Erotica with thin plot and ridiculous characters. They look at each in a coffee shop and it's love/lust/sex at first sight. Katalina treats Henley like he's her soulmate to the point where she gets stuck in the stairwell (after ignoring the introduction saying they're emergency only and alarmed) and Henley comes to get her and Camille (who never even gets introduced) out and she jumps on him saying he rescued her. I mean they were in the stairwell for like five minutes. Very dramatic and over the top. She annoyed me. Katalina acted like a little girl the majority of the time - she has major daddy issues - and the rest of the time like an idiot. Well and a bit like a stalker. The sex happens immediately and continuously and publicly.

But here's my biggest issue. The dad's death. Okay he's dead and she misses him - but I found the constant mentions of him wrong. Because the whole book is driven by sex and her dad. Yeah I think you can see the problem. Like she has her dad's shirt hanging in the wardrobe of her hotel room. Fine. But then she makes a point of saying that Henley's shirt hangs next to that. And her suit next to both and it's like they're in some weird threesome.

The storyline is very weak but if you're only reading for the sex then sure it's great. There's a few funny lines and it's entertaining enough bar a few of the problems to do with what I mentioned under the spoiler. I just prefer more plot and character development.
