(More customer reviews)You know how you find a new author and love their books and then after that you can't wait to buy their new ones? I wish that I had waited. I have become used to SM's books for their complex characters and all their warts. Does this book have that? Yes. But there was no romance, none, none, none. Yes, I read the synopsis of the book from her web site but I still expected the complex man/woman relationship to be part of this book and I just didn't see much of that at all. I have become used to that in SM's books and for that I was disappointed. I found myself skipping ahead and turning the pages, I was bored. I don't need to read page after page after page of conversation between two people to get the gist of what the conversation was about. To me, it was wasted space. I only finished the book because I thought it might get better, it didn't. Seriously, when she introduced Ellington I knew then what was going to happen to Serenity. I read books to escape. At times, this book was depressing. Maybe it's because personally I lost my mom a year ago, I don't know. I felt the same about the Cliff character. For Violet to have come from the streets, bells should have been going off right and left.
Don't get me wrong here, I don't have to read books that are filled with gratitious sex throughout. I do like to read about characters and their development, I just don't like to read books that are full of it with no romance at all. I missed the man/woman relationship in this book. In the future I will wait and read some reviews before I jump at buying another Mallery book (sigh). I hope this is not a sign. Too many of my "have to read" authors are disappointing me lately.
