4/5
If my blushing and grinning face with an aching heart is any indicator of how much I adored this story, then I think it's safe to say that at the very least it was addictive!
Holy hell. My goodness.
Lets start with Noah Caldwell. I think that name alone can have the power to strike up a few butterflies.. then we get to meet his character and all hell breaks lose. I seriously wasn't expecting for my sanity to go out the window at the same time that we get to see Noah's wild, alpha, sexy as sin and all things drool worthy side. That is just the basis though..
Then we have Raven Crowne, his best friend, a woman that like most of those who witnesses heartbreak, darkness and soul crushing moments, lives with a wall guarding her heart and mind. It's hard to get close to her but with Noah being one of her best friends, he kind of has an upper hand in a way. I mean, she is a closely guarded person, finding it hard to leave control to anyone but herself, yet she was still able to slowly let Noah in.. Maybe not as much as he would like, actually, he doesn't like it at all, the fact that he has so much attraction towards her but she isn't looking for a more than friends relationship..
And THAT's were all the twists and turns take place.
Friends to lovers?
Secrets to openness?
Does she let him in? Does she trust him more than she lets on?
And can he be both the dominant and a caring best friend turned boyfriend? Will she accept him? Will she continue to understand his personality and lifestyle??
EXPOSURE is litereally the best book to read for so many reasons, but the one I love the most? It's so RAW and SOULFUL that it invites you in to the point that you CAN'T LET GO. Honestly. I had to force myself to leave my kindle down because you know, food and water and all that survival staff ;)
I would recommend this story to any single one of you guys!! It's just too "breath of fresh air" in the romance genre not to have it at the top of your TBR. Yes there are cliche moments and yes some of the scenes might have been just a little predictable BUT that is nothing compared to how heartfelt the story together and behind both the characters were. How much soul you can feel emanating from the page from both Noah and Raven. How powerful their characters were separately, which in turn leads to how well the author linked them together.. I could seriously go on and on about all the elements that I loved but I think it's fair to say I might eventually end up spoiling plot twists..
THANK YOU Kelly Moran for providing an ARC of this gorgeous story! I couldn't get enough and I can't wait to read more of your sexy as sin alphas ;)
