Resist by Lilly Avalon
3 stars
This is Mariana's reviews: western movie edition.
The Good:
Devlin is an attractive bastard, supposedly including a luscious ass in the package... Plus other attributes...
Also, he's not described as a womanizer. At last, a romance book in which the guy isn't an asshole who miraculously finds his redemption in an oh-so-different woman!
The Bad:
Everything happened too fast. Yes, I am aware that this is a novella, but still, a little more context and build-up wouldn't hurt. I mean, Allegra doesn't know a single thing about Devlin, except that he's her boss's nephew.
The Ugly:
Are you kidding me with that ending?
I get that this book is part of a series, but having the main couple go at it like rabbits for hours and then having Allegra dismiss it all like that is NOT acceptable.
So there you have it. Unexceptional, but enjoyable novella about a man and woman who surrendered to the throes of passion. (Did I just write that? Geez, what a cheesy line)
