This book is awful. The writing is bizarre. The characters are cardboard cutouts. The main character is so, so annoying. The plot is stale. The romance is terrible (odd for someone known for romance). The dialogue was utterly ridiculous and redundant.
This is the first book I've read by Nora Roberts and I have absolutely no interest in reading anything by her again.
This book needed an editor. It seems like a classic case of a famous name being attached to it and it being published just because of the famous name. If this book had been sent to a publisher without Roberts name on it, it would have been laughed at and put in the rejection pile.
Sorry, that was harsh. I wanted to DNF this book so bad but stuck it through. I wanted to give it a fair shake but it was a slough.
Don't read it.
