Review: Decent Short Read, Nothing Amazing

As far as a Novella goes, this one wasn't anything special.  Like most novellas, due to length, this one struggled with anything regarding character and plot development.  It starts in the middle of a story, though you are filled in on background info throughout.  Nothing really amazing or noteworthy.  The characters are decent though seem to have an instant sexual attraction that felt very rushed, especially since it slowed down a bit later before picking back up.  The hero ended up completing his quest without much help/aid from the heroine.  They were apart as quickly as they were together and then because this is a romance with a happy ending, they got back together at the end.Not a whole lot else to say.  The premise behind the hero's quest was interesting, though I wasn't sure why his torture had to be sexual when the mummy behind the course did not come off as a sexual creature.  More like a mother mourning the loss of her child.  Not sure how deciding to torture the man for decades with sexual unfulfilled dreams relates, but it was certainly unique.
