** review for BareNakedWords **~Please do not read if you have not read ‘Rose of Thorne’, could contain spoilers~“One man owns every part of my soul, while another man holds my heart. Two men, two loves...one choice.”OH MY!!!....just.....Mia has left me completely dumbstruck with the latest instalment of the Thorne Trilogy. I mean, really dumbstruck. The ending of Thorneless...GAH!!!!! I had to go straight in to starting the third book as I COULD NOT leave it like that. I’m still reeling after that ending.I have to start by saying though, if you haven’t read Rose of Thorne, do so now. This is a continuation of the first book and picks up right where Rose of Thorne left us.After discovering a huge secret Sebastian had been keeping from her, Skylar flees her and Sebastian’s apartment in nothing but her pyjamas and barefooted.She is left completely broken by the one person she didn’t think would hurt her.“Yesterday my life had been perfect, but today it’s shattered. I’m stripped to the very core of my being. My dying soul lay haemorrhaging before me. He’s ruined me at every cost from ever loving again.”That is until Lucas Drake re-enters her life and vows to put back the pieces of Skylars heart back together, and forget all about Sebastian.“Yes, right now my gorgeous girl is lost, but I’ll help her find herself. She’ll learn to laugh and love again. I just pray that when she finally does, it’s me that she loves in the end.”Lucas is a loving and caring man and I really felt for him in this book. He goes out of his way to help bring Skylar back to the ‘living’ and he succeeds. He truly loves her and it shows in everything he does.Skylar tries to give Lucas what he wants; she tries to love him back, but the truth is her heart and soul still belong to Sebastian.“I want to love him. I want to be happy. Somehow, I just don’t think I’ll ever be able to let go of the man who still owns my heart.”And if you think Sebastian is out of the picture, it’s not going to happen.“There is no way I am letting the love of my life go. I’ve kept away for far too long. Whether she is willing to right now or not, I’ll fight for us. What Skylar and I have is beyond epic. Our love isn’t like anything you see every day. People live their entire lifetimes without ever witnessing this. We are meant to be together and I’ll be damned if I allow Lucas Drake to have what is mine. She is and always will be just that—mine.”Mia takes you on one hell of a rollercoaster ride with Thorneless. I yelled, and cried and literally wanted to throw my kindle across the room. The twists and turns; you don’t see coming, at all. And the ending; again, it will leave you with your heart in your throat, mouth wide open and rushing to start the final book.I loved that it was again told in separate POV’s, as it gives you a better understand and insight into the minds of the main characters and what they’re feeling.Sebastian has my heart. Don’t get me wrong, I like Lucas and think he’s very sweet but I will always be Team Sebastian. Skylar and him belong with each other.....I just hope they can work things out and find each other once again.I cannot say enough about this book. I truly, truly loved it and couldn’t put it down until I finished it.Thank you Mia; for again giving us an amazing and emotional book. I. LOVED. IT!!!! I love this book, what happens is totally expected, from start to finish I could not put it down. At times I got frustrated with skylark as she was yoyoing back and forward to much between men, I love the twists and turns through out. I suggest to an,home who's not read these books to give them a go. Well written, great story line, fantastic characters. I give it 4.5 stars because I hate cliff hangers! Fortunately it's not long until book 3 is released.
