After all I'd heard of Ellora's Cave, I expected better. The characters were ok, but not all that engaging. The plot was flat and had too much contrived. The sex scenes were repetitive and not hot. Would have been better with them mostly cut out or glossed over.
I really enjoyed this book. I found it interesting and, at times, couldn't put it down. Be forewarned... the tears may flow towards the end. The characters were well defined and it is a book that I would recommend.
