Uncovering You #9
Possibilità
Prendi una pistola. Puntatela alla testa. Premi il grilletto.
Bum.
È carica? Non si sa mai.
Mettere la mia vita nelle mani di Jeremy Stonehart è così. Stiamo giocando alla roulette russa. Lui mette alla prova i miei sentimenti, mi spinge al limite e poi mi riporta indietro.
Posso lasciarlo, ma non lo faccio.
Sto aspettando il colpo di pistola per sapere se c’è una pallottola dentro, in attesa di sapere se ho Jeremy... O Stonehart.
E così, solo nel momento della verità potrò scoprire se ho raggiunto la libertà—o l’oblio.

Intense, Intriguing And Suspenseful!
Whew! My head is spinning! Every time I think that I have this story figured out, I'm thrown for a loop. This series has kept me guessing every step of the way.
The more details that come to light, the more I realize how little I know. Jeremy Stonehart is still an enigma. Is he a deeply-troubled guy that has had a change of heart and has found his redemption? Or, is he the same deranged sociopath I had him pegged for in the first book? One is as likely as the other.
This ninth book has Stonehart back in the forefront, with all his callousness and manipulative games. It seems that Lilly is once again a pawn to be used for his amusement. From remorseful and sensitive to cruel and detached, this book has Jeremy/Stonehart changing personas so frequently it is disorienting. He may be trying to make Lilly question her sanity, but I was beginning to question mine!
I have loved this series, but I'm glad to hear that the next book will be the final book in the series. The suspense has gone on long enough and I'm dying to see how everything plays out. This book certainly left me on the edge of my seat!
What will Lilly don't? Will she save herself from the inevitable abuse the man she loves is guaranteed to dish out? Or, will she try to break free from Stonehart's grip? Has he accomplished all that he set out to do? Was this all part of his master plan? I've got too many unanswered questions. I cannot wait until the final book is released later this month!

5 Stars!!!!

I started reading these books months ago. I was up to book five and 6 hadn’t been released yet. By the end of book 5 I had declared to everyone who would listen to me that unless this story ends with a very painful death for Jeremy Stoneheart I was going to be pissed. Fast forward several months I read 6 through 9. Thinking 9 would be the end to the story, otherwise I would have waited until 10’s release.
Now first off you must understand it is well written and well-crafted story. It is a story that seeps into your blood and makes it boil. I have sat here reading these books yelling at Lilly that Jeremy is liar. Scene after scene is about this stupid woman forgiving and trying to explain away Jeremy’s behavior. She chooses over and over again to believe him or take what he says at face value only to find out he was lying and manipulating her. I started just skimming past her ridiculous inner dialogue.
Sadly as the story progresses I find myself no longer even caring what happens to Lilly. I still won’t be satisfied with anything but Jeremy Stoneheart’s bloody painful death, but I have lost all caring for Lillys predicament based solely on the fact that she chose it for herself. Call it tough love, but at some point you lose compassion for people who put themselves in bad predicaments time and time again. She had every opportunity to break free, get help, she admits it, but she didn’t. So the book lost its edge with me once Lilly became a willing participant in the psychological and physical abuse inflicted upon her.
If she doesn’t care about her well-being, then why should I?
I will definitely read book 10 for the conclusion. I will pray it ends in psycho’s torturous death, but with the way things are going, Lillys dumb ass will probably marry him and get pregnant and let him collar their baby.
I’m truly sad the story went down this path.

Finally getting some answers to the mystery surrounding Jeremy Stonehart.
Rose what an evil woman she turned ou to be who would of thought she could be like that. Hugh Jeremys father sick and twisted no wonder Jeremy turned out is like he is.
I can't see a way out of this for Lilli, but I hope to god she still gets her revenge on the monster Mr Stonehart.
Book ten final book can't come quick enough.

I'm reading the entire series. Mixed feelings. At first, it feels like a read for beginners in Dark Romance, but as it continues, it's a bit more darker just for the sake of being dark (I feel). This and the final book are the darkest even the dove part was mild. If you eat meat, THAT part shouldn't shock you - if it did, then you're delusional. Even if it was her pet for a bit.
Won't rate this!

