The two flirt and banter and laugh out loud. As with so many romance novels, the dialogue between the lovers that is supposed to show us the spark between them is usually cringe-inducing. The book could have accommodated maybe two of these scenes, but it felt like there were about 20. When their eyes met and their breath caught, again, I began to groan. It wasn't long before I was fast forwarding through the many boring sex scenes. Then there are seemingly endless scenes of the couple in lengthy and usually pointless dialogue, which contributes neither to plot nor character, or else having sex again and again. The 'twists' in the story are flagged well ahead, so you know what is going to happen from early on. Witt adheres strongly to the cliched tropes of romance novels, which is a pity.
There is very little to the story, really. There is enough here for a short story, but it is padded out. Another 10-20% could have been cut with minor rewrites. About 40% of the content could have been cut directly with no other changes, without damaging the story the at all all. Witt's work very highly, but this book was disappointing. So, if erotica is your thing, you get that in abundance, but if you love romance that deal with character driven emotions you'll be just as happy.
You're giving just enough of a romance tale for Liam and John, dealing with questionable exes, and confusing misunderstandings, and some beautiful tender moments that completely makes up for all the sex.
giggles- wow, what a voice! I've read this story a while ago so I knew I'd love it, but Zach Andrews gave this story that mature, incredibly deeply, unbelievable sex appeal, warmth, calmness, and excitement to Liam and John characters that truly made this story worth 5 stars for me! And that's that's including all the erotica, which was way more than what I enjoy in my romances.
I am head over hills in love with Zach Andrews voice! My god, I'm not into erotica past one or two scenes but this man, this Zach Andrews voice was incredibly sexy -fanning myself with a sigh- I think I actually listened to almost every sexy scene.
