Rating; 4 1/2 stars

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. I was not compensated in any way.

As you read this book, you will realize that there is no way that this story could be contained in just one book. Chris and Sara’s story needed to be told over time. They were sharing their lives with us – like getting to know new friends.

The mystery also seems to escalate in this last book and then Lisa has you thinking how it connects to the title. As you get clos ...more

I am pretty sure my head is spinning right now! I have now completed the Inside Out series at least what’s been written so far. I need to say that as a whole series I LOVED IT! Every single twist, turn, upset and Victory! These books are amazing! Revealing Us picks up with Rebecca’s story. I loved how her journaling was in the beginning of a lot of the chapters, To know what she was feeling and thinking as she made her journey back to Mr. Compton her demands and wants. And the things that were nonnegotiable to her. I think you get a good feel for who Rebecca truly had become. Then we get to the continuation of the story between Sara & Chris. It picks ups right where it ends in Being Me. Sara must choose what she wants to do. Is her love for Chris enough or rather is Chris in truly in love with her and willing to completely let her in.

"No Talking. No in-between. All or nothing, Sara. I’m offering that to you, and you have to decide if you really want it. There’s a reservation in your name with American Airlines. I’ll be on the plane. I hope you will be, too.”

They both have hard decisions to make. As they travel down this road, they soon find out through some unfortunate situations that Sara is being looked questioned about the murder of Rebecca. Which in turn sends Sara’s world spinning. She is in a new Country with a man that she loves, but with the exception of Chris she unnerved by everything. She’s frustrated with the language barrier and isn’t leaning it well, is pickpocketed by the first person she runs into off the airplane and doesn’t really like the food. I’d say it’s going to be a rocky start. And then enters Amber, (oh you knew there was going to be one) she has been a constant in Chris’ life for so long now, and she makes that apparent from the start. Not to mention the fact that she is in love with him. And none too pleased to see that Chris has feelings for another woman. The Master Undone Collage1 The one that claims she will be enough and that he will never go back to her! With that declaration Amber is set to see if she will be able to take them apart. Amber is slightly ok not really twisted! So the story must progress. Lisa moves through this story so well it’s hard to transition in this review. Needless to say the questions about the murder of Rebecca turn into bigger problems when Sara tries to get her passport reissued after it being stolen. That situation turns from bad to worse when she realizes what is going on and doesn’t want her only friend Chantel to know about the whole murder thing. But once again Chris comes in and let Sara know that indeed she can always depend on him to protect her. But how much longer will he continue to protect her from himself. That’s the question that Sara is constantly pushing. Wanting more, wanting for Chris to know she can handle it. She loves him and nothing will tear them apart ever! Eventually she pushes too far and Chris does tell her. The darkness will try to rear its ugly head. Will Sara be able to handle the truth? Will Chris let the darkness take over and drag Sara down with him? I can tell you that by the end of this book, you will have those answers. And more that you didn’t even know you wanted. Hmm like maybe where’s Ella? Yeah you don’t think Lisa forgot about her did you? You’re just going to have to keep reading to figure that one out…

" I am home. I'm home because I'm with him. And I kiss him as if I will never kiss him again, as if I'm dying of thirst and he is all that can quench me. And I believe he is. He has always been the answer to the question of what was missing from my life, even before I met him. "

Lisa Renee Jones has once again took me on a deliciously naughty thrill ride in her third installment of the Inside Out Trilogy - Revealing Us. This was one of my most anticipated books of 2013 and it did not disappoint. " I am home. I'm home because I'm with him.

Lisa Renee Jones has once again took me on a deliciously naughty thrill ride in her third installment of the Inside Out Trilogy - Revealing Us. This was one of my most anticipated books of 2013 and it did not disappoint. With more surprises and secrets revealed, I was taken on a rollercoaster ride full of too many emotions to count. Having read the entire series, and being witness to the growth of this beautiful relationship, as well as the growth of the individuals was an AMAZING journey! I can't say enough excellent things about this book or the series in general. Bravo Lisa, Bravo!

