Review: Good writing, but could have been better.

Rating this book with 3 starts is slightly pushing it for me. Not to say that this author cannot write, she can. The story, and the chemistry between the leads was just dry. She needed to describe these characters better, what they looked like, and give them some personality and life. They were not developed enough in my opinion to be likable, they were boring. The theme did not bother me as much as it would have previously. I usually don't like to read about infidelity because I get caught up in all the moral issues, and emotions associated with it. Letting that go some time ago, I decided to read this, and the cheating issue was not a problem for me. The husband was a sleaze who banged anything with a pulse pretty much. I did feel the guilt with Caton cheating on her girlfriend Laura with her boss's wife. Caton cheating on her sweet and attentive girlfriend was sad to read about, Caton only redeemed herself by confessing and eventually letting Laura go, one of her rarest moments of backbone.The dynamic between Caton and Amelia left so much to be desired, their chemistry was non-existent and this theme, this idea the author had could have been so much better. Caton and Amelia should have sizzled off the page and you should have wanted to root for them. There is a good amount of sex between them, but since their chemistry was so dull, the sex was dull, it did nothing for me. The author was great at inner monologues, showing she can in fact write, but overall the story was missing that spark that could have made it so much better.3 stars for good writing3 stars for the ideaOnly 3 stars because it lacked spark
