এই বইটি সম্পর্কে সবচেয়ে আশ্চর্যজনক বিষয়টি হ'ল এটি একটি সাদা পুরুষ লিখেছেন যিনি একজন জাপানী মহিলার মাথায় usুকে পড়ে এবং আমাদের বিশ্বাস করতে বাধ্য করে। আমরা জাপানি সংস্কৃতি এবং গিশার ইতিহাস এবং traditionতিহ্য সম্পর্কে অনেক কিছু শিখি। এটি একটি মানব স্বার্থের গল্পও রয়েছে যা শুরু থেকেই আমাদের আগ্রহকে আকর্ষণ করে যখন তরুণ বোনদের নির্মমভাবে তাদের বাড়ি থেকে নেওয়া হয় এবং দুটি পৃথক গিশা বাড়িতে বিক্রি করা হয়। ক্যাথি স্মোলস্কি

As a huge fan of Megan Hart's,I was really looking forward to this short story from her. After it taking me only about 45 minutes to read it from beginning to end, I have to say it fell a little flat for me. Kendall Frasier has been forced by the FBI to take a mandatory two weeks off after she witnesses the accidental shooting of her partner. Kendall joins a dozen or more FBI agents on a trip to an exotic island where they are to engage in physical examinations, therapy sessions, and pure relaxation. She is furious to find out that Agent Zane Vincent, the man responsible for killing her partner, has also been made to go on this trip. Kendall cannot deny the attraction that she feels towards Zane and as luck would have it, the two of them end of sharing a cottage together. I love the way that Megan Hart writes her characters. Her characters are so full of realistic emotions and feelings that you feel like you are reading a story about someone you know personally. No detail is left out when she sets the stage for her characters and it's very easy to become attached to them. Friendly Fire was no exception. I immediately felt pain for Kendall as she struggled with her true feelings regarding her partners' death as well as with Zane and the demons he had to deal with at being the cause of such a tragedy. The buildup of sexual tension between Zane and Kendall is sizzling, when it came down to them finally being together, it was WAY too quick. I wanted more! It seemed after the two of them finally gave in to their mutual attraction, that everything was rushed along and that part definitely fell flat for me. Having said that, I realize that this is a short story, not a full length novel and length limitations may apply, but still, I missed the detailed love scenes. Overall, this was a decent read and I still am a faithful fan of Megan Hart's and look forward to reading many more of her stories! Three and a half stars. This book was supplied to me via NetGalley
