Title: Tap Left
Author: A. Zavarelli
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: November 2, 2017
Former hot mess seeking dysfunctional relationship single, well-together male. Sanity preferable.
From now on, I’m going to do everything right. I’m going to make good choices. Say goodbye to the bad boys, narcissists, and emotionally unavailable men. Because starting today, I’m a girl on a mission.
Find a man to walk me down that aisle.
It’s a good solid plan, but there’s only one tiny hiccup.
Adrian Daire.
I’ve asked for his help because if anyone can make me marketable, it’s him.
Only problem?
He’s also one of the aforementioned emotionally unavailable bad boys/ narcissists. Oh, yeah and he slightly crushed my soul once before. But no biggie. I’ve got three whole weeks to exorcise him from my head and my heart… for good.
Holy tension!
This is the first time I've read this author and I thought this novel was terrific.
"It doesn't matter how long I've known him, I'll never get used to the way the air punches my lungs when he walks into a room."
Lola Bell and Adrian Daire have a history. The tension between them is a mixture of sexual attraction, hate, and something much deeper. For over a decade, Lola can't understand what keeps Daire in her life. Why does he insist on staying in contact with her when it's obvious he despises her. She, in turn, can't stand to be around him, no matter how much her body might say otherwise. There's too much bad blood between them to overcome.
In an impulsive moment of madness, she asks for his help. She's desperate to find a prince amongst all the frogs she's met. Daire takes her through a Pygmalion-type transformation, which tests his own self-restraint.
"He's order, and I am chaos. We don't mix."
The more time they spend together, the more their wills are tested. And, what happens when everything Lola believes to be true about the past is really not as it seems?
This was a fabulous book. It was tempestuous, passionate, super sexy and really emotional.
"For so many years, I have carried these feelings. I have tried, and I have failed to rid myself of Adrian Daire."
Lola is sassy and confident, and generally doesn't really care what anyone thinks. She's walked her own path for so long. She just wants someone to share her life with.
"It's a sickening realization, but I want to own Lola. I want every part of her marked by me."
Adrian is such a tortured soul. His desire for Lola burns bright within him but the ugly, painful past is hard to leave behind.
Fantastic, emotional story, and I loved how the truths from the past are revealed. Thoroughly recommend.

A. Zavarelli is a book junkie, cat lover, and traveler when plagued by intense cases of wanderlust. She likes all things chocolate, books that come with warnings, and putting her characters through hell.
Her tales have been known to flirt with darkness and sometimes court it unabashedly altogether. Revenge themes and tortured souls are her favorites to write and this gives her an excuse to watch bizarre and twisted documentaries in her spare time.
She is slightly obsessed with Theo James and funny animal memes. If you don’t mind these things, you should add her on facebook.
