BANG (The Black Lotus Series #1) by E.K. Blair
18 May, 2014
PLEASE HEED THE WARNING ON THIS BOOK!
They say when you take revenge against another you lose a part of your innocence.
But I’m not innocent.
I haven’t been for a very long time.
My innocence was stolen from me. Taken was the life I was supposed to have. The soul I was born with. The ruby heart embedded in a life full of hopes and dreams.
Gone.
Vanished.
I never even had a choice.
I mourn that life. Mourn the what-ifs.
Until now.
I’m ready to take back what was always meant to be mine.
But every plan has a fatal flaw. Sometimes it’s the heart.
**Due to the dark and explicit nature of this book, it is recommended for mature audiences only as some scenes may be particularly disturbing.**

ADDICTIVE. DISTURBING. READ THIS BOOK!!!
“Can you taste it? The fairytale.”
Jenny & Gitte: As we write this review our minds and thoughts are screaming. Our knuckles are still white from the tight grip we’ve had on our kindles as we read Bang in one mind blowing sitting, today. The phone line between us is burning hot…the momentary silences heavy as we digest what we just read. Our thoughts all over the place, our sanity in the hands of E.K Blair.
“..people who get hurt in life are the ones who allow themselves to feel.”
There’s so much we would love to say about just how disturbing, fascinating and riveting this story is, but to give anything away would be serving a HUGE injustice to the reader and the Author alike. This story MUST be read with no preconceived perceptions or spoilers.
‘The heart is a weapon – a self-inflicting weapon – that if not trained properly, can destroy a person.’
E.k. Blair’s story of depravity, revenge, intrigue and vengeance was phenomenally written. It shocked, sickened and saddened us as we kept turning the pages relishing the scraps of information dished out by an author who certainly knows how to grab a reader’s attention and keep her audience on the edge of their seats; their pulses racing.
“I want to make you into everything you’ve ever dreamed of being.”
The concept and characters were a brave risk to take, however, what she achieved was thrilling and shocking with brilliantly developed characters. Bang was un-put-down-able and the end result was nothing short of brilliant in its fucked-up-ness! Standing ovation from us!
‘He is the power. And I am the recipient.’
