Sinful by Sharon PageMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
It was a good novella, but had the potential to become an even better novel.
The fact is, the story was too short and there wasn't enough time to relate pr get to know the characters.
I have always enjoyed Miss Page's books. her character's are well-built and have potential. This was a very quick read and I finished this in like 2 hours.
I like books I can connect with, laugh and cry with. But, this unfortunately was not one of those.
The plot itself was very good. But was rushed. The best thing I have always liked about Miss Page is that, her secondary characters are almost as good as her primary ones. But this book hardly shed some light to them.
Sally and Lyan have a kid(Rose). Wouldn't you expect her to atleast to make some appearance in the book? Nope. Rose is completely out of the story. She was given even less importance than a secondary character. I expected Cavell to be more of a problem and Nick Swann just popped out of nowhere.
Lyan was just too forgiving for having the reputation of being an intimidating Bow Street Runner (something like a cop).
I just wanted more.
In my humble opinion this should have been made into a novell.
