However, I can't tell you how many times I wanted to smack Jackie upside the head. lol I'm almost done with book 2 and I do see some improvement in her, but there are still moments I want to tie her to a spanking bench and use my flogger on her. ;) I look forward to book 3 (which I will also be reviewing) and hope you find a home for the rest of the series.A Voracious Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11428270614169967014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5341985034171506629.post-2873490840768446262013-03-05T11:52:21.469-05:002013-03-05T11:52:21.469-05:00Oooh I have this book on my nook...and so need to ...Oooh I have this book on my nook...and so need to read it.

My goal when writing this series was to give an emotional arc as big as the story arc, that is, Jackie isn't a quick fix. Getting from a bad emotional place back to something resembling healthy isn't an easy or short road, and given the time frame of the books, having her suddenly get better didn't work for me. It takes time, and Jackie, as you can see, is a little reluctant to work on herself, but I do hope you enjoy the books enough to keep reading and keep following her journey. She does start to heal. :)JDuncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00487305836910594252noreply@blogger.com
