I wasn't sure what to expect when reading this book ... or who to root for as the hero! It's hard to say much about the plot itself without giving away spoilers, so let me just state that McKinzie S. Heart has a fascinating idea here, unique and interesting. I'm an avid reader and can honestly say I've never read this particular plot before.Though this is marketed as erotic romance, the sex is pretty vanilla. It's frequent and hot, but nothing outside the norm (unless you count outdoor sex and sex against a gravestone...), though interestingly enough in this story, the sex is absolutely required. There would be no story without it.My only complaint is that things felt terribly rushed. I really appreciated the clever plot, so was frustrated at the breathless pace we were pushed through the story. I would have liked more information about the heroine's "sensitive" nature, would loved to have met the hero prior to his, hmmm... unfortunate circumstances. I just think it could have been so much deeper and complete with more pages. It might be a reflection of my interest in the storyline that I wanted more!I did love the ending, though, as it was a HEA for all concerned and well executed. If this is a clue into the breadth of imagination of the author, then I'll be on the lookout for more!For a unique and hot romance with a twist you wouldn't expect, I'd recommend Soul Mate, especially if you're short on time and want a quick snack instead of an entire meal.
