In my humble opinion, writers can be divided into two basic camps. Those whose first books should have been their last, because it was their best. And those who continue to grow and improve.
There may be a few authors who write a brilliant debut, tank with the next title, and then redeem themselves with magnificent third book. I can’t think of any offhand and it’s unlikely I’ll ever find them, because a disappointing second book is enough to put me off an author permanently.
I like Lora Leigh’s characters and her story choices–I’ve been less enchanted with her craft, plots, and repetition. But, Ms. Leigh is improving. The most recent book of hers that I read–Coyote’s Mate was flat out wonderful, I stayed up too late reading, and got misty eyed more than once.
Was it just me, or was this the best breed story so far?
