Review: Sweet story with great topics and an interesting arc of suspense

In “A Little Bit Of Trouble” Murphy improves her writing style and storytelling abilities. While I had my difficulties with Maya's narration - I enjoyed the funny scenes but couldn’t feel her sad moments - I connected with Lucas' story, felt the character's emotions and couldn’t put the book away. The story is written in his first-person narrative. Only the epilogue is in Loryn's first-person perspective. He addresses the readers directly and interrupts his narration with thoughts and comments. With his narration I laughed out loud, teared up and cried a little. Murphy balances the story's emotionalism with his manly point of view very well. Even with his grief and guilt he is through and through an alpha. Another improvement is Murphy's arc of suspense. She uses more and more methods to increase the story's suspense and for a short time I was afraid of the ending. The contribution of other storylines besides the love, sex and relationship of Loryn and Lucas is a great thing. I really liked the length of the book and the wide range of the topics.I really excited about the continuation of Maya's and James' story and the hints about Marie and Jacob. I'm only a little bit disappointed that Maya's and James' relationship is reduced to their immature pranks at the beginning of the story. It is funny for a while but gets boring at the middle of the book. I can't wait for Marie's and Jacob's story. They are my favorite characters in the series.
