I love Jessica Sorensen's writing, but have noticed that each of her beginning books in a series do end in dramatic cliffhangers. <br /><br />Lindy@ A Bookish EscapeLindy Gomezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08037195934272974300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6160480433903749238.post-84407181450927023782014-03-08T15:02:16.977+11:002014-03-08T15:02:16.977+11:00Glad that it ended up being good even though it st...Glad that it ended up being good even though it started kind of slow. Books with slow starts can be a hit or miss for me though I'm not the most patient, and 50% sounds like a lot until you get into it >,< I do like the sounds of this romance and flirtatious banter is always fun and builds great chemistry, too! I have heard tons of wonderful things about this author so I def. want to give her books a try!Gisellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16953187386418088952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6160480433903749238.post-31677290313287386532014-03-08T12:00:29.539+11:002014-03-08T12:00:29.539+11:00I am behind on this series and maybe that is a goo...I am behind on this series and maybe that is a good thing with the cliffy..LOL I am not eager to read this one at this point but do enjoy this author's writing style.

I do like the idea of a companion novel though. I haven't read any JS before but she always seems to write really long, heavy series, so I haven't had time to try one of her books before now. And cliff-hangers drive me crazy... lol.

I hate it when male characters have random sex, then think poorly about the girl they had it with! Double standard, much? I'll still read this book, though, but it's nice to be forewarned.<br /><br />Happy reading :)<br /><br />Lexxie @ <a href="http://unconventionalbookviews.com" rel="nofollow">(un)Conventional Bookviews</a>Linda @ (un)Conventional Bookwormshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16627780985218960080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6160480433903749238.post-88790691044063912552014-03-07T20:07:02.541+11:002014-03-07T20:07:02.541+11:00I've received a couple of these books for revi...I've received a couple of these books for review but I just don't think they're for me and your review has confirmed that.
