The One is the first in an erotic thriller series and is
suitable for adults only due to the erotic content.
Adelia’s world is shattered when both of her parents are
killed in a car crash. As she deals with her grief she meets Miles, an eco
investment banker, and Karolin, his twin sister, who go about trying to help
Adelia get her life back on track. Miles is very intense and has told Adelia in
no uncertain terms that she is his for life. Even though Adelia found this a
little quick, she soon warms up to him and realises she is madly in love with
him. Adelia is drawn into his world of sex and money, completely unaware that
she is being played. Will she get her heart broken or be able to turn the story
around to her favour? And what is it about her parents’ death that just doesn’t
seem right?
As I read the book I completely forgot that it was the first
of a series and was very annoyed that it got to the end only to find out it
didn’t finish. That goes to show how much you want to see what happens next.
The erotic parts of the book are very steamy so definitely be cautious when
deciding whether to read it or not. As you read further and further, you get so
frustrated with Miles and so angry with Karolin you just want to yell and tell
them what is really happening. I felt so sorry for Adelia being played like she
was. I’m glad she found some measure of happiness but that fact that she couldn’t
accept it was harsh. Not being a lover of horseriding, I found the equestrian
descriptions too much and tended to gloss over them. A great start to a series
with good character descriptions, back story and action.
