Review: Hot, but missing something

This was an interestingly hot erotic romance. I wasn't quite sure about it when it started. I never really got a feeling for either of the characters. There was a lot of surface stuff, but nothing much deeper than that. At first I was uncertain about the time frame of the story. Althea was such an old fashioned lady that I felt like I was reading a historical romance at times, but then Steel was so obviously modern that I knew it couldn't be a historical. It was interesting to watch Althea open up and change her prim and properness. I still didn't really get a good feel for who she was in either state, but it was obvious she was growing. Steel on the other hand was just a typical bad boy, with a bad childhood and a heart of gold. There wasn't much more to him, although his art did sound very intriguing.Overall the book was entertaining and at times very hot. I will definitely try something else by this author...maybe something longer next time that has more depth to it.ARC Provided by Carina Press and Netgalley
