Reviewer’s Thoughts

I have read some of Lora Leigh’s books in the past and I’ve really enjoyed them. I took a chance on Live Wire and I found that this story was just okay. While I have not read the previous books in the series, I found that it didn’t make a difference because of the issues I had while reading. I realize Jordan and Tehya seemed to have a love/hate relationship but the whole time they were together felt like a roller coaster ride. They got together and had sex then pushed each other away and it really felt quite jerky all every time they did it.

The story was okay but it felt like it could be shortened a bit. I found myself skipping parts that didn’t hold my interest and I couldn’t connect with the story or the characters that well. This may be a good read for someone else, but it just wasn’t for me.
