I had the biggest girl crush on Beth in the first book of this series, Tease, that I was absolutely thrilled that Missy Johnson had written a book all about her. I knew for a fact that this would be a scorcher because let's face it, Missy Johnson knows how to spice up a book.Promiscuous however, was an unfortunate let down for me. I'm not saying that this book was a disaster because it isn't. So let me break it down to my likes and dislikes.Likes:1) the writer's story telling flowed well. I never felt like I was jumping from one place to another.2) the sex scenes, though not as intense as I would have expected, were still very sensual and I'm glad that Missy's signature spice didn't falter.3) I loved that Missy managed to keep Beth's innocence in tact considering the challenges and tragedies she had faced in the past and the ones she's dealing with now.Dislikes:1) the dialogue between the characters felt off to me... Thought the entire story itself flowed well, I felt the dialogue was quite broken..2) I also felt like the whole revelation was rushed because too much mundane details were dragged on during the beginning of the book3) and the biggest issue I had was the lack of connection and chemistry I felt between Beth and Roman. Their relationship felt forced and staged. I couldn't grasp how they could both profess their love for each other when they were both still hung up on other people... I would go as far as to say that they settled for each other.I am a big, big fan of Missy Johnson and would continue to read her books. It may just be me, that had issues with Roman's and Beth's relationship (in truth because I truly wish she would have ended up in Coop's arms). I look forward to the follow up, Scandalous in hopes that my disappointed could be cured.
