thenia 's review for:
Winning the Wallflower
by Eloisa James
The first part was great, with clues for us to figure out what makes our heroes tick and the reasons for the change in their lives and generally getting to know them.
I could understand where Lucy came from up to a point, being tall myself, and I enjoyed seeing her finally assert herself and honestly speak her mind. Cyrus lives his life following his strict plans, but this time, he realizes planning will not get him what he wants.
Lucy and Cyrus both are likable characters, especially when they get together and set each other straight. They clash and then things change and the story feels like it's missing a few chapters - the ones showing those two reaching the point of head-over-heels love from their respective starting points.
I liked the story, but it was a bit rushed towards the end, as tends to be the case with short stories.
