Have you Pre-Ordered your copy of Freed by E.L. James…

Anyone who knows me, knows how much I absolutely love the love story between Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele… And yes, I enjoy a good steamy read too! But, this particular love story is exactly why I read romance. I am so excited for E.J. James newest release, Freed. Can’t wait to dive into the world of Fifty Shades again.

Releasing June 1st, 2021

Relive the sensuality, the romance, and the drama of Fifty Shades Freed―the love story that enthralled millions of readers around the world―through the thoughts, reflections, and dreams of Christian Grey.

Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele have tied the knot―but marriage brings its own challenges. Though their passion burns hotter and deeper than ever, Ana’s defiant spirit continues to stir Christian’s darkest fears and tests his need for control. As old rivalries and resentments endanger them both, one misjudgment threatens to tear them apart.

E L James is an incurable romantic and a self-confessed fangirl. After twenty-five years of working in television, she decided to pursue a childhood dream and write stories that readers could take to their hearts. The result was the controversial and sensuous romance Fifty Shades of Grey and its two sequels, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed. In 2015, she published the #1 bestseller Grey, the story of Fifty Shades of Grey from the perspective of Christian Grey, and in 2017, the chart-topping Darker, the second part of the Fifty Shades story from Christian’s point of view. Her books have been published in fifty languages and have sold more than 165 million copies worldwide.

E L James has been recognized as one of Time magazine’s “Most Influential People in the World” and Publishers Weekly’s “Person of the Year.” Fifty Shades of Grey stayed on The New York Times Best Seller List for 133 consecutive weeks. Fifty Shades Freed won the Goodreads Choice Award (2012), and Fifty Shades of Grey was selected as one of the 100 Great Reads, as voted by readers, in PBS’s The Great American Read (2018). Darker was long-listed for the 2019 International DUBLIN Literary Award.

She was a producer on each of the three Fifty Shades movies, which made more than a billion dollars at the box office. The third installment, Fifty Shades Freed, won the People’s Choice Award for Drama in 2018. E L James is represented by her long-standing agent Valerie Hoskins of VHA London.

E L James is blessed with two wonderful sons and lives with her husband, the novelist and screenwriter Niall Leonard, and their West Highland terriers in the leafy suburbs of West London.

~NEW REVIEW~Essence of Time (Stewart Realty #4)

Ok so at first I wasn’t so sold on Essence of Time.  Jack and Sara are still around in this fourth installment of the Stewart Realty series but this time the story revolves around Blake, Sara’s brother, and his lover Rob, one of Jack’s oldest friends.  We were introduced to Blake and Rob in Floor Time and they have been strong supporting characters ever since.

Essence of Time is probably one of HOTEST, most intense novels I have ever read!  I am in awe of how Liz Crowe was able to tell so much of Blake and Rob’s story in one novel…  Brilliant!  I couldn’t put this story down.  Essence of Time takes a few strolls down memory lane and what we learn during those strolls will surprise the hell out of you! 

I thought that Closing Costs was my favourite novel in the series but I think it’s now tied with Essence of Time.  I was definitely more emotionally invested in Essence of Time than any other novel in the series.  Fabulous story, brilliant characters and extreme hotness… What more could you want in a novel!  N.  5

~REVIEWS~ and A Journey of Our Own

We gals at Flirty and Dirty would just like to say something about why we read, why we should read and what a book does for the mind, body and soul.

I’m sure like most of you, we read because we love to – unless it’s a textbook and we are studying for exams. Then it’s a must do… We love to see how others take perspective on something, be it friendship, love, tragedy, betrayal, sex or life in general.

We believe everyone should read. If not to remove yourself from the daily grind, even if just for a few moments, then to open your heart, mind and soul to the ‘other’ that is out there. Other may be something spiritual, something exhilarating, passionate, and different or something that you just can’t get from real life. Read to learn, to enjoy, to speculate, to ponder, to dream and to feel that AHA moment. Read because you can.

A book can take you on an amazing journey. Each time you reread a book will take you on an entirely different journey from the last. Every new book read takes you on yet another amazing path. Even when a book is not that appealing to you or you just couldn’t feel it, that story has evoked an emotion in you. It has made you think of something. If ten people read the same book, there will undoubtedly be ten different responses to that book.

 

We ask that when you post a review or comment on the blog or FB, that you respect everyone’s journey. So that means no spoilers and no bashing. We all have the right to read and the right to escape through stories.

 

Happy reading and get flirty and dirty! Cuz books are HOT!
