Book Description
Luna
Saint Claire has a loving husband and an enviable career as a Hollywood
costume designer. Still, something is gnawing at her. Bored with her
conventional and circumscribed existence, she feels herself becoming
invisible. When she meets Nico Romero, a charismatic yoga guru, his
attentions awaken her passions and desires. Dangerous, but not in a way
that scares her, he makes her feel as if anything is possible.
Infatuated, she becomes entangled in Nico’s life as he uses his
mesmerizing sexuality to manipulate everyone around him in his pursuit
of women, wealth, and celebrity.
Immensely
erotic and psychologically captivating, The Sleeping Serpent is the
compelling story of a woman’s obsession with a spellbinding guru and the
struggle to reclaim her life. At its heart, it is a painfully beautiful
exposition of unconditional love that makes us question what we truly
want.
This story is a little slow in the beginning however, it
picks up and the story flows from there. This is a multi POV read so if this is
not your style than you will not like this book. But I will say give it try. ;)
Okay, now that that’s out the let’s get down to business.
This book is a mental rollercoaster ride. You see the true
art of manipulation in the hands of the devil himself. It’s all a slow game to Nico;
Women are his game pieces of choice, he uses them like the pieces on a chess
board. Each move is meant to move him closer to checkmate while making pawns
out of each of the women.
This is a deep read that will have you say, “What the Hell
did I just read?” The author is very descriptive, it is a little of an hindrance
to the story but I think she wants you to be in the moment to feel, smell and
see everything the women are and how Nico uses it to his advantage. He uses
everything thing around him to get what he wants.
Now each of the woman have a different use to Nice and he
uses them according. They each also gain something from him that can improve
their life. However, they feel it is only depended on if he is in their life.
Luna is one who fights to get her life back even if means losing along the way.
There are so many little things that I want to tell you
about but it would ruin the story for you. Therefore, if you love a good
MindF@#K than this is worth the read!
Did I mention this is the author’s first book? Yeah, it will
only get better from here. My Star rating is 4.5
