His Lady Smuggler by Tamara GillMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
His Lady Smuggler started off well for me, it had me curious to see how the storyline would play out, but the deeper into the story I got, the less I was enjoying it. It wasn’t a bad read, it simply felt rushed to me. I feel this is one of those short stories that would have done much better as a full-length novel, allowing us to see more of the elements involved.
With this one, there was a lot of possibility. I was pulled right into the character’s stories, excited to see all the elements that would come into play. The first couple of chapters were a lot of fun, providing details that I wanted to see more of. Then, everything started to happen. There were elements that seemed to come out of nowhere, making sense in the story but without enough build-up. Things played out in an interesting way, but I wasn’t given enough detail to be completely satisfied.
As my first Tamara Gill read, His Lady Smuggler has left me curious about the author’s other work. At the same time, it was not enough to push the author’s work to the top of my to-read list.
