Novella
Lonely psychologist, Linda, is a workaholic. She has no
friends so she spends the majority of her time with her patients.
Mature student, Christina pays her way through school by
running a phone sex line. Her working name is Chantel.
When Christina answers her sex line one night, it’s Linda on
the line. She isn’t interested in phone sex, but she has a proposition for
Christina. If Christina accepts, both their lives could change
forever.
A very nicely written short novella, translated from German.
The translation is so well done, I would never have known if I hadn’t been made
aware.
Here are two women from very different backgrounds. Women who
if they’d met under different circumstances may well have never given each other
the time of day.
Both Christina and Linda’s characters are multidimensional and
well formed. There is a lot of detail packed into this short book. A lot of the
actual story is based on the characters actual thoughts. I think this is how so
much has been packed in to such a short book. It’s easier to read the characters
thoughts than to have the story played out between the characters. Having said
that, there is plenty of actual character action. Both Christina and Linda
interact well together and the story is hot and erotic.
I look forward to reading more from Alison Grey
soon.
This sounds like one I might enjoy. Thanks for flagging it up. I don't mind short books if there is some character development involved!
