A very promising future as a famous writer

Allen Longstreet's THE GAMBIT is a fast-paced novel full of political intrigue as well as romance and a fascinating plot. As one who is not a big fan of anything political (that's why I only gave it 3 stars--don't hate), it took some doing to get me into this story. Thankfully, it's a really good story with not a LOT of politics. As the back of the book states, 7 different characters tell this inter-twining story, making it more interesting than your average book told from just one character's point-of-view. I admit that I would like to know more of what happened to the other characters in the story beyond Rachel--and Owen. Grey, in particular, is an absolutely fascinating character. If Longstreet chooses to do a sequel to THE GAMBIT, I truly hope he chooses Grey as his major protagonist! 

Then again, I do need an idea for National Novel Writing Month 2015 (NaNoWriMo) that begins in about two weeks....! :)

I also need to say that as his first major published novel, Longstreet demonstrates a wonderful, successful future career as a popular--by popular, I mean famous--author. I can't wait to see what he writes next!!! And next....and next.....
