byrdy 's review for:

Friction by Sandra Brown
3.0
emotional mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Maybe I've read too many Sandra Brown books in quick succession or maybe I prefer her earlier books, but this one did not hit for me. The beginning showed promise but then quickly devolved into similar patterns: the alpha hero that just can't help himself, a relationship built on not much more than attraction, one-note villains, and on it goes. Her books usually have some kind of twist which I really appreciate, I just am looking for a bit more development when it comes to the characters. I think.
