The Marked One #2
Secrets Revealed
A new life, new beginning, but it isn’t the kind of life Jerry had envisaged…
Part Two of The Marked One series. Upon arrival in France with his new man, Zeb, Jerry encounters the bizarre villagers in Castle Karbidon and wonders if he’s stumbled into Narnia. When he agrees to attending a party, nothing prepares him for what he is about to endure. The ballroom morphs into a forest glade, and a frightening guest arrives. Dark forces are at work, and Jerry is left in the glade with Lord Karbidon, who has ulterior motives and a nasty plan up his sleeve.

I loved exploring Jerry's feelings upon arriving in a new, strange land when writing this one.

I don't know what made me pick up this book. Well, booklet. I do know what made me put it down again.
Sarah's writing is actually quite good. It's what she does with it that disagrees with me. There's no hook, nothing to pull you in plot-wise, no mystery or intriguing questions for way too long (and in a 43-page book, even 3 pages is way too long).
Another issue was the changing POVs. I don't mind a good limited third-person with changing POVs, but switching from a sloppy limited third to a first-person POV with no explanation or obvious reason--that was jarring.
There was also something blunt and blasé in the erotica that didn't work for me.
I don't know, maybe I wasn't in the right mood for reading this novella, but I'm also not feeling like giving it a second chance.

3.5 stars on this one.
What a way to end a book. I will say things are beginning to sizzle with action. The plot thickens in this story, still a little strange like the first and be prepared on how the story just between first person and third. Strange combo, but it seems to work.

Good God this second part in "The marked One" doesn't have a meaning. For starters there is no point in this story. And the way it ends, a word that pops in my mind is idiocy!
