But was he truly a stranger--or did Kayden know her before his supposed rescue? Tormented by the potential betrayal he denies, with fleeting memories of a bombshell in her recent past, Ella must face a hard reality. Every action has consequences . . . and trusting Kayden, the one thing she most desires, might result in the direst consequences of all.

Demand
By: Lisa Renee Jones

5 Star review by Kristie K.

The second installment in the Careless Whispers series by Lisa Renee Jones, Demand picks up where Denial left off. Ella’s fragile trust in Kayden is shaken, and we wait to see if this is the end of their burgeoning relationship or if it will further solidify them together. Ms. Jones keeps the suspense high, and with every answer we get, another mystery surfaces. Ella is becoming more and more confident in her own abilities, though the amnesia still creeps up and causes frightening lapses in time. The constant unknown of when her memories will surface hangs over them like a guillotine. When Ella believes that someone within The Underground may be working against Kayden, suspicions arise around several key players, making Ella concerned for all their safety.

I have always loved suspenseful mysteries, and Ms. Jones definitely delivered in both installments of the Careless Whispers series. I have always had mixed emotions about cliffhangers, as I can see why the author would use one, but at the same time I have a hard time staying interested, or remembering the previous book when the new one comes out. Since the previous installment of this series did end on a cliffhanger, I was concerned I wouldn’t remember what was happening. Ms. Jones helped me out with this issue by putting a short recap of the previous events at the beginning of the book. I thoroughly enjoy the style of writing, and the flow is seamless. The characters are likable, and completely believable. The sexual tension is palpable, and the love scenes are HOT. I totally enjoyed the twists and turns the storyline took, and both loved and despised the new players we were introduced to. Ms. Jones proved why she belongs on the bestsellers list with this book. A definite home run. I can’t wait to see what happens in the third installment. I only wish I didn’t have to wait to read it!

Oh. My. Gosh. Lisa Renee Jones, you never fail to surprise me! One would think, after reading (devouring) so much of your work, that I would eventually begin to see a set pattern in your stories and be able to figure out where they're going. Nope. Not happening to this lady! Lisa Renee Jones continues to weave a tale of intrigue, suspense, betrayal, romance with twists and turns you'll never see coming.

After diving into Ella's story, which I could not WAIT for after reading Lisa Renee Jones' Inside Out Series, I had so many questions that were finally answered in Demand … but, wait! Now, my head is spinning again with new questions from the cliffhanger Lisa left us with in this splendid story!

How can you not fall in love with Ella? She was the mystery for the entire Inside Out series (you must, must read that, by the way!), but she went missing. Finally, we are finding out more and more about Ella. Or, are we? Are we really? I recently read another Inside Out series book, Behind Closed Doors, recently released by Lisa Renee Jones, and are you kidding me???!!! Lisa, how could you create all of these questions I now have about Ella???!!! OMG! Who in the world is Ella? Really?

Oh, I am soooo intrigued with everything about this series and I'm just madly in love with Kayden. No surprise there, since I'm madly in love with all of Lisa Renee Jones' hot, sexy, alpha males **fanning myself**. My suggestion to everyone out there: READ THE INSIDE OUT SERIES (yes, all of it) by Lisa Renee Jones and then begin reading The Careless Whispers series. Lisa Renee Jones will take you on the ride of your life with a touch of everything a person can feel. Oh, and you will definitely feel all of your emotions pulled out, spun around, reshaped and put back inside of you - leaving you gasping for breath and asking yourself, "What just happened to me?" Yes. I promise.

Don't skip reading this series and Lisa's other books. I've never read an even mediocre story from Lisa Renee Jones. All of them are brilliant!!

Cliffhanger resolution could have been better but still a good book 2 of 3

Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2016

I liked this book a lot but it didn't quite have the zing of the first book. I still loved the story and the characters although we are learning about them at a snails pace. I think the reason I'm not willing to give this a 5star is because of the double cliffhanger from the first book was somewhat resolved in the second but at a leisurely pace. I was waiting for more bang after the first book's ending and the fact that I had to wait so long for the resolution. To be fair, I'm not a fan of cliff hangers and to wait just builds up what the solution needs to be in my mind, so I'm not sure if there would be a resolution that would have been good enough. Thankfully the 'cliff' on this one was more of a hill so I'm not as upset by this break in between book 2 & 3.

Overall I really like the story. Hate the price gouge trapping you into buying the second two books at such an elevated price. I probably wouldn't have bought them if I knew it was a series with cliffhangers, but that would have been a shame since I totally loved the first book which kept you guessing all the way through. This second book is also very good.

Ella's past is making me more and more drawn to the series. All we really knew about her from Inside Out series that she was Sara's best friend and wanted to marry David but now we know she might be more than just a teacher. She can dance and she's great with guns.

I'm usually drawn to opposite attract couples but there are some, like Kayden and Ella who I enjoy that have a totally different pasts but they are alike. They both have lost a lot of people and they both have a dark side. That's why they're able to connect and Kayden doesn't need to be careful with her. He can tell her things about the Underground without being afraid she'll get upset and leave him. They're alike even in ways neither of them know.

Kayden and Ella both need each other to be handle the good, the bad and even the ugly part of themselves. I'm delighted they are deciding to be together, no matter what happens despite not knowing everything from Ella's past.

They're taking control of the situation and they're doing it together. They refuse to let anything from either of their pasts stop what they're now. I found it really sweet how they wanted to keep each other safe but neither really want to be protected. He wants a lot of things from her. Protection isn't one of them. Kayden never wants anything Ella doesn't give him freely and I love that he wants to make her bad memories good ones. He'd rather she didn't remember than be in pain and I think that's sweet. But he won't stop her either. Kayden just wants her to ease into it instead of doing it all at once.

We finally know who is the man who Ella is so afraid of but I'm more interested in what happened with David. Hopefully it will be revealed in Surrender. There's so many questions related to him. We also got a tiny bit of information about Kayden's relationship with Elizabeth and he could never trust her the way he trusts Ella because Elizabeth never knew the real him and she was too delicate for his life and he had too keep her shielded.

All in all wonderful sequel! I was actually surprised how much I enjoyed it and can't wait to read the last book. I have many hopes for it after reading Demand. Not just answers but also Ella choosing to wear the bracelet, knowing what it means and not just wearing it because she had to in public. I love Ella and Kayden and they're so great together even if they have some distrust between them at times but it's no wonder since she has amnesia and there are things he doesn't always tell her right away. If you like some mystery and suspense with your romance and don't mind the whole amnesia trope I'm totally recommending this one. It has been fun and I never want to put the book down. I was going to give Demand only four stars but after reviewing it I think it totally deserves full five stars. This kind of books are so rare for me and I really did love it.
