Glow by beth kery5/21/2023 Agent: Laura Bradford, Bradford Literary Agency. Will Dylan be able to come to her rescue? Will Alice muster the emotional strength to assume her role as heir to the Durand Enterprises fortune? It's hard to find any reason to care. When someone from Alice's dark past emerges to threaten her life, the tension amps up but is still underwhelming. Alice Reed never dreamed she’d escape the stigma of her disturbing past. As their clandestine affair bounces between tiptoeing over Alice's delicate psyche and diving into raw, brutal sex, the story's slender thread of credibility frays even further. From the New York Times bestselling author of Because You Are Mine, When I’m With You, and The Affair comes the second novel in the Glimmer and Glow series. Of course, that ostensible fragility doesn't stop him from getting romantically involved with her. Dylan, CEO of Durand Enterprises, is dead certain that Alice, one of his employees, is the company founder's long-lost daughter, but he feels that Alice is too emotionally fragile to deal with the truth. They are stick figures skittering over the slick surface of a shallow, meandering plot interspersed with Alice's hazy flashbacks of a grim past. In Kery's highly erotic but deeply unsatisfying sequel to Glimmer, main characters Alice Reed and Dylan Fall remain disappointingly two-dimensional.
