The Fog

~Review first appeared on The Bent Bookworm!~The Fog is the 4th in the Berry Springs series by Amanda McKinney, and can be read as a standalone. I flew through this little novella (at 225 pages it makes for a quick afternoon or before bed read) and am considering picking up the other three at some point!Things I Loved- Gwyneth is described as having sexy BROWN eyes. Hell yes, let's have some love for a shade that isn't blue!- Gwyneth is also scientist and a damn good one. Love that she has a career and goals and is doing whatever it takes to reach them. Wouldn't mind reading more about her background, and Wes's for that matter!- Believable vendetta against Wes. I was kind of worried about this being something silly, but it wasn't.- Atmospheric – yes please. I happened to read this on a rainy day, which was just PERFECT for the last part of the book...made it seem very real. Remind me to never check into a hotel during a storm. Yikes.Small Complaints- Predictable – well, it's romantic suspense. If you didn't end up with what you were expecting you'd be disappointed, yes? Still, there were a couple parts that – as far as the forensics – made me roll my eyes because I thought the “big discovery” was SO obvious.- I thought the insta-attraction was a little much, as well as just HOW FAST they progressed...but again...how else are you going to bring everything to a conclusion in such a short book?- Wes was a little over the top dominant in some ways. It was annoying. At least our girl Gwyneth was there to straighten his ass out. 😉3.5/5 stars. This is an enjoyable, fast read if you want a little romantic action and a little suspense!2.5/5 flames. There's attraction and action, and Wes is great and all, (and I did LOVE that while he is very attracted to Gwyneth, she's not described as having a supermodel body), but it just didn't quite do it for me. They're a cute couple but I guess I wanted MORE of them, more depth!Blog Twitter Bloglovin Instagram Google+
