Maybe Edit?
Aside from the grammar issues, the book was incredibly difficult for me to read. It seemed like a rough first draft just to get the ideas on paper. The sentence flow was incredibly choppy. Based primarily in LA, it seemed like a lot of common American phrases were misquoted. Almost as if the book were written in another language first and then poorly translated. I was disappointed with how hard it was to read because the story line by itself was intriguing. I wanted to like it, but I had to force myself to finish it.

I'm sleep deprived
I stayed up late to find out what was going to happen! What a feat to explain what I just read! Lol This story has so many moving parts. Ivo only has love for Merry. But everything's a mess. Elaine is nuts and is planning to marry Ivo as a strategic business move, having no idea that Merry and Ivo have a history. A history that is very much still in play. I'm not going to spoil this story by saying anything else. Just read it. You won't be sorry. I took off a star for typos and grammatical errors.

Omg
This was a good book but I could have done with a little less graphic happening in chapter 1 or at least a warning. I truly know what Clara went through and it was triggering. But the rest of the book was phenomenal. Also a little closure on ivo's case would have been nice.

Loved it!
Loved that Merry and Ivo had a happy ending. I had a feeling that things were going to play out the way did. Good read, good smutt. Only thing I'm left wondering is what was happening, if anything, between Clara and Gregory.
