RELEASE DAY BLITZ & REVIEW ~ The Letters: A Carnage Novella by Lesley Jones

The Letters: A Carnage Novella Book Summary

It's just a box of letters, right? 
Words that were written a long time ago. 
From a boy to the girl that he missed. From a man to the woman he loved. 
But what if those words carried more impact than anyone realised? 
Will they finally give Georgia the closure she needs and lessen the guilt she battles every day? 
Or will everything she thought she knew about the boy and man who wrote them and the life they shared be forever altered? 
All will be revealed in The Letters.
A story about life, love, and acceptance.






 5 STARS

I wasn't sure what to expect in this book but Mrs. Jones has done it again. The Letters ties all the Carnage story together beautifully. Lesley filled in some missing pieces and now my mind is racing back to the other stories. Who would of thought that Georgia would do this or Maca would do that? 

I love how Cam was always there for Georgia. I see Cam differently now on how patient he is with Georgia during her time of grief reading Sean's letters. Some of Sean's letters were very moving and others very surprising. I did realized how much I miss Sean. It was great to see all the characters come back to life in this book. I did get emotional reading, Lesley's writing style pulls you in and makes you feel the characters .....she is brilliant. Maybe Mrs. Jones will write about Sean's diary. (A girl can dream you know) But are we going to know more about RJ????
"You gave me back my life, and then you gave me a life. One that I could never have imagined, hoped, or dreamed of ever living.”
This book is a MUST read if you read Carnage 1 & 2 and Marley.

Marley: A Carnage Novel

Want to know what really happened in that hotel room in Paris?
Want to know if the rumours of Marley, Sean and their sexploits were true?

We got to watch Georgia fall apart but what was Sean going through in those four years they were separated? 

Marley will give you the answers but he might just break your heart along the way.

"‘So, they want me to write a book? They want to know about my band, my life, my loves and my losses. But they have no idea what they’re asking for. If I give them what they want, they’ll get so much more than the sex and drugs and the rock and roll they’re expecting. They’ll get the secrets that I’ve kept for so long, they’ll get an insight into the person I really am, or at least was. They think they know my story, they know nothing.

If I do this, if I write honestly and give them the ugly truth, people will get hurt. People that I love, people that have already suffered in the worst possible ways.

Do I do this, or do I walk away? Taking my secrets to the grave."

Marley is an adult contemporary romance. It contains content suitable only for grownups with an open mind. There are scenes of group sex which include m/f/m a little bit of f/m/m and even some f/f/f/m/m/f/f/f. There is drinking and drug taking involved. A lot of swearing, some Essex slang and some very high emotion. Please don’t complain after reading this book that you weren't warned. 

And yes, of course you’ll need tissues.
