When he encounters a graphologist who deduces people's lives and personalities from their handwriting with impossible accuracy, he needs to find out how the trick is done. Even if that involves spending more time with the intriguing, flirtatious Joel Wildsmith than feels quite safe.Joel's not an admirer of the police, but DS Fowler has the most irresistible handwriting he's ever seen. If the policeman's tests let him spend time unnerving the handsome copper, why not play along?But when Joel looks at a powerful man's handwriting and sees a murderer, the policeman and the graphologist are plunged into deadly danger. Their enemy will protect himself at any cost--unless the sparring pair can come together to prove his guilt and save each other.

Crime Novel in den 1920ern mit einem Polizisten und einem Graphologen, dessen Fähigkeiten einen Hauch Magie beinhalten. Solide Romanze, der Fall bleibt etwas dünn, die Charaktere sind toll.

Joa

Hat mich irgendwie nicht abgeholt. Weder die Charakter noch die Story. Das Buch an sich war nicht schlecht, aber der Fall hat ewig gebraucht bis er losging und wurde irgendwie so oberflächlich behandelt. Auch die Charakter hatten irgendwie zu wenig Zeit miteinander und haben gefühlt mehr nebeneinanderher existiert. Dennoch war die Romanze sehr süß. Ich hätte gerne mehr von Joel’s Fähigkeiten gewesehen. Ich hatte ein paar Lacher und Schmutzler und es war ein solides Buch. Gefühl – Was ist das erste Gefühl, nachdem du das Buch beendet hast? Zufrieden - Neutral Unterhaltungswert & Pacing Solide Charaktere & Originalität Standard Empfehlung Kann man machen.

Please, just a proper epilogue, and this would have concluded everything perfectly. I really like the idea, and that Joel possesses such an ability. I also like how Aaron mistrusted him at first, but even though it went against everything he believed, he gave him a chance and approached the situation very openly. Their relationship progressed really well because of that. The thing is, Joel is a pissy brat ... and I am very sensitive about brats. So, while I did like his character and especially how he didn't give up at the end and was like, "Ey, Aaron, screw you, we are seeing this through," I was confused by how he kept pushing for sex in between. Aaron was worried about his job, and they had only been together once, met again, and then you were so pissy that he didn't want to go to your place? And he even said, "Hey, it’s not just about sex; I just wanted to spend time with you, and I like your company"-hello, that's a total green flag valuing quality time! So, even if you are horny, I can't understand that. Also, the later explanation that they were being followed and Aaron couldn't go with him... Haaaa? That doesn't change the fact that it would have been totally okay if he had just wanted to spend non-sexual time with him. So, yeah, that confused me and kind of ruined the mood. In their dynamic, I loved that Aaron, the buff policeman, is such an inexperienced good boy sub, and yesss, I love that dynamic! So, yeah, the scenes we got were good, and the end just hinted at more, which is okay, but I wouldn't have said no to one last detailed smut scene. Regarding the ability and the drama: I wished his ability had been included a bit more to solve everything. Somehow, the whole thing was only resolved with the old woman's three months of records, which Joel got just because he was nice to her and flattered her a bit. That was too easy. Then, of course, he didn't fall for the trap at the end because he could feel Aaron's emotions and the danger through the message, but still, that was somehow too little (even though it definitely made the ending better). All in all, a good idea... but somehow a bit incomplete, and their emotional drama was a bit of a mess.
