Review: Short, but awesome.

I will admit that I usually don't "get" sci-fi, fantasy, or the like. Somehow, it's totally possible for me to easily believe that a hooker can marry a billionaire (ala Pretty Woman) but mention an alien and I'm totally thrown out of the story and crash back to reality.But, I also love books that are FREE. Since this is a short (and by short, I mean, half hour to read, tops) story, I figured that I wouldn't be wasting too much time or effort to give it a go.I loved it. It was short, but sweet and steamy. Somehow, the author made me care deeply about the h and H with a minimal amount of fuss or muss. I think it attests to the strength of author's writing ability that ten minutes into her story, I not only felt a mix of emotions (sad for what the h had gone through, happy for what I suspected would be the beginning of the h's HEA, and excited to take a journey through this new world), but I was invested in the outcome of the characters and fascinated by the vision of a different world that the author was giving me a glimpse into.I usually reserve 5 stars for books I know I will read again. I won't read this again, simply because it was so short and I have a lot of other titles on my booklist. But this was a perfect lunchroom read, and I will definitely check out more by this author.Even if you aren't a fan of fantasy or sci-fi, give this short story a try. The romance is fantastic.
