5 "I've put my fingers on your heart and felt it beat." Stars

Like many of of this author's brilliantly told, psychological stories, I have no idea how to review this particular piece of work because I have no idea what in the name of anything is going on. The above quote I've titled this review with holds especially important to me as a reader. It shows the very tight yet withering tether of the cord connecting this to characters. It's literal, this actually happened and the very precarious nature of having done this so accurately describes the very precarious nature of their relationship. While I don't know how to review this, I do know I loved every twisted, toxic, sordid word of On the Edge. The whole thing from prequel through this book has been absolutely intoxicating. It's different, it's edgy (pun intended), it's dark, it's confusing, it's blatantly sexual, and it's powerful, desperate love surrounded in a cloud of mental instability, brilliance, and deep shadowed pasts.

"Everything could shatter."

The importance of this quote compels me as much as I find it ironic. C.D. Reiss uses her words and phrases deliberately, keeping you hooked. This one, to me, because everything in the lives of Caden St. John and Greyson Frazier is in fact shattering. I don't know how. I don't know the true catalysts or the true meaning of why. I'm learning as much as I'm being entertained. And that's the true beauty of this story. It's a mind trip unlike any other but you're completely consumed much like Greyson appears to be throughout the story. I applaud C.D. Reiss for this unique story and her intricately, delicate, and layered way of telling it. There's a lot here and it's not for the figuring out, really. It's for the consummation of your mind while reading it. The journey here is not easy, it's not light and fun, it's intriguingly dark and psychological and beatifically complex but that doesn't give this particular blowing of the mind any less impact. I'm completely invested in these characters and this author's story of them. And I can't wait for more.

One-click, have wine and tissues handy.

On The Edge is hands down one of the best books CD Reiss has written to date. Quite honestly it is a modern masterpiece. I could not put this book down. It has haunted me for days. My head is been reeling. I don't want to give any spoilers so I will not discuss the turn of events that unfold in this 2nd installment of The Edge Series. But be forewarned, have some tissues and a bottle of wine handy...your going to need them. Enjoy! ...more
