So short but so good...I just loved it ( )

Since this is a novella the review won’t be very long. It is hard to write much about a short story since most of the time I don’t want to give anything away. This is the first time I have read about these characters. That doesn’t mean they haven’t appeared. Ryan Church probably has since he has been the manager of Sanctum for a little while. Ryan is a little slower than most men. He is a great guy he is just clueless through most of the book. He keeps making the same mistake in different ways. I was glad that he finally woke up and found a way to get Jillian Paxon back.

Jillian is a smart and caring woman that needs to take a few lessons in what a good submissive is responsible for in a Dominate/submissive relationship. She is as responsible for these two breaking up as Ryan is. Jill has not had an easy life during the eighteen months that she has been away from Ryan. She is so stubborn that she won’t take any help from those that care about her. It takes her getting shot and a lecture from Ian Taggart for her to see that maybe she should give Ryan another chance.

I loved Ian in this book. He has some of the funniest scenes I have read about him in a long time. I always expected that he was a matchmaker and a nosy, busy body and this book proves it. I loved the scene where he talks to Jillian after she has come home from the hospital. Very funny.

This is a great short story and it reads very quickly. If you are a fan of Lexi Blake then you need to read this story. ( )

I liked this novella, which is set in Blake's Masters and Mercenaries world. Even though it's short, it fills out the characters in an interesting manner.

Worth owning. ( )
