Tere Michaels

Ero pronta a scrivere una recensione assai entusiasta su questo romanzo così tenero e dolce. Sul serio. Poi sono arrivata al finale, o almeno all’ultimo quarto di romanzo, nel quale Tere Michaels è diventata Mr. Hyde e ha fatto un casino con i suoi personaggi.

Senza fare spoiler, l’ultima parte di Fedeltà e fiducia è l’esempio lampante di come si possa scrivere un romanzo squilibrato: molta enfasi posta nelle fasi iniziali della storia tra Evan e Matt e poca attenzione dedicata all’epilogo.

Duty & Devotion by Tere Michaels
Faith, Love, and Devotion series #3. M-M contemporary romance.

Snowmageddon by Tere Michaels
Broadway or Bust series #1. Fictional holiday novella. LGBTQ+. For anyone that loves musicals.
Luca is feeling down and lost in his early 50’s. He was an actor, singer and dancer turned Director of Broadway musicals. He doesn’t know what his next job will be and isn’t feeling inspired by anything. A chance phone call from a former co-worker has Luca opening a famous home he owns to a small, private school music group of teens. A snowstorm has them all hunkered down in the house for the day. What’s a group of theatre lovers do, but sing Broadway tunes?

More emotional than expected, this first in series book seems to be just a day in New York, but blows you away with depth and a promise of a brighter future.
It’s a spin off of the characters from the authors backlist and a tribute to musical theater.
Ends a bit abruptly and saves it a bit with the epilogue. Its clear there is more to follow.… (más)
