Review: Hell Cop

Hell Cop by Astrid Amara
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

It's not a secret that most of the M/M "erotica" (which is just a nice word for "porn" in this context) is written mostly by women and for women. And Hell Cop is no exception. It's also wide known that women tend to get attached to characters they read about. I enjoyed the first part of the book, Next of Kin, about Jay and Brian, but when I turned the page and saw Michael Gold adjusting his pack I closed the book with an intension to never open it again. And that was back in December, in other words 10 months ago. I did eventually find it among my Kindle books and gave it a second chance. That's when I discovered that, though the three chapters are written by three different authors and about three different couples, the universe is the same down to details, the style is same, as well as character types and sexual fantasies. I wouldn't know it's three authors if not told. All in all, it's a solid example of the genre, even if the erotic part is a little mundane and not exciting enough.
Surprisingly, the second book in the series is the same threesome, but I doubt I'll be reading it - books about problems in relationships are very rarely good and never as good as those romantic accounts of falling in love.
