Review:
I have not read any soft porn and I have only read a couple of romances. This seems to jump into the soft porn area to me. That aside, this story is more revelatory than developing. Oh, look, here is another thing that you had no way of knowing, but that is fundamental to the book. I'm OK with surprises (and there are some of those as well), but those are things you could conceivably have known if you thought long and hard about it in the difficult cases. Those are actually a little fun. There are so many things, though, that are kept from the reader at virtually every turn that the reveal becomes tiresome. There is also a batman-esque quality to dilemmas that face darn near everyone and the degree to which the "bad guys" make an effort to hide what doesn't need to be hidden is also pretty ridiculous. Finally, there are a few surprises that are a surprise only because the person to whom the surprise is revealed should surely have known by virtue of details that are simply omitted for the reader. I don't like that. Overall, I did not enjoy the book and won't read the series.
