Another winner for Willow Winters! As always Ms. Winters has written a book with characters that will grab your attention and make it hard to put the book down. That is definitely case with this book. I loved reading Jase and Bethany”s story, and can’t wait for book two.
The Cross brothers saga continues and now it’s Jase’s turn for his story with Bethany, a woman who wants answers to her sister’s death and the only clue she has is the Cross name and The Red Room. When Jase goes to see her, she turns on him and instead of killing her, he is intrigued and offers her a way out of her sister’s debt. Beth is torn but follows through on the contract because she wants answers…will he give them to her.
A steamy read with intense and emotional scenes as the two grapple for control. A fiery woman and a deadly man, what a combination and their story is not over yet…there is more to come with a cliffhanger that makes you go….NO !!!!
*I voluntarily read an advanced copy and expressed my honest opinion*
Omfg I need the second book now! I loved Jase and Bethany’s chemistry and cannot wait to see what else happens with these two! The story pulls you in like a mystery as well, I just want to know what is going on with her sister so bad. I feel like it’s unraveling slowly and I just want more.
Love you, Willow Winters. I look forward to every new story you come up with. The worlds you create are so full of emotion. You draw me in, and I never want to leave. You had me hooked with the Valetti family, and now it is the Cross brothers. Carter’s story was a thrill ride, and now Jase’s…uggggg…I just can’t! You have made me speechless with your words. I want the next book in this story now please!!!
I haven’t read a full length novel by Willow Winters, only short stories and novellas, yet her writing has always grabbed my attention no matter the story’s length. She has this way of setting a captivating and thrilling atmosphere that will wrap itself around your mind, luring you towards a dark and eerie, though beautifully enthralling romance. A Single Glance is an intense romantic suspense narrative packed with an abundance of unexpected twists that will evoke an endless, unfathomable amount of heart-wrenching emotions.
“Sometimes the things that cause you pain can bring you so much pleasure.”
Bethany Fawn is in desperate need of finding answers, but her admirable and determined quest in search of justice only pushes her towards a darkened world of heartache and criminal activity. Jase Cross is an undeniable enigma; a man with an imposing attitude, wicked dark side and inescapable danger surrounding him and his brothers.
“I feel like my life is on the precipice of changing forever. And I don’t want to go back to the girl I was, but I don’t like where this is headed either. I don’t have answers, and I need answers.”
A Single Glance captured my attention straight away when I finished reading the intriguing blurb. Nowhere does it suggest this will be more than a standalone, or that it will conclude with a much dreaded cliffhanger. So, I figured no knowledge of Jase’s brothers is required, but that wasn’t apparent.
Being a reader who doesn’t know anything about the Cross brothers, I needed more background information to really appreciate the complexity of Bethany’s situation and understand her tumultuous relationship with Jenny. Details are vague and often difficult to follow the way, I imagine, is originally intended.
Regardless, Bethany and Jase have an intense chemistry, forbidden attraction and erotically charged encounters that made me want more of them. And the plot line is interesting enough to keep me reading.
Superb… That’s what this book was. Willow winters has done it again.
This author is immensely talented and has once again left me completely and utterly speechless.
Every detail written in this story has been put into play for a reason. It’s captivating, well written and a page-turner.
I quickly fell in love with both characters. Willow has created some of the most enduring and powerful characters I have read in a long while. Characters who will stay with you long after the story ends.
I loved seeing the completely different side to Jase and how he seems to be even more dangerous than Carter.
I loved how strong-willed and independent Bethany was.
5 whole, dangerous stars from me.
Willow Winters
**ARC REVIEW** 4.5

OMG I am in a love hate relationship with Willow Winters lol. I love the story thus far and hate that i have to wait for the next part. I finished this book in one sitting. I was so hooked. The Cross brothers are addicting i can’t get enough of them. I am glad that we are now getting Jase’s story. It is so intense, suspenseful and hot. Bethany and Jase might be my new favorite couple. I can’t wait to read the next installment.
