Dressed in White Blog Tour




Title: Dressed in White
Author: Jessica Gibson          
Genre: Contemporary Romance

Tour Host: Lady Amber's Tours







Synopsis:
Lorelei Peters had everything she had ever dreamed of. Amazing friends, a sexy boyfriend, and a job that she absolutely loved.

Dillon Brockwell was all she had ever wanted. Handsome, successful, and he loved her as much as she loved him. Life was going along the way it was supposed to, until someone from Dillon’s past shows up and shatters everything to pieces.

Can Lorelei and Dillon get through all the craziness and make it down the aisle? Or will lies of omission be enough to derail them forever.

My Review: I will start by saying that romance is not my favorite genre but Dressed in White was so much more than I ever expected. This was such a great story. I became completely connected to Lorelei's character it was if I truly were beside her felling the rollercoaster ride of emotions that she was taken on. I talked to her as if she could hear me telling her to listen to her gut feelings we have those for a reason. She and Dillon go through so many restarts so to speak that you begin to wonder if they will ever get it together. Dillon's past comes busting in like a tornado that cannot be stopped. Will it ruin it all for Lorelei? Does she call it quits or can she stay and fight for the one man she has really ever loved? These questions I can't give you the answers to as I may spoil the book for you. Now if you really want these questions answered then go get a copy of  Dressed in White because Jessica Gibson does an excellent job of giving you the answers to these and many other questions! 
5/5

Excerpt:

“Come on in, you don’t have to stand outside.” I busied myself with finding a vase and clipping the ends off the flowers, preparing them for the water.
“This is weird, right?” His voice was soft and closer than I had anticipated.
I turned to find him right behind me in the kitchen. “Yeah, it’s a little weird.”
“I don’t want this distance between us.” His hands cupped my cheeks.
I wanted him to kiss me, to tell me that all of this would work out, no matter what. I needed it.
He didn't kiss me; though, he looked into my eyes, searching for answers to his unspoken questions. “I don’t know what I can give you right now Dillon.”
“Lor, every kiss that I miss tears me apart. Every night spent apart from you, without you next to me, it killed me. I told myself when I came here I wouldn't do this, but I can't seem to help myself.” His lips crushed against mine in a hungry frenzy of passion. I gasped as he gripped my waist and sat me on the counter.
His lips burned a trail down my neck and back up again. I needed him, this, all of it. Who was I kidding? I couldn't live without him any more than I could live without oxygen.
He pulled away and stood on the other side of the room. “Sorry about that. I’ll be good from now on.” The look on his face told me his words meant nothing; he had no intention of being good.
