A Darker Crimson

This is an action novel with sexual tension everywhere. It was an excellent read despite or maybe because of the ever present sexual activities and constant flirting with paranormal creatures. I would be very careful when recommending this book.

I've read other books by Carolyn Jewel, and I've been eying these Crimson City books for some time. So I was optimistic about this particular novel. I have to admit, though, that I just couldn't get into it. I didn't really connect with the characters, and my attention didn't want to stay with what I was reading. Which is unfortunate because there is some good writing here -- creative and colorful with a nice edge to it. I plan to give this one another go someday and may up my rating. For the meantime, though, let's say "like it, don't love it" and call it good.
