Fast paced and interesting. My problem with it was simply one I usually have with short stories. Abrupt endings and the way there is no time to develop certain aspects. Also it had that "created conflict" vibe, where there is no real reason they can't be together but the author needs to have a "problem" so she makes the heroine constantly flip flop and change her mind which I can't stand when women do. Plus there was a mild love triangle, and I liked the original guy more than the "bad boy" new entry. I think Dahl builds her books too much on sexual chemistry and great (rather immediate) adventures in the sack and not enough on character compatibility and whether a man is actually "good" for and to you. I think as a whole her female characters accept some utter crap treatment with nary a protest. And for the short story format, there really isn't enough of a page count to tell a proper story if most of it is made up of sex scenes. As usual, Ms. Dahl has delivered in the sexual chemistry department. The only issue I had with this story was that it seemed too short and felt a little rushed. More suffering for Brian in the middle would have made it more complete and satisfying. Eve gave in a little too easily, I think, and it left me feeling unsatisfied with the happy ending. Despite that, it was still a quick, easy read and I enjoyed it. :)

Love this series, but this novella left me wanting a few more chapters. I did like what I read.
