Review: Adult Romance Drama to watch out for!
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 02 4, 2013
The start of this story already had a bang and an umph!What do I love about this story?  Undeniably, it is the capability of the story to outright get my interest and make me look forward to what will happen next.  It got me hooked!  I already know just by reading the first page that I am on for a hot, steamy, sexy story but I wasn't expecting the events that happened after that fateful encounter in the club.  And it wasn't their real beginning yet.The real start of their beautiful love story began with THE CALL.Ralph meeting Alice had a life-altering effect on him and for Alice as well.  With the twists and turns of the story, I realized that both characters are complex, both have their inner conflicts, their own problems but both fell in love with each other as fate deemed so.As I go reading the story, I get to know who Ralph really is just as I am able to grasp Alice's real character.  And Ralph is much more than the sexy playboy he was first depicted as.  And Alice is more than the woman who rattled Ralph's boring world or the woman who gave THE CALL.  In my mind, they live as if they are my friendly neighbours - like as if they are real, breathing people instead of characters in a story.I can't say yet if this book was able to meet my expectations as I am bound to read book 2.  (I have to read Book 2!)  Still, I can very well say that Ross' story telling is superb in this score.  She effectively sent me to Ralph and Alice's world, let me know who they really are, make me realize that their problems are problems just like what real people encounter, and that what their experiences are the experiences of real people.  She made me sympathize with the characters, understand their conflict and cheer out for the story in a whole.I am only starting to read Sandra Ross and just hope she continues the bang and the umph.  I am now looking forward to Ralph's Gift 2.
