Customer Reviews

Sherry Sonnett's Restraint is not an exercise of such

At first Restraint seemed like just a ruthless sexual thriller. However, after finishing the book I continued to think about it and realized the message is quite an important one. Sonnett's character, Vega, says several times throughout the book that desire is her goal. Desire itself is the ultimate desire and left unchecked by morals and decency that raw desire, I don't think it even has to be sexual, can lead to the ultimate sin. I think Sonnett did an excellent job of getting the message across while creating an intense and thrilling book.
