3.0

This book was fine - but that is perhaps the best thing I can say about it. It commutes a crime almost worse than being bad, it made me feel apathetic. The plot became repetitive and the characters bit thin. I enjoy sex in books as much as the next person, but in this book it didn’t quite illicit heart thumping anticipation but rather mild embarrassment for both author and characters.
