Rose's Food & Book Blog: Blog Tour: The Girl in 6E by A.R. Torre

My life, inside this apartment is simple. It works, as long as I follow the rules. 1. Don't leave the apartment. Not in case of fire, not to mail a letter, not to run an errand. The door stays shut, and I stay inside. 2. Don't get attached to clients. I take off my clothes, I stand in front of the camera, and I perform. What they want, I give. Their secrets, I keep. Everything I tell them, is a lie. 3. Don't kill anyone. I've obeyed that rule for over three years. My life, inside this apartment was simple, and it worked. Then, I started breaking rules. Enter a world of lies, thrills, fears, and all desires, in this original thriller from A. R. Torre. Warning: This book contains explicit sexual references, and should not be read by anyone under the age of 18.

Undressing is an everyday occurrence. Most women do it mindlessly, automatic motions that accomplish an end result. But, if done correctly, stripping can be the ultimate foreplay, a sexual seduction that can wipe clear any rational thoughts and leave a man totally and utterly at your mercy. I have mastered the art. I kneel on the bed and trail my fingers over my skin. Light, teasing caresses designed to heighten my senses and stimulate my body. I exhale slow, trembling breaths as my hands travel near sensitive areas, the dip in my neckline, the lace over my breasts. I keep my eyes down, subservient to him, and wait for the command. One always comes. “Take off your top. Slowly.” The voice was foreign, English words dipped in culture and dialect. I comply, lifting my eyes and biting my bottom lip gently, my tongue quickly darting out, and hear his gasp in response. I run my hands down my neck, grazing the top of my collarbone and dipping under the silk of my negligee. I slide down one strap, then two, the silk bunching over my breasts, the fabric clinging to my nipples. Then I rise to my knees, crossing my arms, sliding the fabric higher, letting it reveal inch by slow inch of skin until it unveils the curve of breasts, dip of throat, and the pout of pink lips. “Good.” He groaned. “Very good. I like you, Jessica.” Jessica. Not my real name. He thought he knew me. They all thought they knew me. After all, they’ve seen my Facebook page, seen the Photoshopped photos that construct my manufactured life. They believe what they see, because they want to believe. Like I want to believe. I turn to the wall and stand, dragging my expensive thong down over my toned hips, bending over and exposing my most private area to his hungry eyes. The embroidered lace slides the rest of the way down my legs and drops around my ankles, snagging on the Italian stilettos that encase perfectly pedicured feet. I am naked now, and slide down to lay on my side in front of him, propped up on one elbow, his eyes hungrily feasting on my body. The lights, bright and hot, illuminate my bare skin, causing it to glow. He speaks, the arousal present in his voice, in the slight thickening of his accent. “Touch yourself. Just your fingers. I want to see you come.” He wants my fingers, a seductive performance of gasps, moans, and slick foreplay. Eventually, fingers won’t be enough. The next visit he’ll want more, something bigger, deeper - my moans to be louder, my orgasm stronger. There will be no secrets anymore, no boundaries, no requests he won’t be comfortable giving. At this moment, I am his, to do with as he pleased. And right now, he wants fingers.

***If you are looking for a book about sex and romance this isn't the book for you. You should know that going into this book it's unlike any other book you've read before and it's very unique but don't give this book a bad review because you were expecting hot sex and romance***

This is actually my second time reading this book and unlike with some books it's even more enjoyable the second time around than it was the first. Knowing a little more about what the story was about and what to expect allowed me the second time around to really READ the story. I love this book it's totally and completely unique and I have not read any book that even begins to compare to this book. It was so different from what I read and I LOVED every second of it and would read it again. This book has officially become part of my top 10 favorite books I have read this year so far and will stay in my top 10 for a long time to come.

In this story we meet Deanna Martin but she no longer goes by the name of Deanna she currently goes by the name of Jessica Manchild. Jessica is an online sex cammer who charges $6.99 a minute who's only human interaction are her clients on the internet, Simon her neighbor, and Jeremy the UPS delivery man. What I loved about this book were the clients and her interaction with them, every client is different and at the beginning of each of the client sessions tells you a little about the type of client they are and their interaction with one another. Deanna has her whole life set up for her; she never leaves her apartment, all her food and supplies are delivered to her, and she hasn't been outside of her apartment in three years. Why hasn't she been outside of her apartment for the past three years? Because Deanna has a secret, she has the desire to kill people or more accurately put obsession with murder. Some people get aroused during sex, Deanna gets aroused fantasizing about killing people. She's killed before and decided that for the sake of the town she lives in she will lock herself up and never go outside again so she sits at her computer and makes her living only interacting with Simon who locks her up every night so she doesn't have the urge to open the door and kill someone and Jeremy who delivers her packages and gets a simple, `Leave the package. Thank you' every single time, no face to face contact just words spoken through the door.

You might ask yourself how did she manage to lock herself up in her apartment and have no one miss her? You see, Deanna has no family anymore her mother, father, and siblings are all dead, murdered by her mother and Deanna has developed her mother's psychotic thoughts. Her clients think they know her, that she's a college student who has a life outside of her apartment but they are just fabrications, no one really knows who the true Deanna is.

Jessica. Not my real name. He thought he knew me. They all thought they knew me. Loc. 14

As the book goes on you get to meet her clients and one client sticks out more than the rest. Deanna over the years has met some interesting character guys who like anal play, guys that are into humiliation, but she has an issue with clients that are pedophiles and while some clients in the past have shown these tendencies, she has a feeling that her new client: RalphMA35 wants to hurt a little girl named Annie. Usually these types of clients don't mention names they just have a certain fantasy they want to act out in their minds, but he doesn't just want pink and ruffles and innocence he wants Annie and with the introduction of Annie everything changes for Deanna.

This book is written extraordinarily well and what really helps you connect with the characters is that it's told from more than one view, however the first person view of Deanna's character really helps you to develop a connection with her and feel what she feels. In this book you take a journey through the mind of Deanna and the changes she begins to go through in the book and the one defining moment that changes everything about the way she feels and the way she is. If I could I would give this book a rating of 6 instead of just 5. I love this book and I also loved Blindfolded Innocence which is also written by Alessandra Torre. So if you are looking for something different and unique I highly recommend that you read The Girl in 6E, you won't be disappointed; I know I wasn't.
