The best part of this book was the beginning. I am not so content with the middle because there were some confusing bits that left me hanging but the end was reassuring. I wasn't bouncing off the walls or hanging off the edge of my seat, but I stayed with the story until the end. In 42 pages Sandra captured a lot but she also left some things to be desired.I think the title was a bit off.Meet Ralph who is incredibly handsome and confident. He is on a role in a bar, having the time of his life when in walks the equally stunning Alice. It doesn't go down the way you think it would (and it did go down), Alice ends up leaving a lingering taste for more in his mouth after she blows his mind. All I can say is what a way to meet someone.The story has a grabbing beginning and a plot filled with twists and turns along the way but when the suspense kicked in I lost my bearings for a few pages. I was trying desperately to put the pieces together before the end gave everything away. The book did not flow as well as some of her better stories do and there were some abrupt areas. This was the main drawback.The characters were very interesting. I have a friend named Ralph and he isn't nearly as complex as the one in this story, which is a good thing because then I may lose a bet and God knows what next. I have been in that situation where I dialed a wrong number and it happened to be someone I knew. Their unexpected reunion in the wake of a tragic circumstance reminded me of 'Untouched' when Abby realized that the detective assigned to her missing persons case was her ex flame. If not for the wildly stimulating first encounter, I would not have been so intrigued about the second.Ralph needed closure after been teased by Alice instead Sandra takes you down a thrilling and suspenseful path with an ending you didn't see coming. Good sex scenes that fit in well with the story. It all came together nicely and I had a good time reading this.
