This book was a bit disappointing. It had a good concept and the writing was okay. The plot started all right, then began to oscillate between erotica and overwrought emotional nonsense. I don't mind sex in my romances and this was pretty good erotica, but I can get good erotica for free from a half-dozen places on the internet. Plus, for me, sex in a romance novel is more the sprinkles on the emotional sundae, not the point of the plot. In erotica, sex is the point, which is fine but not what I was looking for in a romantic plotline.The plot was the big disappointment. The lifesaving aspect, which was presented as a selling point, was dropped quickly and without impacting the story in any way. It could have just not been included and you wouldn't have noticed. The characters seemed well fleshed out at the beginning, only to devolve into overreacting, over-emotional messes, impulsively declaring love and hate at the drop of a hat. If an author uses the "'I can explain!' 'No! I'm too mad!! I'm going to run off and refuse to speak to you ever again!'" cliche, I'm automatically annoyed.This book was not worth reading.
