Redeem Me is book
#2 in the Lost Souls Series by Eliza Freed, I was lucky enough to be given an
ARC in exchange for an honest review so here goes.
Book #1 in this
series Forgive Me is a brilliant book I gave it 5 stars here’s a link to my
review.
I think to say
that I had a strong reaction to the way Forgive Me ends may be a slight understatement.
There may have been some shouting, some angry ranting and then a solemn vote
that I’m #TeamJason through and through.
I was equal parts squealing with excitement and
scared witless to start reading Redeem Me. I have very strong feelings about
how I need this series to end, and I was terrified that Eliza Freed would send
this happily Ever After in the wrong direction.
Well I pulled on my big girl panties and read
Redeem Me and good lord this book is amazing!!!!
I’m going to just say now that this book gets a
big fat 5 STARS from me. But now I need to rant without giving away any
spoilers so please just bear with me.
#TeamJason#TeamJason#TeamJason#TeamJason#TeamJason#TeamJason#TeamJason#TeamJason
Ok so I just need to clearly state which corner I
stand in case you didn’t guess I’m totally #TeamJason.
Charlotte aka Annie starts this book broken and
in pain and its completely understandable. Because when you have a love that is
so epic that it consumes you and it then gets broken I’m amazed she survived as
well as she did.
Now Jason is hardly in this book (sob
#TeamJason) but when he does appear or gets mentioned I felt Charlottes heart
start beating again. Now he’s a bloody idiot he cheated and I’m not condoning
that, but he and Charlotte are soul mates, drawn to each other in a dysfunctional
all consuming love and that kind of passion, love and connection doesn’t just
go away!!!
Charlotte gets on with her life but she’s simply
not the same character she was in the first book. I felt her constant fight to
get over Jason and move on. At times when she was at her lowest I even kind of
wanted her to fall for someone else (only for a second) but truth be told you can’t
truly fall for someone else when you are still heart and soul locked into
another.
Noble.... Boo Hiss!!! I don’t dislike him, he’s
sweet and he loves Charlotte. I think it was obvious how he has always felt
about her and he is the perfect guy.
But just not the perfect guy for Charlotte!!!!
Amazingly Eliza Freed's flawless writing and her
obvious passion for this story flows out of every word and at times I almost
got on board. I could almost see the perfect happy ever after for Noble. But
then everytime I thought it Jason flashed into my head.
He may not be physically present in this book
but he’s there at the edge of every though, every action Charlotte takes is
second guessed. How would Jason feel about this, what would Jason do, what
would Jason say?
I lost myself in this book, my kids were barely
spoken to and I read it front to back in a few hours. I constantly checked how
much I had left waiting patiently for Jason to come back guns blazing.
What the F**k Jason!!! Where were you???
By the time it got to the Epilogue I was
stressed out, literally on the edge of my seat and starting to panic!!!
Noble knows something and I hope it’s what I
think it is!!
I NEED Save Me like right now!!! Eliza Freed
please, please, please put me out of my misery I just need to know PLEASE!!
I loved this book, I love this series!!!
Redeem Me gets 5 huge, life altering, heart beating
out of my chest stars.

She settled into Corporate America, learning systems and practices and the bureaucracy that slows them. Eliza quickly discovered her creativity and gift for story telling as a corporate trainer and spent years perfecting her presentation skills and studying diversity. It’s during this time she became an avid observer of the characters we meet and the heartaches we endure.
