Sudden Breakaway-by Jessica Subject
Sudden
Breakaway is a 1Night Stand romantic short. It is about a woman named Paige
Brown who is a headhunter for a top secret space agency that deals with the
relationship between the aliens on other planets and Earth. When Paige signed
her lifetime contract with her husband she thought she would always have his
support, but when an accident happens that leaves him stranded on another planet
he bails on her by hooking up with one of the aliens on that planet and serves
her with divorce papers. Now she's on her own and doesn't really have the heart
to continue pulling people into the organization, and of course it doesn't help
that the last several recruiting missions have been a complete bust. Well not
completely a bust as the last man she was sent to recruit, Jared, has given her
plenty to fantasize over. But considering the fact that he has shut down all
effort to recruit him; she will probably never see him again, and thus can't get
an outlet for the overwhelming lust that he has thrown her into. Inspiration
hits when she contacts Madam Eve of the 1Night Stand agency to set up one night
of no strings attached sex.
The
story started out really strong and I was digging the characters, but interest
waned pretty quickly when the sex scene was over in pretty much one paragraph
and then the author decided to focus more on the happily ever after rather than
the heat of a the 1Night Stand philosophy. It may have flowed a little better
for me if she had put what happened after the date night scene before the date
night and ended it with the bang... : ) so to speak. It was still a decent read
though, and would be good for those that don't care for intense erotic scenes in
their books. Overall I would rate it a 3.5
Thank you for taking the time to read and review Sudden Breakaway.
