Synopsis:

The sexy and deeply romantic internationally bestselling novel that inspired the blockbuster movie.

Laura Biel and her boyfriend are on a dream vacation in beautiful Sicily. On the second day of their trip, her twenty-ninth birthday, she is kidnapped. Her kidnapper is none other than the head of a powerful Sicilian crime family, the incredibly handsome, young Don Massimo Torricelli, who is determined to possess her at all costs. Massimo has his reasons. During an earlier attempt on his life, a vision appeared before his eyes: a beautiful woman, identical to Laura. After surviving the attack, he vows that he will find the woman in his vision and make her his own. No matter what.

For 365 days, Massimo will keep Laura captive in his palatial estate and attempt to win her heart. If she doesn’t fall in love with him during this time, he will let her go. But if she tries to escape at any point, he will track her down and kill her entire family.

Soon Laura develops a fascination with her handsome and powerful captor. But as a precarious, risky relationship forms between them, forces outside their control threaten to tear them apart...

My Opinion:

Oh my gosh, this book was hot. I do mean absolutely hot. I want to say this was an amazing book. I know there are a bunch of people who would call me crazy for calling this book amazing. However, I'm looking at several details. The first of which and the main thing being that this is a translated book. I kept in mind that books being translated can get lost in translation a bit. Other countries do not build their sentences the same way as Americans.

So keeping that major thought in mind I do think that this book was amazing. It is a dark romance and no this may not be for everyone. However, a book doesn't need to be condemned because it wasn't your cup of tea. The people who read it and love it do not need to be condemned for their taste in books.

I enjoyed this book and I did read it obviously like everyone else after they saw the movie. I did notice several difference between the two. Did it make me like the Movie any less? No it didn't. Were there moments in the book that made me squirm? I would say so but not bad. There were a few moments that I would say might trigger some people.

365 Movie

365 Days Movie Review I have to start off with saying that this movie does have English and Polish spoken throughout the movie. If that is not something you yourself think you will like this movie is not for you. This movie does have triggering themes. Please check your triggers. However, one trigger is kidnapping because our main female character is in face kidnapped. We also have mafia themes included with this as well. So let's talk about how Lara is not exactly in the best relationship to begin with. It sucks her boyfriend in my opinion is an asshole who just likes the fact that he's got some amazing arm candy. That's what it feels like he is doing because when she is trying to engage him in activity he reminds her about her 'poor' heart. Yes, she does have a heart condition but adult activities should not bother it that badly. What are you hiding Martin? Hmmm We then find them leaving for Italy the next morning. They get to the hotel and they are drinking outsi...
