I picked this up because I fancied reading an independently published adult romance, and I'd seen a few friends reading it recently. (Also the cover is just lovely.) But sadly, I was pretty disappointed. I found the pacing slow and the characters quite bland. There was one great spicy scene and one great angsty scene, but apart from that I spent a lot of this book feeling bored and disconnected. Perhaps it's just me and I wasn't in the headspace for a slow-paced, leisurely romance, but I'm not sure I'll be picking up the rest of the books in the series.