OMFG!! This book just slayed me. I have been waiting for Jase’s story since the beginning and I was not let down. Jase and Bethany’s story is one filled with angst, heartbreak, lies, secrets, lust/love and of course, some twists and turns that just make your jaw drop. Willow took me on one emotional rollercoaster ride and I loved it. Both Jase and Bethany have big losses in their lives. Neither wants to admit that they need each other. Jase knows he should leave Bethany alone, but he can’t. Their chemistry is off the charts and they are the missing piece that they are both missing. They complete each other. I was hooked from the very first sentence and DID NOT want to put it down. Once you start, you won’t want to put it down. I have wanted Jase since Possessive and started falling for him in the Merciless series. In this book, he stole my heart. WARNING: Willow’s books are like Pringles. Once you start reading her books, you can’t stop. You will want to read more and more of them. This is my favorite book so far, and I believe this is her best so far. I can’t wait to read the next one. I highly recommend reading this book, and if you haven’t read the ones before that, I recommend reading them also. You will not regret reading it. She takes you on a dark, dangerous, and twisting story. She writes it so well, it feels like you are right there. It is fabulously written.
The angst. The drama. All great stuff once again. A really fun read.
A Single Glance is Jase Cross’s story. I like him so much better than his brother Carter! He’s hot, he’s sexy, and he’s dangerous but he doesn’t give off that cruel vibe like Carter. In the opening of the book, Bethany’s sister has been killed and she is searching for answers. This leads her to Jase’s bar. She is stirring things up and Jase needs to put a stop to it which in turn leads to their first intense meeting which is both electric and jaw-dropping. Since Bethany and Jase both want the same thing – to find out who murdered Bethany’s sister and why – they reach an agreement that ultimately blows up at then end of this book, leaving us with a cliffhanger.
Willow Winters is an excellent storyteller and the writing is great, as always. I can’t wait for the next book in this very steamy, unbelievably hot romance.
I am voluntarily reviewing an advance reader copy of this book.
Be ready for the unexpected! I just knew Jase would be my favorite Cross brother. And this book just confirmed it for me. Be ready to not want to put this book down until the very end! The plot twists are like no other. Just when you think you have figured out Winter’s writing style, she throws this in your face. Check your emotions at the door before you even attempt this book. It will rip your heart out and put it….mostly back together. Jase and Bethany’s story was one for the books for me (pun intended). I cannot wait for part 2!!!!
A Single Glance is everything I never realized I wanted Jase Cross’ story to be and so much more. Intense and captivating Jase and Bethany’s story started off with a bang and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole book through. From their first meeting these two are explosive together and their sizzling chemistry had me squirming in the best of ways. Honestly, I would have loved to have changed places with Bethany quite a few times.The suspense and intrigue throughout A Single Glance had me devouring this intense, emotion- filled and gripping read. If you love books that pack an emotional punch and will keep you on your toes you need to dive into the world of the Cross brothers asap!
She couldn’t save her sister who had years ago been her hero, the one person she looked upto in life.
She looks for answers, they bring him to her doorstep.
Is he her enemy? is she wrong to trust him?
He was caught off guard with the gun pointing at him. His plans changed and now he has her anger and her fire.
Oh! the excitement! I couldn’t read it quick enough, desperate for more of Jase and Bethany.
They make for an explosive couple. The wrong but right situation is frought with tension and passion.
Jase the man in control. Dangerous and lethal but with softer shades to his personality.
Bethany who’s emotions are going haywire. She’s slowly losing herself to him.
Willow keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout this book. Trying to second guess what’s going to happen.
The power struggle was intoxicating. The questions, the answers the detective work! what a fantastic read!
I just need more now… and pray I’m not left hanging too long!
I knew I would love Jase and I was not wrong! He is a whole other level of sexy! He is dark, dangerous and oh so hot! I love him and Bethany, together they are amazing! I don’t consider this book a cliffhanger, but is is continued in the next book, so see, more Jase to look forward too!
A Single Glance is angsty, intense and really freaking hot. Sexy and sinful while still somehow showcasing this Merciless world. Heavy, heavy on the suspense and heart-pounding moments.
And we finally have Jase Cross. This is one bad boy that you will not want to let go of or give up to anyone else. Not only does he mean business in every aspect of his life – work and play, but he is also gentle and caring when he needs to be. This romantic suspense introduces us to Bethany. a woman just trying to find answers. And now Jase and Bethany have crossed paths and their time together is explosive. Can’t wait for more from Jase and Bethany.
I loved it! I have been waiting for Jase’s story ever since I finished the last Cross read and it certainly did not disappoint! Jase and Bethany’s story is a great addition to this series, fast-paced with loads of drama and suspense. The chemistry is off the charts hot and I can’t wait for more!
There are no words for Single Glance, just no words. Willow Winters is the only author that I have had the pleasure of reading that has the ability to push my boundaries while taking my breath away with her amazing stories.
There is no other author to compare her to, she is just that good! This story is everything I hoped for and more. Thank you the honor and pleasure of being able to read it.
