Reading the story of a blended family where children, no related by blood, are attracted to each other, I was expecting seduction, guilt and some huge drama.I expect that Matt give into his attraction. Sure he succombed! But perhaps he might have wait a bit longer to do so.Indeed, the first night, he manages to be a gentleman and the next day he forgets all his good resolutions ... A little easy, right?Personally, I would have liked to see him suffer a little more internaly. If only because he is the oldest and the most sensitive to the fact that the woman he lust after has always been looking for trouble.I wanted a romantic story. I got one. However, the all novel is too short to allow a real story to take place. Therefore, the whole action was taking place in the bedroom... Ok, but it may be lacking of some depth.Necessarily with a sensitive topic, limit incestuous, I expected dramas before accepting (or not) their relationship. At least from their parent point of vue.Again, this part is too fast swept by a backhand. Certainly, there are consequences, but to my taste, the author has not developped the full potential of her plot.Emotionally, there is no confusion or guilt from the characters. Even the parent's acceptance is too fast. In short, the story lacks emotional suspense.All ingredients of this plot, however, are given to bring the story to its climax. Here, it is as if the mayonnaise was not mounted. The dish is good, a bit light, but it lacks interesting flavors of seasonings to make it unforgettable.Lucienewbooksonmyselves.blogspot.fr
