REVIEW:
The Runaway Millions, written by Parker Avrile, is the second book in The Runaway Model series.
This novel picks up right where The Runaway Model left off. Therefore I recommend reading the series in order. Knowing how the characters met, and their backgrounds, makes it that much more enjoyable.
Kyle, the main character, has just survived a traumatic experience. Kyle and his love interest, Bryce, think they are safe and are just beginning to solidify their relationship as a couple; when Bryce suddenly has a personal crisis, causing him to leave.
Kyle decides to go to Canada to help his good friend Michel. Once in Canada, Kyle finds he is unable to return to the United States and instead goes back home to England.
Having left England two years ago, Kyle reunites with his estranged Mum. While he works on mending their relationship, he busies himself with the fast paced life of modeling in Europe and Japan, in order to help support Michel.
All the while Kyle and Bryce manage to stay in touch and take moments together whenever the two can.
But surviving a long distance relationship is not easy and just as the three men feel they have settled into a good rhythm, a good life, it is ripped away from them.
It seems that every time things are good something bad is lurking right around the corner.
If you like twists and turns, I highly recommend The Runaway Millions.
This book had me happy and sad on more than one occasion. Just as with the first book in this series, I could not stop reading it. It is an exciting rollercoaster of love, life, sex, and suspense. I fell in love with the characters and and could not lay the book down until I knew what happened.
I would love to know how this book makes you feel.
