I’ll start by saying this book probably wasn’t my cup of tea. It’s not that sex makes me uncomfortable though, I write sex for a living. It’s just how the sex is included in the story. I’ll explain more.This story started off well, the idea was different, something I hadn’t come across before. I liked the characters too, they seemed interesting. However, after sex scene 1 and 2 I stopped reading them, the story had such an awesome beginning I really wanted to see it play out, however I quickly realised that the story was just a few pages surrounding all the sex. I mean I get it, the couple had awesome sex but I like to see sex as a development of the story where in this book, after the second time I really knew the sex was obviously supposed to be the reason for this book and not the story. It was a short read, but if you removed all the sex out of it, you’d only have a story and not a book. You know like the essay sized stories kids write in school. Because of the lack of story, I didn’t feel at all connected to the characters. I read the entire book, skimming the majority of sex after the first two times. I hoped for so much more as I said, the story idea was good, it was lost however in the sea of awesome sex. The story, where it was hidden in the sex, was rushed and lacked detail. I usually remember characters for a few days after I read a book… I don’t even remember what colour hair Roni had… was it even mentioned?Other than during the sex, I have little memory of the characters really feeling much. You’d have thought with life and death moments that the characters would have been sweating, hearts pounding, minds racing… there was none of that. It lacked description that would have allowed me as a reader to feel along with the characters. Even when someone was gunned down in front of their eyes! I would have expected a grotesque moment of blood splatter and stomach’s churning, but even the gun shot wasn’t explained other than “Shot the guy point blank in the face.” And a minor mention of blood and brain matter. At this point, the characters would feel so much and it’s an awesome opportunity to really explain the various feelings running rampage through the body… Sadly, it was an opportunity missed. My heart didn’t race with the characters, I didn’t feel along with them when they were terrified they were going to be next and I didn’t cheer them along when they fled the scene. I was very much disappointed with this book. However, if you want to read lots of sex surrounded by very little story, this one is for you. This book was a complete surprise. When it comes to a novella it is hard to build strong characters, but this author nailed it. This book gave you intense and interesting characters with a story you just can't walk away from. You get pulled into the story and can't wait to see how it ends. The story wrapped up nice with out me feeling like it was rushed. I would highly recommend this book to someone just looking for a fun short read.
