Okay
first off I want to make a point of mentioning that I haven’t read this
author’s books in years as it felt like she was just taking same type of
characters and plots and just dumping them in another story with different
names, etc. I got bored so I decided after several years of not reading her
books to see if this one can keep my attention. All I can say is with me trying
to give it a chance, VENDETTA ROAD, just made me cringe and I could not
finish this at all. Too much sex, not enough plot and characters that had me
cringing in horror as they moved along the pages of the story. With each page I
turned, I really wanted to just toss the book aside and scrub myself off in the
shower. I felt like the characters were just there to move along the sex scenes
and not the storyline at all. Plus, the graphicness of the abuse and child sex
trafficking portion of the plot left me cold and ready to scramble under the
covers to hide. I wasn’t sure what the author was trying to convey with that,
but it turned me off on more than one occasion as I stumbled my way through VENDETTA
ROAD.

Feehan is a talented author and I used to enjoy her books but lately it has
felt like she is writing just for form and to see how much sex she can pack
into a book plus she missed the boat in regards to fleshing out the con artist
storyline that interested me far more than the sex scenes. This was not a
comfortable read whatsoever and I felt like I had to stop reading midway just
to find a light, happy book to enjoy after trying this one. I am sure others
may disagree with me, but VENDETTA ROAD is dark, borders on porn and has
no plot at all. I enjoy sex in books as much as the next one but with pages
upon pages of it, in graphic detail, unfortunately turned me off and I won’t
pick this one up again to finish it. It just did not keep my interest and with
characters as flat as these, I am not bothering trying any other by this author
unfortunately. It’s a shame because this book had promise but the author just
wasted it.
