review 1: I have really struggled in reading this, but just didn't want to give up. In retrospect, I realised I should have done as I never felt empathy with the characters. Something was just lacking for me. Despite the horror of Mia's experience, I still failed to have either sympathy or empathy and Jeff Channing was indecipherable to me. I just didn't get his character at all. Of course there was lovely descriptive prose from the author as usual, but the overall thing just didn't work for me. Would not recommend as a first novel by the author. Try some of her earlier works.
review 2: This is the last Erica James book that I will read. The titles promise much - pure escapism for me at least but they inevitably leave me feeling disappointed and uneasy. This one was no e... morexception. Something must be awry with the book if the reader not only feels sorry for the 'villain' - in this story Jeff - but also begins to dislike the supposed heroine - Mia. The book invites you to judge, it wants you to judge Jeff and find him wanting and indeed he is. However, this fact does not make me want to condone Mia's behaviour which I thought was morally pretty poor, at times sanctimonious and at others judgmental, deceitful and mean. less
