An Uncommon Whore
OK, I'm torn on this one. There are issues - of suspension of disbelief, of consistency, of pacing - but...Darn it but I liked the characters. Very much so. And there lies my weakness. Even though it's told first person, which distances us from Griffin, I still found myself drawn in within the first few pages.
Were there points where the sex overrode the plot? Yep. Especially at the beginning. Were there points when I said, now, wait a sec, that's just too convenient? Yep.
But Helios is a resilient, determined cookie. You can't help but like him. And his poor, tortured Griffin is bad to the bone and vulnerable all at once. Yum.
A fun read and ultimately enjoyable despite all the above. I did want them to be happy, did care about them, and that's the most vital part in a romance.
