A review by fleurette
Taking the Heat by Sylvia Day

3.0

Usually, I don't do novellas because the story and the characters are mostly undeveloped and I felt unsatisfied after reading. But this was not the case. Even though the story was short it felt surprisingly complete.

Due to the past relationship between Layla and Brian and the fact that they still love each other the story felt like not lacking anything and the emotions between the hero and heroine were right. The characters are nicely constructed as for such a short text, they have personalities and deepness. And I loved how Layla is calling him Bri, I find it sweet. In general, I would call it a sweet story despite the lots of sex they have. I wish it was made into a full-length book.
