So Close: The unmissable Sunday Times bestseller (Blacklist, 1)

Product Information

Majority of this (70%) felt very slow, I couldn’t get into it. I didn’t like any of the characters and I lost interest around the mystery of Lily because it dragged and the focus was more on the drama. I didn’t like the reveal because it went from a (mostly) drama/romance to gangsters and then an assassination?! It wasn’t well fleshed out and came out all of a sudden. I wish there was more of a build up or some hints throughout.

Three women, linked by buried secrets, circle the man who unquestioningly accepts the return of his beloved long-dead wife. Kane is happier than he's ever been, and he'll do anything to stay that way. This instantly had me intrigued. You can't stop reading. That ending!! My goodness, I'm so ready for the next book' 5***** READER REVIEW This book has everything you can think of in it. Amazing characterization with characters you want to love and those you love to hate. Day balances good with evil and sometimes you cannot tell who is good, but you can definitely see some evil going on! She was so young, barely in her twenties, yet she left a profound impression on everyone who met her. And she left her husband in torment, destroyed by doubt, guilt and heart-breaking questions … the answers to which she took to her watery grave. I find I can’t move, arrested by the sight of all three of them together. I wait vainly for Lily to look up, to see the man she claimed was not a father figure but who looked after her well-being. A man she claimed would kill her husband because that is what her mother would have wanted him to do.

It’s not complicated.” She glances at the television, but the reporter has moved on to another story, and she’s left unaware of the previous segment. “It’s a relief. You’re safe.” Her face, already pale as porcelain, turns bloodless. I read the movement of her lushly red lips. Kane.

Somewhere along the way, however, our professional distance closed and eventually disappeared altogether. He’s the closest thing to a son I will ever have, and that has made him a blind spot. But now I see.You see, every bone in me wanted the visceral feelings of Bared To You, the entire Crossfire series to be fair, sadly (and I mean SADLY 😢😢😢) though, it's so far from that I don't think I'll read her books again.

You did an excellent job with the party last night, Witte,” he says, rather absent-mindedly. “You always do, but still. Never hurts to say I appreciate you, does it?” The mother's obsession with her son's lives is actually concerning. Kane sleeps with Amy then introduces her to his brother Darius who likes Amy and marries her. Amy owns a company that the mom wants to she suggests they merge but there is a certain 2-yr-clause which can save the day. This tells me Amy and Darius have been married for less than 2 years. The mom purposely plays mind-games with Amy making her think Darius is cheating on her. If she sees Amy walk into the building she'll send Darius and his assistant away to make her think they're screwing. Also the way she talks about Kane is.. Happy new year to you too. I've not done a re-read yet this year (too many other must reads out), but have dipped in occasionally to clarify some thoughts.Â

As if I don’t know anything. Yeah, I went to public school and did a two-year stint at a junior college before finishing my marketing degree at a university. True, I hadn’t known my water glass was to my right or that you set forks on the left. None of that makes me worthless. A dangerous and sultry novel about lies, secrets, and the line between love and obsession. The perfect first entry of a two-book series, So Close drew me in and kept me reading, desperate to know what happened next. Domestic suspense at its sexiest." — November 2022 Holding the newspaper out to her, he sighs heavily. I can’t see his face, but her frown of concern is insightful. She takes the paper but keeps her gaze on him. “What is it?”

Paul’s embezzlement resonates with Cross, even though he avoids mentioning it directly. His father, Geoffrey Cross, is infamous for heading a Ponzi scheme with investor losses in the billions. When someone thinks of the Cross name now, it’s Gideon they think of first and foremost, and he won’t allow anything – or anyone – to tarnish the successful image he’s worked so diligently to craft. She has been living in New York (presumably) this WHOLE TIME. 🤦🏻‍♀️ there are subtle hints to whether Kane knew if she was really alive or dead (I swear if he thought she was alive and still hooked up with women...), or if Lily is actually the real Lily... I will read book 2 for this. I made sure Social Creamery viralized Kane’s inclusion in the magazine’s feature of sexy men because celebrity equals wealth. It irritated me that I hadn’t anticipated former friends and lovers – not to mention supposedly dead spouses – scuttling out of the shadows to revel in his glow. But how could I have foreseen something like this?I have never seen him show genuine affection to any woman but his sister, Rosana. He is polite to paramours, always. Attentive when in pursuit. But liaisons are limited to a single evening. He has never sent flowers to a lover, never indulged in a flirtatious phone call, nor invited or escorted a woman to dinner. I’ve no knowledge of how he treats a lady with whom he is intimately entangled. It is a gap in my understanding of him that may never be filled.
