What I Think

I have been wanting to read this book for while and have picked it up and put it down a few times. only because I have had read a trilogy both times before hand, but this time I did not put it down and I was glad I didn't. the story starts to me really full on with a sex scene which might turn some people off but bare with it because you soon come to understand that It is something Sara is reading.

The story follows Sara a high school teacher who's neighbour Ella wins a storage locker of a lady, but Ella goes off to get married in Paris out of the blue and she asks Sara to clean out the storage locker for her as she only has a week to do so or it get resold to someone else and that Sara can keep the profits from the things that are in it she sells.

Sara is unsure she wants to sell anything, she looks through the storage locker for information to give the lady her things back Sara reads the lady's journals to see if she can find her whereabouts. she finds out that she works at ALLURE Art Gallery somewhere Sara as always wanted to work as she has studied and got her Major in Art.

It also follows Chris Merit a Famous Artist who's art is hanging in ALLURE Art Gallery. There was a event for another artist to unveil a new piece. That is where Chris meets Sara for the first time when she is running late for the unveiling.

There is a lot that happens in this book but the way it is written is amazing and you don't get lost with who is who but it keeps you guessing all the way, oh and the ending I did not see that coming. I will be reading the rest of the trilogy as soon as I can.
