I really LOVE Kristen Ashley's writing and eat her books up like candy...but this one I didn't LOVE more just liked it a lot. There were some parts that got repetitive and OMG I got so sick of hearing "Uh..."  or "Sam..." and it seemed to go on forever...way too long and could have been edited to get more to the point.It started off really good and I was sucked into the awesome story of Kia meeting the man candy (and celebrity crush) Sam and the delicious chase that followed. It was sexy and exciting and was like a long extended session of foreplay leading to the main attraction! But then it got bogged down (way too many details and characters popping up) and when the mysterious circumstances of the "hit" and the money start to come in play, it turns from a romance into a thriller. Sam's back and forth mood swings and Kia's emotionally fragile state, while understandable to a point, got on my nerves when they went on and on...over and over (the repetitive thing again). This was an older book so I can definitely see how Ashley has improved her writing over time and learned to trim the excess baggage from her books. A really emotional angsty read compared to some of her newer works...an HEA and left open for more stories for other characters!****4**** sexy Italian stars =)
