Synopsis:
WARNING: Dance for Me is the first book in a trilogy and ends with a cliffhanger. Due to mature material, it is recommended for ages 17+.What if the person who stole your heart wasn't who you thought they were?
When my parents passed away, I grew up fast. Learning to stand on my own two feet has been a challenge, but I'm making it... my way. I make no apologies for the path I've chosen. My choices have served me well, but no one knows the real me.
Except one man.
He's a mystery to me. He's controlling, demanding, and he has me wrapped around his little finger. Anything he wants, I'll give it to him. The hours we share together aren't about love. It's just sex. Hot, dirty, passionate sex. It was never supposed to be anything more than that.
Until everything changed.
Now, I'm more confused than ever. The more I learn about him, the less I seem to understand. What I do know is that I'm falling, and I have the feeling when I land, it's going to hurt.
My Review- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Josephine Aka Joe is a college student who is trying to pay her way through college by any means necessary which in other words means stripping. With the loss of her parents at such a young age she has no support for money, even though one of her life goals isn't stripping she must do it to ensure her way through college without any support of parents.
With the way Joe is working she meets many people one of them including a sexy mysterious man whom she meets regularly, and creates a sexual bond with him.
Without really knowing anything about each other; besides her being a stripper and him being a regular, this creates the one big complication that arises when she goes to college and finds out whom her art proffesor is.
At first I was completely hooked by the beginning being this was the first story I ever read by J.C Valentine but I was very intrigued by the way Joe lives her life and how she gets by in the world. Valentine creates a really good novel of unexpected twists and turns which suprises me. The flow of the story is really well done as well, which sometimes isn't always done the best ways, so this made the story better. Sometimes I felt like I wanted to scream at Joe though with her actions and the way she took things. Like I would be in the middle of reading and read something that happened at start screaming at my tablet haha!
This story makes you want to cling onto more and read the next book in THE FORBIDDEN SERIES, especially with that cliffhanger it left you with. I heard it had a big cliffhanger at the end but I blew it off and now I have to suffer until the next book comes out ugh. Anyways I think Valentine does a fantastic job of bringing you the first part of Joe's story.
