Holly is a highly reactive young woman, and while I admire her desire to make her career her top priority, it's curious that she doesn't seem to understand whenever Creighton gives so much of his own attention to his business dealings. I don't want to blame her immaturity on her age, because that really wouldn't be fair to women in their early twenties in general. Maybe it's her need to prove to her record company and to the music industry that she's got a voice and writing skills behind that pretty face of hers. I just felt that she demanded so much from Creighton but barely reciprocated. I mean, seriously, the man put his life on hold for her, and yet it never seemed enough. Let's not forget that she wasn't coerced into marrying Creighton, but she appears to be clueless and hasn't fully realized that marriage is about give and take on BOTH ends.

I'm really, really, REALLY hoping that Holly grows up in the third book and learns that walking slash running away never solves anything. For once, I'm actually hoping that Creighton refrains from doing what he did after discovering she left him to go on tour. Yes, he may be a domineering man, but it's clear that he's made concessions and changes in order to make his relationship with Holly work. I think it's high time that she carries her share of the burden that comes with a marriage. In two weeks' time, we'll finally get the conclusion to Creighton and Holly's love story and it's been an entertaining ride so far. The introduction of Creighton's first ex-wife has certainly made things interesting and I can't wait to see if she plays an even bigger role in the trilogy's final installment. I'm giving Dirty Pleasures four out of five stars. ♥