Jeremy is definitely crazy and it seems like he wants Lilly to join him in crazy town. Again, there were parts where Lilly is just rambling, making it hard for me to pay attention. Now, I am thinking it is her slipping into insanity. She keeps making excuses for Jeremy to abuse her and he places the blame on her for his actions. He starts to open up about Rose but it left me wondering a few things. He states he broke her and I'm wondering if he raped Rose to. I can understand why Rose and Hugh ended up where they did, but why was Charles sent there to? What did he do wrong to Jeremy? The series started off so good and with only one book left, I just hope that the last book doesn't disappoint. It would be nice to have Jeremy's pov about how he truly feels about Lilly because I don't think he loves her the way he says he does.
February 23, 2015
OMG what did I just read. It starts off with Lilly meandering on about how life is hunky dory in the messed up relationship she has with Jeremy Stonehart but as we know from previous books it all hits the fan further along the story. I almost feel like we are Lilly and Scarlett is Stonehart the way she tries to control our minds with her skilful writing. One minute we hate Jeremy the next we feel sorry for him. Do not get me started on the Lilly I love him but I want revenge and to make him hurt syndrome. And that final chapter!!! Grrr how the heck is all this going to end. I just haven't got a clue, this series just keeps on throwing up more shocking twists by the bucketload. Roll on the final book. I might have to lie down in a darkened room afterwards...... EEK

Take a gun. Point it at your head. Pull the trigger.
Boom.
Is it loaded? You never know.
But hope that it's loaded. Because shooting yourself seems like a much favorable action than reading any more books of this series.
If I had thought that Part 6 or 7 or 8 were the most awful, I was so wrong.
I actually feel like laughing right now considering the fact that I thought this series would turn out to be one of my favorites of all time.
And, trust me, the first 5 books make you believe that. They make you just love this series and appreciate the work of the brilliant author. Oh how the might fall
I should have realized this book will be awful from how the author clearly stated that Stonehart said "Get off me, Rose" but then Lilly, bless her dumb brain, heard him say "Don't touch me, Rose". I went back to check if I had read it wrong but, nope. It still said "Get off me" so I guess we should all blame Lilly's ears.
I don't get the point of introducing a twin into the story. It seems fucking pointless and a way of adding an additional 40 pages to the already painfully long book. And since the twin doesn't even appear for longer than a single scene, I hate his addition to the story even more.
I hate just about everyone in this God-awful story. Hugh. That tramp like Tracy. The unnamed woman who "stole Stonehart's heart". The board members. The fucking housekeeper Rose and even Charles. I even hate the fucking driver. Oh and I even hate Fey and Robin
Every single one of them is a meddling asshole keen to ruin the story for me completely.
I won't even comment on how much I loathe the hero, heroine. The rating should speak for itself.

Wow. Wow. Wow.
Jeremy is better than ever. He's the pillar (how convenient this word, hehehe) of this series and what makes it work. I know that I said that a few times before but it's worth it to repeat it.
Lily gets a more interesting twist in her personality, but most important is that she didn't lose her essence throughout the path Jeremy builds for her. That said, I still have my issues with her and makes me be on Stoneheart's team.

I am so so glad this is coming to end soon - only one left! Yes, I am cheering, almost ectatic that we are reaching the end of what I am going to dub as a (bad bad bad) Odyssey.
Uncovering You 8: Redemption (the 2-star review of is here) marked the downfall of a serial I had come to enjoy despite its dark and disturbing tones. As I wrote about Uncovering You #8: same old same old. This has become so freaking annoying. Lilly just keeps pissing me off. Strong character my ass: weakest woman on earth. Jeremy... that man is a psycho (and sadly the best character of the lot - at least he's true to himself).
What's worse, this story just keeps getting more and more confusing. The story line has lost itself in an ocean of contraddictions full of WTF-boats with sails that are so pissed off of keeping it afloat they are activily trying to catch fire and drown in this clusterfuck. Sorry, I'm not sorry. I can live with the previous 6 installments, #7 not really, but #8 and #9? Nope nope nope.
I just can't keep up anymore. I'm reading it and I find myself dropping the biggest F-bombs of my whole life (and that's saying something since I tend to drop them hughely anway), even asking myself why I keep going. The answer I am giving myself is the same I give myself when I go to the gym and can't take it anymore: "you've come this far, don't give up". I am not the type to start something and not go through with it and I certainly won't be starting with Uncovering you, though Scarlett Edwards sure is making it hard as hell.
To summarize: 2-stars, because I... don't know why I'm not giving this 1-star and just be done with it.

