Elaine White's Life in Books

The Author

 

 

Elaine White is the author of multi-genre MM romance, celebrating 'love is love' and offering diversity in both genre and character within her stories.

Growing up in a small town and fighting cancer in her early teens taught her that life is short and dreams should be pursued. She lives vicariously through her independent, and often hellion characters, exploring all possibilities within the romantic universe.

The Winner of two Watty Awards – Collector's Dream (An Unpredictable Life) and Hidden Gem (Faithfully) – and an Honourable Mention in 2016's Rainbow Awards (A Royal Craving) Elaine is a self-professed geek, reading addict, and a romantic at heart.

 

The Reviewer

 

I’m an author and reader, who just can’t get away from books. I discovered the MM genre a few years ago and became addicted.

This, by far, was not my cup of tea. I appreciated where it was trying to go and the basic idea of the story, but it just didn’t pull together for me. The dialogue was very simplistic, very basic and didn’t really help us settle in the story or progress the plot. It was basically all descriptive work pushing the plot along, with excessive language, sex, nudity and references to rape that just dragged the story down. Too much emphasis was put on Gil’s role, rather than what Raja was trying to do.

Great artwork, but confusing to read, with no sense of time or place and not enough plot. Too dark, too gross and not enough substance for my liking.
