This was a short story (novella), but felt longer due to the author's well developed writing style. It should have felt rushed, yet it wasn't. Perhaps that's because it's really only a fraction of a story. The inescapable truth with this book is that it's only the opening act to what looks to be a much longer tale. However, at $1.00, I'm not going to complain too long and loud, as the ending isn't exactly a cliffhanger - you could choose not to read the next book and just leave the future of this couple up in the air, somewhat unresolved, rather than on a knife's edge.I will probably read the next instalment, if only to find out if the hero, who promises wicked things to the heroine, actually delivers. Despite his verbal play, he was pretty tame in this novel and all the intimate scenes were pretty vanilla. Having said that, I suspect there's plenty of potential, because both hero and heroine allude to wanting way more interesting things than is delivered on this occasion.Entertaining, well-written, but really only a small part of a (hopefully) more detailed story.
