Publisher Description
*** EROTIC/CONTEMPORARY ***
"The woman was pure innocence compared to his twisted tastes. She was a sweet vanilla flower in a field of dead roses. And he was the disease that wanted to cripple the flower until its petals wilted."
Stephanie Drake, or Steph as she’s known to her friends, is lost. Somewhere between the end of her childhood, and the day her loser of a boyfriend called it quits on their so-called relationship, she forgot who she was. She lives each day in a perpetual routine, stuck in the confines of her normal, safe life. If she doesn’t take a risk, she won’t get hurt—right?
Then she meets Pete—or Pistol to his friends.
He’s blunt, arrogant, and straight forward about what he wants. And as it turns out, he wants her.
Should she take a walk on the wild side, risk being burnt, and lay her heart on the line? Something in the way he makes her feel tells her ‘yes’, but her friends aren’t so sure this emotionally shut-off man has a place in her life. Why should she listen to them, though? After all, they don’t know a thing about him ...
... do they?

You really, REALLY need to work on your plurals and possessives. "I love your tattoo's" is not right, unless you're talking about something that belongs to said tattoo. What that could be, I have no idea. These are simple mistakes that absolutely litter this work. A prime example is in the second sentence of your first chapter. Also, for readers who don't like to be left hanging at the end of a novel, please note that this story has no actual ending. It just cuts off where another chapter should begin, and this story has no resolution to any of the conflict that is outlined. I was surprised by the many three star ratings but now I understand the cause. I wanted to love these characters but haven't had any actual chance to get a toehold on them together; I don't really know who they are. It's a shame, this is otherwise an intriguing work.
