For the safety of everyone even remotely in the vicinity of dear Deanna, she’s still locking herself in her apartment. (Thank you again, Deanna). But that may not be enough. What happens when trouble comes knocking on her door?

"There has to be a plan. I have to have a purpose. I am, despite all that rots in my core, a good person."

Do Not Disturb is ACT 2 of the Deanna Madden Series. As expected by readers everywhere, Ms. Torre does not disappoint.

In the Girl in 6E, we fell in love with the heroine Deanna Madden. Deanna is a strong spirited young woman with deep issues to work through. This character has complex layers that are just waiting to unravel.

Before I get throng-fucked by fans, you should know that I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in the Deanna Madden series. I'm not a "hater". I truly wanted to enjoy this book. I liked the idea of a cam-girl who has locked herself away from the world due to her homicidal tendencies.

I'm not a "hater". I truly wanted to enjoy this book. I liked the idea of a cam-girl who has locked herself away from the world due to her homicidal tendencies. I didn't see it going past one book (oddly enough, the author admits in the afterword that she didn't either), but was still looking forward to the sequel. I knew this was a one-trick pony, but I ignored my gut instincts and plunged in anyway.

First and foremost, I must bitch about the cliched bad guy. Marcus is your average rich fuck who likes beating and raping women. He goes to prison for a while, and then is released and put on house arrest. The first half of the book is a literal countdown to the day when he can come and go as he pleases. I've seen this character in episodes of Dexter, CSI, Law and Order, and even an episode of Murder She Goddamn Wrote. I'm sure Sherlock Holmes once took on this archetype.

Secondly, Deanna is a true and utter bore this time around. The sexual content is tepid and, at times, completely laughable. I actually chuckled out loud during several of the supposedly "hot scenes", scenes that seem to have been written by a thirteen-year-old boy who just found out what the word "cunt" means.

Thirdly, there's this major build-up going on throughout the book only for the action to fizzle and die like a dud firework. The fuse is lit, and its burning away. It reaches the tube where the black powder is stored and then... PFFffftt. The end of this book is about as satisfying as farting and filling your pants with something akin to chocolate pudding. Such a let down, and embarrassing for everyone involved.

Last but not least, I'll leave you with a quote from the book. I rarely ever quote, but this line was so laugh-worthy and awkward that I had to stop reading and post about it:

"This beautiful creature with the balls of a giant."

Listen, I know what the author meant, but that line... that line is fucking hilarious. Yes, Deanna is gorgeous and brave, but all I could picture was a unicorn with a hefty sack a'swinging 'tween its legs. To and fro... back and forth... SWANG DAT BASKET, HUMPTY!

In summation: This is well-written cliched garbage. Torre says in the afterword that she prefers this book to the first one. I guess it's true what they say: Your own farts smell the best.

Final Judgment: Like reading Dexter with Cinemax After Dark playing in the background. ...more

Perhaps psychologically the darkest story I have ever read. Creative beyond belief, but deeply disturbing. This book will take you into the twisted and distorted mind of a killer and a rapist. I literally had to pause reading this story at a number of crucial points, because I was just that affected. So please heed the warning. This book is not for everyone; but if you value originality in your romances and have an open mind, then I guarantee this will be one of the most mind blowing tales you could ever read.

As a starter, I think it is worth noting that this is book 2 in the Deanna Madden series. To fully appreciate this series, and the complicated nature of the couple's relationship, as well as the full extent of the heroine's psychosis and dark past, it is really essential that you read The Girl in 6E first. Accordingly, this review may contain spoilers for Book 1.

Do Not Disturb picks up pretty much where The Girl in 6E leaves off. Now that Deanna has ventured out again to the outside world, she is faced with a strange sensation: cravings for freedom. During her three-year self-imposed confinement to her apartment, she pretty much became acclimated to her unusual existence. Surviving, by working as a "cam girl", who for $6.99 a minute, caters vanilla and sexual fetishes alike. Surviving by having her basic needs, from toilet paper to meals, ordered online and delivered to her door. But having tasted freedom, and behaved for the most part, she can't help but wonder just how far she can tow the line before her homicidal urges become a real threat (at least to undeserving individuals). Further complicating matters, is her budding relationship with Jeremy, her enabler, the UPS man who delivers all of her packages thereby enabling her reclusive existence.

As we learned in The Girl in 6E, interestingly when Jeremy is around, the feelings of love and desire that he conjures up may well be the only emotions strong enough to subdue her grim fascination with killing. Tempted though she might be to bask in the liberating feelings he unleashes, she remains equally terrified of hurting Jeremy. Moreover, Deanna remains convinced that should Jeremy truly have an unobstructed view into the dark recesses of her twisted and demented mind, there is no way he would be able to resist the tempting allure of fear that should keep him well at bay.

Nonetheless, Deanna and Jeremy begin testing the bounds of just how far the healing effects of their relationship may allow Deanna and Jeremy to experience normalcy as a couple. Just as Deanna is beginning to make some progress, however, another sexual deviant sets his sites on "camgirl" Deanna. And this man will not take "no" or be deterred no matter how drastically Deanna attempts to "block" his attempts. But in this fight of the depraved, just who will end up being the hunted and hunter? Will all those hours of fantasizing about killing be enough to keep herself and those she loves safe?

What a sadistic journey! Be prepared to be taken to the edge of your comfort zone! Do Not Disturb will take you to a world where twisted desires and fears, and life altering unfortunate events, will lead you to question just what is just, merited and ultimately acceptable when survival, and the protection and vindication of those that we love is at stake. Is passion and love omnipotent in its fight against extreme darkness? Romantic suspense and thriller lovers, craving an original read, will not want to miss the Deanna Madden Series!

