Review: A "turgid" 4 star read...(read it, you'll get it).
Rating: 4 out of 5

This little story really has a lot going for it.  It involves two people with hangups who get together and help each other overcome their fears.  I liked the fact that the author was able to convey her apparent belief that there are men out there who are kind, gentle, understanding and loving towards women.  I found that refreshing.  This is a short book and, as such, there wasn't time for great character development, but the author did an admirable job within the confines of the story.  I found myself laughing out loud at some of the dialogue and emotionally wrenched by other scenes.  A romantic story which elicits those types of responses is a good one in my book.  The sexual aspects of the story were very well put together and would appeal to both men and women equally.  This is not your typical "his hands yanked her head back roughly as he took her from behind with brutal abandon" romance.  It is instead a carefully crafted story about how important caring is within the bounds of a budding relationship.  I really liked it and I'll bet you will too.
