Heaven and Hell By Kristen Ashley



After making a bad decision when she was very young, Kia Clementine finds herself in hell. Then, suddenly, within the time it takes for a shotgun to blast, her hell changes. Completely. Then out-of-the-blue she sees Sampson Cooper, her celebrity crush. A man the whole world knows is decent. A man the world knows is loyal. A man the world knows is good. All of these very unlike her now dead husband.

He’s sitting at a table right next to hers. And she catches his eye.

Terrified of the interest Sam shows in her, Kia finds the courage to go out with him. Not long after, she shares her dark secrets and Sam shares that he’ll stop at nothing to gain her trust. 

As Sam leads Kia to heaven, Kia realizes that Sam is living his own hell. But although he gives her beauty and she gives him everything, he withholds his trust.

Even with all the beauty Sam shows her, Kia wants it all. But Sam forces Kia to make a heartbreaking decision and only she can decide. It’s all or nothing.
Read on for my review. 



So loved this novel. Kristen Ashley does not disappoint when it comes to her writing. 
Truly an amazing writer and still cannot believe it took me till now to pick this baby up and read it. 
Yes it has took me longer then what a brilliant novel usually would but i have been a busy girl. That said it has took everything in me to put this novel down and get some sleep. It was that good. 
Kia has been through the ringer. Being in a abusive relationship, finding out he died, cheated then planned to take her out for her insurance money. 
Me personally would have broke, but then like all Kristen Ashley characters she is stronger then she thinks she is. Not many people could handle the cards she was dealt. 

When she is away she then meets the famous Sampson Cooper, the one she has internet stalked and followed everything he has ever done. 
Every girl fantasies about meeting there idol. Every girl wants this, they would be a liar if they denied it. 
I loved Sam straight off. I love how he treated her, how he spoke to her and just him in general. No bullshit, just straight up with her. 
Like all Kristen Ashley's men Sam cuts straight to the point. At times i find this infuriating. He never lets her get a word in. Ever. How does he expect her to tell him where she is at if he does nothing but talk. 
If any of the male men i know spoke to me like i would go mad and snap straight up. Whereas the thought of having one of these commando's talking to me like it, i find it sexy and seriously hot. 
What made me want to cry was when Sam said this ~
"Wherever you are, however you got there, if it's good, you're meant to be there either because you earned it or life led you there and you were smart enough to hold on."
 The comment is so true and so real i couldn't help but fall more in love with him then and there. 
It's obvious that Sam has deeper issues then he lets on. I like how Kia lets' him off with it and does't push him to open up about his past. 
60% of the book Kia starts to want answers but Sam been a bad-ass just avoids the topic all together blowing her off. 

60% into the book and they have mentioned Lee Nightingale -who is one of my favorite rock chick men - a few times into the book but when he turns up at the yard sale, i loved it. Its nice how Kristen Ashley keeps her characters and adds them into other novels. Makes the books feel more real.  
    
Oh lord the book doesn't have much action in but it doesn't make the book less enjoyable. 
Really enjoyed it and yes another one of Kristen novels have made me cry like a baby. 
Seriously Luci story had me in tears, the moment Kia found her on the beach to the minute they had there heart to heart. Then again a few more times through the book. Even the last of the book when Kia rings ups Celeste and Thomas to tell her, her news. That even had me chocked up. When Kristen wants to get an emotion across she doesn't hold back. Not one bit.
