Shawnette G. (sweet-sassy) - reviewed on 12/5/2009 + 259 more book reviews

This is the first novel I've read by Francine Craft and it was a little disappointing. Apparently, "The Way You Make Me Feel" is the final book in a series about the Steele family, however, after reading this I'm not sure I want to back-track and read the rest.~~~~~~~~Stevie and Damien instantly become "roommates" and all too "quickly and sweetly" they agree to make life altering decisions, which were a little unbelievable, even for a romance novel. Ms. Craft, does a good job visualizing the concert and nightclub performances in a very realistic way, but the romance and mystery were sorely lacking in the same realism. The dialogue seemed for lack of a better word "corny" and forced, which muddled the storyline and made the characters uninteresting. Surprisingly, the romantic leads are not mutually attracted to each other. Damien must continually strive to focus beyond the physical appearance of Stevie, which makes the few sex scenes luke warm and uninspiring. The significant details of the mystery are held back from the reader making the conclusion lacking and unsatisfying.~~~~~~~This is a quick read for anyone who has some free time and who doesn't have anything better to read.
