A nice, quick and enjoyable read. I should say that I shouldn't really class this short story as a 'romance' as it is more of a dose of 'smut'...but good smut I might add.
It outlines the bully/victim relationship with a splash of attraction and lust leaving the reader wanting more. In my personal opinion I can not stand bullies and people who abuse others so it makes me cringe a bit when these people are so easily forgiven. Even so I would definitely consider reading the possible sequel.

"As anyone who has ever picked up a pair of knitting needles can attest to, knitting is a laborious love. When a pair of socks can take weeks to knit, and a blanket months (or even years), there’s something slightly sacrilegious about a book of shorts about knitting. But somehow these writers capture the essence of hours spent stitching, without the expected verbose prose. The third story written by Andre Dubus III is a particular favorite of mine — capturing both the historical and personal legacy of knitting in a short heartfelt gem."

Haha! I love this series! I need more already!

I am so intrigued as to where the rest of this series will go, though. Who's the guy who transports her back in time? Why doesn't she remember things that happen when she does go back in time? Is she living some sort of unknown double life?

So happy to see Harry in this! I love him and Sam together.

I love that considering how short this is, that you get a full, fun, story that's a perfect addition to the series.

2.5 stars.

It was quite short and sweet but I didn't really feel any connection to the story or the characters and I'm not sure why.

The writing was also a little too stilted/formal for me at times too, so I kept putting me kindle down to do something else and coming back to it after a while.

I'm also not really feeling many contemporary romances that aren't New Adult at the minute, so at a later time I might give this another read and my rating may change.

This novel is in every way original, thrilling and compelling. The issues of morality, ethics, politics and self-interest come across clearly and are thought about long after the book has been read. The fact that this novel can accomplish all that while delivering a truly interesting and plausible concept in a page turner is nothing short of genius. While the character development may be a little one dimensional and the writing stilted and trite at times the plot propels this story forward much like an uncontrollable self-driving car.
