I got an email recommendation from an author I follow, so I blindly believed the good reviews and purchased this book. I won't make that mistake again! This book is BAD on so many levels. The first is that it takes place in the U.S., but it is written in the queen's English. If you're going to write fiction using queen's English, have the story take place in England, Canada, Australia or NZ (ever hear "Write what you know"?). Second, the h of the story is making out with the H, whom she has just met, by page 6 of the story. Third, she is supposed to be so afraid of being around H that she has asked for the time off, but here she is minutes after meeting him making out with him. Fourth, she is a victim of violence, who still doesn't know the difference between abuse and BDSM, even after having been in a battered women's shelter and in counseling for years. Fifth, the whole battered women's shelter aspect of the story is a total joke and so poorly done the author should be slapped! Sixth, there is no plausibility to this story and the character's actions in it, and the conversations and actions are all unbelievable and cheesy.  Seventh, there is nothing, AND I MEAN NOTHING, to recommend about this story, except to say NO!
