Disappointingly flat stories – First one Okay; Second one Irritating – couldn’t skim it fast enough trying to find the plot The first of these two short stories – 140 – was a nice read not on par with her other novels. The second one – 927 – was a huge disappointment. So much potential with the characters and their story – so much lost opportunity with the other Species from her past. The story lacks a plot, the intensity, the suspenseful mystery & action of the earlier novels. Instead its a cookie-cutter psuedo love story with a lot of angst that depends on the back story. I disliked her name from the start [Candi:…
WOW!! WONDERFUL!! We can always count on Laurann Dohner to deliver a captivating story. This time we get two for the price of one. Although each story is shorter, they were no less, romantic, erotic and full of loving characters. The stories movie along very fast. Each New Species 140 now named Mourn and 927 named Hero who we meet in previous books find there own love, happiness and redemption.Â
Great, per usual. Kind of disappointed though. Let me start off by saying that this author is one of my all time favorites. Since Fury, I’ve followed her and worshipped the paper she writes on. 🙂 I’ve adored every book, however, this one was somewhat disappointing. I DO love that she gave us a “two-for”. This is a new concept for her and I very much enjoyed it. The bad is that there was no action! Every other story has followed a sort of formula, new species is rescued, meets human woman, some type of difference/misunderstanding…
