Vulnerable

by Bonita Thompson

In this tale of love and obsession set against a picturesque Seattle backdrop, the lives of four successful thirty-somethings collide in a life-altering moment that transforms loneliness into total destruction.

When Rawn, a schoolteacher, and D’Becca, a supermodel, meet, their electric chemistry leads to a relationship of passion and intimacy that neither anticipates—until Rawn’s seductive friend and colleague Sicily introduces him to emotionally fragile fashion designer Tamara. Sultry, beautiful, and dangerously unstable, Tamara develops a fixation with Rawn that leads to deception and an impulsive act of desperation that irrevocably intertwines four lives. Soon Rawn becomes a person of interest in a murder and the target of a media spectacle. Packed with sexy, page-turning drama, Vulnerable illustrates the complexity of desire and emotion, the weakness in human nature, and the fragility and spontaneity of fate.

First let me say that this one was very hard to get into. I almost gave up. After already half way in I was still unsure where the author was going and not invested in the story. But I trudged through. I did find some satisfaction later on. It definitely was not your "Zane Presents" type of novel, which was misleading and those who like that genre would be disappointed. I read a lot of different types of books and I was still not flowing with this author's style of writing and use of words from page one. But ultimately I was glad that I hung in there and finished. I liked Rawn and Sicily and wanted to know how they would fare at the end. Not a bad effort. (Full disclosure - I skipped over some of the Imani parts of the book because I didn't know how that story line connected in and was impatient for the ending).