" I revel in my ability to make this amazing man, this beautiful, seemingly always in-control man, lose himself to passion and I gladly obey his command. I ride him and the fantasy that I never seem to make reality, but he does. The one called control. "

The thing I love most about these books is the depth of emotions that I feel while being immersed in to this world of love, lust, and mystery. From the very beginning of this series I feel like I have been put through the ringer. I feel exhausted emotionally, because the author put so much heart and soul in to these characters and made them so real for the readers, you can't help but to constantly want to go back and fix things for them. They have become a part of your family and all you want is for them to be happy. In Revealing Us, even more secrets are revealed, and yep you guessed it, even more questions are raised. I fell IN LOVE with Chris even more, if that's even possible! He is a tortured soul that you just want to reach in the book and give him a big hug! (Well...maybe more than a hug, if you know what I mean.) In Revealing Us, there are new characters introduced and new secrets to unravel, but when you get down to it, this is a genuine, freaking amazing LOVE STORY. It's not perfect, which is great, because it allows readers to relate to certain situations, but it's Chris and Sara's love story and it's a story that keeps you on your toes as well as makes your heart beat out of your chest. I HAVE GOT TO ADD that in between all of the secret keeping and emotional struggles there are some pretty damn HOT sex scenes in Revealing Us, including but not limited to, a sexy elevator scene and some scorching 69 action! Anytime Chris Merit is in full on DOM MODE, he can do pretty much anything he wants to me! *WINKS*

" This is my fear. The moment when, once again, you shut me out and I'm alone. If you were going to leave me alone, you should have walked away before now, when I still knew how to breathe without you. "

Intense, riveting, and beautiful, the INSIDE OUT series is in a class of its own. Not only is it an emotional thrill ride, but it's an all-consuming, nail-biting, powerfully written story that will leave you wanting more. This is one of those rare series that keeps you thinking about the stories long after you have finished reading them. Revealing Us and the rest of the series including Rebecca's Journals are ALL MUST READS, and MUST be read in order! Seriously people DO NOT STRAY from the reading order! I was so HAPPY to hear that this isn't the end for all of these wonderful characters and I simply CANNOT wait for what Lisa Renee Jones has in store for us avid INSIDE OUT readers!

REVEALING US is the third installment in Lisa Renee Jones’s sexy contemporary, erotic romance Inside Out series. In the previous two installments Sara McMillan found and had read a series of journals written by a young woman who was once employed by the same man with whom Sara is now working.

REVEALING US is the third installment in Lisa Renee Jones’s sexy contemporary, erotic romance Inside Out series. In the previous two installments Sara McMillan found and had read a series of journals written by a young woman who was once employed by the same man with whom Sara is now working. Hoping to find some clue about Rebecca’s disappearance, Sara searches for answers in the sometimes less than revealing journals about the ‘what’ and the ‘who’ in Rebecca’s life. And Sara’s almost obsessive need to uncover the truth will put her in harm’s way and threaten her relationship with Chris Merit- the man that she loves.

Revealing Us picks up where Being Me left off and in doing so, Sara must make a decision that quite possibly could affect the rest of her life. But Sara continues to struggle with her need to uncover the truth and with her best friend Ella in Europe, Sara will push forward until hidden secrets and painful pasts are revealed. With the man that she loves bordering the edge of control, Sara will push the boundaries until the truth is finally revealed.

Once again, Lisa Renee Jones pulls the reader into a storyline of mystery and suspense; heartbreak and sorrow; love and revenge. Revealing Us has a different feel to the story than the previous installments as it centers on Chris Merit’s past and the potential for disaster in both his personal and private life as well as Sara’s need to find out what happened to her best friend after she unexpectedly disappeared while on vacation in France.

Revealing Us is not the end but the beginning of a new direction in the series. With the focus of the series branching out in several directions, Lisa adds another connection to her dark heroes, her lost heroines and a lifestyle that lays hidden behind closed doors and in secret rooms. And in the end, everything and everyone can be traced back to a young woman who wanted to be loved but found out the hard way that you don’t always get what you want.

Revealing Us and The Inside Out series is a story of suspense and mystery, painful secrets, love and loss. Lisa writes a story that lures the reader into the seductive world of erotic pleasure and pain, and a lifestyle where moving on does not necessarily mean letting go.

I went away while I was reading this book and I was so frustrated because I was SO busy that I didn't get much time to spend with Sara and Chris! LOL
it took me several weeks to read this book because of my hectic schedule.

I was a little over half way through the book when I got home ... I finished the rest of the book shortly after returning home and OMG ... I LOVED IT! (as I did the others so far)
Lisa Renee Jones did it again ... made me cry, I mean! lol
