2.5 Hesitant StarsNow, I may be way off of the mark sere but I'm going to voice my opinion and hope I don't hurt feeling but possibly help this author out a bit. I hope.I was immediately pulled into the story in the first couple of pages. The storyline where a soldier is receiving anonymous, steamy love letter from someone immediately made me want to devour this novella. What happened? The author threw in a second conflict/storyline or twist or whatever the hell you want to call it. I don't particularly think it was needed and it damn sure wasn't needed when the execution falls flat/untrue. I completely lost focus on the original storyline. The beginning was good but it could have been enhanced with more turmoil within the MC with being attracted to the suggestive letters from a man. I wasn't sure if he KNEW he was bi or if this was going to be. GFY plot or what. Anyway, that storyline should be all this encompasses along with the struggle within one man being attracted to another. JMHO.After thinking about this, I feel I need to explain a little better. The first storyline was enough to sit down and put the effort in to write an honest story. The author didn't need to throw in a mystery that confused the reader and detracted from the feelings the MC was having as he tries to struggle with the fact that he's attracted to a man. The letters could have been played up more and the turmoil within the MC a perfect focus for the story. JMHO
