Un tome tout aussi réussi que le premier (lecture VO)

mardi 19 novembre 2024

 Jay Crownover a créé une duologie géniale et pour la première fois, elle nous laissait sur un cliffhanger terrible -donc il faut avoir lu le premier pour lire celui-ci- puisque l'héroïne, Channing laissait son mari après les terribles événements -je ne veux rien vous dire- qui s'étaient déroulés dans "The silence of monsters" : elle avait besoin de se reconstruire et s'en aller à l'étranger lui permettait d'oublier, enfin... un peu et surtout de faire le deuil de sa soeur (elle emmène ses cendres avec elle et attend de trouver le bon endroit pour les jeter) Mais évidemment, ce qu'elle ne sait pas, c'est que son mari, Win ne veut pas renoncer à elle, même si il est bien conscient que ces événements et le fait qu'il l'ait forcée à se marier avec lui ne joue pas en sa faveur... Pourtant, ils semblaient être heureux, malgré ce début détestable, avant que tout n'éclate et évidemment, il n'est pas devenu millionnaire sans volonté : il a l'habitude d'obtenir ce qu'il veut et il ne renoncera pas à elle, même s'il doit lui prouver qu'elle compte plus que son argent, son entreprise et il espère que sa nièce dont il a la garde et qui adore sa tante, jouera dans la balance.
Mais s'il avait ses secrets, il semble qu'il ne connaît pas bien sa femme et qu'elle a aussi ses propres douleurs et ses propres démons qu'il veut l'aider à combattre mais lorsque quelqu'un de son passé s'approche d'elle, la menace, quitte à s'en prendre à leur nièce, Win qui avait promis de changer pour elle, pourra-t-il protéger ceux qu'il aime et enfin obtenir le bonheur que tous deux méritent?
Eh bien vous le saurez en lisant cet excellent second tome de cette duologie géniale.

"The sound of secrets" est sorti le 23 octobre en anglais (j'espère qu'il sera traduit) et je remercie l'autrice et Wordsmith pour leur envoi en ARC
Vous retrouvez la chronique du tome 1, ici : The silence of monsters

Présentation : 

Some secrets are silent.

It began with a contract, with Channing Harvey being forced into marriage by the world’s grumpiest billionaire. She hated every moment of her marriage to Win Halliday… until she didn’t. It was hard to resist when he proved he valued her more than his massive fortune. Channing is having a hard time picturing her life without him, and if Win finds that out, he won’t rest until he has all of her. Deep, dark secrets included.

Some secrets scream.

Win Halliday is so close to having everything he’s ever secretly wanted. He’s ready to do battle with Channing’s demons, no matter what they are. Or who they might be. Someone from Channing’s past wants to use her, and they’ll go to desperate lengths to get what they want, including targeting an innocent teenager. But whatever lengths they go to, Win will go farther. He finally has the family he’s dreamed of, and he will protect them at all costs.

Mon avis : sincèrement, je pensais qu'après le premier tome très intense et passionnant avec son lot de révélations jusqu'au bout, ce serait difficile de faire mieux et bien non! Jay Crownover a su nous entrainer dans les méandres de la vie de Channing cette fois et de son passé compliqué. Mais si elle a dû affronter la mère de Win et les conséquences des actes de cette dernière, alors qu'elle semble enfin en paix et semble croire au bonheur, elle voit resurgir des secrets qu'elle pensait avoir enterrés mais elle n'est pas seule et veut protéger ceux qu'elle aime. Elle ne réalise pas non plus qu'elle n'aura pas à les affronter sans aide et que Win (et sa famille restante) mais aussi ses amis seront là pour l'épauler car elle le mérite.
C'est un mélange de femme forte et touchante, qui a souffert et souffre encore et qui va devoir affronter son passé mais aussi son présent. Elle semblait le côté lumineux et un peu atypique dans le premier, on va vite réaliser qu'elle est bien plus profonde qu'elle en avait l'air.

Win est un homme qui pensait avoir tout et après que son monde ait explosé et qu'il l'ait payé cher, il a dû se reconstruire avant de partir conquérir la femme qui l'a épaulé et dont il est tombé amoureux. Même s'il sait qu'il n'a pas fait que sn bonheur, il sait aussi qu'ils avaient quelque chose et il est prêt à tout pour qu'elle lui redonne une nouvelle chance et qu'il lui prouve qu'il sera là pour elle. Or, quand le passé de la jeune femme refait surface, il va devoir choisir entre qui il est et ce qu'il voudrait être pour elle, car la jeune femme se moque de son argent et il devra lui montrer qu'elle peut compter sur lui autrement : j'ai beaucoup aimé ce personnage qui est typique des personnages de Jay : à la fois sombre, voire dangereux et si attachant en même temps.

Un autre personnage prend de l'importance dans ce tome, c'est la jeune Winnie, la nièce de Win et Charlie, la fille de son frère à lui et de sa soeur à elle : si dans le premier tome, elle essayait d'échapper à l'héritage familial et sa grand-mère démoniaque, elle va avoir un rôle plus prépondérant, parfois jeune adolescente fragile, tantôt dure avec les siens. Sa rencontre avec un jeune garçon va avoir une importance et tout ce que je peux dire, c'est que j'espère qu'on lira leur histoire un jour, tout comme celle du demi-frère de Win et de la femme qui l'aide dans son avenir professionnel et qui a un caractère bien affirmé (je n'en dis pas plus) 

Bref, comme le premier tome, on navigue entre romance un peu sombre et romantic suspense et on tourne les pages pour savoir comment cela va se terminer non seulement entre nos deux héros mais aussi s'ils vont tous réussir à s'en sortir ou quels secrets ils cachent encore.

Dire que j'ai adoré cette duologie serait un euphémisme : c'est très différent de ce que fait Jay Crownover habituellement mais c'est une réussite : bravo.

Vivement le prochain!

Excerpt:

I wrapped my arms around his waist and pressed my bloody cheek to his chest without a care that I was leaving a mess all over him.

“Win. I love you too. I loved you before I found out about the condo in Hawaii, the shares of that awful company. I love you despite all that stuff.” I felt his heart pound against my wound. “I haven’t figured out how to be your wife, but if you give me a chance to learn, I will. And for what it’s worth, I know you’re already the perfect husband. I just need to catch up.”

“I’ll wait for you.” They were more than just words. He’d proven that he would stay in one spot while I found my way back to him more than once. He gave me the home I’d endlessly searched for with me having to ask him to do it. He proved to me I was anything but common and basic because he loved me, and he wanted me more than his family fortune. Win Halliday would only ever give his heart to someone as extraordinary as he was. I liked the version of myself I saw through his eyes, so much more than the one everyone else saw.

 I gave him the one thing I was never able to relinquish to somebody else. My trust. Ultimately, that’s how I knew I was in love with him.
