The whole time I just wanted him and her to kiss, to release the sexual tension that subtlety built between them. I don’t know what his deal is, but I have to find out. Speaking of Jericho…frankly, he is the reason I am so drawn to the story. She was funny and determined, not to be so easily deterred by the brooding Jericho Barrons. Despite what I’ve heard (and read) of Mac’s vapid tendencies and inner monologue, I found I still enjoyed being inside her head. Or maybe it’s the magnetism of the characters. I think that says something about the story. The ending not only surprised me, but made me want to forget that I wanted to read something else after it-I ended up going straight through to book two. No, it wasn’t a favorite of mine, but it was on the cusp of being something very….special.
I would put the book down and then feel myself reaching for it after only five minutes of it’s absence, despite the fact that I had no clue what was going on. As a story, I did find myself inexplicably drawn to everything that was happening. I think the basic thing I need to address is the likability of the story and the characters. I still don’t quite understand everything I was told, which will come more easily, I’m sure, in the next installments. There was so much going on at all times in this book and we had so much we had to learn and take in. I think this is one of those reviews where less is more.
