Blind Side

She knew it was a mistake almost as soon as it happened. Georgie made the mistake of falling into bed with her longtime friend Julian. It was just one night and Georgie has no interest in pursuing more than their friendship, but Julian has other ideas. He becomes obsessively jealous of Georgie and she starts to be afraid of him. It’s around this time that she meets Russian Nikolai and begins to fall in love. Obviously, somethings got to give, but readers may be surprised at just what that is. Creepy and intense, a woman’s worst nightmare

Wow, this book totally started my new year with a bang. Not at all what I expected and the blur doesn't give it enough credit.
There are so many great strands to the book.. Georgie's mistake sleeping with her friend, turns both their lives upside down. Julian's jealously when Georgie meets Nikolai, an ex Russian soldier, is frankly creepy and sad.
This book flowed at the right speed and was very clear throughout that the author put so much effort and research into making every page feel real and completing a complex yet engaging read.
If you're looking for something a little different from your normal thrillers then please try this real. It has a little something of everything.

This book gripped me from the very start, although not at all like my ‘usual’ reads. The characters were compelling and the storyline, although quite a simple base, made compulsive reading. The book is informative about life in the Russian army and Chechnya and it gives the book an interesting side. There is an alternative voice appearing sporadically throughout the book and I found myself quite wary, along with the main character Georgie, trying to predict what might happen. The whole scenario really held my attention as the problems both Georgie and Nikky face in life, relationships and work, are issues, fears and areas that we could all face too. A well-written book - thank you Jennie Ensor!

Things aren't always as they seem. Georgina is learning this the hard way. Three if the most important men in her life, her father, her best friend, Julian, and her boyfriend, Nicholai. Each of these men are hiding something. Is it being in a terrorist cell, a murderer, or a cheater. Georgina will have to find out soon, because her life is in danger.
A great psychological thriller. Keeps you on the edge of your seat!

Gripping storyline and plot and very unexpected from what I was expecting it to be. The author has written a very engaging stories which keeps the readers captivated to the stories .The plot and story was well developed . Definitely worth reading this book.

An enjoyable book where you get to see the dark side of unremitted love. Set in London in 2005 Georgie makes a mistake and sleeps with a friend Julian whom she has known since college. She does not have feelings for him beyond friendship but he declares his love for her which drives a wedge between them. Georgie meets Nikolai an illegal Russian emigrant whom has had issues in his past back home in Russia. Julian can not stand seeing Georgie with a lowly foreign labourer and starts a vendetta against them which ends in an ultimate showdown.. A truly enjoyable read. Highly recommended.
