I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. As a fellow writer I understand how hard it is to get the word out about your first book when you self-publish. I also understand the difficulties involved when you must edit your work, even after it has passed through several sets of eyes. Any errors I come across I communicate directly to the author and do not take them into account when I make a review.When I review a book I look more at the storyline, the character development and the authors ability to keep me engrossed from the beginning to end. As for this story I will admit that while the story was enjoyable and did keep me interested from the first page I was a little disappointed which is why I only gave the story three stars. I felt the author had a great story premise but relied too much on the sex scenes to carry the reader through as opposed to developing the characters themselves. Don’t get me wrong the sex scenes were incredible but because I didn’t feel the characters come to life; I felt like I was reading a cheap thrill as opposed to an incredible piece. I also figured out the villain and guessed the climax which to me was a letdown. If you want a quick read with great sex; this is the book. If you are one that wants to be drawn into a book to the point that the outside world doesn’t exist and experience the depth of emotion the characters feel than this one will be lacking. I believe Ms. Wells shows talent and do look forward to her growth as a writer. I would recommend this book to my fellow readers though since this is just my opinion and having read other reviews this book has been well received.
