Too Much, Lea GriffithReview from Jeannie Zelos Book reviews.I do love erotic romance so was looking forward to this one. I didn't really enjoy it though – there seemed to be sex on every other page, which would be fine if it was backed up by a decent story but for me that part fell short and * shrug * all that sex just became boring without anything deep for it to relate too.I felt neither Daly or Jeremiah really knew what they wanted. If everything was so hot, so needy, so intense between them, how had they managed to stay apart for three years? The novel does give reasons but they just didn't fit for me. There seemed to be lots of angsty soul searching but getting no where on both sides. I felt the Savannah angle would have made for some great jealous scenes and yet...nothing really. I just didn't get the sense of them as people, as we saw little of them in their everyday lives, just their sexual interludes, which I began skipping trying to find the story. The excuses about trust issues didn't work for me either :( so I found it hard to empathise with them.Sadly some you win, some you lose and for me this one was lost. As ever though remember I’m just one reader and everyone likes different things. Just because it didn't work for me doesn't mean you won't love it. I'm just giving my opinion and reasons here, its not a judgement of the story, just how I felt about it. I can see from the Goodreads reviews that there are many readers for whom this was a fantastic book.Stars:two and a half. Just not one for me :(ARC supplied by Netgalley
