BURNING THROUGH GRAVITY — they soared so high so fast they never expected the fall. 

Two beautiful souls.

Two seemingly innocent deceptions.

Once they meet, Stevie and Ford explode into one another in a ball of lust, hotter than a July moon. Ford is assertive, dominate and in control, that is until Stevie brings him to his knees. He thinks she’s the most beautiful woman he’s ever met both inside and out. Stevie thinks he’s sweet, and sort of goofy—of course it doesn’t hurt that he drips sex like honey. 

Stevie is starting to fall hard for Ford.

And Ford is all in with Stevie.

She wonders if he could ever forgive her for what she’s about to do.

She wonders if she wants him to.

They say love conquers all.

Her lie will cost him everything.

*My Thoughts*

Note: This review contains no spoilers

After reading the last page, I was stunned...speechless! There were no words, yet, to describe what I was feeling after reading Burning Through Gravity! This is definitely a story of complex characters!

I absolutely loved Stevie and Ford's story! I was so taken by Stevie's view in life, especially after her tragic loss. Ford has had his fair share of loss as well. But, when these two come together, it's a whole new story. They each come together with secrets, but both wanting and searching for love.

Addison Moore has written a beautiful love story filled with desire and longing, as well as mystery, deceit, betrayal...and twists! Yes! There was some suspenseful twists to this couple's story. Wow! I loved how these twists in the story were interwoven making everything and everyone connected in one way or the other. It will make any reader take a double take...hahaha! Because I did!!! The flow of the story was consistent in making me fall in love with Stevie and Ford...and being angry with those that want to come between them...haha! It was easy for me to follow and fall in love with the lives of these characters. I loved how the issue of domestic violence/battered woman syndrome was subtly interwoven into the story, but still made an impact with the characters and their relationships with each other.

Stevie and Ford had their secrets... and their deceptions just made it that much more a struggle to come back to the truth.

Burning Through Gravity pulled me into their world from the beginning. Once the lies started, Stevie and Ford couldn't stop lying, and made it that much harder for them to come clean. But, in the end, is Stevie and Ford's love for each other strong enough for them to come clean with the truth and forgive each other? Well, I found out after reading this book. And, I must say, if it wasn't for my job and other responsibilities, I would have read this book nonstop...maybe I would have finished in one day! That's how much I didn't want to put the book down! I was just so taken in with this "game" Stevie and Ford were playing while they fought against falling in love with each other. There were moments when I gasped when the twists in their story came about...making me take a double take...hahaha! And, finally, when all the truths were revealed, I was stunned...in a good way!

*Excerpt*

“Children don’t drown where water should not exist, not in the wishing pools remembered in the hearts of deserts. No, it could not be. What happened to Jeffrey was no accident. His was a willful killing, and a cruel one. There stood a mimic in the moonlight, connected by deeper roots to something else, something down in a pond beneath a pond, a grotto, where it fanned its saffron gills and waited, just as it had haunted the seas of time’s beginning. It waited for a chance to lure young life to an early death. Because that’s what it was all about. That’s all that it did.”

*Excerpt*

      Becky's point of view

“I already asked you this question earlier, but do you like your suite?”

           “It cost too much, Matt. But, yes. I would be crazy to say no. I need to find a way to thank you.” My tone came out flirty at the end.

           “I know how you can.” His tone was sultry, luring me in. Oh shit! What was on his dirty mind? “I want you to touch yourself.”

           What? “Matthew,” I laughed softly. “You’re not here.”

           “Just pretend I am. Have you ever had phone sex before?”

           I almost choked on my own saliva. I’d heard of and done many things before, but this was a first. When I didn’t answer, Matthew continued. “I can’t believe I’m going to be your first.” He sounded so proud. “I’m going to make you feel so good.”

           His words alone were turning me on. Holy shit! “You mean I’m going to make myself feel good.”

He chuckled lightly. “However you want to see it.”

