Review

THIS BOOK DESERVES MORE THAN 5 STARS!!!!! I have to start out by saying OH MY GOD!!!! Unbelievably, this is Lyssa Cole's debut full length novel, and it is incredible! Stripped Bare will take you on a huge roller coaster of emotions starting from page one. Once I started the book, I was unable to stop, always being on the edge and not knowing what was about to happen next. Lyssa Cole has found a fan for life and I hope that she continues to write this amazing and beautiful stories. ~~Christina, Goodreads

Ah!! This book was so amazing!! I had my doubts at the beginning but Lyssa blew it out of the park. And just when you think it's over, it's not! I love her writing style and everything flowed so easy. My eyes were glued to the words I couldn't put this book down. Definitely a fun and easy read, but with a lot of action and a rollercoaster ride of emotions. ~~Liv Moore, Author

This is a page turner!! I went in, having not read any of the authors first books. I was a bit doubtful in the beginning, but she proved me wrong. I love books like this. I love when you find a 'new-to-me' author, and they make you a believer. The plot and writing style were smooth. The characters were well developed, and I promise, you will NEED to know the fate of Jax and Maddie! If you are looking or great chemistry and all the feels, give this a one-click!! ~~Tiff, Goodreads

I loved this book! It was dark and parts were horrible because of what happened to the heroine but it definitely had a lot of bright spots. The hero was great! Smooth and charming and incredibly hot. Jax and Maddie are explosive on the page and I loved every moment of them together. This book had me from the start and I fell in love. Anybody who loves dark romance will love this book! It was so good! Definitely check this out! ~~Rebecca, Goodreads

An exceptional debut from Lyssa, with a plot that'll grab you emotionally and have to riveted. This page turner is action packed with twists and explosive chemistry. ~~SouthernAngel, Goodreads

Easy to read this book for me! I had to keep stopping. There were so many errors and for me, take a lot out of the book. I got what you were trying to say! The storyline was good. Girl runs from her parent, her abusive father and the spawn he called son who helped. I wish I got the back story as to why her father hated her so much! I have so many questions. He said the mom cheated with her guard! Was she born from that affair? So he treated her like trash because of it? Or was it because he felt all woman were indisposable? So many questions!

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Very riveting! The story will keep you on the edge of your seat to find out what happened next. This book was hot and has some steamy sex scenes. This book is also intriguing, with some humor, and it also involves romance, mystery, and suspense. I loved how the romantic relationship builds between the two protagonists (Maddie Kaplan and Jax Brownell). Together, their banter is refreshing, and their sex is off-the-charts hot. When reading the story, it may make you feel sad, confused, appalled, and even euphoric. What moves me is just how Lyssa Cole was able to make their situation seem credible and realistic—their hurts, ambivalence, etc. Maddie is the daughter of the largest crime family, and after her mother died, her father abused her in the most appalling ways for his business. Maddie found the courage and determination to finally run from her father. While on the run, Jax’s PI company is hired by her father to find Maddie. When Jax finds Maddie, he is flabbergasted by her beauty. Why did Maddie run from her father? Why does Maddie’s father want to find her that he had to hire a PI, and what type of business does he use his daughter in? Will Maddie be able to trust Jax? The chemistry between Jax and Maddie grows more potent the more time they spend together. A fiery chemistry ensues between the two and hot DAMN was it HOT! The flames near leaped off the pages. There are several plot twists and turns within the story that makes it interesting. The scenes are well written, fast-paced and flow smoothly from one scene to the next. Trust me, you will enjoy reading this book, and you will not be disappointed because this book will pique your interest and draw you in from the beginning to the very end.

Maddie escaped hell, there is no other way to describe what she went through. Jax was hired to bring her back, but from the moment he laid eyes on her, he knew this was going to be different, she was going to be different. These 2 found love in unimaginable circumstances. "When you strip everything away, what is left? Love. It's always love". It was an amazing read, full of twists, turns and angst, and mostly love.

Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2019
3.5 ⭐️’s. This was a great read. Maddie has escaped her father and the evil world that surrounded her. She’s trying to learn to be independent and who to let into her new life when she meets Jax. Can she trust him?
Jax wanted her the moment he saw her. He kept reminding himself that she was just a job, one he needed if he wanted his career to take off. But is he ready to give her up?
A great book and a fun read!