Alla tua scoperta 9: sedici capitoli di follia totale e sconsiderata. Già dopo aver letto appena due pagine ho cominciato seriamente a pensare che la vera psycho fosse proprio Lilly, perchè da Jeremy, ormai, mi aspetto di tutto, nulla può più stupirmi o sconvolgermi. Ma lei... come fa a dire di essere riuscita a COMPRENDERE ciò che J. le ha fatto? Come si fa a vivere situazioni così al limite e affermare di comprendere le motivazioni che hanno spinto il carnefice a fare tutto ciò?
Altra cosa che mi ha sconvolto è stata leggere che ha accantonato l'idea della vendetta perchè non riesce ad immaginare altro posto in cui potrebbe essere più felice se non al fianco di Jeremy. Felice? No, dico, felice??? Ma di cosa stiamo parlando? Devo essermi persa qualcosa o l'autrice è impazzita.
Di sicuro in questo volume vengono rivelate alcune verità di fondamentale importanza, uno sguardo sul passato di Jeremy e sulle persone che circondano il suo mondo.
Con una storia simile c'è da perderci la testa, nel vero senso della parola. La mente di Lilly è un profondo abisso in cui basta un attimo per naufragare. Le sue considerazioni sono quanto di più sconsiderato e strampalato possa esistere. E' stata danneggiata da Jeremy? Per me sì.
Al nono e penultimo capitolo, probabilmente, al posto dell'autrice, avrei sfoltito un po' i pensieri della protagonista, che ho trovato spesso ridondanti. Da lettrice ho l'impressione che la Edwards abbia voluto a tutti i costi allungare il brodo, dato che solo nelle ultime pagine ci ha mostrato qualcosa di nuovo.
Credo mi prenderò una pausa -ne ho davvero bisogno!- e poi mi tufferò sul tanto atteso finale.

Just when you think you kinda have a feeling for where things are going, you get a 180 about face! This is one of the best books in the series. The ending is going to be spectacular. You definitely must read the entire series, but let me tell you, they are well worth it. There are a LOT of questions answered in this book, but there is still a long way to go. What a mind f*! ck you didn't see coming! Just when you think Jeremy can and did redeem himself more of him is revealed. And believe me, the man is dark. His mind is definitely a scary place.
Their story continues in this book. After finally both realizing and admitting their love for each other, and you think there is a good chance that their HEA is in sight, Jeremy goes and done that. And that. And THAT!! What a complex character he is.
I am still holding out hope, but this one could go either way.

I just really want to know how this will end. I'm so glad to know that the next book will be the last because I don't know how much more anticipation I can take. Jeremy Stonehart is truly dark and this last book has shown him at his worst. Can it get any worse? It took me to a point where I thought "This girl needs to leave this crazy mofo already... as in, run out the door and never look back." However, throughout the book she justifies her reasons for staying. Her constant inner conflict makes readers feel like they are on this journey with her. I don't know that I would agree with her reasoning, but I just hope that all her fighting for him will be worth it in the end, whatever her MO is for staying. Lilly deserves justice for what she has endured.
Scarlett Edwards keeps her readers on their toes with this series. I can't wait for book 10

I swear, every time I think I have a handle on the plot, something else happens to throw me off. Jeremy's evil mind knows no bounds. His devious plans are limitless it seems. I want to call him a sociopath, but I actually believe that he truly loves Lilly. I guess it's best to list his sociopath qualities rather than fitting him with a label. He's definitely apathetic. The way he clinically decides to drug, abuse, and manipulate Lilly is coldblooded.
The scene of Russian Roulette was insane. And now that Lilly has decided to stay by his side, Jeremy finally shows her how completely corrupted he is. I want to know what his ultimate plan is for Charles, Rose and Hugh.

Holy SH*T! I've read all the books in this series, and I've struggled through a few and shake my head...trying to figure out these two characters...but I have to say, Jeremy is one f*cked up guy and I'm beginning to think Lilly is just as f*cked up for staying with him! But it's one of those things...I can't stop reading this series...I do hope, however that since Ms. Edwards is going to end this series in her next book, that she answers a LOT of questions!!!!

