JC Daniels is the alter ego of one of my favorite authors, Shiloh Walker. I was lucky enough to receive a copy of Sexy Little Surprises for an honest review.
Lately, I’ve found that novellas just haven’t been cutting it. The author tends to leave entirely too much out, either by rushing the plot or not developing the characters enough. This is most definitely not the case with Sexy Little Surprises. JC Daniels does a fantastic job of showing just how separated the spouses have become even while still living together. They’re now more like strangers passing in the night – roommates or even acquaintances, rather than husband and wife. After suffering a devastating loss a few years before, they’ve drifted apart, and their heartbreak is palpable. I have to admit that there was more than one occasion when I found myself reaching for the Kleenex. Daniels does a fantastic job of giving us just enough to show what happened in their past and why they’ve retreated into themselves, rather than relying on each other for support even while it tears them apart. I wanted to shout at them both to put on their big kid underwear and just TALK TO EACH OTHER.
Overall, it’s a great (quick) read. I give it a 4.5 out of 5 meows.
