I love novellas. They don't take up too much of my time. They don't drag on for books upon books. And usually they wrap up fairly neatly at the end.I downloaded this novella on a whim. I subscribe to Brazen Publishing's facebook updates. I saw this on facebook and downloaded it a few weeks ago. I didn't have the chance to read it until last night.So with an alcoholic beverage in hand, I sat down for some Mommy time and what I hoped was some fun.I had a hard time getting into the writing style at first. There is A LOT of description. At first I thought it was too much and the book might drag on. But within a few pages I was thankful for it.Set in London, yes! I love that this story was set in another country other than the US.The story is strong but short and I liked that. Each setting was drawn out and only a few scenes here and there were skipped (not written about). I hate when authors glaze over days and weeks in books. It leaves me feeling disconnected.The ending didn't wrap up into a neat little package, which was fine. Eduardo and Nina had only known each other a few weeks anyways, I can't expect them to live happily ever after.I didn't totally love the tidbits from Eduardo's point of view, but there were so few I was fine with it.And the sex scenes. They were hot. Not over the top hot, but hot enough where it seemed real.I think maybe I'm going a little overboard on the 5 star review, but a 4 star seems to low. Since I had a good time reading this, it was short enough to only last me to alcoholic beverages and a few hours of my time and it didn't leave me hanging I bumped what would normally be a 4.5 star to a 5.I'll definitely look for others from this author.
