Like Fifty Shades, only with lesbians and without the BDSM. It reads like poorly written fan fiction. Who is going to be thinking about sex while clinging to a tree, having just survived a tsunami, death and destruction all around? No one, that's who. Stupid.
Wish the ending had a bit more to it. What happened next. I was left wondering. The scenes involving the tsunami and its immediate after effects were heartbreaking.
3 stars. The beginning with the tsunami was intense but Hayden and Emily were way too horny for the danger they were in. It was ridiculous. The book actually got better after they were rescued. Emily was annoying as hell. I understood her stance on the military but she was so judgmental of Hayden. I never grew to like her. Hayden on the other hand I did like. She was a lot more nuanced of a character and I do love a woman in a uniform. The romance was pretty good. They had good chemistry together and I liked the ups and downs they went through. The ending felt abrupt but other than that this wasn't a bad read. Not anything memorable but it was fun for what it was.
This was an intense story! The devastation from the tsunami was so intense and the way the two characters dealt with their survival and with their attraction was very well done. A great love story. Well done!
