This took a little while for me to get into and I'm not sure if it was all of the legal talk or if I just didn't care that much about the legal aspect. I also didn't really care about the characters and I especially didn't care for the romance. But I didn't really enjoy the mystery/thriller aspect of it.
I think I would have rated this higher if I hadn't listened to the audiobook. I didn't like the way that the narrator put on accents for certain characters. But I would recommend to people who enjoy a sort of romantic suspense story
