6 Incredible stars!!!!HOLY CRAP! Can I rate a book a zillion stars? Please? Because I was completely blown away!!! WOW! Just wow! You asked for more Cole, and my god did you get him. Each and every delicious inch of him! "Songbird Caged" is hands down my favorite book of 2014 so far. I am officially TEAM COLE all the way!!!!! I was in love with Riley in Songbird, but completely drawn to and intrigued by Cole. Well, now I can say I am officially and undeniably in love with a fictional character (which I didn't even know was possible to do). I have read a couple series with love triangles which I LOVED, but this one has def topped them all! I was actually surprised at how little Riley was in the book, but it worked very well. And all you team Riley people, don't you worry… just because he is not around much in this book does not mean he is out of the picture.The story picks up where "Songbird" left off. Tara and Riley are engaged, and Riley has been deployed overseas, and will be there for 6 months. While Riley is gone this is when you start to see the most incredible side of Cole, and he begins to show his true colors from the inside. Him and Tara have become the best of friends, and with Riley being away Cole really helps to keep Tara's spirits uplifted. For once, you see him put someone else above himself. You begin to see just how deep his feelings for Tara have grown. The more time that passes, and the more time she spends with Cole, Tara finds herself battling with such intense feelings for him.. as well as her love for Riley. Wanting to keep her promise to Riley and wait for him, she continues to try and push Cole away… but that proves to be absolutely impossible as these two have such an immensely strong pull towards each other."You have the most tempting lips," he whispered, still fixated on my mouth. "One day, you're going to let me kiss them."The sexual tension was at an all time high. You could feel the electricity jump out from the pages and shock you straight to your soul. Emotions ran wild throughout the entire book, and things you did not expect to see happen, happened. Just when you thought you had it all figured out, you were thrown through a loop and were left picking your jaw up off the floor. When I reached the end I was left wanting to pull my hair out and screaming at the walls all sorts of obscenities. How could Lisa leave the story off like that. Talk about an insane cliffhanger! That was soooooo not fair. It has been days since I finished reading this story, and I am still suffering from the absolute worst book hangover of my life.I. NEED. BOOK. 3. NOWWWWW!!!!!Lisa Edwards is beyond amazing! She has the ability to turn simple words into a beautiful and intricate piece of art. The images she is able to create using black and white letters easily turn into the most vibrant and colorful pictures, and you can't help but get lost in the amazing stories which she creates. She is one author everyone should keep their eyes on because she is definitely going places with her incredible talent.
