Two authors. Obsessed with the idea of love. . .what could possibly go wrong?Marisa This should be a love story. Everything's in place for it to be. The perfect lines, the perfect souls, but you see, Justin thinks it's a game. He thinks I'm his pawn, but he couldn't be more wrong. Every move he makes, I'll block him. Every time he thinks he's about to seize me, I'll run. Some men underestimate the power of the queen because they're too busy playing king. They forget she's the most powerful piece on the board. And love is not a game I'm apt at losing. What will it take for him to realize I'll never be his pawn, but I'll happily play his queen.Justin She wants a love story. And while I've set it up just like I do my stories, it's not love I'm after, it's the chase. Marisa thinks she can outplay me. Even though I'm always one step ahead of her, she keeps me on my toes, which is why I don't underestimate her. Not one bit, but it seems she forgets the game's not over until the king is dead. And she'll never kill me, because I'll make her love me. And then. . .checkmate. I win. Love is not a game, but the chase certainly is.… (altro)

I'm not sure what to say about this book. On one hand, it was an easy, dark escape that kept me turning pages. On the other hand, it wasn't remotely what I expected, and the writer needs to hire a good proofreader.

Cole's White Pawn is about obsession, and the dark turns love can take when paired with obsession, lust, and jealousy. It's more psychological suspense than romance, and more horror than steam. And while I don't think anyone would call the characters likeable, this book has the feeling of a train wreck because it's just that hard to look away from, predictable as it might be. (Though, I admit, I didn't expect it to get quite so dark as it did.)

So, if you want some horror paired with your romance, or vice versa, this might be an interesting read, but I'm not sure who I'd recommend it to, or if I could even really recommend it. ( )
