rosamarie 's review for:
Shine Not Burn
by Elle Casey
3.5 STARS
In the end this book was a bit hit and miss for me. I whizzed through the first half barely able to put it down and fanning my face at those raunchy love scenes. And then the novel got all bogged down with Andie's annoying internal toing and froing about what man she wanted to be with when it was blatantly obvious how the book was going to end. The backstory about her troubled upbringing didn't feel well developed either given the significance it was supposed to have played in the previous ten years of her life. I started longing for some action and violence and possibly a vampire or zombie so that my attention wouldn't start wavering. But i guess this book did deliver as a quick, light, chick-lit read with a warm fuzzy finale.
