Can you trade one addiction for another? Ian Anwell is an author that is a recovering heroine addict and uses alcohol not to chase away the urge for more heroine. When he watches a movie with Kristina Richards in it, he has to watch all her movies. He is obsessed with her and he has to meet her as soon as possible. When they meet, the attraction is there and it is strong. Kristina is the type of person that falls too fast. Can she spend time with Ian and not lose her heart or get it broken? Can Ian move from his addiction and not scare Kristina off? Will Kristina be able to handle Ian when his latest story hits too close to home? This is a great story and had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what happens next and then the end before I was ready. I can't wait for book 2. I have to know what happens.

More and more authors are releasing stories in a serial format and I am all for it. Especially when you know when the next installment releases. It gives me something to be extra excited about when the day comes around.
Silk Volume 1 (of 4) has that certain WOW factor. There's so much with these 100 or so pages. I’m new to K.M. Scotts work (although I have an entire series of hers in my library) and now it's bubbled up to the top of my TBR. First off, her writing style truly captivates and is so amazingly descriptive. The story just unfolds and the characters came to life. I could picture everything so clearly and I was hooked by from the start. Also, the storyline is very clever and gives us a view of addiction and obsession through the eyes of the obsessed.
The story is told through 2 perspectives, Ian’s and Kristina’s. The story starts from Ians POV, and we are immediately drawn into his dark and wacky obsessive mind. He’s a drug addict who blessedly KNOWS how bad his addiction is. He is very cognizant as he develops a new fascination, except now instead heroine, its a person; Kristina . Ian describes the feeling of knowing what happening to him, feeling it come over him, and it’s one I can so appreciate. Its a feeling that creeps slowly in and if one wanted to, they could almost stop it. I liken it to the release of endorphins that you might get from shopping or a runners high. It’s the moment when you just know that your compulsion is well on its way to having its’ own life < much like that great feeling of 1 clicking a book and loading up your kindle>.
Kristina’s story begins to come to life a few chapters in when the two meet up, as arranged through Ians’ publicist. It’s easy to picture the kind of movie star she is, acting is her craft and what she loves, and she takes the fame as she must. She wants to fly under the radar and it seems obvious she’s an experienced victim of stalking, but more importantly, we learn from the get go that she is as insecure as anyone can be. She lives in constant doubt that she’s worthy of love, that her body isn’t exactly perfect, and so believes she will most assuredly drive Ian away. When the 2 afflictions collide, his addiction and her fears, the story takes a stormy twist.
I am anxiously awaiting book 2 of this serial. I love where things were left because I’m on edge, and I cannot wait to see where KM takes this relationship. Bravo to the author for setting our expectations right up front. We will get the story in 4 parts and release is date is set for the 19th day of each month. My calendar is marked and I will be gobbling up the story.
5 stars for this uber smart and sexy read.

I received this ARC from the author for an honest review.
This is going to be a great series. The story of Ian and Kristina was so sexy and hot! Loved how the story took a bit of a twist. The characters are perfect, Ian a very troubled man, just moving from one addiction to another. Kristina seemed so sweet, should've taken it slower with Ian. But I loved that she thinks she figured him out.
They both were great characters that fit well with each other. I can't wait for volume two and look forward to reading more of K.M. Scott's writing. Loved it!!

Great book. From the moment you meet Ian and Kristina you are intrigued how these tortured souls find each other. Their demons get in the way in finding happiness. I like their craziness but most of all how they finally learn to trust each other. K .M Scott has delivered another phenomenal story.

✨ **Silk, Volume 1** is a steamy, fast-paced start to Kristina and Ian’s story. Kristina is trying to move forward after heartbreak when she meets Ian, a brooding, mysterious author who pulls her into his dark and passionate world. Their chemistry is electric, but his secrets and her doubts make trust almost impossible. This first volume sets the stage with plenty of heat, emotional tension, and just enough intrigue to keep you turning the pages.

This is just a beginning so I highly recommend having all 4 stories to read!
What will happen when Ian suddenly become obsessed with Kristina just with seeing her n the screen? Will there be something more or just primal fascination?
I would love to see more of Inan's thinking - but not only about sex, but about how he feels in general, as obsession can be SO powerful!
Still really nice reading.

If you enjoy Fifty Shades of Grey it's very that. Guy sees girl instantly becomes obsessed and sexual. Dominating guy that is concerned with her every move. It was a good read but not my favourite and I won't be continuing with the series.

