Search - Flirt

“Flirt� is the first novel I’ve read by Ms. Carmen Green. And what can I say, it wasn’t the worst I’ve ever read, but it wasn’t all that great. Simply stated it was just lacking something! Although the storyline had potential, I just didn’t get caught up in her writing style. And I don't think she provides the reader with a very plausible explanation regarding Sydney's mom; why she disappeared, why she stayed away, and the whole sex shop inheritance-thing, I felt like I was left hanging. IMO, the dialogue had some “weird� transitions that came off awkward, forced, and at times just seemed totally unnecessary. A few times I found myself re-reading previous paragraphs to make sure I wasn’t missing something. I also found the main characters personalities to be a little BLAND and NOT all that MEMORABLE. And the chemistry between Drew and Sydney throughout was dull and unimpressive. Apparently Sydney made a MAJOR transformation within this novel from being a “mousy� bookkeeper to a confident, sexy and uninhibited “wild cat� in the bedroom and out, yet the author doesn’t provide enough detail as to how or when this transformation came about. ALL of a SUDDEN she just starts taking over, taking charge and Drew is more attracted to her despite their on-going “war�. The story had some funny moments, and a little mystery, but I just didn't get swept away, like I had hoped. Perhaps, I just didn’t get it because I came in on an already running series (The Crawford Series). So, that being said, I still have two more books by Ms. Green at home, so, I will definitely give her work another read. But this was just an OKAY read for me.
