In Graywolf's Hands (The Bachelors Of Blair Memorial) (Silhouette Intimate Moments, 1155)

Rating:
Summary: Fast read...First Ferrarella for me
Review: In Graywolf's Hands is a fast read. I'm a romantic and I love reading short romance stories. So I picked the book up while shopping the other day. I read it last night. I found the characters to be pretty much the usual, he's a doctor, she's an FBI agent. But you have to allow for the fact that these people are the people who make interesting reading. I enjoyed the jabbing and wit displayed in the the author's selected dialogue for her two main characters. I think dialogue is a very important part of getting the story across. In writing a quick read book, it's a must. The story moved along at a nice flow, keeping me interested and wondering what next? So why didn't I give it a higher rating? I think it's because Graywolf and Special Agent Wakefield jumped into the sex scene too soon. Let's face it, only a couple of days had passed, if that, and here they were; having drinks, going to his apartment and having wild sex on the floor. Too quick, I think. Aside from that, I did like the story, but found several flaws that a good editor would have picked up immediately. Perhaps this took my attention too. Just one mistaken word can change the structure of a whole sentence, like chance or change, and once I read it and start thinking about the word, then I lose track. Otherwise, I'll have to admit I enjoyed Ferrarella's book. I'll read some more of her work when I run across it again.
