Genre: Adult Romance/Erotica
In the third book of the Eighty Days trilogy Summer and Dominik finally find their way back to each other.

"it's not like there's a moratorium on orgasms, darling. You're allowed to have more than one."
"I've never had more than one."
"Well then, all your former lovers ought to be ashamed of themselves." ~Viggo and Summer
This was my favorite in the series thus far! Summer is no longer straddling the lines of danger. Yet her voyeuri...more

Favorite Lines - "Good girl" he said "You like it the Catholic way, I take it?" & "Everything is about compromise. And love is biggest compromise of all."
"Nothing could follow Summer & Dominik. Others would never match the intensity of what he had witnessed. Best end on a high."
This sums up the whole series for me, this one quote explains my feelings for the three books. I hope one day to find an as interesting & testing series but i wonder deep down if...more

Well finally. When I started reading this series, I wasn't sure if it was for me. I eventually wasn't shocked by what they went through. I actually just wanted to finnish the story. I really didn't like the direction that the author took this complicated love story, in the 1st book.
I was over all the sex, some times thats neither here nor there, that didn't bother me. The story in the 2nd book started to save this tale from the abyss it was heading towards. Then it ended & they still weren't...more

Leaving New York and the man who deeply loves her behind, Summer returns to London, the city where it all began for her. There she hoo...more

Thank God for book three.
I loved this one the most. i am not even going to go into detail, but for those who have read the first two, this was my personal favorite. Because it brings Summer and Dominik back together, eventually. She loses her violin and Dominik finds out about the violins previous owners. He is trying to write a book and he looks into the history of Summers violin that he bought for her. And when he bumps into her and finds out she lost it he helps her to find it.

When Summer's priceless violin is stolen, fate brings wealthy and charismatic Dominik back into her life. Neither Summer nor Dominik can deny the obsession that still exists between them, but history has left its scars, and both...more
A perfect continuation to where we left off in Eighty Days Blue. I found this installment to be a bit calmer than the other two in the series, not as rough in the BDSM scene and the sex is mellower. There are still plenty of erotic scenes, some F/F action, multiple partner scenes, BDSM elements and the anticipation is there just as in the others and it’s still an intriguing read that sucks the reader in its pages just as the others. Any reader of the erotic genre will also get sucked into Summer...more
2 Jahre sind seit der Trennung von Summer und Dominik vergangen. 2 Jahre, in denen Beide versuchen ein Leben ohne einander zu leben. Doch können sie wirklich all dies, was sie zusammen erlebt haben, hinter sich lassen? Mit unerfüllten Wünschen leben, sich irgendwie arrangieren und sich mit weniger zufrieden geben? Als sie sich zufällig wieder begegnen wird schnell klar, dass die Leidenschaft noch immer in ihnen brodelt.

Me encontré con un libro que no tiene alma ni emoción, escrito con dureza y evocando siempre lo más oscuro y morboso de la sexualidad, escapando a consciencia de cualquier gesto romántico y sensible.
Creo que este tercer libro tenía una historia pasada con la que podía explotar la historia de un modo más potente, sin embargo es más de lo mismo y todo el libro es un divague sin pausas con rumbo a la obviedad del final.

This was a good ending to this series. I actually like the the last 2 better than I did the 1st book in this series. The one thing i did not like about Summer was there was no real reason for her Promiscuity, she honestly didnt really seem to enjoy sex outside of Dommink and that would have been ok if there had been a some sort of trauma or event that led her to be that way. I just didnt get her reason for extreme taste, however I did enjoy the journey and story between her and Dommink. Their lo...more

The weakest of the trilogy, although that's not saying much.
Laura-Lynne gets little to do, the dialog is still crude, making you realise that Are you being Served and On the Buses were unwatchable, loads of new, pointless characters have been added (including a sister which reminds me of the irritating sister in Fifty Shades Freed), and the meta device is still going on.

Solo decir que valió la pena embarcarme con esta trilogía. Este libro en especial fue el más divertido y amé el personaje de Viggo, un cantante famoso que conoce Summer por medio de Chris, incluso cuando era malo (me recordaba a Matt Bellamy.

“Dominik hatte etwas in mir erkannt, dass ich selbst erst noch entdecken musste. Eine schamlose Begierde, die ich nicht einmal ansatzweise erkundet hatte. Eine Seite von mir, die mir seither sowohl Lust als auch Schmerz bereitete.” (Seite 8)

I didn't like book 1&2, but wanted to know the resolution. It was anticlimatic.
It is very rare to read a book and get absolutely nothing from it. This was one of those times. What did the author wish to impart with this book nd/or series? What did the author intended as her message or point? What should one remember about this book?

Natürlich musste ich auch den Abschluss um die Hauptstory von Dominik und Summer lesen. Auch wenn es zwei weitere Teile der Reihe gibt, drehen sich diese dann um andere Personen. Ich bin mit gemischten Gefühlen an das Buch heran gegangen.

Article first published as Book Review: Eighty Days Red by Vina Jackson on Blogcritics.
When I first heard about this series, I believed it would be a trilogy, so I was a tad confused when this was changed. However, I now get it. This is still a trilogy, of sorts, withEighty Days Redbeing the last in a certain storyline. The next books go on to deal with different characters, which I'm very much looking forward to.

I started reading this book because of it being compared to Fifty shades of grey. The writing in this book is 100% to FSG but I didn't understand the girl in the book Summer. What brings a woman to be treated like that. Maybe I don't understand BDSM but I couldn't get my head around someone wanting to be used like that, when she had a guy like Dominic. This is why I could only give it 3 stars.
This books opens with Summer living with Simon in NY. She feels loved but is bored and is aware that something is missing from her life. Simon goes back to Venezuela and Summer leaves for London. Summer meets a rock and rock superstar Viggo Franck and moves with him and his live in girlfriend.

I prefer this 1 over the other 2 books. Even though this book had less to do with BDSM it still have something that just drew me in and made me enjoy this so much more than the previos two books.
I love the humor the secondary characters and overall the plot I thought much better then previously written in the series.

2 1/2 stars..... Final book in the 80 days series.
This book was strange..... It felt the longest of all 3 in the series..... The character relationships were a little full on at times for me..... Then the way the book was ended just annoyed me....
Sorry.... Not bad...... Don't recommend

Surprisingly I did like the male lead by the end...but i have never gotten through an entire trilogy bar three chapters and still disliked someone with so much passion. Maybe thats why I enjoyed it?? I certainly couldnt put the books down, and was desperate to know what happened next!
i would recommend this trilogy but would tell you to keep an open mind ;)
