📕BOOK REVIEW📕
Title - Burning Desire: The Psychopath and the Girl in Black Prada Shoes Part I
Author - M.L. Stark

👦🏻Aayush’s verdict ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Have you ever been in a relationship with a psychopath? Chances are, even if you did, you would never know it. Psychopaths are cunning charmers and master manipulators, to the point where you start to accept the most extreme behaviors as normal. Everyone should read this book, even if they have not personally been in an intimate relationship with a Psychopath.

Overall this is one of the best resources I have read for people who are healing from encounters with sociopaths/narcissists. It is written in a kind, caring voice; and it is super precise and enlightening in all of its descriptions.

This book is not just about recovering from dating a psychopath. This book is about human relationships, empathy, and self-preservation. It's about protecting yourself from toxic relationships and forgiving yourself when you fall apart. I recommended it to a friend because she's been struggling to find post-break up answers after years of dating someone she now suspects is a sociopath. She immediately loved it and felt validated.

Written from the heart, it is the first guide for survivors written by a survivor, offering hope for healing and thriving after psychopathic abuse. Say goodbye to the chaos, self-doubt, and victimization. You are free!

👩🏻Oshin’s verdict ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

I have to say that this little book really does have it all! It simply tells you how it is with the psychopath. How they think and how they do not care nor worry about what you nor anyone else thinks. No empathy, no care other than for themselves.

I liked it because it reiterated author’s real experience. This book has simple yet powerful ways to embrace the entire experience and recover from it. It discusses the strengths of empathetic people that psychopaths lack and will never have the ability to understand.
This book was very hard for me to put down and as I read each page I found myself nodding in a agreement with its text. As it is written by a survivor of emotional abuse, I appreciated it greatly as if the author was right beside me telling me their story and what to look out for should it happen again and the reasons why we fall these certain types of people.

This book is the last thing your abuser wants you to read. Quick read and provides practical advice on healing as well as walking you through revelations you may not have gotten to yet. The books reads like you’re talking to a compassionate friend who is invested in your healing and helping you through your journey to feel safe and whole again by sharing her own story.

I recommend this book wholeheartedly as it has helped me to overcome one of the most painful experiences I have had in my life. I’m eternally grateful that this book exists and even more, after reading “Part I” mentioned in the title.
I’ll be waiting for more from M.L Stark!

Can you imagine living with a partner who is a psychopath?

BOOK REVIEW
Title - Burning Desire Fades (Part 2)
Author - M. L. Stark

This is the part two of the series "Burning Desire : The Psychopath and the Girl in Black Prada Shoes" by M.L. Stark. This part is in continuation with part one and here you will see how that psychopath Doctor Bates continue to play his money minded games with Mary. All he was ever wanted was Money, Money and Money! You know "Money is the worst discovery of human life but it is the most trusted material to test human nature".

I felt bad for Mary who was in love with Doctor Bates because all she got in return was betrayal, fraud and unlimited lies. When you love someone, you cross your boundaries for them, you ignore their mistakes for the sake of love and that's what Mary did, she continued to help him in every possible way and that's what love is all about and it's sad to see how that psychology continued to manipulate Mary for his own benefits. I read this book whole night and finished it in one sitting. Honestly, I won't lie but there were times when I felt like killing Drake, he was so irritating and his never endings plans were frustrating. Whenever he tried to manipulate Mary to invest in his new plans, I was like, No man, not again!

All the time, its just Money, Money, Money and Investing in his fucking idiotic business ideas.

I was so angry for whatever he was doing, What a crazy man, No shame at all, No regret at all.

But the fact is "Bad people get what they deserve" And bad karma will catch up with him.

There is only one way to deal with a psychopath and that is never, ever to get involved with one, which is easier said than done because, regardless of the endless havoc they wreak around them, they are virtually invisible to their targets. When you have something they want – which is invariably money, power or access to something else they want – they mold their behaviors and attitudes exactly to your own.

I still can't believe this is a real story, but the truth is, Yes it is a real story of the Author. The story is really emotional and I was able to feel every emotion of Mary. I really appreciate the author that she shared her story with us.

You will see how dangerous it is to be in love with a psychopath.

Firstly I'd like to shout out about the title of this book. It's like if you read the title, you cannot stand not to know the story behind it. That's how I bought my copy of this novel.

Title : Burning desire fades

⚡️Each and every word written on the cover enticed me to buy this wonderful piece of work. This is a real story of the author and that's why I couldn't put it down. In this story, you will see how dangerous it is to be in love with a psychopath. I felt bad for Mary, because the love she had for her partner was so true and all she got in return was betrayal. 
It was more like a transactional relationship and I believe that staying in such a relationship for a long time will take a toll on your mental health. How can you truly feel loved when you know that your partner only stay with you because of your money?

⚡️I kept my fingers crossed till the last page. I kept on reading because I wanted to see, for how long Drake can continue to play his games.
But soon he is going to regret everything he did and that's what I was waiting for.
If you want to know what happened with Drake later on, you should also grab the copy of this book.

