Hellion by Lisa Henry
1.0
Lisa Henry is hit or miss for me. Sorry, but this novella was a huge miss.
There was absolutely no progression from enemies to lovers to make the romance believable for me. I didn't interpret a sexual buildup or any sexual tension between the MCs. What I felt was Sir Oliver's embarrassment and frustration with Simon causing him to criticize and humiliate the boy. And when the sex came about with the spanking at 90% mark, I didn't see where Simon's passion exploded from. Ms. Henry definitely described Sir Oliver's sexual interest as almost being clinical or even bored, even during the spanking. Sorry, but didn't buy into them becoming lovers.
