I especially liked... | ||
The characterisation was well done. Creed has endured so much that he has learned to lock away his pain and feelings and be emotionless, but now he struggles to break out of that and open his heart to anyone. Eli has also endured a lot, but he has coped by becoming angry and violent. There was enough humour to break up the darker parts, and the quiet times helped the reader to fall in love with the characters and want them to find their happily ever after. There was just enough sexual tension for the overall romance to be believable, although the focus was more on emotion than sex. | ||
I didn't like... | ||
I struggled to accept the sheer amount of abuse that Creed in particular had endured. I don't think it was unrealistic necessarily - the world can be a terrible place - but perhaps there was more than the reader needed..or that Creed needed in order to become who he was in the story. | ||
I recommend this Book because... | ||
A few aspects of the plot were predictable near the end of the story, but I didn't feel that the two main characters were, and on the whole I couldn't predict what how things were going to turn out. I found it hard to put the book down. | ||
Further Comments... | ||
Both of the main characters suffered from abusive childhoods, and there are flashbacks to these. There is also violence and abuse in the current storyline. | ||
