Review: Good read but lacking

I like the idea of the story. The fact that Lauren is on a bachelorette/bachelor weekend celebration for her little sister and her fiance/Lauren's crush. While at the bar "celebrating" she locks eyes with a sexy stranger who just so happens to be flashing the handkerchief signal for a one night fling. She has always been interested in S&M; and the black handkerchief in Jamie's back left pocket promises just that.However, the story was lacking for me. The characters didn't really have a past. I didn't really feel a connection with them. Yeah, you got the sense that Lauren's sister takes advantage of her and is a total b*... jerk to Lauren but that's pretty much it. You get a snippet of Jamie's past and the fact that his mother had marital issues but no matter what his father always took her back. So you know that they both have emotional issues but for some reason I just didn't feel for them.It was a fun and entertaining read, don't get me wrong but I would have liked a bit more in the character development.I should note that this is all new to me. I thought the story sounded good and decided to read it. After reading about handkerchief signals, I wikipedia'd it and learned quite a bit. I will never look at a handkerchief the same.
