Keep in mind, I haven't read it yet, and I got that impression
from several people on LJ.  Particularly setissma, though you
won't find it in her journal, it was a long IM conversation.

Several of my friends who are confirmed lovers of UST told me
that it hit that kink particularly well.  As a general rule,
these people and I do not like the same books equally well.  A
number of people had commented to me that they didn't think it
was my sort of story because it was so much THEIR sort of story.
It's Lois, so I'll read it :) but I wasn't in the same mad rush
to get it that I was with Hallowed Hunt, which was very much my
sort of story.  Um, if that makes any sense.