Can you ever have enough drugs, booze, sex?? For Ian Anwell, New York Times bestselling author, the answer is a resounding, NO! Ian, describes himself as a "forever recovering heroin addict", and that he is an addict before he's anything else. Rehab, been there done that. His present addiction is booze to calm down is craving for heroin and he drinks large quantities every day. But his addictions can vary and he can easily become addicted to just about anything or anyone and this is where the story really begins.
One night, while flicking thru channels, he focuses on an actress in a movie and instantly becomes addicted with her looks, her body,and her voice and oh those blue eyes. His addiction is in full gear, knows no bounds and all he can think about is fucking and sucking her and how good his cock will feel inside of her. He calls one of his people to set up a meeting with her and as luck would have it, she knows of him because she loves his books, and agrees to meet him.
Kristina Richards, actress, beautiful! Her one little problem, she becomes totally obsessed with any man she goes out with. One look at Ian when they meet and she is a goner!! He's suave, sexy, says all the right things and she is falling in lust every second that goes by. Ian is dying to have sex with her and little does he know, that it was his lucky night. Kristina takes him back to her place and the relationship begins.
Ian wants to be with her or should I say in her every second, but doesn't want to scare her with his addictive personality right away. Little does he know that her obsessive personality fits right into his addictive one. Their relationship goes from zero to 100 almost overnight. This fits perfectly into Ian's addiction, and for Kristina she is wary of the relationship, always worried that something will happen, because every other relationship ends the same way, the guy leaves her and she is left heartbroken. But she is determined to not let this relationship end like the others.
The book takes many twists and turns which I will not get into because I don't want to give the total plot away, but at some point Ian thinks to himself "I crave that mouth. I crave every part of her. In just a few short weeks, I've become a slave to my need for her. Addicted. Obsessed. Lost."
The ending is a cliffhanger, but this is a series, and we all wait patiently to see where this addictive/obsessive relationship will go.
The sex scenes are erotic, hot, dirty, sexy and needy since both of them have such emotional problems. I love that the book is written from the POV of Ian and Kristina!! That is such a plus because you know what each is thinking.
I will leave you with the last line from the book as told by Ian, "There is no running from what we are, Kristina."

An intense sexy read…
Kristina Richards, a Hollywood actress loves to read historical fiction. When she receives a request to meet a fan who happens to be one of her favorite writers she can’t say no. She’s been intrigued by him from the author picture in the back cover of his books. He is more than she imagined the man would be.
Ian Anwell, bestselling author of historical fiction has hit a writing dry spell until his eye is caught by the face of an actress on his television screen. He can’t stop thinking about her and after watching all of her movies he asks his publicist to obtain a meeting with her. That she would be a lover of the genre he writes in is auspicious for she has become his muse and before he meets her the words to a new book, an erotic novel, a departure from what he usually writes, have already appeared on the page.
This is the first of a four volume serial so do not expect an HEA at the ending which was at a perfect breaking point leaving you wanting for more but understanding the break for it mirrors what has just occurred in the story.
This was quite an intense sexy read. Two functioning broken individuals meet and their attraction that is electric rules them both. They are alike in more ways than they yet know. As the blurb states there is obsession and addiction, strong words that are synonyms and best describe what the protagonists suffer from before and after they meet in differing forms.
My attention was captured by these two intriguing characters. The alternating dual points of view heightened the storyline, their questioning of themselves and what the other must be thinking was fascinating. Their vulnerabilities brought about by what torments them were very real. I felt for them both and am looking forward to more of their story.
There is so much to each of these characters that the other does not yet know but with their intense feelings there is a tentative trust that allows their layers to slowly be revealed to each other as they share their history little by little. Will they like what they find underneath? Can they get past their fears?

4.5 -- Addiction -- stars
I have loved every book I’ve read by KM Scott. This is the second time I’ve read this novella and I enjoyed it just as much as the first time. It’s an amazing novella. It’s fast paced and erotic. Since it’s book 1 in this series, it ends with a cliffhanger that makes you want to read the next novella immediately! I can’t wait to read more about Ian and Kristina’s love story.
Ian is a bestselling author and he writes historical fiction books. Ian is easily addicted to things, like drugs, alcohol, sex or persons. He has been to rehab and hasn’t touch drugs ever since. But now he’s addicted to alcohol. One night, he’s watching the television and is fascinated by the actress Kristina. He watches all her movies all night long and the next day he wants to meet Kristina. Kristina is an huge fan of Ian’s books and is excited to meet him. They meet at a bar. They are both nervous and don’t know how to act or what to say. They eventually have a nice conversation. Ian asks if Kristina wants him to sign one of his books and Kristina would love that. At her apartment, they kiss. After that night, Ian is addicted to Kristina and she becomes a muse for his new book. Ian and Kristina meet again and Kristina is happy to be his muse. It’s the start of their secret relationship.
Ian and Kristina are great characters. They have their own secrets and the secrets are slowly revealed. Like I said before, Ian is easily addicted to things, but Kristina is also addicted to something. She’s addicted to love. She falls in love fast and hard. Some of her ex-boyfriends were with her because she’s famous. So now she tries to fall not too fast and not too hard in love with Ian. Ian doesn’t mind Kristina falling for him, because he can’t imagine life without her. Ian is a sweet, caring man. He doesn’t drink much when he’s with Kristina. When Kristina is away, he craves her and fantasizes about her. He’s great with words. He loves Kristina and thinks she is perfect. I also love the title and the secondary characters.

