This story is one helluva ride you won't want to miss. As I approached the last quarter of the story, I felt like I stepped into a Quentin Tarantino film, it was fabulous! There were so many twists and turns to the plot, things that took me by surprise! The writing is crisp, the plot is tight, and I wasn't able to find any holes. This book is more than erotic, there's a brilliant story being told, and it was everything I hoped it would be and more!!? ? Rhonda, from SamsAwesomeness.Blogspot.Com ?I sobbed through this book. I mean chest heaving sobs. Even now I well up thinking about it. I had high expectations for this book. Let me tell you those expectations were exceeded and then some.? ?
