Synopsis

Saving lives is Jonah Stem's job-but he usually does it at the hospital, not at 3 a.m. on the dark streets of Manhattan. When he impulsively intervenes to save a beautiful woman from a man menacing her with a knife, killing the attacker in the process, he is transformed from an overworked medical student to a hero in the media spotlight. The woman, Eve Gones, is profoundly grateful, and wants to show it. Before long, they're engaged in a wildly passionate love affair. An affair that Eve doesn't want to end. Ever.

Goodreads review by Keith on March 02, 2011

Love can take many forms in one’s life, growing and evolving as time passes into something far better and brighter than anything we might have hoped for, or it can warp into something far more twisted, pervasive and corrosive than anyone could ever imagine.

Ce roman aurait pu être très bon. L’intrigue avait énormément de potentiel. Beaucoup trop de blabla qui veulent rien dire autour du personnage principal. Je suis quelqu’un qui se force à finir un roman, donc je l’ai terminé et je ne suis pas déçue du dénouement. Après le 3/4 le roman devient vraimen......more
