Ava Thompson left the love of her life, Jasper White, to unearth her destiny. Even though the decision was the toughest of her life, it was the only way for Ava to grow into the woman she’s always wanted to become.
Sadly, that destiny has led her back to the place that broke her.
Singapore.
And more importantly, it has led her back to the man who broke her.
Harper.
But Ava is no longer the scared, lost girl she once was. Ava is stronger, and she will not allow her past, taint her future.
Six months later, Ava travels back to Los Angeles for an event that embraces the true meaning of love. Sadly for Ava, her meaning of true love has been lost.
And that’s because of one life changing event that has altered her life forever.
Los Angeles is not how Ava left it. Things have changed. People have changed. She has changed. But what has remained untouched is her passionate love for Jasper White.
But does Jasper feel the same?
Review
I
was provided an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Something
told me this would be a FIVE star read. I knew it the moment I read the
synopsis. Monica James you were always a favorite author of mine, but now you
are on the ‘buy anything she writes’ shelf!
This
book gave me chills. It gave me all the FEELS. Every time Jasper spoke, it was
with conviction, and it made me fall for him more and more each time. The book
picks up at a point where I was least expecting. Things were definitely
different than the last time we left Jasper and Ava. Oh and jerkface, Harper is
back. In ways you wouldn’t believe!
The
minute Jasper and Ava are reunited you feel everything: anger, disgust,
passion, but most of all love. Despite the circumstances Jasper and Ava are
still very much in love with each other. If you think you know what is going to
happen in Surrender To Me, you are highly mistaken. The things that occur in
this story will make you back track in your reading and leave you with your
mouth wide open. Yes, Monica James goes there! Her writing is flawless and
exciting.
“My heart is yours. It beats for no one but you. Do you hear me? Only you.”
Monica
James, you made my heart ache and then somehow put it back together. Jasper
White. I Surrender. I laughed, I
cried, I swooned. You are the epitome of a book boyfriend. This heart-wrenching
story is a must read. These
characters will stay with me for a long time. I absolutely cannot wait to see
what is in store for the rest of Jasper and Ava’s story.
