bitchie 's review for:
Just Drive
by L.A. Witt
Ok, this was a decent read for me, but I wasn't blown away. It felt awfully similar to her other Navy series- Navy guy hooks up with someone, finds out there's a reason they shouldn't be together, they resolve to stop seeing each other, keep seeing each other anyway, and so on and so on. Even the bit at the end with Sean's dad felt familiar, like I'd seen it, or something really close, before in one of this author's stories. Yep, [b:General Misconduct|21840255|General Misconduct (Conduct Unbecoming, #2)|L.A. Witt|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1396478929s/21840255.jpg|41107459], only the roles were slightly reversed, with the CO being the young guy's dad, rather than his boss, as it was in this book.
I did like both characters a lot. One of my issues though, is that we're shown quite a lot of sex, but not a lot of getting to know each other. As such, I didn't get to know them, either, especially Sean. 300 pages, and I still have no idea how old he was, other than over 21 but under 25(maybe?), what he was studying in school, or even why he was still in school, considering he was at least over 21. Nothing was mentioned about grad school, and even him studying was only mentioned in an offhand way, giving no indication to what he was working towards.
There was also a LOT of repetition for me. Lots of "oh my god, I loved kissing him", and "we can't do this, we shouldn't do this, we won't do this again, aw hell, who are we kidding, let's meet up", and it just pulled me out of things. I wish the author had focused more on getting to know the characters, and less on kissing, sex, and the push and pull.
I've always been a fan of LA Witt, and I'll probably read the next book in the series, I just really hope it offers me something different next time.
