E. Clay

I was a military wife for a few years, and understand a bit of what E. Clay describes in the book. At first I thought the book was written by a woman, but later on in the book I learn that it wasn't the case at all. Which took me by surprise since the title gives off a different impression to what is inside the book. The descriptive words and events really made me feel like I was right there beside all the characters. It was a complete roller coaster of emotions and feelings, that took me up and down throughout the whole book.

What I really enjoyed about this book was the fact that it was based off true events that happened. I was completely taken by surprise when I finally realized this was written by a man, and not the military wife herself. I found myself sympathizing with Monet since she's a military wife, and I know from first hand events that this is a very hard position to be in. But in the other sense I feel horrible for her husband, who has to deal with a wife who isn't always being a honest a true wife to him when he needs a rock and support system.

With everything that's going on in the author's life you are really attached to all the characters. I always feel like I connect with each of the characters in the books I read, and this one was no exception.
Besides for the very few spelling and grammar issues, I thought this book was pretty well written.… (plus d'informations)

I read the Seduction of Monet Dawson, in exchange for review from Reader Spoils. I received a pdf version of the book. The book started off with suspense in the prologue. Wasn't sure what was going on, but you knew something bad was happening. I can tell it was set in maybe the 1990s' because in the first chapter, a man and his son, was watching In living color. I wasn't sure who the man was. His name is Clay, but I wasnt sure how he fit into the story yet. Clay meets Monet at Montgomery Ward, while he was looking for furnishings for his house. Monet is married to a military man, and she is assigned to help Clay install some blinds. Monet is tired of being a military wife.

Enter the psycho girlfriend, lots of blood, but no one is dead. That scene-wow. A lot of details was left out, but the damage was evident.

The book also included the medical reports and court records for the incident. The names was mostly blurred out.

I liked reading the book. It was a nice read with dramatic scenes. The flow was nice. Not too fast. Not too slow.

I did like the dynamics between Monet and Clay. What starts out as innocent can turn into temptation. There is one scene, which was a little intense. Clay is a hypnotherapist and needs to hypnotize someone besides a family or friend. He choses Monet. That scene, wow.… (plus d'informations)
