This author is genuinely one of my favorites. First, she is a complete sweetheart of a person, second; she is an incredibility good writer. Pretty much every book of hers I have read so far I've loved, and this book was no different. This was a fantastic read.
So the deets...this was a very well-written book. It was fairly well paced. It never bored me nor did I ever feel the need to skim. However, it was also SUPER SLOW BURN in the sex department.
There was an interesting cast of secondary characters. My favorite being Chandler. I kind of hope we see him in a book of his own at some point. I also want to know what happened between John and Sadie (girl..how could you leave me hanging liked that??!! lol) Both the main characters were very likable. Cas was a sexy alpha. Didn't appear to be a manwhore. He was also sweet and patient with the heroine. Alta (Lady) was a strong heroine. Not a virgin (although she has been celibate for ten years). The on page chemistry between our main characters was fantastic. Last, and this is where the book lost a bit of star points. Four months into the future isn't an epilogue to “ME” We are left with what I would call a happy for now. I wanted a further into the future look at this couple. Marriage...babies...all that jazz. Still, again, that was just a minor niggle.
So yea, not much left to say about this one. I enjoyed it a lot. I recommend it a lot. It gets two thumbs up from yours truly.
