Book Review and Giveaway for Bloodstained Beauty by Ella Fields

BLOODSTAINED BEAUTY
by ELLA FIELDS

Fresh out of college and headed straight for my dream job, I didn’t think things could get any better.
Then I met my dream man.

In an instant, my happy ever after had begun.
The life I’d stumbled into was beautiful, and the man I loved was perfect.
But perfection comes at a cost, and I’d slumbered through all the alarms.

Then I met my nightmare.
The man whose bright eyes held untamed darkness.
The man who disarmed me with his peculiar behavior.
The man whose cold, merciless hands shook me awake.
In an instant, questions started to dismantle my happy ever after.

But whoever said the truth would set you free was wrong.
It wasn’t going to repair the cracks in my naive heart.
It wasn’t going to caress my face with comforting hands and reassure me it was all just a dream.
No, the truth shoved me down a rabbit hole, and I landed in the lair of a real-life monster.

REVIEW: 5 STARS

"It was then I realized you could hate and love a person at the same time."

I feel like I need to put this out there:

Since every single thing anyone gives away about the plot or the book will be a spoiler, I am just going to say: 

READ THIS BOOK. 

IT WAS AMAZING. 

THE END.

I am by no means an expert on DARK reads. I have read very few of them and I know my tastes are very picky and quite subjective when it comes to reading such a heavy or dark subject matter, but holy hell. If every single dark book did to me what this one did, maybe I should start reading them more often. Ella blew me away with this book, this story....this journey.

Completely arrested. Solely enamored. Massively hung over. That's where I am sitting today, one day after reading this book and being all twisted up because this HERO? Well, dammit....that's a spoiler.

I fell in love with him.....you know, HIM but: spoiler.

The title was completely fitting too, because.....well, yeah: spoiler.

The characters and the story arc were so....oh wait: spoiler.

I mean, if I were to go about and explain how much I loved this story, I would be able to tell you that when I found out what spoiler was doing when he spoiler her, then I would totally freak out!! I mean, how do you let spoiler happen and then move on from that? The spoiler that he spoiler pissed me off and I cannot even begin to tell you how much that hurt my heart. But knowing that spoiler was there and ready to spoiler, then I think my heart was able to calm down and follow spoiler along when spoiler came out and spoiler everything. Oh!! And spoiler was too spoiler for this book. Oh my goodness.....yes. <--- Ridiculous, right? I can't do it. There was so much to this story and the intricacies were abundant. I cannot wait to share this with everyone!!!

I know we all like to look for the constructive side of a review...or something constructive in general. I wanted more. That's my constructive criticism. I wanted more of them. Their story. Their attitudes. I wanted it all. The end buttoned up quickly, but understandably. But I just finished and I already miss them....I'm sad that it's over and I'm sure the hangover will go away soon. Maybe.

So you see, I realize I usually give a (better) review of a book and how it made me feel, but in this case, in order to tell you how I feel, I have to name names and explain plot points. Clearly can't let that happen, because....spoiler. I wasn't entirely sure I completely understood {{or believed??}} when Ella Fields said she had never written anything like this. Well, she wasn't lying - I have never read something like this from her. I needed answers. One page after the next revealed more curiosities. Her words are rich, and the meaning behind them is so calculated and the intent is always well meaning, but it's seeing between those lines is what makes her reads that much more intriguing. I could have read spoiler and spoiler's story all day long...I want more of them.
