We are so excited to be a part of this
blog tour for Tara Brown! She is one of my favorite authors and this book is
fantastic! Make sure you check it out!
*Blurb*
The Lonely
The truth is subjective to what the
lonely lets in.
Emalyn Spicer has lived with it for a
long time. She thinks it goes back further than her memories do. She knows it
goes back further than the OCD.
When she arrives at college, her OCD's
and the lonely refuse to let her have her wish to be normal.
When she meets Sebastian and starts to
fall for him, she lets herself believe it's possible to outrun the things
chasing her from the past. But how to you get away from the things inside of
you? How do you run from yourself?
Just as she gives up and succumbs to the
lonely, the unthinkable happens. She finds herself once again trapped in the
dark, once again held against her will.
This time she meets the lonely head on.
In the darkest corners of her mind, she discovers there is more to her world
than she ever imagined. She discovers that the lonely was there for her,
protecting her from herself and her secrets.
How far would you go to find yourself?
This is a dark and captivating novel,
tread lightly
Don't forget to check out the companion
novel due out in the summer of 2013, The Lost Boy. Maybe that'll help you sort
out the things you have leftover from the story...
This book is rated 19+ due to extreme
sexual and language content!

*Review*
First off, I already knew Tara Brown was
epic. Seriously epic. Her books are always amazing. But THIS one?!? OMG! This
was completely different than her other books. I was beyond blown away.
Em has been suffering her whole life from
the lonely. That, and the crippling OCD. Combine the two? Yea, her life has
been a mess of problems. She's off to college for the first time, hoping,
praying, that the lonely doesn't overtake her. She just wants to be normal. Her
best friend is there with her, helping her adjust, and pushing her towards
overcoming her issues.
When she meets Sebastian, it's like
someone finally understands her. He's hot (OMG HOT!) and doesn't let her minor
freak outs bother him. He's one of those guys who is just awesome in his own
right. But there's a problem: Em is still seriously messed up. And she doesn't
think she can ever get close to him. :(
When she gets pulled back into that dark,
dank hole, where the lonely is king, things start to go haywire. I seriously
won't say anything else about it though. Other than to tell you that there are
some dark moments in this book. And some rather kinky moments as well. But
that's what makes it real. This is the nitty gritty and once you've read this
book, you'll have a completely different outlook on life. Or, I did.
I have to say, I felt an immediate
connection to Em. I have suffered from OCD for most of my life, and I know how
problematic it can be. Tara Brown hit the nail on the head with this character.
I felt like I could really relate to her on a personal basis. So, thank you
Tara Brown. Thank you for creating a character who's just as messed up (well,
she's wayyy more messed up then me) and neurotic as the rest of us. If you're
looking for an EPIC book, grab this one. You'll be begging for more by the end.
About the Author:
I am not going to talk in the third
person. It feels weird.
I am a Canadian author of Paranormal
Romance, Post Apocalyptic and Fantasy novels. Mostly because I think I have
Writers ADD, I like to call it WADD. It might be a real thing.
I write New Adult, my books have sexual
content (Heck yes) and Swearing. You have been warned. Now enjoy!
I have a beagle named Buster, a husband
who I force to read everything I write and two girls who want so badly to be a
character in my books. And not in that order.
I am mid thirties so be prepared for the
chick lit novel this year. I am calling it my Ode to my Midlife Crisis.
I have been writing since I was old
enough to lie. So for some time.
Welcome to my world. Please enjoy the
ride.
