime, I am nothing short of bereft.

I received an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

EXCERPT

“Who told you?” I demanded, my lip quivering as the last of my tears tumbled down my cheek. “Who told you about my dad?”

 His smirk was hard and fast.Careless. Like a hit and run, it left me shaking. My nipples poked against the fabric of my t-shirt, the stupid flower one I had on the other week. My hips pressed back against the door, a reflex so that they didn’t press against him. My thighs locked together, trying to stop his words from tapping more moisture from between them.

 “No one had to tell me,” he ground out, staring intently at my lips that interrogated him. “It’s written all over your face that you’re searching for someone to fill Daddy’s shoes. Poor little girl searching for someone to give her attention and tell her that she’s pretty and perfect and smart.” Each word was spat out like it was a curse, one that made my stomach boil.

I hated him.

I hated him with every molecule of oxygen in every breath I took and every beat of my heart.

 I hated him with the burning of a thousand suns.

“And what about you?” I shot back. “Aren’t you just searching for a quick screw to try and make you forget how miserable you are?”

 “That person is not me, petite,” he ended flatly, barely managing to pull the mask over the enraged lust in his eyes. “Now, this is the last time I will repeat myself and save you. Do not find yourself in a locked room with a strange man again.”
