COVETOUSNESS: by Randi Cooley Wilson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received this ARC from Red Coat Publishing and the author in exchange for an honest review.
That was a lovely treat. Elements of mystery, paranormal and romance all come together for a highly entertaining read.
The characters were quirky, full of life and interesting to follow. The protagonist was a refreshing change from the all-too-well-known special snowflake that needs a fresh start. She was witty, awkward and realistic. I cannot express how refreshing it was to read a story about a young woman, who doesn’t expect a red-carpet reception wherever she goes.
The plot was straight forward with some unexplained mysteries still surrounding the continuing story. It was easy to follow, but never boring.
The writing was great. I was impressed by the author’s style of creating dialogue that flowed so effortlessly and that created a mental picture of the scene unfolding on the page. It was fast-paced, but never filled with unnecessary details or fluff. And the intimate scene added just the right amount of heat, spice and adult excitement.
Overall, this novella was just the right amount of fun, mystery, romance and the otherworldly. A tease that makes the reader want more in just the right way. I would definitely recommend it to anyone, in the mood for a quick, sexy, mystery filled paranormal story.
