3.0
I am a fan of historical fiction set in the early to mid 1900s and it was refreshing to find a novel set in that time period that wasn't about either World War. I will be honest and say that I kind of skimmed over the first half, reading but not really retaining much of it. Eventually I did find myself being drawn in and slowing myself down to take everything in. I don't really have much to say about the first half of the book because of that.
There was a lot going on in the latter half of the book and other than a few unresolved issues, I enjoyed it. My initial thought was to rate this four stars but once I thought about the fact that I barely read the first half of the book, I had to knock it down to three. Overall it was a good read and I will be passing my copy along to someone else now that I have finished.

When things between Dez and Jacob started to cross the line is when I think I started paying more attention, and once that happened it seemed like the book finally picked up.There was a lot going on in the latter half of the book and other than a few unresolved issues, I enjoyed it.