Jeremy is one sick and vindictive individual and Lilly really needs to make up her mind. Either she is with him or she isn't. Girl piss or get off the pot!
Hugh & Rose got what they deserved; Charles on the other hand I don't know what the deal is.
Oh well, off to read Uncovering You 10: The Finale

I don't think I can fully articulate the problems I have with this book. I knew picking up this series I was signing up for a dark read but even for me this is verging on too dark and also too drawn out. This is more of a personal preference, I know, but I hated the fact that this series is written in 125 page novellas. All I wanted was a full story inside at most, three books, not ten or eleven tiny chunks with massive cliffhangers each time. (I am trying not to spoil anything but) Some of the revelations that came out at the end of the book seemed out of place and the characters actions whether in the past or present felt completely out of character. I also think part of my dislike comes from how the book is categorized on Good Reads. It is labeled as erotica and romance when in reality it is more of a cross between a psychological thriller and a psychological horror novel. This is fine of course but it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I was going to push myself to suffer through the last book, considering the massive amount of time I've already invested, but thankfully a kind reviewer spoiled the ending and plot to it and because of how terrible it sounded I am not going to put myself through reading that. I am not normally that harsh of a reviewer but this book and knowing the ending to the series seriously makes me want to lower the ratings I gave to all of the previous books because of how much I detest it. The ending really affects how I view the previous books and I can't really foresee myself rereading them now.

So this one is not really any different from the last five books. We take a couple of steps forward. We once again have paragraphs and pages of rewording, questioning, restating the same topic over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over....but, and over. It's amazing how many but's, and's, if's, what's, because's, however's, finally's, actually's, and for some reason's can actually be used to cover a topic. But, by golly, this author has got that down pat.
At the moment I am really questioning my sanity for continuing with this series, but nine books in, I think that sanity question is mute. So I will read (skim) the last book. And yes, I skimmed probably 50% of this one. I would read the first part of the first sentence in a paragraph to see if a new subject was being addressed, and if not, I would skip until I found one where there was some action or change of topic.
Once again I will give this 3 stars...but that is really pushing it at this point. Depending on what happens in the final book, the over all rating of this series may go down. It's going to take a miracle for it to go up at this point. I am now wondering if the author did the whole 10 book thing just for money. This could have easily and justifiably been five books, and I guarantee the reader satisfaction and reviews would have been a lot higher, mine included.

Now she can never leave.
Be aware, this book has scenes of physical and mental abuse that may be triggers for some readers. But it is written very well.
OMG!
In this, the penultimate book, we see how truly cruel Jeremy can be.
Lily had her freedom, she could have left at any time, but now it's too late.
She's seen things and knows things that, now, Jeremy can never allow her to leave.
And don't even get me started on Rose.
I knew there was something about her, but even I didn't guess at that.
She and High get everything they deserve.
I don't know why Charles is paying the price too, though.I
The full depth of his cruelty comes when Jeremy says "Let's play a game."
Then he pulls a gun....

She's seen things and knows things that, now, Jeremy can never allow her to leave.
And don't even get me started on Rose.
I knew there was something about her, but even I didn't guess at that.
She and High get everything they deserve.
I don't know why Charles is paying the price too, though.I
The full depth of his cruelty comes when Jeremy says "Let's play a game."
Then he pulls a gun....

This is the 9th part of this series. I hate that this story is broken up in so many parts. I hate that I have to purchase another box set to complete the series. In this part we learn a little more about Jeremy and background. We also find out that he is crazy, just like his father. I enjoyed it and will be getting the next book to see if my unanswered questions will be answered. This was a good reads.

This series is so long and drawn out. I got to book 8 and just couldn't take it anymore. Throughout the series nothing and no one is as it seems...there are so many twists and turns, Secrets and lies It gives me a headache. Jeremy Stoneheart is some kind of bipolar sadistic psycho...and not in an endearing way. Lily is a complete idiot. Felt sorry for her at first but after awhile she's stupid.
Had enough.
Two stars because it had its good points, unfortunately the bad outweighs it.

Direi più che felice di averlo finito.
Diventato pesante e senza senso proprio. In questi libri ci sono tutti i topic dei libri un po’ mescolati ma che alla lunga stancano.
Devo dire che questo nono episodio l’ho letto saltando pagine e cercando di capire tra una pagina e l’altra gli avvenimenti, che ho capito benissimo.
Voglio solo finire questa serie e basta perché non ha più senso veramente.

A intriguing and complex emotional drama between two very unique individuals. One a man driven by a tragic past ,forced by his quest for revenge against a innocent young woman who doesn't even know that he's using her to punish her father through her. Their relationship is violent, dangerous and erotic. The author weaves a mysterious tale with characters that are amazing and flawed.

The real Jeremy is revealed
Finally we see the man behind the mask. He is a tortured soul full of hatred and passion and pain. To hear his tale is sad beyond belief and to see his wrath is amazing. This is a man who shares his pain with the ones who are guilty of causing it. I want to root for him to be good, to no avail Jeremy is pure evil.
