In my opinion Possession was not like the first book and absolutely loved that it wasn't. I didn't feel as if everything was happening at once, the book stayed at a pace where i was able to actually feel with India and understand everything, i wasn't having to re-read pages because i had WTF moment. In Possession Mary portrayed India's heartbreak perfectly and i could really relate to her especially when she was asking Kellan to just give her a normal relationship. It was refreshing to read this book because at first you get to see into India's life and be with her friends and the more read i began to feel like part of the gang, it was a nice break from the usual sex-crazed frenzy i'm always reading about. To see India let loose, be with friends, and just be normal for a little while, well as normal as she can get while being stalked by some creep, it was a nice change . And of course the sex, there wasn't as much as i was expecting and it was honestly refreshing. In erotica books these days it's all about creating the best sex scenes and then building around it but Mary did it again in this book and she mad me feel more like the characters mattered. You learn more about India and get to see Kellan undertake the task of trying to be a better man for India. There was only one thing that kept me from giving this a full five stars and it irked me a little. It was the amount of times Kellan said "Baby" in on page, i began to feel like it was very overused. Overall it didn't alter my experience or my enjoyment of the book but it was one thing i thought i could have seen less of or even if there were other terms of endearment used. In the future though and the next book it's one thing i'm going to be looking for but my opinion about his does not mean that i think her writing is any less perfect.

“Possession” written by Mary E. Buras-Conway. I put my mind into India Leigh. I am India, I am India, I am overwhelmed. I just cannot believe that I am allowing myself to be controlled in this manner. I am hoping my man is intelligent enough to recognise his failings and to correct them. We are attracted to each other by powerful physical beauty and an animal passion. Not being into submissive/dominatrix scenes, I do not recognise the power of command, or, my instinct to submit to protection. Mary Conway describes this fight for control in a spiral of emotions. – It is a compelling read. - Honeysuckle Pear, 17-Jul-2017.

Some books, even in a series, will explain references when it brings up previous events. This one doesn't. You either try to have to forget you read it or sink, waiting for the life preserver known as details.
Time is an optical illusion. From one part of the chapter to the next, days, weeks, or months can pass. So I guess there's a lot of dead air in India's life. Even after the threatening note she gets last year - and with no other reference to it for months and months and months ....
Vulgar language out of the blue. Perhaps people talk like that; but this is our introduction to them. It makes the relationships seem juvenile, simplistic, and shallow.
Oh, yeah, now it makes sense why the MC in her mid 20s have to give us a play by play of her erotic dream. Cuz she was a virgin when and he popped all of her cherries in the previous book. So *now* there are details galore in the sex area.
And after the rekindle it, MORE details. With an elderly aunt. Some families are just friends, I suspect. No respect, no discretion, no common sense. "We're all adults here" doesn't really mean we need to talk about only sex. I talk about sex with my friends, too, but ... you know. In an adult way, not like beer drinking, high-on-weed, hormone-driven teenagers in a mall Food Court. Oh, nevermind, they took a page out of Trump's play book.
So after chapters of blah blah blah and skipping through time, comes an abundance of minute by minute movements because they're a couple again.
Not only is it sad that she has no life to write about when he's absent from her life, but it's pathetic a book revolves around it, when it claims to have more depth.
In possession, the only depth is his thrusts illustrated in the bedroom.
It does get 2.9 stars because overall correct grammar usage, sentence structure and editing was ingenius. A few formatting errors.
If there was any forewarning, I definitely wouldn't have entered the drawing for this giveaway and happily allowed another winner my spot, who knew what s/he was getting.
