At least not at the rate they occur in the bookBoyLazy wrote:Unnatural is the right word.

But the number of encounters she was having got to the point where it was almost comical. Suddenly everyone she had met wanted to have sex with her. It was unrealistic and the scenes weren't even written very well. This isn't an exact quote because I didn't write it down, but one of the characters says to Jennifer something like "okay, I think we should have sex now" kind of just out of nowhere. The scenes just didn't flow naturally and I feel like some of them were added for shock value more than anything else.

This is felt by most of us as well. It's some good feedback for the book to improve.

Rightly said, it should always have other things happening or it should take the story forward.

I was expecting there to be explicit scenes also, because I did read the disclaimer, just not so many. The scenes also didn’t add anything to the plot, or drive the story forward.Whitney Marchelle wrote: ↑16 Nov 2017, 14:53 Alot of explicit scenes don't bother me, if that's what i'm expecting going into the book. I get my wine and my snuggle and get ready to be entertained! If I'm expecting there to really be plot, and depth and dynamic, than the amount of scenes would have been too much. I was expecting explicit scenes since it gave that disclaimer on the description on amazon, so I kind of knew what i was getting into.

Without any motive to take the story ahead, it means nothing.

The initial premise wasn’t boring, but the plot didn’t go very far. It was kind of taken over with the out-of-place sex scenes.
