The second book in E. L. James’s erotic trilogy gives a new turn to the love plot. Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey learn how to be together—overcoming difficulties and the things left unsaid. He has his own torments, she has hers. And each of them is afraid to share with the other their fears.
For honesty to finally “burst out” into freedom, the heroes have to experience unpleasant, even terrifying moments. And in the love-and-erotic context, the author skillfully introduces a detective line.
