WHILE YOU’RE AWAY Part I is a fast-paced and entertaining introduction that sets the stage well for what looks to be a fun and sexy story. It consists of the first six chapters in Jessa Holbrook’s six-part serialized novel and gives readers a tease of the complicated situation that Sarah Westlake and Will Spencer have gotten themselves into.While only a short peek into the characters’ lives is given, enough is revealed to get a sense of who Sarah is, what her relationship with her boyfriend Dave is, and what her feelings for Will are. Right from the start the author introduces conflict into the story, creates sizzling chemistry between two of her characters, and by developing enough of Sarah’s backstory begins to create angst.Readers are brought into the story at a pivotal moment in Sarah’s, life, a moment that changes everything - whether for the better is still to be determined. By doing so, it creates a story that is lightning-fast and instantly captivating.And even with just a fraction of this story told in this first part, Jessa Holbrook’s ability to create romantic tension, characters that readers will want to get to know more of, and scenes that are wickedly sexy, makes WHILE YOU’RE AWAY a must keep reading book.
