Writing a review for this book poses an extreme dilemma for me.  I have been procrastinating this review for nearly a month.  The story pulls at the heartstrings with a moving and sexy new romance, and ping-pongs back and forth from discovering new love, to gut wrenching anxiety.  The love scenes varied from sweet and tender, to hot and steamy - and I loved them all. There were moments when I could not read fast enough, and other moments when I actually could not catch my breath.  Ms. Witt does an excellent job in conveying the full range of emotion and passion.  I was a happy camper until - arg - a cliffhanger.  I don't have enough polite words in my vocabulary to express my displeasure! I am not a fan of this distressing trend.  On the one hand, I feel emotionally invested and care about these characters, I want to know what happens to them.  But on the other hand, I am resentful of the abrupt and dramatic ending. I felt much like I had been left dangling from the flag pole, in a short skirt, on a stormy day... raw and exposed.  So, feeling as I do, can I recommend this novella to others?  It IS an emotive story and merits a read, but I feel compelled to add this warning label - recommended for adults who like sensual romance and don't mind having their heart repeatedly constricted and inflamed, then forcibly removed for transplant, with no donor forthcoming for months on end. Grumble... grumble...
