Frayed by Kim Karr

Frayed by Kim Karr
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

3.5 Second Chance Stars

I love the Connections series, Karr is known for her slightly steamy reads with well-developed and somewhat damaged characters. Ben is not my favorite Hero and there were some ups and downs with Frayed.

Ben and Bell have a past. A steamy short lived past. Years later, they both meet up and form a no string attached relationship. Of course it’s hard for both of them to move forward.

Ben

We know Ben from the previous books and I have my issues with cheaters. It was nice to see his side of the story, but like I said, I have my personal issues with cheaters. Cheating aside I didn’t really have a huge problem with him. He’s a typical Hero, meaning, he’s attracted to Bell and is okay with what she is willing to dish.

Bell

Oh poor Bell. I’m not really fond of Bell, as a Heroine. I found her kind of weak and a little not trustworthy, but that makes a good book no? Bell is very attracted to Ben and liked him back then and like him now. She has a lot of past issues and she tries to overcome them.

Overall

The first half of the book is really light and there’s nice banter between Ben and Bell. We get both POV’s and both side of the stories of how they met. I liked this. The second half of the book kind of shifts and it gets a little deeper, this I liked too.

I think my problem is the tone and pace of Frayed. I felt like it moved slower than the previous books. It kind of took a while for Ben and Bell to make progress and when they did the problems were there, but not much. I guess I wanted a little more meat and a faster pace.

Overall, I got my connections fix .
