Her writing style doesn't excite this reader,

This review is from: Risque (Mass Market Paperback)
As I was reading this book, I kept thinking, surely I'd start enjoying this book as soon as I got into it. Unfortunately, that never happened. There is something very mediocre about this writing style. The words are there. The same words that better authors have used to excite me and make me stay up past my bed time with that "can't put this book down" feeling. That is what I wanted but definitely did not get with this book. When I realized the book wasn't going to get any better, I had to force myself to finish this book. There are so many better romance writers out there now, I am shocked and surprised that the editor of this book did not encourage a better rewrite!This book is like going to a restaurant and ordering a featured dish. The waiter makes your mouth drool by letting you know about all the ingredients that are in the dish and when it's placed it front of you, it has a nice presentation and a mouth watering aroma. However, with your first bite, you realize the disappointment. You can't believe how bland it tastes even though it's got all those spices (sex and sexual overtures)that you usually enjoy. You finish the meal, still not quite satisfied and wishing you had ordered something else.
