Thanks for the review. Well, at least it was the book and not the author you didn’t like.

Honest review, Lynette. I will hang in there with a book hoping it will get better. Luckily many do. Lately, however, it has been the ending of books that fall apart. It is sad when a book has a good author, good characters, good scenes, but they don’t pull together as a tight whole.

I hate books that really drags in the beginning because then I never really finish the book. I’m glad I read this review!:)

Good review Lynette! Sorry that the book was not as good as you would have liked. I agree with you a 100% with the fact that in today’s economy we want to spend money on books that we know we are going to enjoy. Like yourself, I am big on re-reading a book. Lol. I also refer books to people. So I want to spend money on a book that is worth it.

@Noelle I just put a request in for that book at my library. I didn’t know she had a nice back list. I’m going to try some of them. I think I’d like another one of hers better. BTW, was really bummed that I didn’t win your book!

Nice review Lynette! I had not come across this one in my possibles before. Will have to consider reading…or maybe I will wait for the next one.

I love how honest you are in your review! Like you, great writing will often keep me reading longer even when I find the story to be frustrating. I’ve never read this author but I don’t think I’ll start with this book.

Very good review. I like the way you wrote it into different parts.
I haven’t read this one but I guess some books work for you and some others…don’t

Lynette if you do try another Linden book I recommend A Rake’s Guide to Seduction. I won an ARC and reviewed it on my blog way back when.

Although the ending had this out of the blue plot point that I didn’t think it needed, it was a wonderful read.
