Not only were the main characters enrapturing, the side characters are amazing to the point where I would read a separate book for each of them, solely about them. The sex was intriguing, not bad but not my thing. I'm also half dead from laughing about adding the steamy, erotic sexual encounters with some heavy kink into my review. Yet another well developed and estonishing novel by Hassell. Though this is my first it won't be the last, that's certainly for sure.
