DNF @ 20%. Was completely bored with story and I'm giving up after several tries.

Wow ! That was adventurous !
So, the book's prologue hints that something is very wrong with Drew Sinclair and we have a strange doctor injecting him with something. He's been on a Summit to the Savage Mountain aka K2. And doesn't return alive.
The current day story begins with Tristan (Drew's brother) preparing for the summit to K2, in honor of his childhood promise made to his brother. His uncle who is his dad's best friend, Elliot, works in the US Embassy of Pakistan. Tristan takes his help to ...more

What an interesting story! Tristan has a burning need to climb K2 with the ashes of his brother Drew. This is a climb they should've made together and regret runs deep through Tristan's soul. Farah is a woman determined not to be held back anymore. The society she lives in treats her as 'less than' but she's going to prove she is more than anyone gave her credit for. All they have to do is summit the mountain ... but they're taking the most treacherous route and the goddess of the mountain is a

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!
I had no idea what to expect with this story. It was centered around mountain climbing which I have no desire to do nor any real knowledge on it. I thought what the heck, I will give it a shot.
I actually really enjoyed the story. Instead of a simple romance, this actually had an interesting plot. With the backdrop of the mountain and Pakistan, ...more

There's this expression we have in German: "Nichts Halbes und nichts Ganzes" - nothing half and nothing whole, literally translated. Half-assed. Which is how I felt about this book most of the time.
There were so many genres, so many tropes combined in this one book, it felt like none of them had enough space to be satisfyingly developed. Romance, adventure, mystery, investigative thriller, even some historical stuff about (view spoiler).

MK SO did it again!
I LOVE HER BOOKS. This is the fourth one I've read, and I didn't even read the synopsis. I knew whatever this book was about, that it would be excellent.
MK has an EXCEPTIONAL talent of conveying the soul-deep love between the hero and heroine. I'm telling you, the things Tristan said and did will melt your heart. And MK always includes "that one thing" between the characters, whether it's a special item or idea, that resurfaces at a time that really drives home just how much ...more

Kiss The Sky for me is a breath of Fresh K2 Air!
As usual, With any of MK Schiller's books, I dived into it blindly. No reading of synopsis, No expectations. And as usual, MK Schiller has managed to amaze me. AGAIN!
Not that I am complaining about "others" books that's all filled with lust and you know what (not MK's and you have to agree that it get's tiring sometimes). I am not saying that there is no love going on with Tristan and Farah. Because it is after all a love story. My point is that t ...more

Okay, I can no longer have any doubts. M.K. Schiller is officially a top author for me. This is my third book by her and I absolutely love every one of them. One of the most wonderful things about her writing is the amount of research she seems to do for her stories. With Eight Days in the Sun she writes about a Marine, in The Scars Between Us it ...more

Tristan is on a mission to honor his brother, but can't get the clearance to climb the mountain. One he finally gets the clearance, he has to get a crew to agree to let him go along. The holdout is Farah. Once she finally ages to let him go with, they start the hike.
They get to know each other during the hike, but try to keep it as friends. Completing a very difficult hike, every step of the way, there are arguments, revelations (about every member of the team), and mysterious things that happen ...more

I really, really enjoyed the chemistry and setting in this book. I actually learned a ton of interesting things and it was a quick and fun read. My only complaints were that I found certain mystery elements really easy to figure out and other ones not quite fully connected at the end. The time on the mountain was a little slimmer than I expected from the description as well. I also thought there was a tiny lack of female characters. I understand that the climbing world is male-dominated but Fara

I really didn't know what to expect when reading this one. But I was blown away with Kiss the Sky. Seriously this one had me on the edge of my seat. The twist and turns and the action was amazing. I so didn't see any of what happens with Tristan and Farah coming. I love the drive and the chemistry between them. MK. Schiller blew me away with this one. If you love action and a good mystery and are looking for different type of romance then take a look at this one. Mountaineer's are in a league of

I was asked by the author for an honest review.
This is the first book I've read by M.K. Schiller and I really enjoyed it. I liked reading about the climbing trip as much as the developing romance. A large portion of it is set in an area of the world that I don't know much about (Kashmir). I would recommend this book to readers who like climbing, nature or stories that have more adventure scenes than love scenes.

There were so many highlights in the story - the setting of the climb, and the different countries and experiences represented, the backgrounds of the characters. However, the mystery and adventure at the end of the story was a little bit unbelievable and hard to follow.

Not knowing a word of English, MK Schiller came to America at the age of four from India. Since then, all she’s done is collect words. After receiving the best gift ever from her parents—her very own library card—she began reading everything she could get her greedy hands on. At sixteen, a friend asked her to make up a story featuring the popular bad boy at school. This wasn’t fan fiction…it was f
