Release Blitz & Tour: Am I the Only One by E.K. Blair
Desperation had a flavor.
It was all Emma could taste as her life in Washington DC started to crumble before her.
In a city filled with prestige and American dreams also lay political fallacy and corruption—corruption she would soon find herself indulging in.
Emma would have done anything to save herself from the downfall, gone to any length, sacrificed her soul if needed.
What she didn’t realize was that someone else was more desperate to save their own life and that the worst was yet to come.

My review is about to be short and sweet. Sorry about that, I don't want to say much for fear of accidentally spoiling something and as cliché as it may sound, this is one book you need to go into blind.
Am I the Only One is a twisted story of physiological warfare. The mind games between each player still has me reeling, hours after finishing the book. A book I stayed up until the wee hours of morning so engrossed in I could not put it down. To say I'm impressed by this first-time author to me is an understatement. It isn't often I walk away from a book so conflicted. I think the last one that left me like that was The Wives by Tarryn Fisher.
Emma, Carly, Tripp, Olivia, and Luca are all characters you will at some point love, hate, sympathize with, and want to bitch slap into next year. There will be some eye rolling moments, some swoon worthy ones, and last but definitely not least some what the fuck ones. When I say this cast fucks with your mind, believe me.
I found this quote on line and it fits the narrative perfectly:
"Lies teach people things are not what they seem, while the truth lies far beneath the surface"-author unknown
And just an FYI, that ending...will leave you blindsided.
E.K. Blair, takes her readers on an emotional roller coaster with her dynamic and intense writing style. Noted for her ability to create fleshed-out characters that will evoke a realm of reactions, you can be assured that her stories will linger with you far beyond the last word.
A former first grade teacher with an imagination that runs wild. Daydreaming and zoning out is how she was often found in high school. Blair tends to drift towards everything dark and moody. Give her a character and she will take pleasure in breaking them down, digging into their core to find what lies underneath.
