Emma Holly is a great writer. This story was hard for me to take because the heroine was such a B. Still the character development and relationships were unique and interesting. Men loving a bad seed because she is irresistable sexually is just not my kind of story I guess. 3 stars.
This was an interesting diversion for Ms. Holly; I don't know if I like this book or not. Yes, there is plenty of sex, graphically written and very explicit, as we have come to expect from this author. However, she does forget to fill us in on a point or two - ie. why would this filthy rich, successful Japanese-American businessman become so obsessed with this flakey, self-destructive heroine? She is not a very likable character. (I suppose we should be sympathetic towards her because of her traumatic childhood.)She attempts to self-destruct, and we watch in fascination, like watching a train wreck, but fate steps in and hands her a second chance. Hmmmm. Verrrrry interesting.
