My Review:
This one took me a little bit to get into, but then I was hooked. This is a very touching novel, while still remaining hot and racy. Emotions are the center point of this novel. It is charged on many different levels, leading to a real experience. Maxxwell really conveys the characters’ emotions to her audience, drawing you in close for one heck of a ride. I quite enjoyed getting to know the characters over a period of time. You not only saw where they came from but how they got where they are now. The characters themselves are a little hard to connect with at times, but they are quite well suited to the story itself. Based on their characteristics it’s easy to see why things happen the way that they do. My biggest peeve was actually the ending. I almost felt like the author was trying to give the reader some sort of a HEA, which really didn’t fit with the rest of the story for me. Sure, it was later in life for both the characters, but bringing them back together like that was just awkward for the characters.

My Review:
This novel is definitely firmly placed in the erotica category. That said, even in that genre I need to get to know the characters. Those presented in this novel are extremely superficial. Yes they have attitudes and beliefs but there’s nothing more to them than the storyline itself. You do get to know them a bit better throughout the story, but there’s never any real connection with the characters.
Overall, this was a captivating and very hot story. It was an enjoyable read.
