I really liked Wicked Burn.<br /><br />This one - maybe a C/C+. <br /><br />One thing that really bothered me was that the heroine's name is Genevieve Bujold. (she doesn't go by her husband's name of Sauren). <br /><br />Of course, Genevieve Bujold is a very famous French actress and, for me, it was like the hero was called Brad Pitt, or Hugh Jackman. It threw me out of the story quite a bit. <br /><br />I had thought that the story would be more of a happy marriage with a threesome one night, then the heroine's husband dies and the "third" hooks up with her later. The marriage wasn't happy and that made it quite a different book. I guess if I hadn't had that preconception going in, I might have enjoyed it more.<br /><br />Also, it kind of squicked me out that Genny fell into bed so quickly with someone who'd had his d**k down some other woman's throat the night before.<br /><br />And, I HATED that Sean called Genny "girl" and she occasionally called him "boy". It hit some button I'm not sure I knew I had.<br /><br />I'm still planning on reading other Beth Kery books but this one didn't work for me so well.Kaetrinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16936055488367251592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201492111840825361.post-79164837315306746912010-03-08T11:33:31.516-08:002010-03-08T11:33:31.516-08:00I reviewed this book a while ago, and it cemented ...I reviewed this book a while ago, and it cemented my fangirl-y attitude toward Beth Kery. She's amazing, how her characters are so whole, how the romance never suffers, and how the sex--damn. ;p<br /><br />Great review!Sashahttp://silverfysh.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201492111840825361.post-78575107401474226332010-03-08T06:34:33.001-08:002010-03-08T06:34:33.001-08:00I enjoyed your book review of <b><i>"RELEASE&...I enjoyed your book review of <b><i>"RELEASE"</i></b> by Beth Kery very much. It sounds like an exciting book and now I'm going to have to add it to my <i>"wish list"</i>. (Thanks a lot, Kati--it'll be YOUR fault if I go broke! LOL!)<br /><br />Seriously, <b><i>"RELEASE"</i></b> by Beth Kery sounds like the kind of book that's right up my alley and thanks to you, I know whether it will be worth reading or not.<br /><br />Great job!<br />~Cynde<br /><a href="http://cyndes-got-the-write-stuff.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Cynde's Got The Write Stuff</a>Cynde L.

Beth writes a strong enough story that the suspense element really isn't necessary. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to her next book.Stacy~http://www.blogger.com/profile/14919278697757441246noreply@blogger.com
