I may be a little early for Valentine's Day, but simply couldn't resist sharing. After all, there isn't a more appropriate subject than love, nor a more intriguing idea than a bet between Cupid and his mother. Add in a 300-year-old witch, 100 years of unrequited love, a culinary ghost, and ... gimme that book!Blind Lust is some of the most flat-out fun I've had with a book in a very long time.Thanks to that intrepid meddler ... er ... incorrigible imp, Cupid, every time Lizzy and Josh get near each other sparks fly, flames start, and this reader goes weak in the knees. I swear, the temperature went up in the room. And, at the same time, I found myself grinning, constantly. (That giggle was not me, I swear.)The situation is just so perfectly drawn - unable to help themselves and poor Lizzy fighting it at every turn. Okay, almost every turn. Then, we have poor Wesley, watching the results of Cupid's arrows and simply oozing attraction, testosterone, and 100 years of witchy frustration. (NB: there is a 'heat' warning with this book, although I, personally, found it perfectly acceptable for YA readers.)If you're looking for a great, can't-put-it-down, fun story - this novella is it. And - there's a rumor that the guy who didn't get the girl, may be getting his own story.Nope. Not gonna tell.~*~*~Disclosure of Material Connection: I received a complimentary electronic copy of this book from the author. I was not required to write a positive review.
