I was kind of split in the middle with this read. I enjoyed the author's last book Soca Nights and was esthetic about it, but felt with envy that excitement wasn't there, for me it was just ok. The a product preview of this book  was surely an eye catcher, not to mention the first couple pages of the book. The way I will describe  review it may contain spoilers.Dee and Nina have been best friends, unfortunately Dee passes away leaving behind her husband Oliver and three children. At the funeral Oliver believed that Dee cheated on him, because Nina tried to convince him of this. Nina has been obsess with Oliver since she was 13 years old and finally got her chance to get rid of Dee and have Oliver all to her self, but it doesn't exactly work out that way. This is were it gets tricky, Dee's spirit was able to see Nina's lies and found some way to take over her body and be with Oliver.I really liked the concept of the story but I felt the characters had no feeling to them. I  know Oliver was in mourning and dealing with the anger of thinking his wife cheated but he didn't do it for me. I didn't think or felt like he was sexy because of the situation, Nina who was really Dee felt emotionless at times. I needed to read excitement but I felt like I was reading just to read. Towards the middle it started picking up for me but the sex between both Oliver and Nina who is really Dee was ok because he thought he was having sex with Nina so he detach himself mentally during sex.Even though Oliver was in mourning and Dee is trying to be different and not be simple and boring like she thought she was in her marriage before, I thought Oliver and Dee should have loosen up, thrown caution to the wind and have hot steamy exciting sex to the point where Oliver  really felt  guilty not knowing why he is enjoying it with a connection for Nina he isn't able to explain. I think that would have made the differenceThe title and product preview surely had me thinking it was going to be some juicy hot mess but it wasn't.  I do like the author and still hope to read more of her work In the future.Storyline: FAIR to GOODIntimacy: FAIREnjoyment FAIR
