Synopsis

Her name is Emery Shaw...Emily Sanders...Emma Simpson...Ericka Smith.

Her family was well off, she ran. They looked for her, she hid. They found her, she ran again.

Tragedy strikes, she gets even.

The fact is, she doesn’t know who she is, she tried to run, to hide and make a life for herself, but that backfired. No one knows her except her best friend Rachel, if that’s even an adequate word for what they are to each other. Rachel helps her build a life for herself below the radar, which is fine until the unthinkable happens knocking Em out of her unfeeling cocoon. When her house of cards comes tumbling down she runs again, until the one person who can change her mind finds her.

**Due to adult situations, language and possible scenarios that may be difficult for some readers to handle, take a breath before you start this one. It’s gritty and not pretty. Nothing is pretty here. Whiskey is a good thing.

Andrea's Review

*ARC received in return for an honest review

5+ gut wrenching stars!!! An amazing, powerful story of one person's struggle to survive, beautifully told.

I freakin' love this book, words can't express just how much I love it and this is why R.L. Griffin is on my top author list!!!

"Do you belive in the click? When you meet somone right away and know that person is going to mean something to you - a lover, a friend, whatever. You click."

That's what Rachel Helms asks Emery Shaw the first time the sixteen year olds meet. Well, I believe in the click too. As soon as I began Razorblade Kisses I knew I was reading something special. It clicked. Oh boy, did it click!

I was gripped from the first page and couldn't put it down. I loved both the characters and the plot even if it was tough to read in places but I was compelled to follow these wonderful characters to the very end no matter how much it hurt.
Emery...so vulnerable and fragile but also showing such strength, determination and maturity for someone her age, my heart truly wept for her and what she endured.

RL Griffin, you have ruined me!! I was reduced to a sobbing wreck and had to stop reading a few times as I was crying so much. My throat hurt, my eyes stung and my head ached, including my heart. I honestly can't remember when a book has affected me so much and I can't recommend it highly enough. This is one book that will stay with me for a very long time.

Go grab your copy of Razorblade Kisses now and let it click for you too!

Her goal is to keep readers on their toes, whether it's the plot twist or the book itself, her books are outside any box. There is a little bit of grit in most of her books and a ton of cussing.
