Human's perspectives on things can truly vary quite a bit. However, not all novels are able to express that quite as vividly as this one. Strangers Just This Night is exactly the sort of novel that might not seem to appear to be very full of meaning and deep thought from the cover or from the moment the reader holds it in his or her hands- but once he or she begins to turn the pages and actually read and ponder the content, it becomes apparent that no matter how it had actually seemed to be at first, now it is in reality much more than just a simple little story that has been retold in the form of meaningless words.Sandra Ross happens to be, luckily, one of the kinds of authors who have truly begun to understand the requirements that readers usually specifically focus on when they are looking for a great read. Readers in general tend to seek things that have some kind of definition- books that will make them really think about the turn of events that occurs within them and start to positively acknowledge what is going on and what each and every character is actually experiencing throughout their tale. What would be the point of reading something that does not intrigue you and make you wonder about certain things- from love to devotion to passion to seduction? As the list of topics may range, for this kind of erotic romance, at least, Sandra Ross does an excellent job making not only the reader question reality through proposing different viewpoints of sexuality and personal wishes, she also does well with her descriptions of the characters- both physically and mentally. This thus provides for the reader a great insight of not only what the people in the story look like themselves, but also what they are feeling and experiencing, along with their personalities. Most books do not penetrate so far into their characters' lives. They only write of flattened cardboard cutouts that have things happen to them unavoidably. But this is what I enjoyed so much about Sandra Ross's Strangers Just This Night- it was the complete opposite of those bad writing skills. Instead of making the characters from outside descriptions, Sandra Ross went deep to explore their inner hopes, strengths, desires, and beliefs. What do women want in a man? Even if they are sexy beyond measure, will they continue seeking someone who is not only as handsome but also intelligent and interesting as a person? It is so captivating to live out the life of a beautiful woman who wishes to find her perfect match in the chaos of reality.
