Shark's Edge by Angel PayneMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
First, we'd like to thank Waterhouse Press for providing a copy of this book via Net Galley.
This was the first time we'd read a book by these authors. Over the years we'd seen the names Payne & Blue on some top blogs, so of course we wanted to request this title. However, regardless of these authors' great reputations, this book just didn't work for us.
One of the issues we had was with the pacing of the story. This was probably one of the slowest books we'd ever read. At 26 percent into the story, we just couldn't take it anymore, so we skipped over to the 55 percent mark. But even with all the missed pages, we discovered that we didn't miss anything. Actually, the only thing that did happen was a LOT of inner monologue. The main characters constantly hated/liked/lusted after each other.
Enough already! Get on with it. :(
Also the heroine, a caterer, was ultra boring. Shark was an nonredeemable anus.
The acknowledgements in the back matter of the book mentioned the involvement of several big name authors who were involved in the crafting of this story. But sadly, the popular list of names just wasn't enough to keep us interested in the other installments.
OUR RATING:
2 Stars

We weren't up all night reading this one.