So despite the fact that I rounded this down when I rounded the first up, I preferred the second book to the first. I think this one is more exciting, more energetic, more addicting, and I enjoyed that all the relationships are established. But those things also are what caused the majority of my problems.

The romance in this is problem number one. And my biggest problem. It is extremely insta love. Now insta love in erotic fiction is nothing new but this was insane. The I love yous made no sense. They knew nothing about one another but they loved each other. I think that these two characters confused lust and love and it made no sense.

Now Mike is arguably the best character in this book. We got to know him more and his backstory. But the way the main character treats him I can't deal with. He is so loyal to her, he's done everything for her, and one little moment of weakness (view spoiler) and it's all over. His lack of ending is something I hope is covered in book 3 because I do not enjoy the way this left off. It left a bad taste in my mouth for the main character who i liked but now don't respect at all.

The mystery aspect is where this is at. Well it's more the thriller aspect I guess. I enjoyed this villain. I enjoyed how messed up he was and I liked that part. It was very exciting and made this book hard to put down once things started rolling. But, damn it's anti climactic. I wanted some huge grand finale. We got like half a paragraph at best. I was so disappointed. There was so much potential for this amazing ending and we got a mini conclusion to this plot so we could focus on mike and the romance. So I'm hoping for some sort of redemption for that in book 3.

So I mean overall it's enjoyable. It really is. But the romance is extremely unbelievable and therefore taints a bit of the book. But it's still a thrilling series and I do look forward to book 3. I just hope there's more Mike. There better be some Mike. ...more

Before diving into reading this story, I was actually mulling for days of what I expect from Deanna in this sequel.

But then, nah. I’d stop being giddy and excited. I will not read this book and analyze clinically every twist and turns. I will dive in with no expectations. I’ll just immersed myself with the story and that life of the girl in 6E.

Roll VTR. The events becomes a movie in my head.

One thing that I didn't actually expected is of Deanna wanting something else that is so totally out of the blue. Or a problem aside from her demon self. And I never expected her of humor, not of the gory type.

“Being born without a penis.”

AT never disappoints. I thought that with what happen in The Girl in 6E, Deanna may be a little less bloodthirsty. But no, she is the girl that captured me and never cease to amaze me with her gory fantasies and violent ways.

I’m a fight over flight girl. I see RUN, and I think WAR.

There were only few scenes of Deanna and Jeremy’s relationship and I guess it was just perfect. It makes me crave more for them to have more, to know more of Jeremy’s feelings and thoughts. To know him as person. And yes, for wanting it to happen, for Deanna to give in to her sexual desires. And hating some of Deanna’s insensitivity, for hurting Jeremy’s feelings, and love her again for her thirst of blood. I was teary eyed and hurt, but all the more I fell in love with Jeremy. My favorite part? But, of course! Their first date. It’s quite possibly the strangest first date in history.

“I’m not gonna let you hurt me.”
“Don’t be so sure you can stop me.”
“Can you be naked again the next time you try? I enjoyed that.”

Hello normal, I am Deanna. Nice to make your acquaintance.

Quite possibly the shock of all the shock for me is Mike. I may have wanted to kill you of what you have done, but no matter, I still admire you. I have develop a soft spot for you and my heart aches for you. Yeah, I wish for a HEA for Mike.

HackOffMyBigCock, fellow college student. Loves working out, football, and lap dances. Dabbles in hacking when he isn’t being the big man on campus.
We all live different lies.

Deanna is still compulsive and some issues were just to get a rise from Dr. Derek. I’m still curious about him. And, yes, when I think of him, I imagine Gandy. Oh yeah. (view spoiler)

Refrain from any sexual activity?
Bitch, please.

I’m #TeamJeremy all the way, even from The Girl in 6E. How Jeremy could love Deanna or Deanna could fall for Jeremy? The answer maybe beyond me, but I know and I felt the connection in there.

We love them for their unique ability to tug at our soul, to connect to us in a way that no other person can.

In this moment, I give him my soul. And he takes away the death and fills me with life.

The plot, was just amazing for me. There are some bits and pieces of some information that are too short to make sense of how it is connected but just enough to be understand. Those were actually what had held my attention. The climax? Nothing that I have expected. It will make you to not put the book down because of its intensity and will make your heart race or stop beating for a while. The suspense is exhilarating! I just had curse and scream internally and freak out. Ohshitohshit whatthefuckwhatthefuck. What. The. Fuck. Seriously?! Okay, I’m excited for more.

Do Not Disturb is the second installment in A.R. Torre's (Alessandra Torre) dark/erotic thriller series titled: Deanna Madden. The first book in this series totally hooked me and I was excited to see this second one within my easy reach. Hurray for the public library!!!

Do Not Disturb is no filler sequel! It is its very own story. There is a solid romance, a scary villain, and of course the whole bottle of awesome sauce: Deanna Madden. Watching Deanna and Jeremy's romance slowly blossom was ...more

This book was amazing. Deanna is such a complex character it was great that we got to see her again in a second book.

I liked that she explored her freedom more in this book and tried to push her boundaries. We see Deanna beginning to question her self-imposed boundaries more, and wonder if these boundaries are really benefiting or hurting her. She explores her darker urges a bit more, testing the strength of her self-control.

Deanna continued to be an intriguing character, and her complexities pu
