Hot damn, these are just getting better! Review to come...
**FULL REVIEW**
“My heart is in fact racing, and like the masochistic degenerate I feel, my panties are drenched. Does he want to hurt me? Am I an unhealthy obsession for a crazed, still-lives-with-his-mother lunatic, or a sexy, shy, and obviously linguistically advanced professional?”
Everyone loves a romantic letter…the jury is still out on the anonymous part. Amelia is the not only the object of a secret admirer’s affection, but also his sometimes crude, sometimes romantic gestures in her office mailbox. Not knowing how to necessarily handle things, she responds…over and over again, becoming more enraged and aroused with each message sent and received.
Problem is, when does one draw the line between romantic and just plain creepy? And if the lines are blurred, how can one tell when it’s no longer safe to continue?
“I lower the book, contemplating the meaning. My Phantom is not just some random deviant pervert, but an open-minded, albeit somewhat twisted, intellectual. He wants to show me that which I haven’t seen, what I don’t know. All the splendor of what it could be.”
Mmhmmm…
So, there you go. Lust always wins out over safety…and what a lusty ride this book is. I was intrigued once again from the very first page and have found that the more I read, even if uncomfortable at times because of the obvious creeper, I had to know what would happen next. It was perfect…all of it. I loved the witty banter put to paper, the chance meetings and trysts, the recalling of other characters (that is always a favorite of mine), just all of it. Again, I was able to be surprised with the ending and that is what sets this book apart from other novellas. It’s a complete story (too short of course because all of the best ones are) with a great little twist!
So, enjoy Packaged. It’s a delivery you really don’t want to miss out on!
