I've been a fan of Cheryl's writing since I read Sometimes Never. For every book, her stories get better. The writing has always been beautiful, just exceptionally fluid and effortless, but with this short story--first installment in a new serial--it got even better. I'm not going to blurt out spoilers here. The readers should be allowed to experience those moments of picking their jaws up off the floor throughout this passionate, intense story without my interference. But wow. Let me just sum it up: this is gritty, raw, deep, and real. What the characters go through, their broken psyches--their struggles--it's easy to relate despite their crazy actions. And why is that, you say? Because it's described in the sure words of an expert. I'm already looking forward to the next installment. And here I thought I'd never fall prey to serials. ;-)
