Afterburn (Jax & Gia #1)
The realization that Jax still affected me so strongly was a jagged pill to swallow. He’d only been part of my life for five short weeks two years ago. But now he was back. Walking into a deal I’d worked hard to close. And God, he was magnificent. His eyes were a brown so dark they were nearly black. Thickly lashed, they were relentless in their intensity. Had I really thought they were soft and warm? There was nothing soft about Jackson Rutledge. He was a hard and jaded man, cut from a ruthless cloth.
In that moment I understood how badly I wanted to unravel the mystery of Jax. Bad enough that I didn’t mind how much it was going to cost me...
Something new from Sylvia Day? I was so pleased to get a chance to read something else from Sylvia Day. My only Day-experience came at the hands of the one and only Gideon Cross, so I was excited to see what she had up her sleeve. I adored the writing style of this and loved that it felt so different than the Crossfire style. In the first installment, we meet Gia - she is driven and determined. But she is still hung up on the man that walked out of her life. She has succeeded at her career but
Stopped reading - too much like a Mills & Boon story. Will go back and finish at some point
4/4.5 Stars!I was very curious about this book/series...I was interested to see how it compared to the Crossfire series. And I have to say, I really really enjoyed it. I knew going in that it was part 1 of 2--so I was a little nervous about there being a cliffhanger ending. Afterburn was a short, quick read--about 100 pages. And I am pleased to say that it DID NOT end with a big cliffy. Yay! I really liked the plot/setting--I thought it was different--having to do with the restaurant industry.
Id know you blindfolded. Sylvia Day does it again! Just when I though that there was no way that she could possibly grab my attention so completely like with the Crossfire series, she gives us Gia and Jax. Two e-novella instalments that will eventually make up a complete novel, Afterburn gives us our first taste of the very passionate and utterly captivating love affair between a young woman trying to leave her mark in the business world and a powerful and very wealthy man whom she met while
First, here's my casting for Jax: Short, hot, and sinfully delicious! As soon as I heard about this being released, I one-clicked because I just had to meet the next hero written by the creator of Gideon Cross and let me tell you, Jackson Rutledge can hold his own!Sitting at about 130 pages, Afterburn was easy to read in one sitting and while I do wish it had been longer, sometimes having a shorter read is exactly what you need.The writing was in very much the same style as the Crossfire books
I had this book since the release but I was passing other in front on my reading list and I forgot completely.Now I decided to read because I read several comments about the story and we'd have a movie about the book.I was extremely disappointed with the story and thought it too without depth or character development.Shallow history and that there was no need for the second book.The author could have deepened in the mysteries of the family of the hero and his reasons to submit to the whims of

IT's a new Sylvia Day's BOOK!!!!Again Sylvia Day gave us another male character panty-dropper that make us fall in love and therefore screws up our chance to find a real one!This was a short story, but still for the first time in a short book I didn't feel like it was short or that it ended up too abruptly! Instead I felt like it was just perfect. But this is probably because Sylvia Day has an outstanding writing style. That woman can do magic with her words!Usually this would be the part whereSomething new from Sylvia Day? I was so pleased to get a chance to read something else from Sylvia Day.
