I just finished reading Raw and I am blown away. I absoluety loved it. The only thing I disliked about this book was the ending. Upon finishing it I wanted to scream I wanted more. Does anyone know if there will be a second book?

I just finished this one today too. Loved it, but before I read it, I read in one of my book threads, yesterday, that it looks like the author has no plans to write a follow up or continuation to it.
That is truly sad news about no follow up to the Raw book. I was really hoping for a second book. As I was reading the ending it reminded me of the book by Bella Willing Captive. However we know how this book ended. Other than the disappointment of no sequel, it was a great book.
finished this book earlier, it was good, and about the ending yes, I also want another book, I thought there are more to tell, their relationship just starting in the last chapter.
no next book is BULLLLLLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR im soooo mad
I really want a sequel to this book, I just hope in time Belle will change her mind. There is definitely more story to tell with this one.

This book was AMAZING. I hope there will be a sequel.
it WAS amazing until I found out that we were being left in the lurch......no other book. blah.
I NEED a continuous to this book!! I absolutely fucking LOVED this book can't believe theres not going to be a book2!!:(
OMG!!!! This is one HELL of a story!!
I loved it and I want more Does anyone know if there will be a second book?
Thavasi wrote: "I loved it and I want more Does anyone know if there will be a second book?"As of right now, the author has no plans to continue the story. Initially is was to be just a standalone novel.
Thavasi wrote: "I loved it and I want more Does anyone know if there will be a second book?"Nope. no second book!!!
we ARE screwed!!
I read it, and gave it 5 STARS. That book was AWESOME!!!! It was soo good I emailed and reviewed asking for a sequel! You HAVE to read this book. Its not a book where you cringe and its too much, this is a perfect, perfect book that like dark Erotica with a twist.
Are you serious? How is there not going to be a second book. That is just madness! There needs to be a second book. You cannot have a ending like that and not except people to want more!

i just finished this book as well,, it was definatly a bumpy ride but what a ride it was.....there really needs to be a 2nd book, i facebooked her and i hope she has something good to say maybe if we all fb her she will come out with book 2..... i keep telling everyone to read it....

*its a standalone and no plans for a 2nd book*
LOL I UNfriended. GAH!
Wow.. Y'all really ticked that she isn't writing another one, huh? LOLI get the frustration. I do. And I really liked this book, but I'm not upset about her not having plans to do another book any time soon.her vision for this story was as a standalone not a trilogy or series & I'm good with that. If she does a sequel down the road that would be great too, but I'd rather her go into a second book wanting to do it, with a clear path in mind, instead of writing one out of persuasion & frustration on behalf of her readers who want another book. More often than not, over the past year or more, I've found when authors do this, the 2nd book & books that follow suck because of it.
I guess cos of this, I can take her not doing a follow up book for now, if ever.

First let me say this... I thought the book was effing phenomenal!!!!!
I LOOOOVED IT!! ....until the very end and it ruined the experience for me.
The ONLY reason I thought a second book was in the works and REALLY disappointed that there wasn't a next book, was the VERY ending!!!!!!
*************SPOILER********************
(hope I did this right LOL)
No, I get it. I thought everything about the book was awesome too. & though the ending was gut wrenching & just flat out shocking for me, I thought it was suitable for what we got in the book. I knew it was going to end tragically. The teaser/open ending in the epilogue was shocking to me. And I think it leaves a great open ending to it, to be revisited. But also if it's not, I think it still closed on that bittersweet note of unfinished closure. Which a lot like RL, happens often. So if it stays this way, I can deal with it. But I see why so many would need that cut & dry closure to happen with another book considering the ending with this one.

Like u mentioned so many authors decide to go ahead with book 2 or 3 and it just doesn't work, it ends up failing miserably. So the fact this one, in my opinion, was fucking amazing I rather have it be left that way than her write a book 2 and it just not live up to what I want it to be, and then be disappointed and pissed it was bad.
Yep not pissed or ready to riot :) lol... But thought there was going to be second book because of the ending.
I would love so much more...a happy ending would be perfect....we need more on twitch she really could make a "rock chick"like series...about happy, Nikki,Julius, dave, it could go on and oni hope she reconsiders and does a second book....
Maybe all this rallying will swing her decision.
BOOK TWOBOOK TWO
BOOK TWO!!!
I say, let's ask for a second one!!!! PLEASE BELLE!!!! PRETTY PLEASE!!!
We definetly need a follow up to this book! I loved this book & couldn't put it down! When I got to the end I was speechless which is a rarity for me! This was 1 book where I truly wanted the happy ending!
I LOVE THIS BOOK !!! But that end. OMG. I am soo mad. First i cried. Then i was soo angry. And then i cried again.I NEED SECOND BOOK! I REALLY REALLY NEED IT.
PLEASE BELLE, Everyone here need second book.
What??? No, follow up? I will mark this author OFF of my list of further reads!!!
This is a money making society. Of course there's going to be a second book- this is one of the best books I've read in years. Thanks, capitalism

I'm confused by the end of this book. I hope there is a sequel at some point
I'm voting that she should change her mind and write a follow up book! How can you leave it off with such a great cliff hanger without writing a follow up?? We need to see how he seeks out redemption!
Cynthia wrote: "What??? No, follow up? I will mark this author OFF of my list of further reads!!!"exactly. it was a bitch ass move to put the ending that she did..... and she is OFF my reading list. I don't give a shit now if she writes a 2nd book.....it was lazy, irresponsible and just fuckin mean.
Kristin wrote: "I'm voting that she should change her mind and write a follow up book! How can you leave it off with such a great cliff hanger without writing a follow up??

There are so many directions that Book Two can take off with. Like AJ spotting his dad somewhere. The possibilities are endless. Belle needs to go back to dig deep and realize that we cannot be left hanging like this. Hell, I'll write the book and continue the story myself. That's how strongly I feel about a sequel. Just saying.....
needdddddddd sequallllllll plssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!
there has to be a book two, maybe if we all beg we will get it

That Sucks… Not Fair to Readers!
How many of you have read Willing Captive? My thoughts are that this is the second book that she has ended somewhat similarly. I too cried when this book ended and when Willing Captive took it's turn towards the same ending as this one. I'd love to see Raw with a sequel. I however would NOT love to see another book come from this author with this same twist in it. That would put her on my do not read list.
