Story Rating: 2 out of 5
Review:
This is a novella, and the 1st book in a
series which I was unprepared for as it not mentioned anywhere, nowhere in the
synopsis. For readers I think it is important that authors let readers know
this is the first book in a series, otherwise you will end up like I did at the
end of this novella looking at the last sentence infuriated and wondering what
the hell just happened. Dropped like a rock, cliff hangers… not my favorite
type of ending.
However, that being said…
Moving
In
had an interesting premise. A deeply sensitive male character and an
interesting female protagonist whose character well runs much deeper than you
would think. The reader will enjoy the age switch-out with the male character
taking on the younger role and the female taking on the older character role.
Although, Dean does come off much older than twenty.
Some of the greatest lines in the read come from
Angie the best friend, which is always unfortunate when a side-character comes
in and over-whelms the main-characters.
Singh tries to build sexual tension between Dean and Lace, unfortunately
it falls short. As to Lace’s virginity by the end of the novella the reader is
beat to death with Lace’s virginity and the reader is sick of hearing about it.
There seems to be blanks in the storyline for both characters where Singh is
trying to build mystery and suspense but for the reader it only irritates.
Overall, Moving
In had great potential but feel short for me. The premise and the writing
were well done. Singh has the beginning of something very interesting, however,
with the cliff hanger ending and the blanks in the story not sure if it is
something a reader will look for the next in the series.
