Drilled: A Novel by Opal Carew

3.0

This novella is not for the fainthearted. It’s very steamy. Like extremely steamy. If you prefer sex on the sweeter side of the spectrum, this might not be your cup of tea! The sex here is definitely a bit more ‘porn lit’ than ‘romance lit’. Given that it’s a novella, I think my primary issue with the book is that it was just too short. The book didn’t give the characters much time for development. It felt very forced at first because there was no development between them. It was hard for me to imagine that things developed as they did given how little there is about them as individuals. They just came to feel more cardboard than I’d like to have seen. It’s a really quick read … and very, very HOT. I just wish there were a bit more depth to the characters and the story which would have made this one feel more cohesive.

NOTE: Thank you to the publisher for providing me with a free ARC of this novel for an honest review.
