Reviews

[Gary Anderson · Rating 5 out of 5]

This novelette is another look into the mind of a female author. Caroline is wonderful at giving you a picture of her story. Lust is a story that could make you afraid of internet relationships. And perhaps it is a warning to women that men lie. Well, not all of us and not all the time!!

Lust will make you worry if you ever sign up for online dating.
It is not just that dharmeny and nomatch hijack your credit card and will not let you go- sometimes that perfect looking date is out for your soul.

I could not get past the second chapter. It is just so poorly written. Wish I had not wasted the 99 cents. I deleted it from my nook so I'd never have to see it again. just awful.