⚡️This book drips of emotional abuse and uncertainty the author has lived through under the control of a psychopath. With self-esteem, self-worth and everything at stake, the author portrayes the brutal and painful truth she had been gone through. It's an emotional story and I would like to recommend this book to everyone.
I really liked this book, I admire the fact that author has shared her own story with the world.♥️

THE OTHER SIDE OF AN EMOTIONAL RIDE.

Dating a self-absorbed, lying psychopath, who made her life hell.

Hey book lovers!!!!!!!

♥️ 🎉Review time🎉 

⚡️I am back and happy to share my review of a heart touching true story. “Burning Desire: The Psychopath and the Girl in Black Prada Shoes Part I is part one of the Burning Desire trilogy”.

The novel is about author’s own story and her sufferings as she fell in love with psychopath. This is a true story, but only names of the person and places have been changed. I found it very interesting.

⚡️Mary is an established woman, but her life is a complete mess. She started dating a self-absorbed, lying psychopath, who made her life hell. He presented himself as a normal man, started inappropriately flirting with her. He was a doctor and she was his patient. During a treatment session, he goes too far and she didn’t realise that she is entering into a toxic relationship. Later she realises that dating him was the biggest mistake of her life.

Read out the story how the protagonist Mary survives in the story!

⚡️The story has been so emotionally and effectively penned down, you will feel pity for Mary. I really felt very connected to her, I was feeling her pain. The story depicts how a single decision can have leave such an impact in one’s life. This was a eye-opening, inspiring read. Author ML Stark shared her own story with the world, so that other women learns from her mistake and doesn’t suffer in life the way she did. It takes courage to share one’s own plight with the world.

I highly recommend this book to everyone, specially to all the female readers. There is a lot to learn from this book. I am looking forward to reading other books in this trilogy. ♥️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

⭐ Can you imagine living with a partner who is a psychopath? How do you survive living with a psychopath? 

I totally agree with the below phrase - "Psychopathy is the only mental disorder where it is not the patient, but the environment that suffers".

⭐This is one such story where the protagonist Mary, a pretty little doll was not aware about the upcoming disaster as she trusted and started dating a truly creepy sociopath Drake, a self-absorbed, lying person using people for his benefits. He preyed on Mary because he knew she had lot of money and that's all he was looking for. We all know, when we start attracting towards someone, we actually don't bother to know more and more about that person, everything seems perfect in the beginning and the same happened with Mary. Drake won her compassion and trust with his enormous intellect and charming personality but later she will realise that dating him was the biggest mistake of her life. 

⭐ While reading this story, I kept my fingers crossed because it's really painful to see a women who was leading a normal life suddenly caught in a web of horrible things. I felt pity for Mary and for all those women who might have suffered the same. Being a female, I really felt a connection with the character Mary, i felt bad for her. Even though, the story is fictional, but it contains ideas based on real events because we can't deny, what was happening with Mary, it happens in reality too. 

⭐ I really want this book to be read by every women, you all should be aware of this because I believe at least 4% of women in the world’s population can relate to the story. This is even a taboo subject but no woman dare to talk about it. I really appreciate M.L. Stark because at least through this story, she is talking about this thing and definitely trying to help women. The story is realistic and quite different from other stories which talks about psychopath and that's why I really liked this book and I am sure, if you are planning to grab your copy, you won't regret it.

Cover on the other hand is a very attractive one and complements the title. Overall, the outer look of the book is really appealing and grabs viewer’s attention.

Burning Desire Fades by M. L. Stark is a decent read of 333 pages and I loved reading it last night. I won’t lie but I was super excited to read it after reading the first one out. The book is divided into 43 beautiful titles and which presented where the story is heading out.

Coming to the plot the book introduces the progression of Doctor Bates's sinister agenda which will take you with its intense storyline in a haze of surprise.

The book has some of the elements which make it different from other book from the same genre. First one is the way and the sequence it has been written. It is written in such a way that it gives reader curiosity to read more. The second one is the feel, the emotions Transfered while reading the book are just amazing. I loved every part of it.

My Rating - 4.7/5 🌟

My Review📚

💕🌟Welcome back folks, another review is all set for you. This time we have an outstanding piece which you can totally relate and can even take motivation from. Yes! all you need is keep this excitement till the last line and here you go. Books are just so lovely, they have immense power and peace. This time we have something really good for you, and I'm sure you'll cherish every single part of it.

💕🌟Starting with the title of the book , Being a relevant one to the story the title also has the feature that is easy to understand and remember whereas the best one is that after the viewer reads the title for the first time it gives a certain curiosity to read more about it. The cover on the other hand compliments the title so I would say that the outer appearance of the book is really the one which attracts the viewer to buy and read it.

💕🌟Burning Desire: The Psychopath and the Girl in Black Prada Shoes by M. L. Stark is a long read of 358 pages which took time to finish but I was totally hooked to it. The first thing I loved about the book was how it was divided into 33 titles and they are all unique one giving a vibe where the story is heading too.

💕🌟Coming to the plot the protagonist is Mary whose life is being portrayed in the book who was guilty of allowing herself to be the prisoner of her miserable life. Sounds relatable? We all have been there. So this is a story of Mary falling in love , with a cunning character Drake who was manipulative at the first place. The word psychopath in the title is for Drake only , you will understand this when you will read it.

💕🌟 I will recommend each one of you to grab a copy to know
