Being Me by Lisa Renee Jones
4.0
This is an example of the pitfalls of cliffhangers. If you're going to spend 3 or 4 times the price of one book to get a complete story, there's a higher bar to hurdle. The plot and characters must be spectacular to offset the cost, the time, and the frustration of waiting. This second book is okay, not spectacular. And it ends on another cliffy. Fool me once. I won't be continuing this series.
The search for the elusive Rebecca imparts mystery, but it's a plot element that fails to hold interest. You never meet the woman. It's difficult to care what happened to her. What will hold your attention, however, is the beautiful dance between the H/h as they push and tug through their relationship. The writing is polished, the pacing is excellent, and the characters are crafted delicately. The overall experience isn't special or bold enough to cling to memory, but I was never bored or tempted to put the book down.
