After the first Shaken Dirty book  i had high expectations for book two. And I wanted to love it I really did, but there where some things for me that made this book a little unbelievable.At the beginning of the book we find out that Elise has had some very serious damage to three metacarpal bones in her left hand. Now if the damage was as severe as stated in the book then she would've ended up in a cast something similar to this [...] I didn't have any problem with the injury as such but for me it felt like the writer completely forgot that her heroine had her hand in cast for the rest of the book. There is never any mention of her hand in a sling which it would be for a while with such a serious injury.  She has both a shower and a bath and there is no mention of having to cover up her cast so it doesn't get wet. She rides a motorcycle and uses both her hands to hold onto the hero. And when they have sex he has to remove her bra which does up at the back. Any woman who has ever had one hand out of commission knows unless the bra does up at the front or someone helps you to put it on you are going with out. Later on in the book she's also referred to as having a broken wrist instead of fingers which was confusing. This is just a small list of continuity issue with this book there are so many things i read where i was like there is no way she'd be able to do that with her hand in a cast.There were also some weird sentences like this one 'the front was so long that his bangs flopped crazily over his forehead, down his cheeks, and into his eyes.' am i the only on that thinks this is physically impossible.All of this being said the emotional elements and the practical jokes where great and the story line it's self was good.  I just wish i'd been able to get into the book more instead of constantly being pulled out of it by unrealistic occurrences.Overall I give this book 3.75 out of 5
