REVIEW
If you have not yet read the Inside Out series by Lisa Renee Jones, you
are in for a treat. All the books in the
series have captivated me from the start.
Her stories just flow fluidly and always leave me wanting more.
Recently, I had the pleasure of reading Revealing Us. In Being Me, we got down to Sara’s guarded secret that made my heart break for her. In this installment we finally get down to what made Chris into the man he is. The man who seeks out and craves pain to escape his demons. This beautiful man carries so much inside him. He has lost so much. He avoids getting too close to people, yet there’s something about Sara that he can’t resist. Time and again he’s tried to warn her away, but after what they’ve both endured up to this point she’s not backing off. She’s all in. “No in between.”

I love him with Sara. They are absolutely perfect for each
other. Together, they are stronger. Together they have faced many monsters and
have come out triumphant. But, now they
stand before one of their toughest challenges.
Trust. When you have someone from
Chris’s past who’s hell bent on making him suffer, while at the same time
coming off as the faithful confidant, it’s understandable for Sara to feel
insecure, out of depth. She needs to remember the man
Chris is now though. The man he’s showed
her to be. And the secrets the lay in
his past are for him to reveal. Which he
eventually does.
My heart ached for Chris a few
times. The burden this man carries with
him dug a pit in me. With Sara’s love
though and the strength they gather from each other he’s finally starting to
heal. They both are.
Though there is still plenty left to
resolve, this book did not end in a major cliffhanger like the last two. It was more of a To Be Continued feeling. Well…that is until you get to the
Epilogue. There, Lisa Renee left me
clutching my Kindle tightly, frantically swiping my finger across the screen
for more. Ah, but it wouldn’t be a Lisa
Renee Jones book if she didn’t leave me desperate for more.
