Ahahahahahahaha....this is my maniacal "what kind of crazy shit did I just read" laugh! This was wicked, dipped in crazy, served with a dollop of WTF! AND I FREAKING LOVED IT! Not sure why the craziness that is Oliva & Caleb didn't absolutely drive me out of my mind, but it didn't! I have to admit I've had this entire series on my kindle for a long while but I've been to chicken to dive in. Well I made the move and I can't wait to see how it all ends. I am dreading the next book like I think mos ...more

2016- still as good as always.

***5 full stars

FUDGE! Still one of my favorites of all time. Re-read on 8/12/14 after reading some posts on Facebook. Just wanted to relive this all over again and get the feels that I haven't in such a long time. :)

2012 REALLY!!! I felt like too much blame was put on Olivia for Jessica's decision back in college. Also because Caleb was indeed being an unfaithful bastard, then turns around and throws it back at her face by telling her she was cold...blah, bl ...more

Holy crap!I'm gutted after reading this. I'm crying so can't see very well......
I was warned but went ahead and read it anyway and was so glad that I did. I couldn't put it down, reading on my breaks at work and all the spare time in between.
This was one of the most emotional, gut wrenching, heartbreaking books I have read. It tugged at every emotional heartstring, pulled it tight and then flicked it so it hurt. It was just so good!

In the beginning I really felt for Caleb and was a little put of ...more

So after reading Dirty Red I totally changed my opinion. It seems odd but now after getting to know the characters better and figuring things out I LOVE this book. Tarryn Fisher's writing is flawless ...more

Oh my! I think I will be needing a few days off from emotional angst. It will be hard to get over this book! I am left in an emotional turmoil! I want so much for Caleb and Olivia to be together but I don't want Noah to hurt. I need the next book but I don't think I can pick it up just yet. This book is brilliant, captivating and angst driven! This brings out a roller coaster of emotions in me and you never know what happens next! I could not put it down! I am appalled and frustrated with Olivia ...more

Wow! What an emotional roller coaster! I originally gave this book 4 stars. Then I decided I need to change it to 5 stars. Why? Because I can't stop thinking about the story, the characters, and all of the different emotions I experienced throughout this book. I laughed, I was sad, I was giddy, I was pissed off. There were so many times that I asked "Are you friggin' kidding me?!" Or "She did NOT just do that!". I wanted to slap some of the characters quite a few times, yet there were times I wa ...more

This book was INCREDIBLE, I couldn't put it down!!! I am still torn up. For anyone that loved Avoiding Commitment, you need to read The Opportunist. Tarryn Fisher's characters were written so well and I loved that this story kept me guessing..... guessing at who the Opportunist really is! I think I may need to re-read this one :-) ...more

This was a great, but quite frustrating book. At times it was hard to root for Olivia when she kept sabotaging her own happiness. Even though the ending isn't quite what you wanted it to be, it ends like it should. ...more
