All her life, all Jane Doe has ever wanted was a name, a family and someone to love.
She’s suffered many hardships, but none have come close to her treatment at the hands of the enigmatic Edward Rochester.
The only thing Jane wants to do is love Edward openly, but he has forced her to keep their budding romance hidden. Despite giving him an ultimatum, his will is set in stone and he refuses. His secrets run so deep they’ve driven a wedge between their hearts, keeping them apart but still longing for one another.
Driven by death, madness, rivalry, violence and love, their story inevitably intertwines once more, and they realize they cannot escape the affair they began in the middle of the English summer… but they soon learn not all things were meant to stay hidden.
When Edward’s darkest secret finally sees the light of day, will Jane be able to forgive him, or will she be forced to leave Thornfield forever?
From International Bestselling author Amity Cross, comes Paradox, the second novel of The Thornfield Affair, a modern reimagining of Charlotte Brontë’s classic Jane Eyre.

Review
Paradox is book two of the Thornfield Affair series.
I grew closer and closer to Jane Doe in Paradox, seeing what she'd suffered and survived in book one, I was curious what would happen in this book and I wasn't let down. Jane is still strong and good, full of love and a desire to be loved in return. She knows there are still things unknown to her, things that affect Edward, and she's determined to figure out what they are.
Edward is a man with serious inner demons, a man who is struggling to do what he thinks is the right thing, struggling to aleviate his guilt, but each choice also impacts his future. He's such a hard character to get a true feel for because he's guarded but he's also has that edge of mystery to him, you know there's more to the man, but you can't quite grasp it in one moment.
I really enjoy reading more as the pieces of the mystery unfold and truths come out, as it sucks me in further. Answers given, but yet, more questions fall into place and make my mind roll through all sorts of theories. This story brings out lots of emotions, there's Jane's misery at feeling unwanted and unappreciated again, and there's frustration at the way both Jane and Edward sidestep their feelings, and so much more as I tried to work out all of the details in my head.
Paradox answered a lot of questions and revealed a lot of things to us, but there's still a feeling of suspense, there's still something lurking. I love the mystery of it all and how the story makes everything feel alive, Thornfield has that air about it that makes you feel as if its the silent witness to so much pain and heartache and also makes me wonder if we'll ever know the extent of it all. I'm anxiously waiting for book three in the series with the hope that we will finally have all the answers and understand everything and maybe (hopefully!) Jane and Edward can find a full happy ending.