The preview porn on the television wasn’t helping either. I thought about watching it, but Matthew or Max was going to pay the bill, and no way were they going to find out that one of us watched one. “This isn’t going to work,” I said. But my hand was already kneading my breast. I pretended it was Matthew’s hand instead.

           “I’m stroking my dick, Becca. I’m pretending your tongue is licking it.” Whether Matthew was really doing what he said he was doing, I didn’t care. It was working for me. “Put your hand on your clit, Becca, and touch it the way I do it. Pretend it’s my finger. Imagine me sucking it hard there, baby. Can you feel me?”

           Holy fuck! “Yes,” I replied, feeling my chest rise and fall with pleasure that was building inside me.

           “Now…stick your finger inside and pretend that’s my dick. I’m going to pretend I’m inside you.”

           Hearing Matthew groaning into the phone brought me to another level of excitement. There was no way he could fake that sound. It was too genuine, and every moan made the urge for him that much more intense. “Can you feel me, Becca? Push in deeper.”

           “It’s not the same,” I whimpered. My body was in limbo. I couldn’t satisfy myself, and the more I tried, the build up was too unbearable.

           “Want me to finish it for you, Becca? You want me inside you?” His tone seethed into the phone in the most delicious way. I was already losing my mind, yearning from the need of him.

           “Yes, but you’re not here.” I said it somewhat angrily, trying to tame the throbbing ache between my legs. I was mad at him for putting me over the edge to the point my pants were half way down, my breast exposed, and I was now watching the stupid porn. How I got to this point, I had no clue. It was as if his words were magic, controlling my actions.

           “I promised before that I wouldn’t start something I couldn’t finish. Now…open the door.”

Nadia Conrad has big dreams, and she’s determined to make them come true.

*Excerpt*

“Where are you from?”

Ah, an actual question. That means I can ask one back.

“Nebraska, toward the South Dakota and Wyoming side, if that helps.”

“I’ve never met anyone from there.”

Michigan was a long way from home. “I usually get ‘not in Nebraska anymore’ jokes, and then I have to decide if I’m going to remind them that’s Kansas or play along.”

“What do you usually do?”

“Play along.”

“You don’t like conflict, huh?” He sounded normal tonight, as if talking to me wasn’t an unpleasant chore anymore.

That was a relief since I’d come to look forward to these moments with him so much. More, maybe, than I’d like to admit.Right. Friends. I distracted myself by considering his question. “Not if it can be avoided. I’m not what you’d call pugnacious, no. But I like to think I don’t back off important issues. What about you?”

“No.” His voice was bleak and quiet. “I don’t. Even when I should.”

Wow, that took a dark turn.

If I could’ve jumped onto his patio without breaking an ankle or waking Sam, I’d have been down there like a shot. The distance between us seemed intolerable, and from the knot in my throat, I didn’t see how I could live another second without touching him, finding out if his hair was as soft as it looked or what he smelled like. I wantedhim in a way I never had before.

In high school, I had a boyfriend who played basketball, and we broke up when I left the state. It was a rational decision, and I didn’t miss him that much once I was gone. My freshman year, I went out with a lot of different guys, one date here, two dates there, but I never clicked with anyone enough to focus on them. Sometimes there were hookups with no strings, no expectations. Classes, friends and work seemed a lot more important. The intensity of this attraction was foreign and frightening, if exhilarating. I might already be backing off if I had the faintest sense that Ty was jerking me around on purpose.

Wish he didn’t make me feel this way. It’d be so much simpler if I could friend-zone him.

I realized I still hadn’t touched his verbal grenade. “We all have things we’d do differently in hindsight.”

“What is it about you?” he asked in a wondering tone.

“Huh?”

“You make me…better. Calmer.”

“Like a sedative?” I snickered. It was the least sexy thing a guy had ever said to me, including a junior high squeeze who said my face wasn’t actually that bad.

He laughed, too, a sheepish sound. “I didn’t mean it like that. Just…I’m worried pretty much all the time that I’m dropping the ball somewhere, about to face-plant, but when I come out here and hear your voice, everything backs off like ten steps. I can breathe again.”
