Umm... what to say about this book? I really, Really wanted to love it. Thought maybe I'd get Daisy and Aiden with nipple clamps. Yeah, not so much. I've tried and liked some of the Battaglia books, but I couldn't quite wrap my mind around their three week courtship to forever love beginning. Well, this couple had the exact same set up. They meet, fall into bed, he omits just about everything that matters (he isn't the only one though) and she splits. I just finished the book and I am not sure when they fell in love or how since their deepest convo in the past was about the Marquis de Sade. Kitten (Crispin's nickname for the heroine will be used because I don't want to butcher her actual name) was just incredibly silly. Crispin was... exhausting. She asks him why he is so crazy and all I could think was "he isn't crazy, he is self involved". He was definitely obsessed with her and they both had a great deal of lust and money, but I never felt love between then.The twists at the beginning were fun (who has friends that trifling?) and I liked Richard. I can take or leave BDSM, but it didn't overshadow the plot (the sex scenes were lather rinse repeat) so I didn't mind it. It was a decided step up from that hot mess with Diego that I won't even go into and it was a stand alone. Here's hoping for more love in the drama next time!
