COURTNEY MILAN, WHAT DO YOU DO TO ME?
Without fail, I find myself wanting to simultaneously sob and speed read through Courtney Milan's books. When people attempt to talk to me, I glare at them and rudely say, "I'm reading."
I get all flustered and hot (surprisingly, not related to the sex scenes, but those are good too and worth getting hot over) because my emotions are always 100% engaged in the story.
Soooo, I read the prequel novella for this series (This Wicked Gift) and was interested to see what happened with Gareth. I wasn't disappointed. (But has Courtney Milan let me down yet? NO.) There's a reason Gareth is so scientifically minded, as the synopsis says, but Jenny's able to see right through him.
And Jenny. Poor Jenny. I like her independent streak. She could have just let Gareth keep her, but that wasn't what she wanted. She had the self-integrity and respect to say, "No. I'm worth more." As we should all do.
Thankfully, I've got book 2, Trial by Desire, checked out from the library. We see a lot of Ned, hero in book 2, in Proof by Seduction, and I'm not very happy with him right now. I'd like to see him redeem himself.
