Review: Interesting twist
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 10 18, 2013
Raw is the first book in the Torn Between to Lovers series. This quick read is loaded with intrigue, romance and hot sex. There's an added element to this story that author Jo Davis has added that I find quite refresh - the reader gets to vote on which guy (TeamGrayson or TeamJoaquin) Anna gets to keep. For the unique opportunity to help choice the final hero, I would recommend reading this series.My vote on Anna is still iffy on if I like her character. For such a smart woman, running her own restaurant, toast of the town, she seemed too clueless about all the shenanigans going on under her very nose. I prefer my leading female characters to be a bit more intelligent than that. Of course, no story that has an undercover agent would be complete without some intrigue, which is excellently provided by one uber sexy Grayson James, FBI agent, posing as a lowly prep chef in her kitchen. The thought alone sends me into giggles until I think how yummy him and Anna were together. I did think their relationship progressed fast but I guess since this is a quick read at 80 pages that was to be expected. Personally, absolute favorite part of the book was the introduction of Sterling. I won't elaborate so I don't spoil it but can I just say a big AWWWW!Since this is a trilogy, there is most obviously a cliffhanger but instead of it being `wait to see what happens next' scenario the author has put a new spin on it. Instead of the author deciding who Anna chooses, choice that will be determined by reader votes. That is unique concept for a romance book and notches this review up a star just for adding that little twist. Most obviously, book #1 in the Torn Between Two Lovers series is about Anna with Gray. I'm going to go out on a limb and say book #2 will be Anna with Joaquin. I'm very curious to see how this series will end and plan on voting myself...that is after I read the next book.I received this book from JeepDiva for the express purposes of an honest review. The opinions and rating of this review are solely mine and in no way was I compensated.Stars - 4 Flames - 3
