Fun concept, mediocre writing and far, far too much BDSM-style sex for the story to carry pulls the rating down. The characters pull it up, but a two is as much as I can give.
Sex, in a story, is neither wrong nor out of place -- IF it fits in the tale. Here it does not.
Fun story. Good characters. Terrible, terrible formatting in the e-book version :(
Romantic drama and/or comedy is not my style - not normally - but I shall admit to a certain weak spot for author Jae and her world(s).
No spoilers here: the two main characters have depth; the story - while not wholly original - is handled very well, with humour and grace. Any romantic story that can make me laugh is worth the price of admission.
Congratulations, Ms. Jae; very well done indeed. A star off for one or two annoyances with the third tier characters, but otherwise all is well.
A suggestion, tho: set the next in Europe. Just for a change :)
