Review: A little too short

to sufficiently develop either the storyline or the romance, at least for me.  (Review contains potential Spoilers.)In the beginning, I felt like I had missed a previous book.  The Heroine is thrust upon us as a strong and independent character, (which I liked) but then she just falls into lust with a perfect stranger who takes charge of her life.  And this supposedly strong woman allows it, even though she just came out of a relationship with another dominant male.  She also instantly acquires an amazing mental ability that she has never exhibited in almost 30 years.The new love interest doesn't tell her much, (not even his name) and yet she lets him hustle her off and hide her in his hotel room.  The 'Watcher' group that he's involved in is never explained very well.  Why she has to be somewhere at the start of the Solstice is never elaborated upon.  The super powers that she gets when the Solstice occurs and why she gets those powers is still foggy for me by the end of the book. If she is this superwoman that was foretold, then you'd think that more than one of the Watchers would have shown up to help her out against the evil guys.The sex happens every few pages, so the plot never had a real chance to fill in these gaps.  I normally like some spicy sex, but the short relationship did not allow me to accept the connection between the two.On the plus side, the writing was good, the idea wasn't too bad, and it was a fast and sexy adult read.
