J. Kenner’s
RELEASE ME, the first in her erotic romance series, is the introduction of the
series’ main characters, Damien Stark and Nikki Fairchild. Damien has followed and helped Nikki ever
since meeting her briefly when she took part in beauty pageants. Though she only spent a few scant moments
with Damien way back when, Nikki has been unable to stop thinking about
him. When they meet again by chance
(supposedly), the attraction between them sizzles and though she fights it,
what billionaire businessman Damien Stark wants, he gets, if they can both get
past the secrets from their pasts.
This reader
thoroughly enjoyed RELEASE ME and looks forward to reading the next book in
this spicy erotic series. That said
there were many similarities to both the popular Fifty Shades of Grey books and the Crossfire trilogy. All three
series are about an everyday woman with issues meeting an incredibly rich, but
tortured alpha male who refuses to take no for an answer. But so what?
The shell of the stories may be similar, but the intricacies of the story
are uniquely its own.
J. Kenner’s
writing style is sensual and easy to follow.
Her descriptive passages evoke very real emotion in her readers. The careful forward and back baby steps the
characters take along the road to love, and their forays into light BDSM were
fun and highly charged. Their weaknesses
are just as evident as their strengths and together the characters are stronger
than when they are apart. RELEASE ME set
up the other books in this series nicely, revealing just enough to satisfy
readers while sparking interest in the next book at the same time.
Fans of
light erotica and strong characters are bound to enjoy J. Kenner’s RELEASE ME. Good writing, good storyline, great
characters. What more can you ask for?
