Review: Disappointing Bit of Nothing

After skipping over the parts I didn't want to read again I was basically left with a couple sentences. I tried to involve myself in this tidbit but kept skimming because I just cannot take another scene of Anita's whining, or description of the pretty vamps, or the static bathtub scene. Beating that horse way too long now. No passion, no build-up and just no heat whatsoever.I remember that short in Bite, I think it was, with JC and the chocolate frosting. It was so well written that years later I can remember Anita going to the club and watching JC dance, and then going to his office to talk about a problem with Malcolm's vamps, JC flirting and little bit begging for some and it ended with Anita going to the circus an hour before dawn with a jar of chocolate frosting - very sweet. This was a really great short that was out I think a bit before NIC. It has a beginning, middle and end that was entirely satisfying.This bit of cringe-worthy fluff was just not up to par and entirely forgettable. Should have gone back to the frosting if she keeps wanting to be topped in some way.As for the preview chapter I should have gotten for free - also disappointing. Doesn't even get me interested in checking out KTD. How about a few sentences on what time of night is it, who is watching the interview, sneak peak of the case and so on instead of describing the vamp's eyes or her stilettos, thong and thigh highs. And the interplay of getting him to confess would have Brenda Lee reaching for the chocolate ho-hos. The anticipation is just not there for me. Bad writing - no cookie!(Read it during work break on friend's Kindle.)