SILK : Volume 1 (Silk #1) by KM Scott
ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 19, 2015
I want her. I crave her. She's my addiction. The world knows me as Ian Anwell, New York Times bestselling author, but Kristina makes me want more. Much more.
I need him. I love him. He's my obsession. Everyone thinks they know Kristina Richards, but I'm more than what they see on the screen. So much more.
I'm his muse, and this is our story
~~~
REVIEW: 4 stars--SILK Volume 1 is the first installment in KM Scott’s adult, contemporary SILK erotic romance serial focusing on New York Times bestselling author Ian Anwell and actress Kristina Richards. Told from alternating first person points of view (Ian and Kristina) Volume one introduces Ian and Kristina.
Ian is an addict with an addictive personality-alcohol and heroin are his choices but Kristina becomes his new obsession. He is a man whose successes have made him rich and famous, but have also brought self doubt and numbness. Ian needs a muse for his next project and Kristina is ripe for the picking.
Kristina is an actress, whose star is on the rise. When the world famous writer Ian Anwell requests to meet her in person, Kristina finds herself falling instantly in love with a man she doesn’t really know. She, too, has an addictive personality and Ian is her latest dependence.
Their attraction is immediate; sex and lust are a constant need but Ian demands secrecy in both his personal and private life. The sexual imagery is graphic, erotic, and often. Their story is one of insta-love and obsession. Silk Volume 1 sets the tone for two people whose need for one another becomes all encompassing and magnetic.

Kristina is an actress, whose star is on the rise. When the world famous writer Ian Anwell requests to meet her in person, Kristina finds herself falling instantly in love with a man she doesn’t really know. She, too, has an addictive personality and Ian is her latest dependence.
Their attraction is immediate; sex and lust are a constant need but Ian demands secrecy in both his personal and private life. The sexual imagery is graphic, erotic, and often. Their story is one of insta-love and obsession. Silk Volume 1 sets the tone for two people whose need for one another becomes all encompassing and magnetic.

I fell in love with K.M. Scott's work with the Heart of Stone series. Even the Club X series was a good read. However, this one fell a little short for me. I had a bit of trouble connecting to the main characters. hat being said, the plot was different and kept me reading. There was still the high steaminess factor that Scott is known to deliver in this one as well.
Silk follows the story of recovering addict and best selling author Ian. He is between books at the moment and is struggling to find any inspiration to start his next project. That is until late one night and a movie marathon later he sets his sights on Kristina, his newest addiction. I liked how invested he became in the idea of her and how that sparked his creativeness. Kristina seems shy and reserved but Ian manages to bring out a side to her that she tries to keep hidden for fear of rejection.
The chemistry between them is hot. They get together often and push each others boundaries. Their honesty and upfrontness with each other helped to solidify their connection. I liked how together their addictions fed each others and I just knew that something bad was going to come of it. I was happy that Kristina stood her ground on certain things. I didn't expect this installment of the series to end the way it did. It was a nice change of pace from the way things were for a good bulk of the story. I look forward to seeing where Ian and Kristina go from here.

What a great beginning to a four part serial!! Volume one of Silk, introduces the reader to the main characters that this story is about. Ian, is a New York Times best selling author and Kristina is a movie actress. Both of these characters are flawed, in different but similar ways. Besides the baggage that they are carrying around, they are both all too familiar with what it means to be addicted or obsessed, to something or someone. They are both desperately seeking acceptance for who they really are. This is a short, steamy, and emotional read that will leave you wanting more. The good news is the next volume is only a few short weeks away.
K.M. Scott has done it again, she has a way of bringing her characters to life, and making the reader feel their pain or their happiness. Please do not read this book if you are expecting a happily ever after at the end, because it does not happen in this volume. But if you love to read about two people coming together, feeling each others pain and trying to make their way through life the best way they know how, then give it a try. As for me, I cannot wait on volume two, because I want to know more about these two imperfect souls and where they go from here.

5 Stars!
Wow! What an amazing start to a hot new series by this author. This book was sexy, naughty, dirty and totally unexpected!
This is Kristina and Ian's story. Ian is a best selling author. He is an addict and user. He has serious issues but he has found his new addiction. She comes in the form of an actress named Kristina that he sees on TV. After going through leaps to meet her, he finds she is a fan of his. What starts as a passionate affair with a man who has found his muse and a woman who is filling in her addiction turns into something more serious and possibly dangerous. Get ready for a sexy and addictive ride that will have you wanting to throw your kindle and demand book two!
Hmmm Ian is definitely interesting. I am not totally loving him but not hating him either. I think he needs a serious therapist, lol! But he is definitely an animal with a filthy mouth between the sheets. And Kristina... that chick definitely has issues too. Amazingly though, these two worked well together when they were together, but that ending for them.. WTF!
