review 1: To Know Her by Sarah Burke was a pretty good. It was a short novella about sixty five pages. It took me no time at all to read it. I felt that it had some great potential at being a full novel. I would of liked to see more from these characters because it was a very well written book. Also I was left feeling like I wanted to know more about this couple before the beginning of the book. I was really starting to get addicted to this novella and then it ended. What I read was pretty good so I guess what I'm trying to say is I wish it was longer.The book starts off with Sara stranded on the side of the road not being able to remember who she is. Then a man in a porsche named Derek pulls over to help. He seems to know her but hasn't let her know that. He brings her to... more his house which is a pretty nice pad. She feels strangely comfortable with Derek and his home. They embark on a steamy union and she then realizes that Derek is the one in control. When her memory returns will she run for the hills? Or stay with a man that has her begging for more?I liked the mystery to this book. Derek was the perfect dominant to Sara's submissive. He holds the cards and it truly is up to him if he want change in the relationship they have been having. Sara was like a bird with a broken wing missing her memory but having feelings for this man must of been something. I could never imagine what that would be like. She seemed to already be addicted to him before and after she lost her memory. If you are looking for a quick read something you can read in on sitting that is romantic, suspenseful, and intense then you should definitely read this one.
review 2: For a debut work, I thought Renee Burke did a fantastic job with To Know Her. I got this as a Kindle freebie and as with freebies, they’re either a hit or miss for me. To Know Her was hands down a hit for me.The story opens with Sara hitchhiking on the side of the road at night with no form of memory whatsoever. She doesn’t recall how she ended up there; she doesn’t even know her own name. Luckily, Sara is saved by Derek who takes her to his home to care for her. Being cared by Derek and being in his home gives her a sense of comfort and familiarity, yet Derek is nothing but a mere stranger to her. While reading, I had a knowing sense of what was going on, yet I didn’t and I believe that’s what made this read so interesting and a page-turner. There was a little pinch of suspense/mystery laced into the story that had me questioning a few things and curious to find out what happened to Sara and who was Derek, this man who conveniently appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the night to rescue Sara.To answer the questions posed in my head, I eagerly read on to uncover the whole truth and I have to admit, it was quite surprising, but pretty brilliant. I really liked the little twist at the end and how the story wasn’t so predictable where I knew exactly what happened.Overall, I am impressed. To Know Her was more than I expected and I am glad I took a chance on this little gem. This novella packed in a whole lot; I got a whole story out of 17,000 words (69 pages) and was not in the least disappointed. Sara and Derek’s story was sensually erotic, romantic, emotional, and thoroughly satisfying.I highly recommend To Know Her for fans who like romance with a not-so-typical plot, a sexy & dominant hero and love scenes that not only make your heart race, but your toes curl. But, seriously those love scenes were fog-up-your-ereader-and-set-off-your-fire-alarm-hot! ;)Simply put, I highly enjoyed To Know Her and am excitingly looking forward to Renee Burke’s next story. less
