Sexy, fast-paced, and addictive. I could not put this spicy novella down. The characters were well-drawn and fully realized—impressive for such a short piece of fiction. I especially enjoyed the overtones of shared vulnerability and emotion between the main character and her love (lust) interest. And who wouldn’t want an honorable lover who vows to eat the ones who have hurt you? Swoon. A wonderful, well-written read with the perfect balance of on-page steam and a propulsive plot to carry the heat.
