Craving Her Enemy's Touch

Briar's Reviews

Craving Her Enemy's Toucb by Rachael Thomas was a cute, quick read that definitely fit the Harlequin Passion series. The small novel followed Charlotte Warrington after her brother is killed, and she wants to uncover the secret about his death. She goes to the racing circuit expedition and is immediately drawn towards Sandro Roselli, the man her brother used to call a friend. 

The book follows the intense relationship that goes on between Charlotte and Sandro, and it includes a lot of R rated passionate scenes that can heat up the pages pretty quickly. I found that the book moved at just the right speed that I did not get bored with the relationship, but it didn't move to fast either. Rachael Thomas did a good job pacing this novel out.

The novel doesn't have many faults, other than I felt it ended rather abruptly. I would have preferred a drawn out ending explaining more of what happened, but that is more of a preference than a problem. It seemed very short, but it is a Harlequin novel, and they are not often the longest pieces of fiction. 

Overall, it was a good, quick read but it wasn't the most interesting novel in the world. The plot is often used in many different romances, but the setting was unique. I would definitely recommend this novel to readers who like passionate romance, but it wouldn't be the first book I recommend to just any reader.

3 out of 5 stars, due to the lack of originality in the plot. Still a cute little novel though! I liked it!

I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads.
