I wonder if Ms Laurens is payed by word or if she just buys her adjectives in bulk. If something is shared, it does not need to be "shared, mutual, joint". And there really is no need to use up three pages describing a kiss.
As for the storyline, it took the main characters 300 pages more than it took me to figure out where the treasure was hidden. Ah well, at least they had a lot of steamy encounters to fill the their time with while they searched.
All in all, I liked the story, but it would have benefited from being told in half the number of pages and it wouldn´t have hurt to let the romance between the main characters develop quite a bit slower.
