BRIEF SYNOPSIS:Faith has admired Adrian from a distance for some time. Due to a chance meeting out in the slippery snow, fate gives Faith an opportunity to let go of her inhibitions & just go for it with Adrian. With lustful thoughts leading the way, the two head back to her apartment and things get steamy. However, some misunderstandings complicate things and threatens to pull them apart.REVIEW:Blind Faith by Evelyn Jules was such a pleasant surprise! To be honest, I didn't expect much considering this is a novelette, but boy was I wrong. For a short story, author Jules packed in a lot & I was blown away at how well-written this story was. I've read many novelettes & while it's harder to pull off a good story within a limited word count, author Jules did it beautifully with Blind Faith.This story was thoroughly enjoyable from the first to the last page. I expected "wham bam thank-you ma'am" but the story did not turn out like that. There was an ACTUAL plot that drove the story. As another reviewer stated, there were warmth & poignancy in the story. Evelyn Jules also did a stellar job at writing the heart-pumping love scenes ;) I also became quickly attached to the characters & found myself cheering for Adrian & Faith. They were realistically written & likeable. I also liked the author's writing style; the writing flowed smoothly. Furthermore, the story was fast-paced & the plot was developed. The ending of the story left me begging for more time with Adrian & Faith. I did not want their story to end! Overall, I highly enjoyed this sexy novelette by Evelyn Jules. With that said, I will be looking forward to more works by this author in the future.
