Crazy Love You

By Lisa Unger

Book Overview

The explosive novel by New York Times bestselling author Lisa Unger, which the Providence Journal called "A simmering tale of romantic obsession and angst in the tradition of Body Heat or Fatal Attraction, laced with the noirish spirit of James M. Cain. Wonderfully crafted and beautifully executed."

Falling in love can feel like a dream...or a living nightmare.

Darkness has a way of creeping up when Ian is with Priss. Even when they were kids, playing in the woods of their small upstate New York town, he could feel it. Still, Priss was his best friend, his salvation from the bullies who called him "loser" and "fatboy"...and from his family's deadly secrets.

Now that they've both escaped to New York City, Ian no longer inhabits the tortured shell of his childhood. He is a talented and successful graphic novelist, and Priss...Priss is still trouble. The booze, the drugs, the sex--Ian is growing tired of late nights together trying to keep the past at bay. Especially now that he's met sweet, beautiful Megan, whose love makes him want to change for the better. But Priss doesn't like change. Change makes her angry. And when Priss is angry, terrible things begin to happen...

No Thrills in This Thriller!

Hey, I'm going to be honest! Why did I suffer through this? Well, because Lisa Unger has proven to be a very good writer with previous thrillers. Don't you just hate it when a good author just lets you down? The story revolves around a young man who has a very low self image due to his weight, acne, and addictions. The simplicity of the writing led me to believe I was reading a Young Adult novel (somewhere between 7th and 8th grade level). The story is about a haunting of a person and place but truly lacks suspense and mid way becomes repetative and predictable. No thrills in this thriller!