I recommend this book!

Being a blogger in the book world this was a little weird and felt a bit like a 'fly on the wall' read, haven't really explained that well but I know what I mean ☺ Ian is a NY Times Bestselling author who has a major addictive personality. He comes across Kristina one night watching her in a film and bang thats it, his addictive side kicks in and he literally watches ever film Kristina's ever been in that whole weekend. He then arranges to meet her. Little does he know that Kristina has also been diagnosed with an addiction to people but along with that addiction she's rather skittish too.
Both characters are written well, sexy time is well sexy and the heat factor singe worthy. I am intrigued as to where this is going to go with their secret, their worries and their addictions. This does finish on a small cliffie and it's definitely enough to give you that need to read on.
I received a copy of Silk in return for an honest review. My reviews are my own and are 100% honest.

Ian is an author who has overcome a heroin addiction, is struggling with a drinking problem and has now found a new addiction…..Kristina.
Kristina is an actress who falls for her men in a nano second and then she’s left devastated when they don’t work out.
Are two people who have quite addictive personalities right for each other?
This book is the first book in a series of 4 and is telling the story of Ian and Kristina. She has agreed to be his muse for his new book. They also have a lot of sex lol.
Nothing is left to the imagination in this book. The language used is quite hard, which I like.
I think this is a good start to the series and I’m looking forward to seeing where the author is going to go with this.

This was a weird one for me. I will just state from the off that I did really enjoy this book. I just really hated the characters especially Ian. He is just too needy, possessive and stalkerish, I'm excited to see where the author is going to take him.
I am an experienced enough reader to be able to enjoy the story even though I didn't like the characters. maybe this is the intent of the author.
I think Kristina will warm up, she is already showing signs of that backbone that I wanted her to have and I think as we progress through the volumes then I think she will be a great character.
Ian has a lot to do in the coming novella's and I'm looking forward to reading them.

5 star
I was pulled right into this short story. The story has laughs and heartbreak.
Ian sees Kristina on TV and starts watching all her movies. Not for the movies just to be able to see her. When he wants to meet her he finds out she is a fan of his. They meet for dinner that turns into more. He is an author and in need of a muse. Has he found his muse in Kristina? Or will he scare her away with his obsession of her?
I loved these characters and can’t wait to learn more about them. I felt I was able to connect with the characters and the story was a great read.
I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next story in this series.

This book was beyond dynamic. Ian, a recovering heroin addict is enamoured by actress Kristina. Soon they fall into a quick and very emotional and sexually charged relationship. And quickly become addicted to each other. You can feel the chemistry radiating off the pages of this book.
This book is all about addictions. To drugs, alcohol and even people. Was beautifully written and leaves you begging for more at the end. KM Scott hits it on the nail with this one. Between the addictions, the trials an author and a celebrity have to endure, to the romance. I LOVED this one. KM Scott is one of my fave writers! Please be on the look out for more of this series!!

Fabulous
This book is about Kristina and Ian and the journey through their relationship. Let's just say attraction and desire are just part of what makes this book a great read. Book 1 is just the beginning of this 4 book series. Its hot, erotic and makes you want more
Kristina and Ian each have issues that draw them together. One man's obsession starts this book and one woman's denial ends it. Well at least until book 2 which is scheduled for a mid March release so preorder it now

This is volume 1 of 4, they are not standalone books. This is the story of Ian and Kristina, he's a recovering drug addict best selling author and she is a beautiful actress.She becomes muse,and his new addiction which leads to obsession, she becomes addicted to him. Can their issues with love/relationships stay healthy? Can they survive? This is a different type of book for K.M., it's more of a darker erotic romance with a twist still has hot steamy sex!! I was gifted a copy by the author for an honest review and I purchased a copy

Ian is a recovering drug addict an alcoholic historical writer that became attracted to kristina who is an actress. He uses her as an muse for his upcoming book but is finding they are falling in love with each other. Will their secrets for their past ruin their relationship? It's a really good book.

2 people with addiction issues and more baggage than a Kardashian makes for an interesting relationship. I have a love/hate relationship with serials and this one is no different. I hated the ending but I will be reading the rest because the story had me hooked I want to know what the hell happened. This book is defiantly worth the read!

Alluring and a little twisted. I loved it! Ian and Kristen both agonize but seem to work when together. Their love making is off the charts hot. The need to know what will happen next in this cliffhanger has left me anxious to read the next installment. K.M. Scott has brought the characters to life in my mind! Book was gifted.
