Book Review

This was the debut novel for this author and he delivered solid characters who were appropriately developed within a solid plot. He did a good job of pulling the reader into each scene using vivid descriptions and seamless flashbacks.  The content was relevant and the story remained true to its genre. I liked that the characters were relatable on some level. 

I would have liked the pace to have been a bit quicker. Because there were quite a few flashbacks and so much descriptive imagery, the story became wordy, which had the negative side effect of causing lulls in the story. In addition, the flow of certain passages was off due to either grammatical errors or missing verbiage. While this did not occur a great deal, it was enough for me to notice. I think as a new indie author in the erotic fiction genre,  Brown did a good job. I look forward to seeing where his talent will take him.
