Midnight Sherbet by Emma Smith
2.75
As a fan of Emma Smith's first novel, 'Guided' I picked up Midnight Sherbet through Kindle Unlimited to explore another one of Smith's works. Though this was a different genre to Guided, I wanted to love this. I just couldn't.
I liked the characters, but I couldn't connect to them as a potential couple. The vibe was off, Remy was creepy, considering he'd saved Carmel from sexual assault and then decided that he needed to stalk her. The infatuation with Carmel was odd, to say the very least and I couldn't find myself rooting for them. I liked Remy until he became an absolute creep.
Carmel's arc was heartbreaking and yet I believe her trauma at the start of the story was overlooked as more than a plot device. There was a lot that could've been done but just fell flat to me.
