I have been slowly working my way through Jenika's back list. I started out with this series in parallel to her Virgin Auction series. To date I have loved more of her 'taboo' books. I feel like the heart in them in just pure. It is all those forbidden loves you hear about all the time and people are so judgey about. Yet they all work out in Jenika's world.I found this book as a whole to be my favorite. It is not more sexy than Lucie's book, however, I think the full circle themes in this book resonated more with me as a reader. I attached myself a lot more to Mona as a lead female. I felt like she was smart, strong, and her vulnerable moments were written so real that they made me want to cry for her. My impulse to save her and smack Issac was fierce. Only because his rational that Holly would make a better partner for him was literally the most male thing for him to do.The sex scenes were not as dominant for me in this book therefore I was able to connect with everyone and their dramas a lot better. I wasn't bored, and I read this in a few hours I believe.Great installment and it just proves that taboo erotica can be written classy and doesn't deserve any sort of 'ban' on it when written as beautifully as Jenika has.
