If you're in the mood for a kind of sappy, kind of predictable, kind of too perfect love story, this is the book for you. Sometimes you just need something like that.

While I am rating this 5 stars, I would NOT recommend it! This book is terrible, but I loved it when I was a 15 year-old Mormon, and the nostalgia of it made me love it still. Lots of SA handled terribly, patriarchic bullshit abounds, and the glorification of a rapist who destroyed multiple lives is absolutely ridiculous. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone except ex-Mormons who read and loved it before.

This book is very dramatic, but it kept me wanting to see what would happen next. So all in all really good book!!

Though it's definitely a bit cheesy like most Anita Stansfield books, it is one of my favorites. Clean, cute, and LDS.

This book was wonderful. I loved the depth of emotions that the characters showed and the development that they all went through. This book was very touching and I learned a lot from it.

This novel was ok for me. Perhaps I’d have a better review if I had not just read a brain-candy romance prior to this. This book was long and overly predictable. One character in particular was doomed from the first moment he walked onto the page. Yet, being predictable is not always a blemish for a novel—don’t we want the guy to always get the girl? It’s the journey of the novel that should be worth the read—not the destination. I found myself a third of the way through the novel ticked off—the author was trying too hard to make me swoon. Plus, the inner conflict of these characters is so formulaic. This is empty calorie reading here—think candy corn—I’m not even sure I like candy corn. :-)
