Book Review

The author did a good job of developing the characters and providing a not so typical journey to love and happiness. As expected, there was a quite a bit of angst and I wanted to say "get out of your head" and just ask questions. During these moments, the story lulled a little bit for me. I did like Emma and Sawyer, even though there was nothing wicked about him. The cast of supporting characters added a nice layer of humor, betrayal, and villainy to the novel. They provided the texture to the story.

The narrator was spot on and did a great job of bringing the characters life. The story moved well minus the few lulls and the production was flawless. I look forward to the next in the series.
