Review: 2.5 stars... with potential for 5 with a totally different focus

I wanted to like this story, but there is just so much I couldn't stand.  I finished it in a few hours because I skimmed over all the gratuitous sex scenes.  Like unnecessary descriptions of sexual acts that added nothing, I mean nothing to the story line but make the heroine look like a fool.  There were moments and twists in the plot that were good enough to keep me engaged in the story and even consider reading the next installment, but I am afraid it will be just as unnecessarily gratuitous as this one was.The author really has potential, but I believe she hides behind explicit scenes to drive her story.  Also I feel like there was some lacking in Kai's character development.  We get more about her sex life than her drive as a journalist.  It's like that's the only thing important to her.  And it makes her a little bit shallow.  Really the saving grace of this tale is the added mystery twist to the plot.  With out it I would have stopped 30% into the book.  Maybe it's for somebody, but I wouldn't recommend this book.
