Take a girl like Columbia, put her in a vastly different
life with a man unlike anyone she's ever known. Throw in Dimitri's nightmares,
the Concierge's disdain for Dimitri's new house guest and a few hundred people
looking high and low for the both of them...and it makes for a very interesting
first few months in a brand new relationship.
Picking up at the end of the last chapter from the first bestselling
book in this series, this novel covers their time together in Hong Kong.
Two twisted and imperfect beings must adjust to their new
lives together while avoiding detection from authorities and an international
crime ring.
***As with the first novel in this series, this story covers dark
themes with 18+ sex, murder and violence.***

Perfectly Normal picks up right after
the end of The Beast but happens
before the epilogue of The Beast. We
find out what happens in between and a lot of it is smoking hot sex! Holy crap
was this book filled with hot sex! I loved how we found out more about the
concierge and finally found out his name and how you found out his name was
even better! The bond and love between Columbia and Dimitri is stronger and
more powerful than ever. This is one awesome couple. I cannot wait to read Little Dove and see what happens next. I
hope to see more of the concierge as well; he is one fine piece of meat!
Characters:
Well written and you can’t help but like them, flaws and all.

flipping hot I needed to change my panties several times while reading!

This is the
second in the series - and reveals what happened between the last chapter of The Beast, and its epilogue. I found
this a clever plot device, as we knew the outcome, but not the journey. It
reduced the worry factor, but ramped up the heat. And heat there is aplenty
with a twist in the tale which I did not see coming, but that was off the
thermometer hot - and both in a mind games and physical way. The development of
Columbia's character, and the revelations of Dimi's made this a thoughtful book.
And the whole bad guys searching for them, fighting etc. brought another
dimension again. Amazing how much can be packed into less than two hundred
pages, once you start to dissect it! And it all be claimed as perfectly
normal...
Bring on
book 3 ... please
Also Available in The Beast Series
Dimitri Sokolov is a man scarred, physically and
emotionally. From the rough streets of Moscow to the highest ranks in the
Solntsevskaya Bratva, he has seen it all.
An attack four years ago left him disfigured and in
seclusion, hiding from reactions to his appearance and in safety from those who
failed to kill him the first time.
Comfortable in his penthouse, managing his billion dollar
businesses, he's resigned himself to be alone, simply called The Beast among
those who've dealt with him in the past.
Columbia Grey is a pseudo-activist trying to save her
neighbourhood from a developer intent on levelling it to build apartment
towers. She goes along with a plan to confront the CEO of the company on his
own turf, to force him to listen to her demands...all in a pathetic attempt to
impress a man she barely likes.
Little does she know, she's taken herself into the mouth of
the beast, a man familiar with death and destruction, sex and seduction, a man
used to getting exactly what he wants and a man with nothing left to lose.
She's a beauty, but will that be enough to tame the beast
and save her life?
***This is not a fairy tale, this is what happens when the music ends
and life goes on after the credits roll. This is about simply existing until
you find yourself and write your own happily ever after, no matter what form it
takes.***

Holy crap, I
don't even know what to say other than this book was so amazing! I actually
bought this for myself on my birthday in March but didn't read it right away. I
am kicking myself now! This book was dark and hot and just flipping fabulous!
Jaden nailed it again! I love Columbia and Dimitri and I am already reading Perfectly Normal, cannot get enough of
the Beast and his Dove!

This was an
interesting mix of dark erotica, romance, and revelations of prior abuse that
made the current chaos seem better. It was crazy, but I could not stop reading
- well, except when I thought something really bad was going to happen and then
I needed to take a breather before immersing myself back in the story. There
are bits which I couldn't quite see connecting, but overall, I found it a
worthwhile read - now I am off to read book 2 Perfectly Normal.
Thanks again Ms. Wilkes for a thought provoking story.
