Smashwords book reviews by Croft House

  • Evening Rounds on May 11, 2015

    This is just wonderful, a strongly-written snapshot of an intense moment between a couple. We've all got a story that hurts to relive and telling someone about it can be as traumatic as it is cathartic. The way Adrian distances himself from what happened to him is authentic and I just love how understated it is - "I quietly lost myself in the feel and smell of him" - it doesn't need any more than that.
