About this ebook

"Christian, I've been yours since I said yes." I scoot forward, cupping his beloved face in my hands. "I'm yours. I will always be yours, husband of mine. Now, I think you're wearing too many clothes."

When unworldly student Anastasia Steele first encountered the driven and dazzling young entrepreneur Christian Grey it sparked a sensual affair that changed both of their lives irrevocably. Shocked, intrigued, and, ultimately, repelled by Christian's singular erotic tastes, Ana demands a deeper commitment. Determined to keep her, Christian agrees.

Now, Ana and Christian have it all—love, passion, intimacy, wealth, and a world of possibilities for their future. But Ana knows that loving her Fifty Shades will not be easy, and that being together will pose challenges that neither of them would anticipate. Ana must somehow learn to share Christian's opulent lifestyle without sacrificing her own identity. And Christian must overcome his compulsion to control as he wrestles with the demons of a tormented past.

Just when it seems that their strength together will eclipse any obstacle, misfortune, malice, and fate conspire to make Ana's deepest fears turn to reality.

Ratings and reviews

So I have already read through the first two and am not particularly impressed with the writing. Ana was a little too annoying, silly and down right irritating. I tried to understand where the author was going with her character but it just fell flat for me....am frankly not interested enough to read the third book....frustrating part is that this coulda been a great book with another author- maybe one with a little more experience ....too many references to the "inner goddess" (yuk)....very disappointed

I love to read; and enjoyed the whole series. I found book 1 and book 2 to repeat words that should have died from their over uses. However the story line was tantalizing, heartstoppin, and unpredictable at times. I had to continue to read all 3. The relationship was relatable on many levels that most have experienced and it sucked you in. As stated before there many words overly used but EL james kept you wanting more and more

This was the worst book out of all three. It was too rushed and tried to put in more drama to show how Ana's life has changed "so dramatically" The wedding was barely even five pages, the honeymoon was WAY too long. Even though the book is supposed to be all about the "sex" there still should be a good plot line, which evaporated in the second book. The first two books were decent but this last book was a disappointment. Could have easily been split into two books or could have gotten rid of half of the book's drama that seemed forced to add more excitement in the book. This book was a waste of my time.
