When I read the words *the elephant in the room*, I realised that is exactly my thoughts while reading Antanasia. While this story captured and held my attention, real-life was crowding my thoughts. The main character is a police officer, who bends the rules because of 'circumstances'. At this particular time, I find it a little hard to accept... tolerate... ignore a law enforcement officer, taking decisions into their own hands.
As I said, the story did capture my attention and I really enjoyed the romance that developed between Cat and Rafe. It was amusing to see them fight their instincts and deny themselves what they really wanted. Both Cat and Rafe are stubborn, confident, and extremely bossy, so it was interesting to see who would win each battle. Trust became the most important thing that needed to be established and once the trust developed, their relationship grew.
In true Sarah Curtis style, we have an instant attraction that turned very quickly into love. While I do scoff a little, I can't help but think, it would be nice to believe it could happen and turn into a happy ever after. This author again brought her a*A* game... that is A for Alpha... game, to the party. Rafe is sexy, capable, and bossy, just the way I like my heroes. What did surprise me was that it was a slow burn, so slow that I thought for about 2.5 seconds that it was going to be clean. (THE HORROR!)
